Adam Baird

Wondery
About this episode

On March 31, 2019, in the far northern part of Tennessee, 33-year-old Adam Baird was seen for the last time in rural Campbell County. He had been behaving oddly that day and for several days prior. His family didn’t know what was happening, but they had a couple of clues. Adam wanted to reconnect with his wife, despite their separation several months prior, and he wanted to regain custody of their children, but he was struggling. No one knew how severe his struggles were until he was gone. There was no way for his family to know that when they saw him take off in his mom’s car headed to an unknown destination, they’d never see him again. 

If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Adam Baird, please call the Campbell County Sheriff’s Office Tipline at 423-566-3784.
