	I saw the episode on CRT TV for Haunting Evidence.  Thank you for sharing
	Tara with all of us.  It is very sad to know that she was unable to fulfill
	her dreams and live out her plans.  I hope that the psychic investigators
	were able to give the Athens Police Dept. some clues so that they can look
	closer at the evidence they already have against the suspect list they
	already have and this family gets closure.  They are all in my prayers.
	Thanks again

	I just wanted to say that I am so very sorry for your lost. I watched the episode on
	Court TV and felt a strong sence to come to Tara's website. This is the first I have
	heard about Tara Bakers story. And although I did not know her, I feel such an
	emptiness inside after hearing her story. I just wanted you to know there is power
	in prayer and I will be praying that they catch Tara'a murderer. I have never
	followed up on anything like this before and I dont understand why I feel so drawn
	to Tara's story. Perhaps it is because I have a young beautiful daughter and If
	something happened to her I would want people to remember her and to pray that
	justice would be served. I hope you can find some peace in knowing that she is still
	being prayed for. I pray that God will bless your family and give you the answers
	that you need to find some peace in your lives.

	God Bless You All.
	Sincerely,

	Hello,
	I, like so many others, I am sure... just watched the Haunting Evidence 
	episode. I was so struck and saddened by it.
	Tara was born the same day/year as my daughter, Jessica. So many thoughts 
	are running through my head... I don't want to say something unintentionally 
	thoughtless. My heart breaks for you. I cannot imagine life without my 
	daughter and how it would effect you each and  everyday.
	I am so hoping the show will help in apprehending the person who did this.  
	I know there are no words to comfort, even now, but... may God be and stay 
	with you always and I am sure Tara is so blessed.
	Mean while... I would like to share my daughter with you (if you  like).
	She has taken after me (I am a long time Horse trainer) and lives  in 
	Scottsdale Az. I am in Temecula, CA.  She is a wonderful, caring  and giving person 
	as is her husband, David. Her business is:

	Love and good wishes to you all,

	Greetings:

	It seems clear from the psychics' comments that your next step should
	be to request copies of Tara's bank statements (definitely including 
	copies of ALL of canceled checks) and credit card statements for
	the last six months. Your job would be to review them with a fine-toothed 
	comb to see if any checks were made out to any males close to her age 
	and also to see if any out-of-the-ordinary credit card purchases (of items 
	that perhaps only a male would use) were made.

	Per the psychics' comments, Tara and her killer obviously knew each other.
	Perhaps they dated briefly at one time or at least had a friendship of some 
	type... a relationship that made her amenable to lending him money or paying 
	for items on his behalf. He's passive, said the psychics, until that day he 
	went off the deep end. So he may be someone that Tara's friends know but 
	would never suspect.

	Male DNA on the windows, the doorknobs (if any still remain from the fire)
	or other items in the police's possession hopefully will break the case. 

	You likely believe in psychics. You're right to do so. Our brains 
	filter reality to a narrow stream; those who suffer from epilepsy, autism
	and schizophrenia are in touch with a greater reality but can't control
	it. Those who are able to stay grounded in the "normal" world yet still
	tap into a reality where time and space are all "here and now" are 
	those we call psychics. This ability is within the reach of all of us.

	Best wishes to you on resolving this case.

	  I don't know any of Tara's family but I was a classmate of Tara's at Georgia
	College. It is hard to believe it has been five years since the tragic news spread
	through the grapevine of college friends. We were all shocked. The truest words I
	ever heard spoken about Tara were at her funeral. Some said "Tara was the kind of
	person who whenever she talked to you she made you feel like you were her best
	friend". That is the best way I have ever heard her described. I wasn't in her
	closest circle of friends but you would never know it by the way she acted.
   
	  My last memory of Tara was at the GA/FL game in Jacksonville. I ran into her on a
	ramp going into the stadium and she gave me a big bear hug. Who would have thought
	she only had a few more months to live. I think about her often but especially
	every year when I attend this game. I know words on a computer are no real comfort
	for a family that deals with this unimaginable pain but if there one thing I could
	testify to about Tara, it was that she loved her family. I remember chatting
	before class and listening brag about her brother and sister. You could see how it
	was more than just typical sibling love. This website is a beautiful tribute to a
	truly beautiful girl. I look forward to justice being served.

