Due to a prior engagement Sundays program had to be shortened to one hour, but in that hour we managed to squeeze in a lot if updates on on the cases that we have been following.
There has been a significant event in the Somer Thompson case. Jarred Mitchell Harrell has been charged with the murder of 7-year-old Somer Thompson.
Harrell has been in custody since Feb. 11, 2010 when authorities arrested him in Meridian, Mississippi on child pornography charges originating in Florida. Harrell was then extradited to Florida. Harrell pleaded not guilty to 55 counts of possessing child pornography, making child pornography and molestation Wednesday morning, March 10, 2010 in Clay County, Florida.
To finally charge Harrell with Somer’s murder investigators have relied on DNA evidence, witness statements, and some sort of admission by Harrell.
In the Mark Bookal case, missing since last December there has been a sad development. The body of a young boy found. Authorities are saying that it could take up to a month for a positive id. However they do seem fairly certain that it is Mark Bookal as no other children in the area are missing.
The Caylee Anthony case was also back in the news this week, with allegations that George Anthony had an affair with one of the women who helped search for Caylee Anthony.
River Cruz, whose real name is Krystal Holloway, has sold her story to the National Enquirer claiming that she and George Anthony were involved in an affair during the time that volunteers nationwide were searching for his granddaughter.
It was also reported that Ms. Cruz attempted suicide last Thursday by taking an overdose of pills
By far the most interesting news last week was the release of almost 1000 pages of evidence, much of which was in the form of interview transcripts. While there was nothing that could be called a ‘smoking gun’ they certainly filled in a lot of gaps, and you can start to get an insight into the directions that Law Enforcement took in coming to their conclusions. I do plan on examining these transcripts in greater depth on another artice, stay tuned.
Here is one little gem for you to consider, Cindy Anthony has repeatedly said that she did not know how to get in touch Zanny the nanny – well on July 16/2009 she claimed to have given the number to the cops!
The Haleigh Cummings case continues to lumber laboriously on it way. A couple of news sources reported that Misty has supposedly has failed yet another polygraph, this is her fourth or fifth, my question is why would anyone suspect that this one be any different?
Tommy Croslin apparently wants to do a poly, but his lawyer claimed on national TV earlier this week that he wanted a neutral examiner rather than someone connected with the prosecution.
The other big event last week is the William Cobra Staubs has resolved his problem with the authorities in Putnam County. After several weeks of negotiations a plea deal was signed on Wednesday. Needless to say Cobra is a very happy man as this opens the door to him continuing on with his career. Cobra’s joy may not be shared by some other though. From comments that he has made both on and off the record it is clear that while this chapter may be at a close, the book is hardly finished.
If you missed the live broadcast, you can listen to the recorded version here.
Denny Griffin also spent a few moments talking about his latest adventure, CrimeWire, this might just be the next big hit on TV.

Good show Simon & Jan
Good show Simon & Jan
great show simon and jan
Thank you Simon, Jan and Denny!!!
Ditto.
You guys do such a great job.
Perhaps its because we always have the same opinions….. and I believe the saying is great minds do think a like.
Thanks so much.
You know the definition of insanity, “doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.” Maybe Misty is going for the insanity defense. hahahahaha! Would 100 polygraphs make a difference?
DDC, now that is funny.
Why not try “Sodium Pentothal” on Misty? If she is not quilty of anything then she should agree to this. It may be a long shot but nothing else has done any good. Just a thought.
DCC, now that IS funny
. islandgirl, whatever Misty will agree to, I say “GO.”
Islandgirl, just offer her FREE drugs I think she’d take them.
I predict if Tommy takes a LDT he will fail. I have reason to believe Tommy is involved in Haleigh’s disappearance, and he is ready to talk. But I previously hadn’t quite figured out what it will take to get him talking. Now that it has come up that this is what he wants again (I think back in August he told a news crew he would take a LDT), I think a failed polygraph could be the trigger to do just that.
If Tommy talks, it would be better if he didn’t take a polygraph test since that can easily mislead. Good, tough, thorough follow-up questions are better than any poly.
Aja Johnson abductor’s car found…2 bodies at the scene. one inside the car, one outside. Michelle Sigona Child Advocate says her US Marshall contact on the scene says bodies are Hobbs & Aja
HollysGmom, Know a bit about Aja, who is Hobbs?

