WISCONSIN RAPIDS, Wis. (Crime Library) — The last two weeks have been hard on Scott Harm.
After all, it would be tough enough under the best of circumstances for any 43-year-old man to care for a four-month old baby girl, even one as precocious as Harm's granddaughter Vegas, who has been cutting a tooth and learning to crawl all at the same time.
And while those little milestones in Vegas' life might otherwise be cause for celebration, there's something bittersweet about them now because her mother, Diedre Harm is not there to see them.
"It's hard," Scott Harm told Crime Library. For the past two weeks, Scott Harm and a phalanx of close friends of his daughter have been trying to focus the public's attention on Diedre Harm's disappearance. They've been pounding the pavement near the downtown Wisconsin Rapids bars where she was last seen on June 10, and have been working as closely as possible with the local police department to find her. So far, authorities have no clue as to the 21-year-old mother's whereabouts or her fate.

But as each day passes, those closest to her, say it becomes increasingly unlikely that the young woman, by all accounts a dedicated mother who had just that day signed a lease on a new apartment, would have simply vanished on her own.
