It has certainly been an interesting day. Once again the momentum in the case to resolve the disappearance is building. My good friend TJ Hart had the unique opportunity to get a look inside the PCSO’s HaLeigh center. He is the first journalist to be allowed access to this inner sanctum. You can read his article here.
When he called me shortly after his visit and told me he had pictures, I was salivating. He had pictures of some charts on the wall. One might even be the official view of the elusive time line in the case. Within minutes I had the pictures in my hands, oh the joy of technology!
This was the one that caught my eye.
It didn’t take more than a couple of minutes to get the story and pictures published. TJ had made an interesting comment though, while the PCSO had indeed let him look into the heart of the investigation they had kept him far way from being able to read the charts on the wall.
My mind went into overdrive. Today’s modern digital camera’s are far superior than the human eye. Maybe I could enhance the image with some of my software. Alas that ploy did not work, the images had been compressed for use online.
I do not give up easily though. The uncompressed images were what were needed….
Anyone that accuses the PCSO of not being a formidable and detail oriented group should think again!
The pictures were not taken by TJ, but were taken by a member of the team searching for Haleigh. TJ received the compressed versions rather than the originals. Now that is what I call attention to detail!
I still think that there are some intelligent deductions that can be made from the compressed chart. It is clearly a flow chart. It is likely that the top entry is Haleigh Cummings, the two lines from it most likely point to Ronald Cummings (left) and Misty Croslin (right). It does not take much rocket science to note that the Ronald link stops, the Misty branch however, grows at quite a large rate.
This is all pure guesswork on my behalf. But it seems to make sense.
Update: The Tommy And Misty jailhouse tapes are out. We have access to some of them. We are hoping to have all 5 hours of them available tomorrow. The current plan is to host them all on an FTP site, details will be released as soon as we can get this set up.

I think this is before the unknown group bailed onthe bail out. No one has told them they arent interested in bailing her out. but who are Talent, linda and john?
TJ wasnt kidding when he said it would come out fast and frurious. WHOO I am tired just jumping from each thread. Who the heck is Talent, john and linda? Does anyone remember any of these names?
People were yelling at Misty and her brother when they were out talking to their parents and Misty’s brother was talking to his wife… They were yelling… WHERE IS THE BABY AT???.
starbright did you hear Hank sr. say someones name Talent and he couldnt come visit? who is Talent and who are John and Linda?
what? a talent scout is interested in misty? omfg what next?
Tobias, yes, Hank said, Talent can’t come see you. I have never heard of him or John & Linda.
I also felt sorry for Hank, even though he is a mess he had a father’s heart for his daughter right then. This entire thing is sad, shattered lives.
WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH ART HARRIS AND COBRA? I HAVE NO RESPECT 4 THEM,COBRA TRYING TO MAKE A NAME 4 HIMSELF AND ART TRYING TO MAKE A DOLLAR OFF POOR LIL’ HALEIGH AND WILL DO AND SAY ANYTHING TO PLEASE NANCY GRACE…WHAT A SUCK UP,A WASH UP BOTTOM FEEDER.WHAT WON’T ART HARRIS AND COBRA DO??
Doesent anyone seem to get that everyone connected with this case is out for themselves, and their 15 min of fame? No such thing as “giving up my life for Haleigh”. Good gosh folks, None of these people including Cobra or Art have EVER MET HALEIGH. I DONT BELIEVE ANY OF THEM ARE FIGHTING SOLEY FOR A GIRL THEY NEVER MET. It just does not make sense, and happens only in the movies. They are in love with public recognition, NOTHING MORE. Once you understand that, NOTHING THEY DO WILL SHOCK YOU.
Why does PSO have their maps on the wall sideways. Just curious as to what the benifit would be?
Billybob
That is how someone hangs a map when their head is screwed on side ways.
I’m playing Devil’s advocate here……….
What IF, Tommy and Misty truly don’t have any info regarding Haleigh, what IF they really don’t know where she is or what happened?
I was reassured to hear Jeff Hardy state that LE does NOT have tunnel vision, and they have NOT cleared ANYONE.
Yes in all seriousness they need to look at everyone. However I don’t think they have been for me if a Police officer once tries to manipulate me & it can be irrelevant over nothing significant I loose any trust or respect in them. Misty being a ring leader of these drug sales when it is clear she is the youngest. The adults made their own choices and on their own made arrangements for further deals with out her playing any part, case in point; Ronald Cummings. Let the facts present their self but I despise Police who try to manipulate it makes me wonder what else they are manipulating maybe everything. They loss my confidence in them with Tommy and manipulating that whole situation. Find the truth, face the truth, bring it to light but never manipulate. I simply do not have it in me to have confidence in manipulating cops. I just think I’m being manipulated again.