******************************************
RIP precious Aja, such a tragic ending for this innocent little girl.
Oh, I am so sad. I was confused about Aja Johnson. I do know who Hobbs is, heartbreaking.
I’ve been waiting for the next Aja update but none just yet. OSBI say they have no reason to believe the remains are NOT Hobbs & Aja. Conifrmed 1 adult body & 1 child’s body.
Poor litle Aja. Why didn’t he just let her go??!!!
When does Misty, Tommy, and Ronald go back to court?
My heart goes out to Ajas family. May she rest in the comfort of the Lords arms. I am sure although Justice may not be served here on earth for Hobbs,he will serve his punishment in the after life. Praying for all of the families with missing children. May God return them all home.
God Bless little Aja and Marc. Two more little angels lost. May they rest in eternal peace in the loving arms of our heavenly father.
At least the ANIMAL that killed Somer will now face justice which is more than we can presently say about our precious little Haleigh! Will one of these losers PLEASE tell the truth so we can bring Haleigh home! UGH!
Morning, JB!
Isn’t it something? In the space of about one week, three mysteries have been solved, although tragically. The bodies of Marc Anthony Bookal and Aja Johnson were found (although yet to be positively identified). And Somer Thompson’s killer admitted to the heinous crime.
Now if only some information would come to light about little Haleigh!
BTW, JB. I don’t call those who commit these horrible acts, “animals.” Most kill in defense or for food. Not for vicious, sick thrills. They are truly MONSTERS!
Good Morning m2c and you are correct. I LOVE animals. These freaks are truly MONSTERS! Oh, and sorry about the damp hammock. I left a roll of papertowels and a new box of chocolates to make it up to you! lol
Oh, jiminy crickets, JB. Darn good thing you left the chocolates or you’d be in BIG trouble.
I’m going to knit you a pair shorts, slightly over-sized and with a draw string waist you can cinch tight, so they’ll fit nicely over the Depends I’m sending you! LOL!
Well, I had purchased some piddle pads but I piddled before I got to the pad. I look forward to receipt of my new shorts and Depends! LMAO Either that or I’m going to have to be kept on a MUCH shorter leash within piddle pad range! ROFLMAO
P.S. You might want to invest in a couple of good muzzles….one for each of us! LMAO
In all of these cases it was pure luck or gods will. In Somers case if the monster had not been told on by his room mates he would not have been under LEs watchful eye.
In Marks case I believe he was left there temporarily and by locking up the killer he never got the chance to move the body.
In Ajas case I cant believe it took so long to find the car. I lived in Lawton and with Fort Sill close by why wasnt the car spotted by the many Army helocopters that fly over the area on manuevers? Just so sad. But I believe alot of these cases are solved by a guiding hand and LEs hard work. jmo
Tobias….I sure wish God would guide LE’s hand in the Haleigh case. This baby needs to come home one way or another. SOMEONE knows something that will help LE. If ONLY they would stop worrying about their own backsides and think about this little angel, for a change!
Unless it is a family kidnapping and they have her in hiding with a good family! Then she is safe and loved healthy. Big trauma, big adjustment, but good in the long run. It is a longshot, I know, but I don’t want to get sad about her until I have to. One hard thing with Haleigh, though, is her medical condition. She does need to see a doctor regularly and that piece seems especially hard to pull off.
I totally agree someone knows something and if they hadnt held back even a remote possible bit of info it would have been solved by now.
Both sides have possibly with held some minute piece that they didnt even realize could be a clue. jmo
tobias, I agree with you there.
I wonder if Hobbs was hidden by family or hid somewhere else part of the time. Or have they (car and bodies) been there since the beginning? I guess LE will find out. What a darned shame really. We can only pray for Haleigh. I’m still going to cling to some hope that she’s alive (in spite of the odds).
Yes, the odds for Haleigh are very bad. But I’m not going to cry until I have to. It’s just plain smarter emotionally. If I were family or close friend, I would be preparing for bad news. But since I’m not I can afford to put it off.
