Details of Disappearance

Baum was last seen after being dropped off at her estranged boyfriend's home in the 2500 block of Connecticut Street in Gary, Indiana on October 10, 2024. She didn't have a working phone at the time of her disappearance but was supposed to activate one that day. She has never been heard from again. Relatives reported her missing on October 28.

An extensive search has turned up no sign of Baum or the baby she was about to give birth to, and her family believes she and her baby are in danger. The boyfriend she was visiting that day is the baby's father; he was arrested on unrelated charges later the same month she went missing. Baum's case remains unsolved.
