This is a story that I had hoped I would not be writing. It was one year ago that 5 year old Haleigh Cummings went missing. If we are to believe her then ‘babysitter’, then stepmon Misty Croslin, the little girl was snatched from the very room that Misty was sleeping in.
It was a tragic story when it broke, and is still a tragic story one year later.
Where is Haleigh Cummings?
Most of the press has moved in and out of the story. It was headline news on Headline News for a while, in fact Nancy Grace does occasionally still air the story but only when there is BOMBSHELL news.
A few of us have stuck with the story, sometimes there has not been much to report on. But we have laboured on. What I find curious and humorous, were it not for the seriousness of the case are some of the idiotic, asinine and completely incorrect statements that get published on the topic of Haleigh Cummings.
There is one guy that seems to have a hatred for myself, TJ Hart, and just about everyone else that is covering the story. So poor is is his readership, that he even leaves comments about his article to himself!
One wonders how he can even find time to write these articles, apparently he is a serious contributor to Wikipedia, and also runs a number of web sites on natural health and nutrition. He is one busy guy!
In a recent comment to himself he said:
I prefer to think of TJ Hart as the single greatest screw-up in the Haleigh Cummings Tragedy.
Next to throwing away a golden opportunity to provide real “video†to the public which he is claiming to help, his last screw-up was him reporting only four incident reports at ttp://www.thesky973.com/pages/6210686.php hen there were six (6) reports. Of course, the first two reports which he left out for unknown reasons were the most important ones, IMHO.
I am sure in Tj’s mind, he is Haleigh’s guardian angel. From my point of view, he is a TOTAL screw-up.Â
Tj Hart was to too stupid, IMHO, to recognize a rather obvious email hoax (remember that farce?). And, he is apparently too stupid to figure out that the public wants to be able see these videos in their raw state so they can figure out for themselves whether Nancy Grace, or somebody else, was trying to pull a fast one on them. Only a fool would accept TJ’s opinion, as an expert witness, on anything.
Being first might be a concern for a reporter trying to make MONEY off of Haleigh Cummings, but it is of no concern to the public interested in doing their own research.
Tj Hart, you can go back to sleep again!Â
What an idiot! What a complete imbecile!
What this man does not understand is the case, he also is absolutely clueless and stupid! Go back to selling herbal remedies, at the last check Wikipedia had removed your ban!
Of all the people that have reported on the search for Haleigh Cummings, TJ is the best. I have no idea how many phone calls and emails we have traded in the search for Haleigh Cummings. But I do know that TJ Hart is one of the best people I have ever met. This is one man that has gone way beyond the call of duty, TJ has not dropped this story, he has stuck with it.
Why this Internet ‘A-hole’ wants to pick on TJ and I is an unknown. But we do not give up. We will continue covering the story. It is sad that people like this idiot feel the need to reach out and talk rubbish, but it is their right.

Well until now I have not seen this and feel lucky to have missed it. TJ you are doing a wonderful job. You even have patients with us when we sometimes go a little nuts. I think he understands that we really only want Haleigh to be found and we get frustrated just like he does. jmo
T. J. Hart has done an exceptional job in reporting on Haleigh and the side shows. Thank you, T. J.!
Thanks to Simon and Jan for sharing info with us this past year. A special thank you to Simon and Jan for the radio program every Sunday!
I admire your hard work and dedication to the Haleigh Cummings story. I wonder how many would have just walked away like main stream media TV stations (unless there is a “bombshell” headline).
Still looking for an answer on Ron’s poly test. All I can find is that he states he passed but he also says Misty passes. Non confirmation from LE. Anyone have anything else?
Nothing else to do I guess.
Simon, as they say, “no good deed goes unpunished”. I am sorry you and TJ are getting attacked.
TJ is the only media reporter in the whole bunch that has been truthful and accurate in his reporting on this case. He has shown integrity, when the others have displayed bias and deliberate manipulation. Not to mention, he’s been on the ball, and is usually the first one to get the story.
Thank you TJ for your fantastic coverage of this case, and your honesty and integrity. And thank you Jan & Simon for providing us with the best forum on the whole web to discuss this case.
Sorry…I should have added, also, thanks to Simon & Jan for their own great reporting and getting the stories out to us quickly, and the radio shows. It is all greatly appreciated and I am so glad I found my way to this site.
YOUR THE BEST TJ, I SIT AT HOME IN THIS AWFUL HEAT AND LISTEN TO ALL YOU GUYS, HAVE TO SAY THANK GOD FOR YOU PEOPLE,WE ARE SO FAR AWAY FROM ALL THAT IS HAPPENING IN FLORIDA SO ALL WE CAN DO IS WRITE EMAILS OF SUPPORT AND PRAY FOR ALL THESE CHILDREN, BUT DID LITTLE HALEIGH EVER HAVE A CHANCE WITH THESE LOSERS. I’m losing my baby because of horrible assaults on him by his carers, and cry all day just trying to keep strong for him, yet i see people killing their kids without a thought and no remorse, it makes me sick, if i could take all the little children i would.Thanks for what you do i will keep listening and reading your blogs. GOD BLESS YOU.
PS What’s up with these bloggers who have it in for you guys, it’s these idiots that make us waste time reading their crap and lose that what is the main focus, findng the child

