Mother of Elijah Vue Devastated After Identification of Son's Remains

Murder In The Morning | Daily True Crime News

The mother of Elijah Vue, Katrina Baur, is grappling with heartbreak after her son’s remains were identified. In a statement released through her attorney, Amber Gratz, Baur expressed her devastation upon learning the news. “Katrina Baur is devastated by the most recent news, identifying the remains found as Elijah. She had continued to have hope that her little boy would be found alive. At this time, she is mourning the loss of her son,” Gratz stated in an email to Action 2 News.
The Two Rivers Police confirmed last week that the human remains found on private property belonged to the missing child, Elijah Vue. The discovery was made by a hunter who was preparing his land for the upcoming hunting season. The remains were located approximately three miles northwest of where Elijah was originally reported missing.
Baur remains in custody, facing serious charges of child neglect, which includes accusations of abusing Elijah. Her boyfriend, Jesse Vang, reported Elijah missing on February 20 while the boy was in his care. A criminal complaint indicates that Elijah was with Vang as a disciplinary measure for “bad behavior.” Baur, originally from Wisconsin Dells, allegedly wanted Vang to teach her 3-year-old son “to be a man.”
Both Baur and Vang have pleaded not guilty to felony child neglect charges. In addition to these allegations, Baur faces a charge of obstructing police. Their cases are currently progressing through the judicial system. Baur has made several attempts to have her bond reduced; however, those requests have been denied. Last month, a judge did modify her bond to allow for supervised contact with her children, which highlights ongoing concerns about the family's situation.
The tragic discovery of Elijah’s remains has left the community and family reeling, and Baur's upcoming court appearance in October will be closely monitored as the legal proceedings continue. The investigation surrounding Elijah Vue’s case remains active, with the community seeking answers and justice for the young boy.