I had a prediction of finding Haleigh by Easter, I just had this wierd feeling it would be then. I am losing hope for it now, but I feel it will eventually come out. jmo
tobias, What a great thought for a beautiful Easter!
Does anyone have any comments on when we might hear about Misty’s pretrial hearing? It’s tomorrow, right? I wonder how long it will be afterward before we hear anything.

well they couldnt have been there since the beginning since OSBI said they were going to use his fingerprints to identify him and they also said they thought maybe 3-4 weeks.

tomorrow
Vaquera – You mean LE thinks the bodies were there about 3 – 4 weeks? So they must have been somewhere else between the beginning and then? TIA
correct. OSBI said they had tips from around the area of sightings of Hobbs/Aja and the car. He used to friggin’ live in Norman and his family told the police that. Someone I post with, from that area, said that PCSO is one step above the OSBI..that’s pretty friggin’ sad for a state law enforcement agency
Oh, gosh, Vaquera!
That’s terrible. That means there was a chance to find her before it was too late! If that’s true, gosh knows what she went thru.
He probably had property or knew where to hide. If any family helped him or anyone, they should have to serve the sentence he would have gotten – for killing Aja and her mother. IMO
That reminds me of the report that I saw about how LE thought Hobbs was travelling at night to move around. Terrible, terrible, terrible. “Tyger, tyger burning bright…” Don’t know if you’re familiar with Blakes poem but sure does make one wonder how could the one who made us make him as well? Prayers for the peaceful rest of that little girls soul. The only way to cope is to believe in heaven, imo.
What was the criminal past of Lester Hobbs, if anyone can tell me easily and wouldn’t mind telling me?
Found a good account on AMW so scratch my above request and thanks, all.

kind of like LE having Harrell’s computer with the child porn on it in Aug. but didn’t get around to looking at it till Nov. after Somer was killed. this is why I think the FBI needs to handle anything regarding children and take it out of the hands of local PDs.
Crystal Rollin has a you tube defending Misty, this is the girl she took off to New Jersey with and Mistys then boyfriend. The girl is whacked out on tape soooo sad. jmo

…this is why I think the FBI needs to handle anything regarding children and take it out of the hands of local PDs.
Excellent idea. Hard to imagine that most would disagree.
Wonder how many children Hobbs has hurt between his offense in 1986 and sweet Aja and not been caught. You all probably discussed this back when it happened, though. So, so sad.
Appears Misty does have a hatred for Crystal since her letters to this girl make claims the kids called her Mommy and Crystal by her name.
Misty sounds very bitter. jmo
The saddest thing is with this bad economy and budget cuts there will be less investigators and LE to do the job. Expect more unsolved cases.jmo
Good afternoon everyone. Spring break here. My home is filled with teens. I have not had much time to get on.
Tobias where on you tube can I find where Crystal Rollin is defending Misty?
tobias, I searched for that YouTube video and also googled “crystal rollin misty croslin” but couldn’t find it. I am at work and my searches have some sort of safety on them. Would you mind helping me find them? TIA.
Its under Misty cummings letter to me. Sorry I should have put that on sooner. The girl is really strange, watch her body movements. jmo
So what do we know about Hobbs? Was he a RSO? Don’t know anything about him. Just curious why he took Aja if not for “that” reason….
I think he took her for a possible shield if LE caught him and he also reportedly hated her so he more than likely blamed her for everything wrong, the guy was an alcoholic and physically beat women. He didnt want to go back to prison possibly because he knew he couldnt get alcohol and would have to dry out.
He took the cowards way out and by taking Aja with him he hurt others too. what a monster coward. jmo
tobias – thanks…I’ve tried to read up on Hobbs but haven’t found much on him. I mean I know he had a long criminal history but didn’t see a lot of details…..I hope that baby didn’t suffer. It breaks my heart to hear that he “hated” Aja. That makes me think her time with him was full of fear, pain and Gawd only knows what. If he was just going to kill himself then why not let her go?! There is a special place in HELL for this creep is all I can say! Right next to the Monster that killed Somer! And there’s another place being prepared for Maggot Anthony once she’s found guilty of Caylee’s murder! I hope Satan makes “Pet Projects” out of ALL those who hurt little children! They are truly the worst of the worst!