romewi, only others I have found after searching for days is Nancy Grace saying it, in which I believe her source was Ron, and AnneINTN claiming she has some inside sorce stating for a FACT he did, but said she can not give up her “source”..

Laughing in your face Buddy!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yes, who said that the posting in the Haleigh Room had RC and Misty Croslin at the top? I do not think so. You would put HC at the top and under her most investigators would but her parents. Crystal and Ron. I think that is who is at the top and Crystals line stops. Then you have Ron and next to him is Misty.
FYI
Thanks for the info Buddy.
oh my, looks like someone got hacked..
I wonder if its that “Timmy” guy?
He seems a tad angry..
That is just how it works, you start with the parents, they are seperated and have had custody issues. That is where most investigators would start. With CS and RC.
So you have HC lines to CS and RC with a line to Misty (next to him).
I am confused. Who is it that doesn’t like TJ Hart? I can only think of two people you could be talking about (wish you would have simply named the person). It is either Tim H or Art H. Which one is it?? I don’t like to play guessing games. With all due respect, there are enough in this case.
And BTW, TJ Hart has done a fine job. If it were not for him, we would all be in the dark when it comes to Haleigh.
Wowza, well Art seemes to be taking his anger out on TJ these days but, the ridicule and teasing Art has taken over his pumpkin tan is sending him over the edge, he has to take it out on someone. Look at how it rolled:
1.) Art is called to the scene by Cobra with a cool 5 grand dangling before him, Art of course accepts as he is a broken down reporter w/no other media approaching him, he takes the case.
2.) Art gets absolutely NOWHERE except to hear a few blurbs from Nay Nay and Misty’s 100 year old Mom. That’s Art’s BIG “bombshell and exclusive” ha! Real award winning reporting there.
3.) Gets caught up in doctoring photo’s.
4.) Hires another washed up loser to run his message board, in which she runs to the ground and now has all of 3 people posting, accomplished? On top of it, he can’t even admit he’s wrong when everyone and their brother tell him what an idiot she is, instead he chooses his pride over reality and keeps her around, dead weighting the website to a handful of visitors.
5.) Has had a tv pilot sitting on hold for how long now? How long has Vegas Bail been in the works? 4 years? 5 years? Another FAILING on Art’s list of failures.
I could go on and on, but I’m sure you get the picture. Thing is, Art is only jealous of TJ and so because he can no longer get the inside scoop and because TJ doesn’t give Art the inside scoop to steal and claim as his own, Art is PISSED! Read the world wide web, he’s going down as a joke on the internet. His appearances on NG are laughable at best.
Don’t worry Teej, everyone knows Art is the idiot and you are the real reporter. Don’t stoop to his level, he really isn’t worth it. Great job again Simon & Jan for exposing the imbecile Art Harris for what he is.
My own opinions.
I have no wish to give the idiot credit, but it is not Timmy or art. Even though both of them deserve a good beating.
I am not a ART fan at all. Puke!!!!
TJ all the way. Kudos to you TJ.
wrapitup, it is a blogger who sometimes post here and also has his own blog..

