		<description>SW: two close family friends (names withheld because of threats they have received). 
====================

Q:  How could they receive threats if no one knew they were there?

++++++++++++++++++++


SW:  So it was decided by a spokesperson for Marie to send half the proceeds to Texas Equusearch 


===================

Q:   Who is the "spokesperson for Marie"????????????????


+++++++++++++++++++

SW:  There were a tremendous amount of nasty emails and messages about the family and so we felt it was best not to release the location at the beginning.

==================

Q: I thought you said it was 2 close family friends that received threats?

++++++++++++++++++

SW:  Putting the whole thing together was a nightmare! 

==================

Q:  I thought you said this was about Haleigh? How did you resolve "security"? Why hold it the same weekend as TX vs OK football game?

+++++++++++++++++


SW:  We got hundreds of emails daily saying what a wonderful thing we were doing and how they wanted to attend. Yet no one was buying tickets.

=================

Q: I am sorry. You said that proceeds would go to TES &#38; Justice coalition due to all the negative emails you got about Haleigh Bug Foundation. I could swear upletter you said you had to have secret location because of all the threats being made

+++++++++++++++++

SW:  People were unwilling to donate, so we had to conduct advertising trades for lighting, sound, food, etc. Sam had to build the stage himself...Bands, vendors, donors were all canceling on us constantly. 

=================

Q: You traded for so much lighting that it blew the circuits but you forgot to trade for a stage builder? There was low attendance in part due to low lighting? Did you plan to use this stage lighting as the roadway entrance to the farm? Did you get emails from fans that got lost and couldn't find the concert? 

+++++++++++++++++

SW:  If you bought a ticket and did not attend the benefit please email us a copy of it so we can refund your money, eventful.com has two tickets sold. Everyone that attended has a ticket stub (VIPS, Friends and Family) if you are saying you attended, please email us a copy of that ticket stub. We made sure everything could be proved!
===============

Q:  Has Crystal emailed you a copy? What does it prove that you gave all these "VIP's" tickets? Why would you expect anyone to still be clinging to their ticket stubs they didn't pay for and/or didn't attend?</description>

		<description>For Immediate Release

BENEFIT CONCERT FOR HALEIGH CUMMINGS, THE FACTS!

The “Haleigh Benefit Concert” for Haleigh Cummings was held on October 17, 2009 at The OO Ranch. In attendance were Marie Griffis, Crystal Sheffield, Marie’s daughter Savannah and two close family friends (names withheld because of threats they have received). Tim Miller of Texas Equusearch also attended. Sam Watkins Country became friends with Marie and Crystal as well as Haleigh Cummings “advocates” through MySpace and followed the story for several months. Marie told Sam that she loved his music and that is how the “Haleigh Benefit Concert” came into being. Our position is this: “We put this together for one person and that person is Haleigh Cummings. We are not concerned with ‘he said, she said’. This is about closure for both sides of the family, not about ‘crying for the camera’ and trying to attain fame through tabloid news shows! This is about Haleigh Cummings, 6 years old, missing, who desperately needs to be found and whose family, ‘Mother’ and ‘Father’, need closure!!”
There were a tremendous amount of obstacles involved in putting the benefit concert together. When it was mentioned that all proceeds would go to the “Haleigh Bug Foundation”, we received many emails saying that they would not attend because the foundation was a scam. So it was decided by a spokesperson for Marie to send half the proceeds to Texas Equusearch (for the search and possible rescue) and the other half to the Justice Coalition (for the reward), to avoid problems of where the money was going. Only two tickets were sold through Eventful.com the money is still there, we have dated receipts for everything. All the bands were allowed to sell CD’s and merchandise and 10% was to be donated to the benefit, nothing was sold. There were a tremendous amount of nasty emails and messages about the family and so we felt it was best not to release the location at the beginning. We were told that Marie’s family received threats and so there stay in Austin was undisclosed, for their own protection. Once we were sure they would be safe and that security would be in place at the benefit concert, it was decided that we could release the location. Putting the whole thing together was a nightmare! People were unwilling to donate, so we had to conduct advertising trades for lighting, sound, food, etc. Sam had to build the stage himself. People were still reluctant, so we had to pay for a lot of it ourselves. Needless to say we lost a lot of money. We got hundreds of emails daily saying what a wonderful thing we were doing and how they wanted to attend. Yet no one was buying tickets. Even Sam’s fans were saying they would be there but would not buy tickets ahead of time because of the controversy of the case. Bands, vendors, donors were all canceling on us constantly. At the last minute, we got The Andrew Jennings Band, Fond Kiser, and T.R. Anthony. The Ranch owner blew some electrical circuits because of all the lighting and sound equipment, which was provided by WCI Entertainment. However because of the circuit problems the entire ranch was very low lit, we were not able to use the lighting or sound equipment planned. The ranch is 20 miles outside of Austin and very hard to find with poor lighting, so that was another reason for the poor attendance. Tim Miller arrived around 7:00 pm while it was still light outside; the family arrived before the concert started. All of Sam’s fans wanted to see videos of him and his band performing, so we posted some on YouTube for them to see. Our videographer went out of town and said he would post more of the video (including audience shots) when he got back. He should be back soon. The other performers were given their portion of the videos since they did not sell anything. When we realized the attendance would be low, we made a lot of last minute changes. Because of sound and lighting problems we were not able to record the audience when Sam Watkins and Fate Train (the headliners of the benefit) performed, only the stage had lighting and sound. Yes, the location was a Ranch. There were several reasons for that; one was because of safety issues. We felt we would have more control out there than anywhere else. Being a small town, the sheriff’s office knows everyone in the area; the budget was non existent and had to come out of our pockets and it’s a huge ranch with lots of space and very beautiful. The press release we sent was published in The Texas Express in the Bastrop/Austin area and in American Classifieds in San Antonio. As far as we know, they were the only ones that published it. A major obstacle was the Texas/Oklahoma game, which is one of the biggest games of the season around the area. We were told by hundreds that they would attend after the game. Now we often receive calls and emails from people apologizing for not attending for various reasons: they drank too much at the game, they got lost and could not find the ranch, they were afraid to attend because of safety issues, etc. We held the benefit in Texas because most of Sam’s fans live in Texas and it would be easier to coordinate here; the family did not have the time or experience to put the event together. We cancelled all our gigs for two months. However, some great things did come out of it. Tim Miller got to meet Crystal and Marie and they talked for hours and made plans for the search and we got some videos for Sam’s press kit. Does that make us ‘glory hogs’? No. What it does is promote Sam to a higher level where more people know us and our work with missing children and, yes, more fans! The more fans Sam has, the more awareness we build and the more families we can help. We are in the music industry and promoting Sam’s music is what we do. The song “Baby Girl” is about one of our staff members search for her missing daughter. The song is to be posted when the videographer comes back along with the shots of behind the scenes. Why did we do it even though there were so many obstacles and loss on our part? The answer is simple. With over 800,000 children missing yearly, we felt that if we could be a part of helping to find Haleigh we could raise awareness and get involved in an issue that we feel has gone under the bridge for too long. Yes, many of them are found safely. What about the others? Kids wind up missing, abused and neglected constantly, yet people prefer to turn a blind eye. They want to focus on less important news because it’s just too much to deal with. Or they focus on tabloid news stories while people like Phillip Garrido get away with murder! Our feeling is that if we can open their eyes then we could really help the ones that are still out there and bring closure to those families as well. Why does it mean so much to us? Because our company has various staff members that have had missing children or have been affected in one way or another by a child’s disappearance. We know the pain and the desperation of not having the help and resources necessary to deal with the worst thing that can happen to a family! As a Company, we have spent three years speaking to people throughout the country that have missing children, as individuals it has been longer than that. All we have done is guide people to the resources needed and listen to them when they needed someone to listen. We finally had a chance to really do something about it, but with all the blogging and negativity that this case has received our mission was a lost cause from the very beginning. But, as with all things, some good did come out of it and we met a lot of great people and made some strong friendships! We will continue to pray and help when needed to find Haleigh as well as any other missing child who need our support. Our number has never been disconnected and continues to be 877-726-1792 and our email is info@samwatkinscountry.com. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. If you bought a ticket and did not attend the benefit please email us a copy of it so we can refund your money, eventful.com has two tickets sold. Everyone that attended has a ticket stub (VIPS, Friends and Family) if you are saying you attended, please email us a copy of that ticket stub. We made sure everything could be proved! If you sent any money to the foundation for tickets please deal with them directly, we have nothing to do with any donations sent to them. Thanks and God Bless!</description>

