North Port police spokesperson Josh Taylor confirmed to PEOPLE that officials had in fact spoken with Baker “and have collected her information.”
In the TikTok video, Baker claimed that Laundrie approached the couple in need of a ride to Jackson, Wyo., where she said they happened to be heading. Baker said Laundrie got in their Jeep, and after the couple exchanged small talk with their hitchhiker, Laundrie mentioned he had been camping “for multiple days without his fiancée,” who he said was “working on their social media page back at their van.”
Baker said that when she told Laundrie they were driving to Jackson Hole, Laundrie “freaked out” and ask them to pull over, whereupon he exited their vehicle.
“It was a weird situation,” Baker said. “When we picked him up he was wearing a backpack, he had a long sleeve, pants, hiking boots, and he had like, scruff. Um, but, he didn’t look dirty. For someone who was camping for multiple days, like, he didn’t look dirty, he didn’t smell dirty. So that part was kind of weird.”
In a Sept. 15 interview with PEOPLE, Joseph described his daughter as an “amazing” person.
“She’s so artistic. She’s an amazing artist. She loves to draw,” he said. “She has a great eye with decorating … She’s that flower child type of personality. The old soul, you know?”
“If Woodstock was still going on, she’d still be there, man,” Joseph added. “She’s a hippie from the ’60s, all right? She’s a Beatles fan, round glasses … a free spirit.”
