    Details of Disappearance

    Baird was last seen at the Fina gas station in the 200 block of south Highway 89 in East Layton, Utah on July 4, 1975. She was employed there as a service station attendant. A police officer on patrol saw her there, and at 5:30 p.m., less than fifteen minutes later, she was discovered missing. Her purse and car were left at the station. Baird left behind a four-year-old son She was the mother of a four-year-old son and it is unlikely that she would have willingly left of her own free will.

    Authorities believe Baird was a victim of the serial killer Theodore Robert "Ted" Bundy, who was executed in Florida in 1989. He was convicted of several murders and is suspected in scores more, including in the disappearances of Ann Marie Burr, Lynette Culver, Vicki Hollar, Rita Jolly, Debra Kent, Donna Manson, Denise Oliverson, Nancy Wilcox and other young women. The women continue to be listed as missing persons. Their remains have never been recovered.