It evened held the health records, banking ATM bard all they needed to do is swipe the back of their hand to pay for stuff. My Mom works the Government. In addition, my Dad is a Marine.</description>

		<description>Lawshrink, do your pets have them kind of stapled in the ear? I've been meaning to look into that.

		<description>Maybe there's a compromise. If someone could invent a mandatory implanted tracking device for SOs and Sex Predators  that - if removed - would be lethal.  So far that's the only alternative I can come up with to (a) the death penalty or (b) mandatory life without parole.</description>

		<description>KAT, mandatory un-removable tracking devices, are already tested (on Marines) and FDA has approved them, However not many people want to be tracked. Nevertheless, it would be great for Children. All of my pets have them and they work great. The sad part is they can be detected on a body and if a SO was to get a hold of a child that had one they make take measures to remove it.</description>

		<description>The video could have been made during practice, or early in the night. Most of the bars I've been to, people don't get up and cheer or dance until they are a little toasted from the alcohol beverage of their choice. They just sit and watch at first. It is also possible that because Haleigh's family is so untrustworthy that nobody cares anymore. They have made up their minds about what happened to poor little Haleigh. It makes me sick to my stomach. Early on, I thought for sure she would be found, and my heart would not be broken again. I do not know these children ... Caylee, Adji, Haleigh, Somer, Elizabeth ... but I've prayed for them just like they are my own, because it could happen to one of my own. I still stick to the solution of mandatory unremoveable tracking devices.</description>

		<description>Ok, do not through tomatoes,

People in glass house should not throw stones.

IN ADDITION, I LIVE IN A GLASS HOUSE.

We don’t have all that facts on all the players,  so we can’t judge anyone.

Haleigh Bug, Tim Miller Equusearch, PSCO, and Justice Coalition is a nonprofit corporation,
Therefore, the public can scrutinize its books (Bylaw). 
In addition, they are subjected to an external audit upon request.

Therefore, Even if they made only five buck on this concert if the funds are not used for what the nonprofit mission statement then they are in breach of corporation law.

I truly believe when someone gives with their heart monies to find Haleigh that they want that monies to find Haleigh.

If they are all legitimate no harm no foul</description>

		<description>To clarify, DRM. I do believe that it's my right and duty to contact every official from the Governor on down to encourage a more thorough investigation.
But for bloggers like me to contact the families, witnesses, etc, as far as I'm concerned that is stalking, harrassment and interfering in a police investigation.</description>

		<description>DRM @ 12:02 am:
I am here to support the investigation by the appropriate people - reporters like TJ Hart and LE for example.

I do not believe that it is my place to call Crystal or whoever else was involved in the concert. I don't have that huge or obnoxious an ego to insert myself into a case, to intrude on homes and lives of the people involved (Crystal &#38; Family, Ron, etc).
I think that is the height of selfishness, self-centeredness, ego, - I can't find enough words to describe how awful I think that is.
Earlier in the case when I heard about bloggers phoning the homes of people like Haleigh's grandmothers I almost threw up. Just as an example: Can you imagine what went thru the minds of those women every time the phone rang? 
"Is it LE telling me Haleigh's dead?"  
I would NOT be the one shoving my way into their home or life thru the phone or by any other means.
As an interested and caring member of the public I can, however, encourage the appropriate professionals to pursue certain lines of inquiry.
That's my right and my duty. The other type of behavior disgusts me.</description>

		<description>To me this "concert" video seemed like an after thought.  Like Crystal wanted to go to TX, maybe with fiance'. They knew everyone was watching them and would wonder &#38; critize Crystal for traveling so far away at a time like this, who's paying for it, ect. Sooo they decided to have some "friends" throw a benefit concert or at least make it look like one. That way all of the bloggers would not suspect that it was really a pleasure trip. I have been to large upscale concerts/productions as well as down-home in an empty field kind and I have NEVER seen a concert look or sound like that. By look I mean there are NO images of the audience, passer-bys, dancers, ect.  Also there is NO audio of the people there.
I am NOT happy if this was a real concert and very few people showed up. It was a dumb idea anyway.  Why have it all the way in Texas? Why not in FL where her family and friends live? They could have hosted an online concert so that many many more people could "attend". In this economy very few people are going to be able to travel great distances even if they want to help.  I think that this topic IS VERY relevant to this case. If there's shady doings with this concert, then there's shady doings elsewhere as well. 
For those who believe that the only person we should be discussing is Haleigh and not family or friends, let me remind you that just this week, a precious baby was found and placed into safety. If we ALL had not jumped onto the band wagon and started caring and investigating the LE wouldn't have felt the pressure to hurry up (Sheriff's words) Had they NOT considered rumor (heresay) and investigated family &#38; close friends we may have lost Shannon Dedrick as well.  So you all can keep squaking about keeping the focus on Haleigh all you want.  There are those of us, however, that refuse to leave any stone unturned, just like the Washington county LE &#38; ect.</description>