	Matthew I went to the memorial yesterday and I truly felt Lindsay and
	Virginia's pain for the first time. I see it everyday but yesterday was  different.
	I felt Tara around me the whole time I was there. Even though I did  not have
	the honor and privilege of knowing her in life, I know her now. I want  you
	and the rest of the family to know that I will be there for you all.  Anything
	you guys need please let me know. I took a balloon down to the cemetery  last 
	night and left it on the grave.  I felt like Tara would have liked  that. I 
	will keep you all in my prayers and thoughts. You guys are like my own  family
	and that is why I am willing to help. I love you all very much.
	Love 
	Sherri

	Please know that our group is thinking of Tara today and again tomorrow. We are
	running her photo on Carrie's forum to remember her. May God bless you all as you
	continue to wait for answers. Surely SOON you'll have the person responsible for
	this horrible crime.

		I've known Tara since she was 4 years old. I worked for her mother at the dry-cleaners.
	Tara could run into the building while we were all hard at work and just change the entire atmosphere.
	She was so bright and happy, all her life. She had a smile that could brighten the darkest room.
	That's what I miss most about her, that beautiful smile.
		Love,

	  I have wanted to write to you for days, but it’s so difficult to find the right
	words. I know that nothing I can write will lessen the pain, but I just want to
	say how I feel.
	  I was so deeply sorry and shocked to read about what happen to Tara. I can only
	imagine how difficult this must have been for you. I don’t have words to express
	how I’m feeling right now. I am so sorry and I want to share my very deep
	sympathy. E-mail is such a poor format for this, but I just want you to know that
	I am out here and I care.
	  I never met Tara, but I really wish I would. She was a such a wonderful person! I
	want you to know that I pray for you and I pray for Tara! My belief is that she
	will always be alive in your memories, watching over you from Heaven!
	  I am so many miles away right now, but my heart will always be with you!
	  May God help you cherish your loved one in you heart forever!
	  Yours sincerely,
	  Liliana

	It is 3:30 am on December 23,2005 and I just watched the segment on Tara, I hope
	that the program helps to find her murderer.  
   
	  I watch programs like this all the time and wanted to suggest you might contact
	A&E televisions Cold Case Files.  Wonderful Show. 
   
	  I had a nephew that was murdered 11 years ago and it still has not been solved but
	everyday I pray that the person or persons responsible live through a personal
	hell of their own , knowing they took a young father away from his baby that will
	never know him and the goodness that was in his heart.  I truly feel your pain and
	will keep you in my prayers also.
   
	  sincerely

	Matt:
	I was thinking of Tara today after serving on jury duty and decided to visit
	the site I hadn't been to in a long while.  I tend to think of Tara whenever
	I see a judge or the legal process in action, because I knew how much
	justice and her dream of becoming a judge meant to her. I can't believe it
	has been 4 years! Tara was an amazing person and is well represented here on
	this site - the tributes, photos, stories, etc. are overwhelming.  I pray to
	God that something can be done to solve this tragedy we all encountered
	which resulted in someone taking the life of our beloved Tara.  Tara
	introduced my husband and I through mutual friends while she and I were
	friends in Athens (and later roommates when this tragedy occurred), which is
	so very special to us both. We honored her in our wedding three years ago
	and also left my bridal bouquet on her grave for her.  I remember her joking
	that we had her to thank if we ever got married. And we did!  Unfortunately,
	she wasn't there that special day I walked down the aisle.  She was a
	wonderful person - a friend that was very true and honest to her word!
	Please let the entire family know that we are constantly thinking of them
	and praying that justice will prevail! We will never forget her! Thanks for
	publishing this site and keeping it updated!
	Love,
	Jeff and Valery (Lang) Hall

	How anyone can do such a terrible thing is beyond any normal human being but justice
	will be served from the heavens and the person responsible
	will live in torment for a eternity. DAVID

	 I am an Athens resident, a teacher, and the mother of two young girls. I
	can't imagine the pain of losing a child in such a terrible way - Tara was a
	bright, beautiful girl with the promise of a wonderful life. My thoughts
	and prayers are with your family. Tara, and your family, deserve justice for
	this unimaginable crime.

	 I have read all of the newspaper articles and have seen the laptop computer
	mentioned in most of them. I am not very familiar with brands and types of
	computers - I am sure there are many of us computer dummies! I have often
	thought...if a photograph of the actual type/year of laptop could be
	generated to the public, perhaps it could jog a memory or two. I think I
	recall some type of description of the laptop in the paper, but that doesn't
	mean anything to me - I have to see a picture. I know this could provide
	too many leads, but too many leads are better than no leads.

	Again, I am sorry for your loss. This story is as heartbreaking to me now,
	as it was years ago.

	Sincerely, Libby