*********************************************
Believe me Buddy,Ann is one of the very few who will tell the God’s honest truth,I do not know her persoaonally but she has put alot in this search for Haleigh andwhen she tell’s you she has info and a source take it from me….she’s telling the truth!!!!
Buddy,have you ever heard of leak’s! I’m sure you have,so if she gives you the info and you pass it,and they pass it……I rest my case!
I’ve been blogging with her for quite awhile now and she’s never told me anything either,that’s how I know she can be trusted!
Simon,Just let it roll right off when they sling garbage on your back.in the end everyone involved will know who told the truth and who didn’y just set out to fill up their billfold!
Attaboy,I agree there!
I think it’s actually quite amazing he is so unsure of himself to email a blogger about who they “are consorting with”!
He is one I wouldn’t trust to lead my dog to do his bussines!!

Amen Treece!!!
Sounds like someone’s had their string pulled!!! I have no idea who you are & don’t really care. Are we a little bitter? Panties in a wad? Don’t be hating on TJ. TJ has shown time & time again his Heart, he has went above & beyond in the Haleigh case. TJ didn’t buy into NG Bombshells & AH wanna be fame whore crap, and no one is buying your BS either. TJ seems to be one of the ONLY people that remembers Haleigh is a little girl thats missing & not someone’s breaking news. If you can do so much better, than do it. Walk the walk then, if not shut up and do something to help find the little girl, or just go crawl back under your rock.
Mr. Hart you have Heart!!! <3
P.S. AH PLEASE lay off the tanning cream, your head is starting to look like a sweet potato!!!
“Haleigh Cummings – One Year And Few Clues Later”
This is the title of this article, but only a few sentences are actually about haleigh. The rest is about a blogger you don’t like.
Couldn’t you pass on defending TJ’s honor for today of all days? Really, this makes you and TJ look like selfish a-holes.
So is it JHG? I was doing a google search for steph watts a while back and I found a rather unappealing piece he did on steph and that was the first I had ever heard of him. I don’t read his blog, not my taste, However…
I do enjoy listening to Steph Watts’s Blog talk radio show as well as Simon’s and I listen to Levi’s also, but lately…Levi’s show has upset me a tiny bit, but I still listen anyways, it’s still a great show…But…
TJ HART!!! You pour your heart into it man and I want to thank you from the bottom of mine. YOU, are 100% for Haleigh and that’s how it should be. You have my utmost Respect!
Thank goodness T.J. and Simon keep us up to date on the Haleigh case. Noone else will. You people have done some hard work on this case. Thank you. I look forward to the radio program every Sunday.
TJ is the only person I would trust on this case. I can’t stand Cobra and feel he is a giant pool of lies.
Not wild about Simon either but TJ is a salt of the earth man and has all of my respect. This person talking smack about TJ is just one of MANY people who are just doing all they can to become part of this case.
While I am one of TJ’s biggest fans…..I really had hope this article was about HALEIGH….
THanks TJ, for ALL you do in regards to this case.
I was sleeping peacefully next to Holly, then a 3:15 I woke up suddenly. I instantly realized that it was exactly 1 yr since Haleigh was discovered “missing”.
i am just checking in too. went out to shovel in the middle of the night. (i bet my neighbors are plotting their revenge.) i would not have realized it, hollys gmom. it is true, i will say a prayer right now.
♥♥♥HALEIGH♥♥♥