		<description>mc2... First off I'll say "it's a pleasure" I enjoy how u make me look at it all without making me feel that you have a "side." I have no side and being a parent I find it so hard to believe that a parent could be involved with something like this.. Sadly I'm sure we can all agree on how wrong I am, mainly because it happens every day.. 
 When things this awful happen people will always have opinions, I just wish that we all could learn to post them and disgust them without all the anger. It isn't about sides, the money, who's sleeping with who or what drugs they are doing.. its only about a beautiful little girl that needs to be found. On both sides of the fence I have seen some amazing and brilliant ideas,if we could all learn to come together with all views and open minds perhaps we could be thought of productive instead of a bunch of crazy fighting bloggers..</description>

		<description>mc2, if you donated a dollar and want to know what they did with it, then get off your behind and ask them.  

You say 'that's all we're asking', to which I say WHEN?

When did you ask them, m2c?

YOU DIDN'T.</description>

		<description>I only watched that one snipet of the "concert". I am leaning towards that being a rehearsal. 

As far as the money issue, it's important to look into it, IF we suspect that somehow Crystal is forwarding it to fund HaLeigh's upkeep.

With that all said and done... I am not making lite of the situation. I just think that all sides have major flaws.

Ok... Ron rode a horse 1 time to look for his daughter, and Crystal didn't meet TM @ that time. He still married the GIRL that was with his child that awful night.

		<description>Star_Bright - most of us believe in equal trash talking. :)  Actually I mean equal scrutiny and investigation. There is no reason for Crystal or her family to be exempt from that.

So far I have not found one person close to Haleigh worth one ounce of admiration. So don't worry.
As I said earlier, a negative comment about Crystal does not mean someone is defending Ron.

To reduce the discussion of what happened to Haleigh to such an over-simplified black and white level is - well - ridiculoua. EVERYONE needs to be investigated. The truth needs to be known about EVERYONE close to Haleigh.</description>

		<description>SheWolfRocks: I may not be right. I was just suggesting possibilities. At the very end of the video that you can click on in the article above,  when the camera pulls out it looks like there may be a big puddle in the bottom left of the screen, in front of the yellow electrical cord. Maybe the audience sat on the other side of that rather than closer to the stage. 
I guess I just can't imagine why a real band - which I guess this is - would agree to put on a fake concert with a big banner about Haleigh. 
I think there were some people there. Probably not a lot. But it sort of doesn't matter because there has to be an accounting somewhere of whatever money was taken in (unless cash went into someone's pocket as people paid to attend). 
But surely that would not be all of it. No one who organized this would want to admit that no money was made.  So I think it's still okay to ask what happened to it. If expenses ate it up, they should just tell us. If they only made $50 they should just tell us.
That's all we're asking.</description>

		<description>brat1950 - You and Viva are very lucky to have tried and convicted someone already.
I'm still looking for evidence and looking for Haleigh. So I guess I'll be blogging for a while but you all don't need to anymore. After all we bloggers aren't the jury so there's no use trying to convince us. I guess you can sit back or move on to another case! As I said, lucky you.</description>

		<description>Go Viva! I agree with everything you said! Ronald Cummings is responsible for HaLeighs disappearance. He put his children in danger when he left them with his 17 year old sex crazed, drugged out, irresponsible playmate. Ron should have been more selective about who was caring for the children. I hold him fully responsible.</description>

		<description>m2c.... You could possibly be right on all points... I could possibly be wrong on all points!! I just found the whole thing odd. At one point you can see even around the side of the stage and not one person was visible. I would have just assumed that you would at least see 1 person.. I've been to 100's of concerts some held for benefits and just have never seen anything like it.. Please don't get me wrong.. I have NEVER thought Crystal had a thing to do with Haleigh going missing.. I still think this all lies in Misty's lap.</description>

		<description>It is unfair to personally attack me, I myself am a mother. It is my role as a mother that makes me question Crystal's actions as a mother. If we are looking for a suspect, she has motive. Why don't you report the answers if you have them. 

I am from Canada, does anyone who posts here know where to look for these answers in the US? Here, NPFs releases there financial statements to the public. You can go on the websites and look for yourself. I have been to the Haleighbug website and there is no links to see such information.</description>

		<description>Viva: The article was about the concert and where the funds have gone. If you don't agree, move on. I have seen you and your closed minded comments all over the internet. Don't you see that by refusing to look outside your own little box you are doing the same you accuse others of doing? If this case is ever to be solved ALL investigative directions and ALL people involved need to be questioned.

The big questions here is, where are the Halieghbug profits? And why don't you feel like it is relevant that her family would be involved in this while she is missing? 

Did you read about how Crystal and Marie only met TM at this concert? WTF???? I think Crystal and Marie were the reason behind TM's latest comments about the fighting families and no one cooperating. It was right after the concert.

Now don't get all going on how I love Ron, I don't, he is a controlling and likely abusive and scary man. I don't like him at all, he is scary, controlling and likely abusive. He has no respect for women or his own children's well being. 

That being said, Halieghbug needs to be scrutinized. The money is going somewhere, aren't they obligated to reveal it? At least after they were forced to be an NPF? Lots of shady goings on there that seem easily forgotten. 

A question of the mother is not an advocacy of the father and I wish you would stop trying to make this into a choose sides type of issue.</description>

		<description>You know I am really sick of hearing about Ron spending donation money to get a tattoo. The tattoo shop was paid directly by a customer specifically for a tattoo for Ron.

Why the heck dont you people ask Crystal who paid her for her tattoo. Or didn't anybody, even media that was there in satsuman, even take notice that she got one as well.

I am sure if you pick up the phone and call her she will tell you when she got it, where it is, and what it is. Of course if she doesn't admit to it, I am sure there is somebody else can verify it for you.</description>

Who cares about this concert? I mean, what if no one showed up? Does that make some feel happy? It makes me sad- But some want and hate Haleighs mother so much they need to pick apart things like concerts and where the money went, when Ronald Cummings took a 400 dollar donation and got a crappy memorial tattoo- So what is the issue here? That no one came? Is that fun for some to point out? Or is it if they did where did the money go? Like this stuff is even remotely important in the broad scheme of things- How sad that news is so sparse, this is news-

-----------------------
Viva, Ron took NO donation to get a tattoo, the tattoo itself was donated by someone. 
Looks who talking about hating. Your hate for Ron shows in every post you make on all the boards you post on. You are the pot calling a kettle black. 

