Case

Her case has received widespread news coverage. Her husband, Craig Stebic, refused to talk to the police or to help in the investigation or search.[7] [8] The local CBS affiliate (WBBM-TV) broadcast a video of a rival station's reporter Amy Jacobson at the Stebic home wearing a bikini.[9]

Jacobson, Craig Stebic's sister, Jill Webb, and her husband, Robert Webb, have all filed lawsuits against WBBM regarding airing of the video.[10] Craig Stebic has never been named a suspect by police, although he has been called "a person of interest" in his wife's disappearance.[7] [11] [12]

In October 2007, the FBI added pictures of Lisa and information about her disappearance to its kidnapped and missing persons website.[13] Stebic's photo and information were shown on national television at the end of the October 11, 2007 broadcast of Without A Trace, a CBS drama about an FBI missing-persons team in New York City and detailed the next morning on The Early Show.[14]

, Stebic is still a missing person.[15]
