Stebic, 37, is five-feet, two-inches tall, 120 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. She has two visible tattoos, a small rose on her ankle and a large butterfly on her lower back.

Her case has received widespread news coverage because of her husband's refusal to talk to the police or to help in the investigation or search, and more recently when the local CBS affiliate(WBBM-TV) broadcast a video of a rival station’s reporter, Amy Jacobson, at the Stebic’s home wearing a bikini. Jacobson, Craig Stebic's sister, and her husband have all filed lawsuits against WBBM regarding airing of the video.