It is very important in the grand "scheme" of things. People did go to that concert, so where's the money? They've already bought 4 wheelers and paid back taxes and nice shiny new pipes for the pickup.</description>

		<description>Hell Ron was out on horseback with TM looking for HaLeigh. According to Watkins website Crystal and her family never even went down the road to meet TM back in Feb. What does that tell you?

As far as donations. You can get an accounting of every dime donated to the trust fund set up for the family through Jamie Watts or through BOA.

Good luck trying to get an accounting of donations  from HBF or Crystal.</description>

Where is this money and what is it going for? Why is there not a full disclosure of all the funds on Crystal and Ron’s side
----------------
Call Jamie Watts and he will tell you the accounting of Ron's little donation fund. Ron had to show receipts to Jamie before he was reimbursed. It had less than 5K in it.</description>

		<description>To mlee,my point is that I don't care if there was a concert,and if there was one,who cares about back grounds,cheap sets and banners,if they are big or small fund raising concerts or what ever,and where or how much is made,as long as it is used for finding this child,which fund it goes to has know bearings to me.Now if this money is being used for any of these people to live on that would bother me and anyone that has an once of since.But the thing is know one has proved anything to me about this event.Had I of been there I would of helped if it was on the up and up.It just seems everyone is looking for the bad and it makes me sick.I can't see much positive in any of Haleigh's family on either side,and I do agree with Jan,at a time like this both sides should be pulling together and helping find the child.At first I too felt mad as hell at them and have judged the lot of them hard,but I came to the understanding that we have one issue and that is some how,so way Haleigh needs to be found.I don't care about that bunch of crap anymore I just want to see the child found.So in short if my dollar helps and I had it to give then I don't care how big or small a concert is I would give for the cause.Now has anyone found out where and when the so called concert was,where the money went and if there was something done wrong with the funds?Give us something real and solid to go on before everyone goes crazy making judgments. We can say this,if Misty,Ron or any of these people in that town did something to Haleigh,they are really hard,cold,yet strong,mean and don't have a heart or the since of real love,because by now a loving caring person would of broke.Or the LE has not really been hard enough.I pray for this child and all the children today and everyday so I hope you to also pray.God Bless you all for with me have become Haleigh's extended family.</description>

		<description>SheWolfRocks, please see my posts at 9:07 am and 9:17 am for some possible reasons for the audience not to be taped (and for hearing little applause). Just possibilities. 

I don't know what's meant by "fake" concert. It's a concert and the band would have had to be in on the faking - see the banner on the front of the stage. I don't think those guys would involved themselves in some scam, does anyone?</description>

		<description>Viva, please don't lump "people" together. Some of us are interested in finding out more about this concert that we heard so much about before it took place. Aren't you interested? 

Also, there is a bit of a problem with carrying on about the whole custody/Ron stole the children thing and that is that it gives Crystal a great motive. I'm not saying she's responsible - in fact I don't think she is. But when you look at the whole picture that has to be considered along with everyone on her side of the family (friends and acquaintances included).
So does the money angle. Miraculously someone paid off Crystal's gigantic child support bill just before the issue was to go to court. There's another motive.  So the "custody" issue cuts both ways.
That's one reason I don't like taking sides and judging people to that degree. Until Haleigh is found everyone and everything needs to be looked at very closely. I only wish PCSO would do that.</description>

		<description>Well if the posters online are any indication then  donations were sent even though people could not attend. They even advertised you could buy a ticket even if you could not make it to the concert, so I am sure money came in as it always does, when they use HaLeigh's name. To bad not one cent that was ever donated was used to help find HaLeigh</description>

		<description>And if its a fake concert, what did it accomplish, what was the motivation for faking a concert?  And one person clapping breaks my heart-  People are so thrilled this failed- its sad-</description>

		<description>Viva... Have u watched these video's? If you listen closely at the end of songs you will hear 1 person clapping.. IMO if this was a true concert for Haleigh at least a few family members and friends would have attended.. Yes it would be sad if it was just a poor turn out.. but 1 person clapping? Do you not find that odd? Truth be told I don't care who's pockets are being lined from what money nor do I think Crystal or her family have a thing to do with Haleighs disappearance.. BUT I do think this was some kind of a fake concert.. To me Misty is the one someone needs to be grabbed a hold of.  shake the shit out of until she spills her guts...</description>

		<description>Lets show outcry over a concert!  But lets turn our backs on all the money Ron gets, he even has a fund to help his family though this time! Give me a break, how the hell did Jaycee Duguards family go on, and work and support their families for decades with a missing child, they had a younger child too, but they had no choice but to go on and provide for the remaining members!

But not Ron!  He even has said he does not know if he can EVER work again!  Let the boo hoos commence!  And thats fine for some of you, and thats sad- Jr sees a daddy who puts guns in his mouth to scare people, he doesn't see his daddy being a man and going to work, and showing him a positive role model-

   Crystal may or may have not gotten some money for this concert, and now people are screaming fraud-  And PROVE she even took money from this- no one can!!

No way can anyone sit and dwell on such a petty thing even claim they are just here for Haleigh, thats a crock-  How about asking why Daddy had Haleigh branded forever his little girl on the BACK of his leg?    More than likely that donation of 400 dollars for that garish tat, that Ron got donated to him, was more than what Crystal would have gotten from the concert-

But some of you are dancing with glee over there mere thought a concert for Haleigh was unsuccessful, while most people would find that really sad, it pleasures some who want Marie and Crystal to fail at whatever they are involved with, even if the main focus of their actions is HaLeigh-

		<description>THis is an excerpt from Watkins website.

The best part of the night came all the way from Houston!  Mr. Tim Miller from Texas Equusearch drove all the way from Houston, Texas to the Benefit to meet Crystal and Marie.  They talked like old friends and made plans to search for Haleigh.  Crystal and Marie told us that they had never met Mr. Tim Miller and if it wasn’t for the Benefit, they probably would not have met.  Mission accomplished!  

Mr. Tim Miller will use all his resources to help Crystal and Marie and will not give up until Haleigh is found!  

The rest of the night, they enjoyed the music and company.  There was less stress and pressure in their hearts, they knew that Mr. Miller would never give up! 

http://samwatkinscountry.com/Shows_and_Events.html

So if there really wasn't a concert or the money was collected for things other then what was being advertised, what was TM doing there? HMMMMM...things that make you scratch your head and wonder.