ANyone think this is related to this case & DB???
well, is jhg jealous of what tj is able to do? what a waste of space on the internet. maybe he thought if he could engage in a fight with someone credible, it would give him some credibility! DOPE!!! i don’t read his blog either, just nasty!
Good morning, all, sorry so many of you are shoveling snow, I am sure my tuen will come this afternoon as the winter weather moves into our area.
My prayers for Haleigh and her family as we begin our second year of not knowing where she is or what happened to her. My thanks to Art, TJ, Simon, and Jan, who have not forgotten this little one.
Can’t wait to view the Brock tapes…..
to see what he/she has to say !!
Well, whoever this loser is that is trashing TJ, he got what he wanted…ATTENTION.
TJ – blow it off. Your heart is in the right place and you’ve done an incredible job.
Now, back to the missing child case….
Still searching for Haleigh and praying for her family.
Wowza, would this articulate fool blasting TJ be a nose-job thief or a brown-n-white striped baldo?
What is amazing to me is that BROCK is the only one who seems to mention Haleigh in her phone calls….Ron and Misty….they are all about clean underwear, food, cussing, threatening and posturing….but no mention of Haleigh. Their calls are all about what can everyone do for them….get them out of there…bail them out…get them money for snacks, minutes on the phone, blah, blah, blah……Anyone brings up Haleigh to Ron and he has to go take a shower. Anyone brings up Haleigh to Misty and she gets all hateful and says “I don’t know nothing”…..Hmmmmm……
JB and De-Con: I don’t think the whacko idjut taking such nasty pot-shots at TJ is AH or whoever you might have mentioned, De-Con. (Fortunately I have not had to see this idjut’s nose and hopefully won’t ever have to).
I think he’s a self-made wanna-be “commentator” who is obviously not getting the attention he wants! So I agree, that we should not give it to him. He’s posted here a couple of times in the past – equally hateful comments – and I assumed the purpose was to advertise himself (if you clicked on his screen name it took you to his web site).
I just wanted to clarify – hopefully correctly – that it is not the people you all mentioned, I don’t think. It’s someone way way more obscure who should STAY obscure (as in invisible, go away!) LOL!
Yes, JB…the only ones who have no fear of talking about her….are the ones who are not involved in her disappearance…IMO
TC is too willing to talk for it to have been him, or only assecory after the fact…IMO
DB has no fear of mentioning her because she is not involved in that case/part. I can hardly wait to hear what all she had to say.
Today is 1yr 1 day….I hope there is finally a break or someone finally “fesses up” but I doubt it. The only two who REALLY know WILL NEVER tell, too incrimminating. IMO the best we can hope for is someone on the “fringes” to tell a piece of info that leads LE to the truth.
JB-Maybe they did…Maybe that could have been in the redacted part? Maybe…Maybe not…Will we ever know?

——————-
WHO is JHG?? I find these blogs to be extremely cryptic. IMHO, if we KNOW something, go to LE. If we are not sure, WHY play these cryptic games?? This is about a child. I seriously don’t get all the LOL’s and humor.
Also, Simon. You must have been good friends at one time to call Tim H. “Timmy”.
Excerpt;
SATSUMA, Fla. — Later Wednesday, relatives of Haleigh Cummings will hold a candlelight vigil in the Satsuma neighborhood where she vanished a year ago.
But after the ceremony, there will be no one related to Haleigh living in the neighborhood. The final connection to the family moved out last weekend.
Ronald Cummings lived in a trailer with his girlfriend, Misty, a year ago when the girl disappeared. Deputies made the trailer off-limits for weeks, and her family never moved back into the home in the Satsuma neighborhood near Highway 17.
Misty’s brother, Tommy Croslin, and her father, Hank Croslin Sr., lived about 100 yards away in the same neighborhood.
But neighbors say Hank Croslin Sr. moved out last Saturday, leaving behind some broken furniture and toys on the road. The seven neighbors First Coast News talked to Tuesday said they were glad all the relatives are gone.

wrapitup – Not sure I understand your post above but if you thought that JHG knows anything about Haleigh, I’m sure that’s not true. He’s all about promoting himself on the net and does so by putting down others.
He’s not worth mentioning.
The Family Circus Steals Haleigh Spotlight

I do not have a daughter. I don’t have a son, either. So I hate to even suggest I understand the pain felt by Ronald Cummings during the past year. But I can safely suggest the father of Haleigh Cummings has too often taken the spotlight off the search for his little (girl).

