Nicole Baker Barrett, jo pehle Nicole Barrett Baker ke naam se jani jati thi, ek waqt par kaafi charchit rahi hain, khas kar Gary Gilmore ke sath unke rishton ki wajah se. Gary Gilmore ek khatarnak criminal tha jise 1977 mein death sentence mila tha. Nicole aur Gilmore ki kahani 1976 mein shuru hui thi jab Gilmore jail se bahar aaya aur dono ek doosre se mile. Nicole us waqt ek divorcee thi aur do bachon ki maa bhi.

Unka rishta kaafi complex tha aur dono ne milkar November 1976 mein suicide attempt bhi kiya, lekin dono bach gaye. Suicide attempt ke baad Nicole ko mental hospital bhej diya gaya, jabki Gilmore ko murder charges mein arrest kiya gaya aur phir unka execution hua. Gilmore ke marne ke baad, Nicole public life se almost completely disappear ho gayi.

Reports ke mutaabik, 1987 tak Nicole ek naye life partner ke sath Medford, Oregon mein shift ho gayi thi, jahan unka ek aur bachha bhi hua. Uske baad unhone apni privacy banaye rakhi aur media se door rahi. Bahut saare sources kehte hain ki aaj bhi wo kahin Oregon mein hi rehti hain, lekin apna surname change kar chuki hain taaki unka aur unke parivaar ka naam public scrutiny se bacha rahe.

Nicole aur Gilmore ki kahani itni mashhoor ho gayi ki is par Norman Mailer ne ek Pulitzer Prize-winning book likhi, “The Executioner’s Song”, jisme Nicole ka bhi zikr hai. Is book par ek TV movie bhi bani thi jo kaafi famous rahi.

Aaj ki date mein Nicole Baker Barrett ki exact location ya unka haal chaal kisi ko nahi pata. Unhone apni personal life ko media aur public attention se door rakhne ka pura effort kiya hai. Shayad yahi wajah hai ki unki kahani ek unsolved mystery jaisi lagti hai.
