Baylee Cheyanne Despot, 20, was last seen on April 24, 2018, in Bakersfield, California. Her disappearance is part of a cluster of linked cases called the Bakersfield 3, which also involves Micah Holsonbake and James Kulstad. Despot’s life before she vanished included a brief marriage that ended in 2017, new friends, drug involvement, and moving in with boyfriend Matthew Queen. She and Queen were arrested on weapons charges in the months before she went missing.

Authorities have tied Despot to the investigation into Holsonbake’s death; she has been charged in connection with his alleged torture and murder despite being missing. Reports say family members thought she may have been trying to leave Queen when she disappeared, and there were unconfirmed reports she might have been pregnant. Investigators continue to seek her and she has an outstanding warrant related to Holsonbake’s murder. What information do readers have about Baylee’s movements or contacts in Bakersfield around April 2018?