JB:Here’s an article from abc news shortly after it happened:
“Comanche County prosecutors charged Lester Hobbs, 46, with first-degree murder in the beating death of his estranged wife Tonya Hobbs, whose body was found Sunday in her camper. They also charged Hobbs with kidnapping of Aja Johnson, who is not his biological child.
Aja’s abduction is believed to have occurred sometime before 9 p.m. Sunday, when her mother’s body was found by authorities at the Comanche County Sheriff’s Office.
Tonya Hobbs’ murder comes just five months after she filed for a protective order against her estranged husband who she said threatened to kill her if she ever left him. While an Oklahoma court initially granted the request, the case was later dismissed because neither Tonya Hobbs or Lester Hobbs showed up in court.
Authorities and Aja’s family are worried the young girl could be in danger because of Hobbs’ violence history.
According to public records, Hobbs has been in and out of prison for various charges, ranging from a conviction for burglary in 1983 to driving under the influence. Most recently Hobbs servied a 20-month prison sentence in 2005 for assault and battery with a deadly weapon.
Aja and her mother were visiting Hobbs at his sister’s home prior to the murder and disappearance, according to authorities. Also traveling with Aja and her mother was Aja’s older sister, who is not missing.”
- – -
The rest of the story is that it’s inexplicable why the mother went there. If Aja’s bio-father had known he would not have allowed it. Tonya should not have been anywhere near him and certainly not with Aja.
I feel so bad for the father, he really cared about this little girl and by trusting her mother he lost her. So sad. jmo
m2c – Thanks for the article. This mother’s poor choice cost not only her own life but the life of one of her daughters thus causing grief to so many. When will these parents learn? Just like the Marc Bookal case where the BF had already injured his blood child and Marc’s mother still defends him. WHY would you allow your child around someone who you KNOW is a druggie and you KNOW to be violent? How many babies have to die before these people WAKE UP?!
Yes, when are these women going to WAKEUP? And when is Children`s Services in some cases realize that giving these children back to the very people (sometimes their own parents) that harmed them could ultimately be a DEATH SENTENCE (such as Lawrence King III)? Its time to put our children first!
I wonder about that in Marks case after his hands were burnt why wasnt he removed from the home ? why wasnt dcf called in? There were past abuses in the family, did the hospital mess up or what? jmo
Divers search St. Johns–Deputies seek evidence for Volusia County investigation
By Larry Sullivan
Published: Tuesday, March 30, 2010 10:21 AM EDT
Palatka Daily News
Sheriff’s divers spent Monday searching the St. Johns River for murder evidence.
The search near the Memorial Bridge in Palatka has nothing to do with the disappearance of Haleigh Cummings, the young Satsuma girl missing since Feb. 10, 2009, authorities said.
Early Monday, specially trained divers from three counties began checking the river bottom just north of the landmark bridge.
Their work could continue through Wednesday.
The search is for possible evidence in connection with a two-year-old slaying in Volusia County, a State Attorney’s Office official said.
I can confirm we are involved,Chris Kelly, a spokesman for the prosecutor’s office, said. Beyond that, it relates to an ongoing investigation out of Volusia County. That is about all I can say at this point.
Kelly declined to say what divers were looking for and which slaying case triggered Monday’s search.
They’ve asked me not to relay which case it’s on, he said.
Once they conclude their search I may be able to give more information, but until then that’s about all I can say.
The search was performed by deputies from Putnam, Flagler and St. Johns counties.
One boat equipped with flashing blue strobe lights patrolled the area around the search zone. Another boat upstream boat kept a line attached to two divers below the surface, its brightly colored diving flag flapping in the wind.
A third boat was used to ferry supplies and searchers from the shore.
The river is 15 to 20 feet deep in the search area and the water temperature was in the low 60s.
Divers had to battle the river’s current and nearly zero visibility under water.
About lunchtime Monday, personnel from the Palatka Fire Department went to the command post on the East Palatka side of the river to refill air tanks for the searchers.
The search drew a few curious people to the park area, where several law-enforcement vehicles were parked.
Does this have anything to do with that missing girl? one man asked a deputy.
Since Haleigh Cummings was reported missing, several large-scale searches have been conducted across Putnam County, and areas of the St. Johns River have been checked.