And what is that about Crystal and Marie never meeting TM before? Why the heck didnt they meet TM in Satsuma in Feb. when all the rest of the family met him? Did they not take the time to go down to the staging area to thank him and his volunteers? When Ron road a horse down to Crystal's camp to ask her to go to TM and beg him to stay, did Crystal not do that?
Hmmm...more head scratching.</description>

		<description>I suggest you re-read the docs and do some of your own sleuthing Viva.  I don't love Ron, when someone disagrees with you or points out the lies it doesn't mean they love Ron or are a family member of his.

Crystal was personally served with the docs, and responded. You can't respond to something you don't have.  Are you now going to say that she wasn't served? And she didn't respond?  Puhlease.

And brutalizing Crystal? Show me where I ever did that.  More sleuthing again would help you know the few actual facts available in this case.  The sickness and dysfunction in Crystal's family started before she was born, and I pity her for that.  What Marie put those children thru with her men and drug choices makes me sad for all of them.  No wonder Crystal is the way she is and Sarah is in jail. Marcus seems to have done ok and I hope God is watching Savannah.

BRING HALEIGH HOME!!!</description>

		<description>That's true, gatorgirl. We just happen to be more aware of what's going on in Florida right now but there are other cases everywhere.
The only way I'd vote to break Florida off and sink it is if all the good people moved away and we put all the SO's there!  THEN it can float away into the ocean and we can "air drop" more SOs on to it in future! LOL! (Actually I think an island is a good place for them. Just air drop supplies once in a while.</description>

		<description>a little bird,
Not every part of florida had bad people in it. It just seems like it with all these missing children which is very sad but there are good people that lives in this state. That was wrong for you to say that florida should break off and sink that is dang right ugly.</description>

		<description>Jan, this band is starting out.  No roadies and all the glamour. My sister and her husband live in Austin and know this band, they did not go to the concert.  The concert you are looking at was probably on a ranch in a field, with them bringing their equipment in on a trailer hooked to the back of their truck, and setting up themselves.  Standard concerts in the austin area on weekends for the 20 to 30 year old crowds.</description>

		<description>Hi, a little bird! I, too, doubt it was a significant financial success (at least the donations part) but they made such a big deal of it beforehand that it's kind of natural to wonder about what happened.</description>

		<description>All I can say is here in Minnesota if RC would have placed a gun in his mouth in front of his four year old son and other witnesses, this child would have been removed from his care and placed under a chips petition. Of course here in Minnesota it is against the law to have sex with a sixteen/ seventeen year old child, so he would have been in custody already and unable to further traumatize his small son in that fashion. I wonder what kind of dirt he has on Le that he is permitted to violate these children like this.</description>

		<description>Curious, if you would removed the I love Ron 4eva blinders, and actually read and comprehended the court papers, you would learn he took the kids, gave a fake address for Crystal so she would not receive the court papers, and would look like she didn't care to fight for the custody of her kids- I refuse to turn the blind eye, and find it uncouth that concert money is a huge deal, and not the means Ron obtained his kids- He basically stole her like she was a pair of shoes, as Ron so eloquently stated that about Haleigh, to Ron, Haleigh was HIS, and her whereabouts shouldn't matter to anyone, even Crystal- So if you agree with that kind of sadistic behavior, then I am truly sorry for you-

I look and focus on facts, not "what if" donations from a concert- Its ok for Ron to take donations, but not Crystal!  How about some reporting about how Ron went into crystals tent and took donation money people gave to her- Its his child, not hers, according to him, and thats not how its supposed to work-

But by all means, lets just keep brutalizing the mother of a missing child who was hours away and is not responsible for her disappearance- Maybe if Ron didn't take his kids out of SPITE, Haleigh would still be here today-

Oh, and as for this being an abduction- Cops say it wasn't, and the TJ Ward voice analyst reveals Misty never put the child to bed that night- so based on that, if she didn't put the child to bed that night, she couldn't have been taken from her bed- Its just called logic and its about time everyone started using it if they truly care about Haleigh, and what happened to her-</description>

		<description>You are wasting your time on a concert that donated not enough money to even worry about and donated for whatever use the Haleighbug seemed fit to do with it.  Where is Haleigh?  QUESTION FOR COBRA OR T.J.:  Why did the Cummings get in an uproar and overly excited over the mondex pond search and no other search?  Is there something to this?  Also, Teresa stated Ron and Misty were up all night talking the night before haleigh went missing.  I thought Misty did not show up until the morning of the haleigh missing.  Will you clarify?  Thank you</description>

		<description>Oh please Viva, grow up and stop the name calling and lies.

And it's very odd you are so interested in whether Ron is working. Who's the "jobless loser"? Who raised the children with NO child support??  He got custody fair and square.</description>

		<description>Sharon @ 10:55 am - That's perfectly possible. I didn't think of that because the video was presented as "the concert." But it does only last about 3 minutes so it's just one number which could have been played for rehearsal or at the concert. Good point!</description>

		<description>Viva - To me they are two different people, two different topics, both deserving of scrutiny because a child is missing. Same with Misty and Tommy and about everyone else (including Snodgrass and other SOs) that is around there.

I think it is a legitimate topic to discuss. The concert was advertised and we are just wondering if it happened, if money was taken in, where did it go? Why is it NOT okay to discuss that but it's terrific to keep "discussing" (bashing) Ron?

Please understand that questions about Crystal's side of the family are not defenses of Ron. Often they are just what they are. Questions. That should be asked. Because when people send in money they should know where it went. That goes for any that Ron got and any that Crystal got.</description>

		<description>Basically, Sam Watkins is fairly well known in the Austin/Bastrop area if you are apart of the entertainment/party and 6th street crowd.  Austin is food/entertainment/politics.  All proceeds went to Haleighbug foundation. Sam put TES link on their website, for anyone that wished to donate directly to TES. From what I gathered the concert made a couple thousand, but I do not know if it was before expenses or after, and I do not know the final benefit to Haleighbug.  If you call they will tell you to contact Haleighbug for further information.</description>

		<description>m2c- Its being implied that these donations, and we dont even know there were any, was used in some way that is sinister and its totally wrong-

Ron Cummings has gotten so many donations, so much he still isnt werking for almost 9 months, you tell me how he is living?  Is he living rent free and off the child support he receives from Crystal?  That classless bastard doesn't even have a compassionate bone in his body to not accept support for Haleigh while shes missing, he is taking it!  Oh yes, I know, Crystal could go ask the courts to not make her pay for Haleigh but if she does that, shes going to have people jumping her for that-

Its totally despicable how this dumb concert is being picked apart-  Its ok that Ron can be a huge jobless loser who puts guns in his mouth in front of his child, Crystals child, btw, and some are worried about some money, I mean should they have sent it to Ronald?  Did Ronald labor and have those babies?  It makes me sick- and it should make anyone sick if anyone actually did some legit research and find out exactly why he even had the kids in the first place-  Its not because Crystal left Ron and didn't take her kids- She did- and he stole them- said he was taking them on vacation and never brought them back-  But lets everyone turn a blind eye to that FACT, and focus on some stupid concert-  Thats really responsible!</description>

		<description>Viva, if we're going to look at people taking and misusing money intended for the search for Haleigh then Ron and Crystal and whoever else have to be looked at. 

