Lindsay Baum disappeared last year while walking home from a friend’s house. The 11-year-old hasn’t been seen since. But now detectives are focusing on an unnamed 47-year-old man who lives on the route Baum would have taken back to her house. Police already talked to him once shortly after the disappearance. But something about his story isn’t adding up.
