I wonder if the police know for sure the lake they searched is the lake in question. I grew up in Flagler Co. Florida, neighboring Putnam county Fl and there is an area about 20 miles from Satsuma called Mondex…It was originally a subdivision developed by the Mondex Co. around 30 years ago but never quite sold like developers intended and it is a poor man’s haven, infested with drugs and criminal activity. Until the search last weekend I had never heard of another area called “Mondex” and there are several lakes in that area, if police aen’t sure maybe they should consider this area to search…druggies hang out with druggies and this Mondex area is full of people on drugs.

Toughenough – Thanks for the info. Could you give us street names on the perimeter of what is the Mondex area? I counted about 15+ ponds in the area surrounding L-pond, but not sure what is considered Mondex. Thanks!

Water Oak is the closest to Putnam Co and is one of the main roads (A PERIMETER RD) and the Tangerine area is in a less populated corner.

I grew up in Putnam Co. All my family lives there still. I moves a county over (Flagler)3yrs ago. There are bunch of ponds in the Mondex. There’s also more than one Mondex property.

Jr is young enough that he would have fallen asleep where he stood once it got too far past his bedtime.
But I don’t think that Haleigh accidentally got into any pills. She would have tried to chew them and pills are bitter on purpose. However, there’s a practice here that disgusts me. Dope your kids with Benadryl so they go to sleep faster. A f-ed up 17 year old idiot could easily come up with the idea of slipping Haleigh some oxy to get her to go to sleep while she partied. Accidental overdose is just a step away from there. I think this Pytko maybe heard or saw something and just guessed a location based on a place where he’d seen Prevatt and Misty hanging out.

Almost any place where there’s a few trees to hide you is a drug/drinking hang out here. And yes, you can get to most of them by car if you know which trails to use.
They’ve built housing developments over nearly all the places where I or my parents hung out when we were teens (and I’m too old to do that crap anymore anyway) so I don’t know exactly which ones are frequented these days. But hanging out in the middle of the woods and screwing around is a pretty common practice; so there’s dozens of places with one or more body of water in the vicinity. Unfortunately without a good lead LE won’t know where to begin.

And there’s a big problem with searching all the ponds in this area…there’s just to damn many of them. Plus we’ve had a lot of rain so far this year which has turned everything into mush. This is a swamp after all.

Honestly, you can’t get a good idea of how many ponds, puddles, creeks, rivers, and lakes there are in this area via map, you actually have to be on the ground here to understand why a systematic search of every body of water is nearly impossible.

Not to mention that the cross Florida Barge canal isn’t very far away, plus dozens of creeks and small rivers, plus the Ocala National Forest and just too much undeveloped land. Without some kind of lead there’s just no way to do it.

As for Prevatt’s letter, it sounds a lot like someone telling someone else to give her an alibi. Unless LE can find evidence that says someone overdosed and was in her car…drool, split, vomit, or something that will have drugs in it….she’ll stick to her story about not being there. Probably say that Haleigh was in her car at some earlier date when she took Misty and the kids to the store or something.

If Joseph (Joe Psycho) Pytko were an eye witness to these events Haleigh would most likely have already been found and Misty, most likely, would already be in jail.
…Just a thought.

It seems to me it sure would be easier to conveniently seize on the idea of a bunch of druggies and / or mentally ill culprits to close a case rather than go after the child sex trade. If that’s involved, they (the guilty ones), could have poor Joe claiming up is down to satisfy the authorities.

With sex offenders moving out to the rural areas it seems logical that the child sex trade would be equally as present there as the drug trade, and equally as suspect in a case like this. I would imagine that in some places the natives are feeling like war has been declared on them. (So much for moving out to the country.) We need the death penalty for drug dealers and child-traffickers.

To me it would make more sense that, if the child was drugged, she was drugged to take her out of the house, not that she was awake at a party that she was taken to in the middle of the night and got into something. In other words, I’m not inclined to buy into this, affidavit or no. From what the mother said, it sounds like Haleigh, like most little girls her age, was a tattletale.