And same goes the other way: "Some want and hate Haleigh's father so much they need to jump to" Crystal's defense like she's suddenly Saint Crystal or something. 

At least be fair. Ron's been raked over the coals six ways from Sunday - and he should be thoroughly investigated. So should Crystal's side of the family. IF we really want to be able to say that everything possible was done to find out what happened to Haleigh.</description>

		<description>Hi, Excuses! Unfortunately LDT's don't always work and that's why they're not admissable in court. Plus the person has to agree to take it-even ones given by LE.
But I DO WISH PCSO would have and will sometime look closer at Crystal's side of the family. She may not have done it or even know about it but there are plenty of people in her circle who I believe are capable of "disappearing Haleigh" and there are a lot of reasons they might have done it. 
I wonder what power or connections someone on that side of the family has to have been able to keep PCSO at a distance, demand an expensive and unnecessary search of a piece of property, and so far escape further investigation. 
Is PCSO compromised? Stuck? Stupid? Stubborn?
Or do they know something they have not revealed? If so it sure isn't getting them anywhere.</description>

		<description>Who cares about this concert?  I mean, what if no one showed up?  Does that make some feel happy?  It makes me sad- But some want and hate Haleighs mother so much they need to pick apart things like concerts and where the money went, when Ronald Cummings took a 400 dollar donation and got a crappy memorial tattoo- So what is the issue here?  That no one came? Is that fun for some to point out?  Or is it if they did where did the money go?  Like this stuff is even remotely important in the broad scheme of things- How sad that news is so sparse, this is news-</description>

		<description>Well, in case "Excuses" or anyone else thinks I'm trying to make excuses for Crystal, I'm not.

I'm saying that IMO you can't judge  much on the basis of the video on the link provided.
The video does not prove or disprove whether there was a benefit concert for Haleigh or whether it was a scam.

The best way to do that is ask the people who organized it. Ask them to account for the money that was taken in and where it went. The video doesn't help to answer those questions.</description>

		<description>No just saying that I AM TIRED of this money making schemes that i have seen and there is a little girl Named HALEIGH! WHERE Is ALL THE $$$ they made. And more importantly before they became non PROFIT! All the posters that sent them money all these months. Paid CS all of it. MAKES ME SICK! Exploiting a child to make money is SICK! And while i am at it I think a LDT should be administered to this family for all the money they have made. And no voice anaylsis is not going to work in my books</description>

		<description>One more thinkg, Extra microphones can also cost money and lots of power. Even when there are microphones there should be a sound mixer who can turn the audience mikes on and off at the right times (so the music is recorded without that extra sound). It may be that the "lone clapper" is closest to a mike on or near the stage.
Maybe not very many people attended. So if it was me I'd choose not to show the audience rather than show that so few were there. And I'd choose not to audio record the audience either because that sound can reflect that not many were there.
The important question is- again: What happened to the money that was taken in?</description>

		<description>To respond to some of the questions in Simon's article: I would not infer too much about the integrity of the "benefit" concert from this video.  
- Whoever organized the "benefit" concert may have gotten a band cheap or free and promised them the tape to help promote themselves. In which case they would not want any of the audience (or not much if there were not many attending). And considering the kinds of people who may have been there they may not have wanted their faces taped! (And compared to wanted posters all over the country! LOL!)

- The organizer may not have had any better venue (place for the concert) to offer than the side of a barn (or whatever). 

- The band may travel with the lights we see and would have had to rent the kinds of lights used to shoot an audience (expensive) Or the power available in that location was very limited and could not support more lighting anyway. Lights take LOTS of power.

- Also the videographer's website shows that he usually does weddings! So I don't expect much from him at all.

If we accept that a benefit concert was held (and this may be a tape of it so it did) then I think the most important question is: How much money was taken in and where did it go?  Did those proceeds also have to pay for the band, the location, rented equipment, any advertising and/or the videographer? If so there might not be much left or someone's in the red.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To respond to some of the questions in Simon&#8217;s article: I would not infer too much about the integrity of the &#8220;benefit&#8221; concert from this video.<br />
- Whoever organized the &#8220;benefit&#8221; concert may have gotten a band cheap or free and promised them the tape to help promote themselves. In which case they would not want any of the audience (or not much if there were not many attending). And considering the kinds of people who may have been there they may not have wanted their faces taped! (And compared to wanted posters all over the country! LOL!)</p>
<p>- The organizer may not have had any better venue (place for the concert) to offer than the side of a barn (or whatever). </p>
<p>- The band may travel with the lights we see and would have had to rent the kinds of lights used to shoot an audience (expensive) Or the power available in that location was very limited and could not support more lighting anyway. Lights take LOTS of power.</p>
<p>- Also the videographer&#8217;s website shows that he usually does weddings! So I don&#8217;t expect much from him at all.</p>

		<description>Yes I feel sorry for Misty and Ronald too, I don't believe they did this, I think this was done to them.  Misty is a child still and poor and brought up by parents who were no good and surounded by bad people through out her life.  But she is hiding something and intil she comes out with what ever it is she's gonna be digging her own jail sentence.  She just needs to know what ever her secret it cant be as bad as what she is looking guilty of.</description>