God Bless Haleigh and all her families
Really? LE does NOT have tunnel vision? Isent Jeff Hardy the one who continues to publically state–”Misty holds the key”, yet has no evidence to arrest her for obstructing an investigation? If they do NOT have tunnel vision, why do they keep declaring that Misty holds the key? I am assuming by this, they think Misty has enough information to lead them to Haliegh. If they had any evidence of this, they would have arrested her for hindering an investigation. They have nothing other than their belief that Misty must know SOMETHING, since she was in the MH. What if she does not? What if she was still under the effects of drugs from her THREE DAY DRUG BINGE, and remembers NOTHING? They are back to square 1, and the kidnapper has a YEAR head start. What are the odds he will get caught?
Actually I believe he said Misty is a key, not the key. There is probably many keys and Tommy is another
Unless the press all have it wrong, Jeff Hardy is quoted as saying “Misty holds THE key”. He has NOT said ANYONE ELSE holds a key.
I don’t think the Sheriff is the one repeating the Misty is the Key mantra in the media. Try Ryan, Bowling, Hancel, Greenwood, Schauland.
“Misty is the Key” means that the task force does not believe Misty was even there to babysit that night. The sooner she realized that she didn’t forget the events of that day and night, the sooner she could tell them who filled in the gaps in her memory for her.
Somebunny needs to be very worried tonight. I do not think its any body named Croslin.
FlaBean, what does this mean? Somebunny needs to be very worried tonight. I do not think its any body named Croslin.
It is not Art Harris trying to bond out Misty. It is Leonard Padilla. Art called around trying to find out who it was that was trying to bond her out.Art is keeping the family updated to what is going on with Leonard and his decision. Misty stated Cobra said He will Bail her out. They need to leave her there. Cobra tried to work with Misty and do the re-inactment at the mobile home. Misty did not do it. Leonard Padilla offered her a deal more than likely for the exchange for the truth and where Haleigh was located.Misty did not take his offer. Well guys Misty has had a change of heart.
Treece I could not help to feel for them as well. I even teared up. You can see that her parents do love her and Tommy. Hank Sr. did give her the right advice. Tell the truth!!!!
I was wondering who Tina was? Misty said she pulled off with her belongings in her vehicle as she was being apprehended. My guess is LE knows who Tina is and has Mistys cell phone and the rest of her belongings.
It is now clear that her family was trying to get her out of there when Haleigh first went missing. Hank told her he wished she would of stayed away. He wished Misty would of went to Michigan when they tried to get her to in the beginning. It is also clear of Hanks personal feelings on Ron and who he blames. These parents need to realize it is both of their faults equally. They are old enough to know right from wrong.
I do believe Misty has info on what happened the night Precious Haleigh vanished.
flabean,
I agree that misty was probably NOT in the MH that night. It would explain all the inconsistencies in her story. Perhaps she asked someone to go over to the MH to look in on the kids? That “someone” may have taken haleigh? But even to me, this does not make much sense. why not tell police? so she was away, so what? It is better than being accused of kidnap and possibly murder. If she asked no one to go to the MH, it may have been an aquantainance or stranger that took haliegh, in which case Misty would NOT KNOW who took Haleigh.
I have a hunch that even if Misty came clean about that night, we will be no closer to finding Haliegh.
Leonard Padilla? All that any of these guys are going to do is have her out for a week or two take back the bond and have weeks of NG “BombShells” of made up bias stories to earn their moment. It seems that Hank SR has the best of intentions at heart but in his own actions or lack of them is being a bit of a hypocrite, sending mixed messages. He asked his daughter to be completely honest yet in his own actions he has not been. When he returned the gun he could of returned the cheques the fraud cheque was cashed after the return of the gun. He tells his daughter to stay away from that “shit” his words not mine yet he is currently waiting to go up on charges of Doctor shopping for prescription pills. He tells his daughter to tell the whole truth yet to date has not offered any explanation as to why the lies over Tommy Croslin’s statements. IMHO he was speaking truth when he said he does not want to loose either and it is that factor that is preventing him from being completely honest with LE, pot meet kettle. The mothers behaviour is completely unhealthy and bound to cause distrust if she truly had concerns express them to LE but why go on national TV what Mother does that? I don’t think Misty is with holding anything I think she was in a deep sleep brought on by coming off drugs and complete exhaustion from being up for hours and a draining relationship work out that no child at 17 should be having. Those over night relation ship work outs are draining enough for adults who are mature enough & have life experience enough to take them on. Some one knew Misty was exhausted had access to the home and was not a stranger because Haleigh opened the door to him/her. I agree that this little girl going missing is a result of several adults who made poor choices, adults who are actually her biological relations Misty is an easy blame a complete scape goat
JMHO
God Bless Haleigh and all her families
Tobias, The last name is spelled Tallent.. You can find in PCSO listings for the last 3 years.
Misty has an Aunt Linda and a male relative named John…Uncle.
it sure does appear misty was helped with her “story”. i believe on 911 and to the first responding officer she told the same version. it changed after that. as if she had been corrected. or they went for a slightly better version. or maybe even that she had told the wrong story. if they are not guilty, they look guilty of something.