It seems to me maybe the letter was written because this girl was guessing where Haleigh could be found, based on knowledge of Misty’s habits. Maybe she wanted the reward.

Nancy Grace, whom it would appear is firmly in the “Let’s Fry Misty” camp, did manage to admit one problem with this last night: How could a group of people with this knowledge of the child’s death have all kept their mouths shut for such a long time? My thought exactly.

Its called The L shape….i grew up a couple of roads away from it.. and The Mondex is on the oppostite side of the road….And anyone that knows Palatka knows there are so many ponds and “mud holes” in that area that it would take months to drain all of them.I really hope they find Haleigh and fry Misty

Could Psycho Joe really be the Joe Misty says took Haleigh instead of Cousin Joe?

I think Joe Pytko IS involved in Haleigh’s disappearance and that Misty knows it, and is too afraid to tell because of Ronald’s reaction and retaliation from sooo many people. There is alot more going on with this case than a missing child, many people have alot to lose by coming forward because they are all involved in illegal activity. I think Misty was up to no good the night Haleigh disappeared, and she is covering her tracks on alot more than Haleigh’s disappearance. In other words, whatever she was doing that night, she is too afraid to tell the truth because implicating who she suspects also gets her in a ton of other trouble as well.

onald would do if she took his kids to some party. I think that is just a wild rumor. I think Ronald is also suspicious that someone in the drug scene in the near area took his daughter as a possible act of revenge or warning to him linked to his own drug activity, but is afraid to say anything that would put LE on him for drug issues in the middle of this, the media would eat him alive.

Suspicious, you sure do have a lot to say.

You’d be surprised how lenient the police will be to drug offenders when they’re trying to recover a missing child. Witnesses don’t have as much to lose as you seem to think they do.

If you ask me, NayNay is the one to watch in this whole scenario. She’s been a busy little bee but she’s not near as smart as she thinks she is.

It was probably her idea to drug Haleigh so she’d sleep & her idea to cover it up once the party was over and they realized that Haleigh wasn’t sleeping anymore. I don’t think she’d have “helped” Misty otherwise.

That “pee blanket” that was being washed…was it really just pee or was it a release of bodily fluids after a death?

How many vehicles did it take to get that Lincoln out of the mud? I’m thinking 2.

The dogs hit on the dumpster but I don’t think Haleigh was ever in it. I think it was just whatever they used to clean the car out after they got to the house (Rons). It smelled like her but it wasn’t identified because it didn’t “belong” to her. I bet they still might have some of the stuff they recovered from the dumpster.

I have a lot of faith in the Putnam County Police Department and all that “crazy CSI shit”. I’m glad they’re taking their time & doing it right.

Who tells first, wins.

I’m with you Clearview. If they thought she was sleeping then they probably didn’t realize she was gone until it was time to get home before Ronald got off work. That wouldn’t leave them much time to go too far out of their way. Go for the empty spots in between the residential areas in between the homes.

Also need to keep an eye out for blue paint on wire, limbs, etc. that came from that van too. Red paint from the truck maybe. They were freaked out, high & working in the dark. Mistakes were made, guaranteed.

I’m ready for another volunteer search whenever the police are but I don’t want to get in their way. It’s cooling off too…perfect time…people will think clearer & have sharper eyes if they’re not melting.

These idiots may be holding out hope that animals have gotten to her and there won’t be anything left but that’s going to backfire on them. If her clothes are in pieces then they’re going to be spread out and easier to find. Misty said she was wearing a pink shirt…that’ll stand out like a sore thumb.

I’d like to help the police find her before they confess.

That Amber Brooks borrowed NayNays car once and got it stuck in the woods.. Question her about the place and that will be the area of the Mondex they usually party at i’ll bet!! What was the time frame for borrowing the car? during the weekend while partying or on monday when she went missing? Mistys van also had cracked headlights and scratches.. probably from pulling out nay nays car when got stuck by amber after borrowing.