		<description>I for one thought Tim Miller had washed his hands of searching for little Haliegh,after Misty was cohursed into LDT,an Voice A. when claiming she failed.wasnt it stated that he was moving to greener pastures,with newly missing tots.I do hope people arent being used,for money,for family to live off of,from concert,suspious to me!!!.I am disgusted to the fact Ron was,accused of child abuse,after the missing child.An not during court,or before,child custody hearing.Division between ,Sheffields family,an Cummings family in a time like tis is disgusting.When our 2 yr.old loved one was murdered,same thing happened.2 familys,an adoptive Grandfathers family-had 3 wakes.I mean how sick is that.When grown people should pull together,for missing childs sake-they allow,a division spirit to creap in.Sheffield loved Haliegh no doupt.But had other children she was supporting.An letting Child support lapse so very long.Not so caring to me.Ron was soul care taker,yet he has been drug through the coals.An is real tears he cries,him an TN his mom.Are clearly grieving.I still dont think,little doper Misty,had a hand in Halieghs death.It was an abduction,plain an simple.Or this childs body would have been retrived before now.Hunters may find her little bones,during hunting season.We missed a female friend for 2/1/2 months.She was found by hunters,only bones,an pieces of cloths left.Never solved.My teens sleep like the dead,can clean their room,an they sleep through it.How much deeper would a young person on narcotics sleep.(Pain Pills) I have taken Roxys,an OCS in different times with a paineful back condition.Strong Nc,an will make a person sleep deep.Now I also believe its an outsider who watched Ronalds,work patterens,Mistys being home along with young children.May have knew layout of home.Child could have even known perp,an unlocked door for person.As kids can drag chairs,an unlock doors. Misty stated in sleepiness,Ron jr crawled over her,got up.Was in bed on other side when she woke at 3am.They makeum smart these days.AS to children fending for their selves with young parents,or care takers.Misty has many fingers pointed at her,because of being last one home.She no doupt cut phone off to keep from fussing with Ronald.He was angry,an felt betrayed.So he fussed.If he truly had been alarmed,he would have taken off,went home an checked on them.When repeatedly calling.When a person wakes,they are fuzzy headed,so she may not have noticed Haliegh missing until seeing back door blocked.An someone carring a heavy child,would block a door,to keep from having to manuver 2 doors,an a kid.No telling how long pedifile,watched this home,an goings on.Before he struck.God knows its wooded,an dark enough to slip away unnoticed.Inconsistencys,may very well be youth,my Grands do it all the time,cant get things straight.But they are being truthful.LD Test-dont hold any weight with me.Stress of being blamed,could cause malfunction in reading.Repeaded question-over,an over,can cause one to doupt ones own self.Serial killer passed LDT. I failed a test yrs ago,for a job.I KNOW I WAS TRUTHFUL.BUT I GOT RATHER AGROVATED,WHEN TESTER KEPT ASKING,SAME Q. OVER,AN OVER..Blood pressure went up,i was at the point of fussing the tester out. Now 50 miles from Halieghs home,a childs been abducted,murdered,an found in landfield-Killers still on the lose.Could he be the one who got Haliegh.Scent for the child was caught out back by K9 unit,that morning-followed,towards river,small print found,followed round u shape path,round blocks,1/2 block to CSX RR tracks.An scent lost.Just could it be someone took child ,to parked car,or truck.An Poof gone in the earlie hrs,never to be scene again.Whole familys have slept through child being taken from home.Many times.One lived too tell her story,how abductor snatched her.Some one needs not to take this wounded deer,of a girl(Misty) Have compassion.Take her in she needs structure in her life-not Donna Brocks of the world tricking her.Misty to, may wind up dead,if states not careful.I still hear her crying-stating why not take me-what would someone want with a little girl.LE,are baffled-they dont need a time line-all they need is to search Pedifiles,I know this is a baffling case,an they dont want to alarm county,of what they truly think(pervert took child) Ill Take Misty in.We as a people need to come together an pray. Many children before,an after Haliegh are still missing.Comfort these lost souls that are crying,an missing their little Haliegh today.One boy from 30 yrs ago,missing pic,on milk carton-never has been found.Ronald,C sheffield an G parents,GGparents,an all family members need much prayer,an uplifting.Little Ron jr has lost his little life partner-His Sissy..They have no closure.Always looking when they see a blond headed child,passing by.Wondering,longing,missing.an asking Why??

		<description>To Deecee
If you are so upset by what's written here then why do you read it? Simon, TJ and Cobra have all worked very hard to keep Haleigh's name in the news in hopes of finding her. Yet you come on this forum to slam them and the people who post here. 
I do believe Sam Watkins had the best of intentions with this fundraiser yet nothing is mentioned of the people who went to the concert nor anyone thanking the attendees for their contribution to help find this child. Why send Tim Miller money when he stated he isn't going to continue the search for Haleigh? Haleigh's loving family has lied and profited from her disappearance. Her loving mother chose drugs over her child and moves a distance away and cannot be bothered financially help support her children. A stranger donates money to cover her long overdue child support thus keeping her out of jail. Dad is chasing jailbait and making his drug abusing girlfriend care for his kids. Is RC paying child support for his other kid? He has managed to survive quite a while without a visible source of income. The grandparents did a fine job of raising their children if you overlook their offsprings drug use and arrests. It's not like anyone has to make much effort to make this family look bad.

Cobra digs into the disappearance and must have gotten too close to info about someone/something because he gets arrested for bringing in a child molester who he was told their bond had been revoked.

Simon never called anyone a thief nor is he writing rabble rousing articles. Nothing in this case makes any sense and it is not unreasonable to question what is going on in the hope of uncovering something that may bring Haleigh home.

I truly believe the family knows where Haleigh is but they have dug themselves in so deep that they continue to cover up.

And how do you know how Haleigh feels about anything? Do you know her or her family that you are so defensive of them? I sense you have ulterior motives in your posts.</description>

		<description>My only concern about the concert would be that if it is fake then it would lend to the idea of motive for the Sheffield's wanting to make money off of Haleigh and gives me question as to if she is being hidden by them for making money.  Crystal already had 12 thousand dollars back child support paid for her and the Haleigh bug foundation is now out of the picture it seems since they moved it to the grandmother Marie's place.  While I realize this is speculation but if people don't question everything to motive how else is Haleigh gonna be found.  The police are questioning motives on everyone, it's only natural we who follow the life and times of this family do the same thing because at the bottom of it all we want the same answers.  Where is Haleigh?  Who took her?  What family member would have motive to take her?  What friend of family member helped and has her hid?  This might be where she is interesting blog on where she was seen by someone and it fits.  Check it out.  It was reported to police 8 weeks ago too by TJ Hart too.  http://bit.ly/2wzCEM</description>

		<description>mel22 said,in November 8th, 2009 at 2:51 am Oct 13th archived video - interview with Staubs -Can hear him say that Misty Saunders went down to the bond office to have her name taken off as indemnitor on the bond of Snodgrass(last few minutes of the video). Why would she be the indemnitor on the bond of the person who who commited the crime against her? Could you speak on this subject on tomorrows show? Thanks!

mel22-D. Snodgrass did not commit any crimes against Misty Sanders-her name is Sanders not Saunders. The sex crimes he is charged with are with 8 and 16 yr. old females. Misty is the adult daughter of D. Snodgrass' former girlfriend Sheryln Sanders whom he was involved with at the time of the charges.
Here is a link to an article about this subject. There is also a link to a video at the top of the page-click on it and it will take you to a page to view the video. Sheryln Sanders is in the video.