Late last year, responding to a tip in the Haleigh case, authorities used large pumps to partially drain a pond in the Mondex southwest of Palatka so divers could better examine the site.
No evidence from the case was found.
lsullivan@palatkadailynews.com
http://www.palatkadailynews.com/articles/2010/03/
I wonder if they got a tip? jmo
tobias–I never quite understood why Mr. Byrd was not investigated (and if he was, what was the results) in Marc`s burning incident. If properly investigated and evidence led to the bf then Marc might still be alive today. I think if you harmed a child once, you should not get a SECOND chance to do it again!
Is this another search for haleigh like the pond draining. No one is saying anything . hmmmm. jmo
If it wasn`t a search for Haleigh (which is stated in the article), then why won`t they say what case they are talking about? All LE agencies in the Haleigh case are involved, so it seems suspicious they are withholding what and who they may be looking for.
http://www.news-journalonline.com/breakingnews/2010/03/deputies-dredge-river-for-murder-weapon.html
Seems this search is for a murder weapon believed dumped in a shooting case
snipped by me http://pcso.us/2010-2-9-a
“We have conducted formal interviews with 76 different individuals who were identified as having possible information in the Haleigh investigation. DNA samples were collected from many of those interviewed and compared to evidence collected in the case.”
“Haleigh’s disappearance is the result of foul play by someone known to Misty Croslin and/or Ronald Cummings.”
“We have received 644 reported Haleigh sightings from various cities and locations throughout the United States. Investigators have either personally determined that these were false sightings, or asked for assistance from local law enforcement agencies where the alleged sightings took place to follow up on the information. To date, none of the reported sightings have been determined to be credible.” Snipped by me to save space.
Tobias,
Thx for posting that article. My guess is that the search has to do with Haleigh’s case. They lied when they searched the pond too. I sure hope they don’t find her. I still have strong hopes that she is alive somewhere.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Haleigh’s loved ones. This must be so hard for them.
The Volusia Sherrif’s office has a site which discusses their unsolved murders….most recent date referred to is 2005. I strongly feel this has to do with Haleigh. Hopefully it’s just another bad tip/lead and she is still alive out there.
Am I the only one here???
Sorry I am in and out. LOL
From WFTV.com…and they have a video as well….
Posted: 4:52 pm EDT March 29,2010
Updated: 6:07 pm EDT March 29,2010
VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. — Dive teams from four different sheriff’s offices were in the St. Johns River on Monday afternoon searching for a murder weapon near the Volusia-Putnam county line.
Investigators say the search is linked to an unsolved murder case from Volusia County that’s two to three years old. And, though WFTV asked the State Attorney’s Office multiple times to give details on what cold case it’s working on, officials refused to say a word.
Divers told WFTV they had zero visibility in the dark water, saying it’s like swimming in cold coffee. They ended Monday’s search after around eight hours.
Eighteen deputy divers searched the murky the bottom of the St. Johns River. They began at 8:00am and concentrated on a section of river right under Memorial Bridge in Palatka. The divers said they were feeling the bottom with their hands for a gun that was involved in an unsolved homicide within Volusia County limits two to three years ago.
The State Attorney’s Office got a tip the weapon was thrown over the side of US-17 and requested Putnam, St. Johns, Clay and Flagler sheriff’s offices for the help. Deputies worked in the black water for hours and found nothing.
The search will continue until Wednesday.
I did a little digging into the search and could not find anything recent that I would tie the search too.
Thank you ME for that information. I do not want to think a gun has been used at all in HaLeighs case.
Same here TM. I just read that the park where Crystal and family had the Haleigh’s Closet event at, is at the base of the bridge they are searching under.
How far is Volusia County away? There don’t seem to be any recent (last couple of years) unsolved murders there, but LE says it’s in relation to an unsolved one??? And why aren’t Volusia county LE participating in the search??
The river looks huge….I’m thinking they’re not searching for a body if they are searching in the vicinity of the bridge…it sounds like they’re searching for something that they expected to have sunk.
TM39…I agree re the gun. I really highly doubt anyone shot her. They could be lying about what they are looking for, but it does sound like they’re looking for something that would have sunk rather than drifted away.