I have NO CLUE who JHG is. Did you not read my whole post?
This has been the only website, other than CNN, that I have returned to for the 411 on little Haleigh Cummings, and other missing children. Thanks TJ Hart and Simon Barrett. The Caylee memorial had been over a little while when this alleged kidnapping was reported online. I have followed her story ever since. Still praying that if she’s alive that she isn’t suffering, and if she is gone, that those who are responsible for her death will be brought to justice.
wrapitup, don’t get so up tight, without humor along the way this case would make us all nuts, It is John Gohde.
Thanks. I just see a lot of crytpic codes. Never heard of this John Gohde.
I am just upset that today is one year and we have no idea if this poor child is still alive or not.
You know I am a humorous person but really, I wish people would just spell out what they hay they are talking about. Thanks, Treece!!
wrapitup: I’m sorry. I honestly couldn’t remember his whole name when I responded to you. In fact if I’d put down what I thought it was I would have gotten it wrong. I’m glad that Treece told you. Although I don’t like him getting the attention – which is exactly why he’s behaving the way he is – it’s definitely nicer – which is typical of Treece!
to let people know rather than leave them guessing which is so frustrating. I know. I’ve been in the same boat many times trying to guess what some initials of other sites/people mean over the last year.
Anyway,
sorry, again. I should have cut the word “anyway” at the end. Please ignore it. Just an unfinished thought.
Good gosh,
What is up with reporters these days? There was a time when reporters were gutsy enough to take on the most tubulent of issues, risk jail time to get to the truth, risk their very lives to report on a story, and even take on the president of the US, knowing and accepting the full consequences. Now they are nothing but cry babies. Actually HURT by a little critisim. Scared off of stories if intimidated in the least. Reporters have gone from reporting real news and social issues, to doing tabloid journalism.
THis is my observation and everyone else I have talked with about journalism today. I dont want a debate on poor journalism. I can see it everyday.
I have read articles on both blogs..and today of all days we should concentrate on Haleigh, not on a petty feud between TJ Hart and John Goede. They both are working toward a common goal and that`s to keep Haleigh in the spotlight until she is found. John Goede tend to be brutal but I think its kind of refreshing, He tends to tell it like it is..whether it be good, bad or ugly! TJ seems to be kinder in his remarks, but he definately has been informative when it comes to Haleigh. All who report on Haleigh..TJ, JHG, Art Harris, and Simon Barrett..all keep us informed. But today of all days, the one year anniversary of Haleigh`s disappearance, we need to put this “blooger war” aside and concentrate on that precious child. She will never be forgotten!
Well I have a lot to do today but I stand convinced that Lindsy is the Key not Misty. I am annoyed but not shocked by Donna Brock. To be there when the pills are sold and then try to excuse her self out of it is just low. She committed the crime take the consequences suck it up butter cup and move on. I finally took the time to read this letter of Nay Nay. I had heard repeated reports by Nancy Grace and Art Harris that the letter stated Nay Nay directly her self claims they all went to a party and Haleigh over dosed and then to the pond. This is what annoys me about Nancy Grace why twist stuff. The letter speaks clearly and says by the Author “Nay Nay” that Police told her that someone told them that she, Misty & others were all out at a party. Haleigh ate the pill and over dosed and to the pond. She then expresses anger at the one who she accuses of telling the story to Police when she follows it with telling the receiver of the letter he knows he was with her that night. Police actually searched the pond over that wasted all this time. When will they get it in their thick skulls Misty does not know. Is someone going to have to get the drill out drill a hole in their heads and pour it in for them to get it? Praying for case to go cold and then this little girl brought Justice.

First coast news has reported that all of the Croslins have now moved out of the neighborhood.
The candle light vigil will be held tonight @ 6pm. Praying for Haleigh. Haleigh your family has grown enormously and we all are saying our prayers for you. You are not and will not be forgotten. We all are still looking for you. Sending you my love and prayers. May God comfort you until you are found.
New post
Dustyrose,
As long as LE have NOTHING, they will continue to publically distance themselves from the case by stating Misty holds the key. They will protect themselves from public scrutiny by focusig the publics attention toward Misty. As long as the public blames Misty for this case not being solved, NOBODY questions LE. I AM questioning LE.
robin – It is not a blogger war. I’m sure JHG wishes it was. He’s just not important enough to warrant one.
JHG is a mean-tempered, mean-spirited jealous idjut again unjustly attacking a good person who is a professional with integrity (something JHG obviously knows nothing about)in order to get attention for himself. And that is all I have to say about JHG.
