Murder Arrest Made in 1989 Cold Case Disappearance of Iowa Woman 2025-03-11 Robert Allen Davis, 61, of Council Bluffs, was arrested Monday, March 10, 2025, and charged with first-degree murder more than three decades after his then-girlfriend Barbara Lenz disappeared in Harrison County. His arrest is the result of an investigation by the state's cold case unit, launched last summer by Attorney General Brenna Bird's office to investigate Iowa's more than 400 unsolved murders. Court records say Davis, who was 25 at the time of Lenz's disappearance, was the last person to see her alive. Days before, Lenz told others she was scared of him, and feared he would 'kill her if she ever left.' A criminal complaint alleges Davis had assaulted Lenz several times during their two-year relationship, including multiple incidents where he strangled her. The documents show Davis admitted in 1989 to assaulting Lenz and having a violent temper. Lenz's daughter, Lindsy Baumgart, was 3 years old at the time of her mother's disappearance. Baumgart says she is in a state of grief but is also grateful to the DCI and Cold Case Investigators. Prosecutors have not yet publicly shared what evidence led them to arrest Davis this week — more than three decades after Lenz disappeared. Those details are expected to come out during the trial.