		<description>Oct 13th archived video  - interview with Staubs -Can hear him say that Misty Saunders went down to the bond office to have her name taken off as indemnitor on the bond of Snodgrass(last few minutes of the video). Why would she be the indemnitor on the bond of the person who who commited the crime against her? Could you  speak on this subject on tomorrows show? Thanks!</description>

		<description>Where is this money and what is it going for? Why is there not a full disclosure of all the funds on Crystal and Ron's side This case just gets more dysfunctional day by day.Because of the last few cases of missing children I would not send a dime to any of these people.That's sad because there are people who need our help! It's not about Haleigh any more it's all about her parents, family  and a TV appearence to blow smoke. These parents need to be arrested for just being STUPID. They should have to wear a sign stating they're Stupid so everyone would know to stay away from them.</description>

		<description>hello everyone,

simon and jan, i appreciate what a great job you are doing focusing on haleigh and caylee and the other missing and murdered children.

today's subject of the fund raising concert for the haleighbug center.  i do not think there is anything wrong with raising questions, of course.  but, i was thinking myself, maybe it didn't turn out to be a success as far as having people show up.  i felt bad, if that is true.  if i remember right some were questioning raising money for the haleighbug center or maybe it was not advertised enough.  of course maybe it was a smashing sucess and we have not heard yet.  i bet we find out tomorrow on your show! 

i hope it is legal as i do not have permission to copy from crystal's sisters myspace - but this is the info she posted about the concert and if people wanted to donate money, where they could donate money in haleigh's name.

		<description>D Kerr, What cause are these donations going for?  What manner of searching to find Haleigh are the donations being used.. Not to the reward money? Not to hire or help hire a Private Investigator who could be out there searching for Haleigh.. Althought, first stipulated that the proceeds would go to PCSO, TES and to raise the Reward Money.. None.. So be defensive if you wish, and send your money into the Haleighbug Foundation.. But, somewhere down the road, your going to look around and ask. How are the donations being spent to find Haleigh? This has nothing to do with being hard hearted, plain and simple, what is being donated in Haleigh's name, should be used for Finding Haleigh.  But it isn't!!!  Its time to remove the loyality from the Grownups sides, and give your loyality to Haleigh, and Demand Honesty.. She's been gone far too long.</description>

		<description>If there was in fact a phony concert held, or phony tickets sold, wouldn't there also be angry people who paid for something they never received? Until people start coming forward to complain about paying for a concert that never occurred  ... this is frankly a non-issue and a waste of space.</description>

		<description>Just bring Haleigh home,who cares where the money comes from or what pot it goes in,how it is made.I would rather go to a make shift concert or fund raiser than a big over priced on any day because the money will go to the cause,instead of paying for the help.We did one with some no names and the money we made went to our cause.Why is it that every thing has to be bad.As long as the money is used to find Haleigh then great.I am sure they have to account for the money.Maybe they could not afford a big fancy bash and they did the best they could.I don't know but there has been so much mud slinging,and we as Haleigh's blogg family need to have a heart.If I had the money I would send it to Haleighbug in a second,to Tim and his search team and anyone that was working for the cause.If there was a concert I pray the made a lot of money and it is used to find this baby girl and bring her home.By the way I went to a concert just last Oct.,with a back drop just like that one.</description>

		<description>Yes, wrapitup, I do believe this is the concert in question.  It has been discussed on the radio show the past couple of weeks.  Everyone wants to know where all the money went.  Someone called in and said she was under the impression that the donations were going to be added to the reward money, yet that amount hasn't budged. 

Also, I am glad to hear that Levi will be joining the panel.  I have tuned in live to his past few show and even listened to some of his archived ones.  He has had several knowledgeable and informative guests, and last week he even featured Tim Miller himself.  I look forward to hearing from Levi tomorrow.</description>

		<description>My first post tho I have been lurking.

That is an extremely weird video of what is supposed to be a live concert. No sign nor sound of an audience. The videographer seems to specialize in weddings (and hopefully includes the guests in those videos). The following is from the band's website about the Haleigh concert (link at end) and it seems Sam Watkins organized the concert featuring his band. Links and a mailing address to send donations to Texas Equusearch. The last video has more of a wide angle shot and it shows no one anywhere near the stage.
Should I mention the the guy also does AC and Heating?

"On October 17, 2009, we held a Benefit Concert for missing child Haleigh Cummings.  
We had a dream of how it would all turn out.  Life is not a dream and reality doesn’t always live up to our dreams, sometimes it just works out in a different way.  

Like most of the country, we had been seeing Haleigh’s picture everywhere.  We fell in love with her; and because of our past experiences we felt close to her family even though we did not know them.  On October 17, we met them.  We met her mother Crystal Sheffield, her grandmother Marie Griffith, and her 10 year old aunt Savannah...."

		<description>This is the bands web page about the "event"on 10/17/2009. http://www.samwatkinscountry.com/Shows_and_Events.html There is a request for donations for TES to search for HaLeigh, and a report that Tim Miller met with Crystal and Marie that he will use all his resources to find HaLeigh. He also pledged to use all available resources in the statement posted on the TES web site,10/15/2009, in defense of the Donna Brock situation. http://texasequusearch.org/2009/10/message-from-tim-miller/  

From the Palatka Daily News
 By Kristin Chambers
Published: Saturday, October 24, 2009 3:26 AM EDT
The founder of a search team involved in the quest to find Haleigh Cummings says he believes the child is dead and authorities will be lucky to find her body.
Texas Equusearch founder Tim Miller, who has assisted law enforcement in the search for Haleigh since February, says the group focuses on finding children who still have a chance to be alive. That no longer includes the missing 6-year-old from Satsuma.
"In no way possible do I believe Haleigh is alive," Miller said. "Haleigh's going to be just as deceased tomorrow as she is today, or next week as she was six months ago, bottom line. And I hope I'm wrong about that. But let's try to save the ones that just disappeared or that we have leads on, with people that are cooperating, rather than fighting with these families."


This statement was made just one week after the benefit concert and 10 days after his statement was posted at the TES web site. He (Tim Miller) more or less said that he was not going to use his resources looking for a child he believes to be dead when he could use them to find a missing person whom might still be alive. This is a complete contradiction and a change for TES who have searched for both living and deceased loved ones. I don't know what to think about this Benefit Concert, or Tim Miller and TES. I have long admired Tim and his organization but lately I have seen him doing things that just don't sit right with me.</description>