I agree it must be something heavy or weighted down to not have moved in the current.
They are looking for a gun in black, murky, zero visibilty water? If so, they are taking several risks for a gun that may or may not be there, as well as money used for this search. I guess tomorrow it will be known if this is indeed a search for Haleigh, or maybe not, if they find nothing.
This article, from the Daytona Beach News Journal seems to indicate they are not looking for anything to do with Haleigh….
Deputies from four nearby counties are in the midst of an underwater search of the St. Johns River near Palatka to recover evidence from a Daytona Beach Shores murder, officials said today.
Karen Boehm, 45, of Port Orange was shot to death with a .45-caliber bullet while riding her bicycle at 12:30 a.m. July 22, 2007, near the south side of the Towers Grande condominiums in the 2000 block of South Atlantic Avenue. Police found her on the ground astride the bicycle and believe she probably knew her assailant.
Detectives from the Daytona Beach Shores Department of Public Safety and the State Attorney’s homicide investigation unit developed information that led them to Putnam County in search for evidence in the murder of Boehm, Sgt. Michael Fowler said in a written statement. Investigators won’t say what they are hoping to find.
Anyone with information regarding Boehm’s murder is asked to call Daytona Beach Shores Department of Public Safety at 386-763-5347.
Time will tell it all it seems.
Now if we can get some action in HaLeighs case.
BBL
Another article, this one from ClickOrlando, which refers to the case, but says LE won’t say what they are looking for. But then another channel says they’re looking for a weapon but refuse to say what case it is about. Seems we’re getting inconsistent stories…I wonder which, if any, are correct.
Deputies Not Releasing What They’re Seeking In St. Johns River
POSTED: Tuesday, March 30, 2010
UPDATED: 4:15 pm EDT March 30,2010
DAYTONA BEACH SHORES, Fla. — Deputies from four Central Florida counties are participating in an underwater effort in an attempt to recover evidence from a 2007 Daytona Beach Shores homicide.
Investigators from the Daytona Beach Shores Department of Public Safety and the State Attorney’s Homicide Investigation Unit recently developed information that the led them to Putnam County in the search for evidence in the slaying of Karen Boehm, who was killed on July 22, 2007.
Investigators believe that key evidence may be in the St. Johns River between Palatka and East Palatka.
Dive teams from the Putnam, Flagler, St. Johns and Clay county sheriff’s offices are in the midst of a three-day dive mission to recover items from the river. Investigators are not releasing what items they are seeking.
“We believe that the new information in this case is credible and are optimistic that the leads we are following will assist us in finding Karen Boehm’s killer,” said Detective Karen Howard of the Daytona Beach Shores Department of Public Safety.
Anyone with information regarding the death of Boehm is encouraged to call the Daytona Beach Shores Department of Public Safety at 386-763-5347.
Watch Local 6 News for more on this story.
For the few who may have wondered why LFLORIDA was banned at web sleuthsters, it’s because she [okay me] I finally said in a post that the people on there are a bunch of fugging IDIOTS.
My mind is boggled by the balloni they come up with on that forum. Even the ones who agree [kind've] with me manage to write up some doozies. Its not even just web sleuthsters that are retards. They are all over the world wide web site about Haleigh.
So there it is LFLORDIA fans – I think your ALL dumb as hail and I just got sick of ya’lls crazy theories. I think ya’ll are all a bunch of freaks who have NO DESIRE TO FIND HALEIGH CUMMINGS. Thats a fact jack not an opinion. THAT’S ENTERTAINMENT I guess.
Ya’ll can find me sitting in the bleachers with T.J. Hart watching ya’ll make yourself look like crime junkies feeding on the disappearance of a little girl from my town. Your all sick sick sick.
websleuths is a joke..very cliquie over there. I mentioned one of their mods was an convicted criminal and got banned. Its my understanding the “mod” disappeared soon after..
and so it goes
Glove, I think I love you. I was banned almost a year ago. I called the not~bottom~fire~arms~bearer [TG] out as wendchyme and low & behold next thing you know I was gone,BABY,gone. Did you know that wendchyme is still on there using the nick CW now? That dummy k’ster is so flipping stupid she left a message on WC’s visitor messages and called her by her nick wendchyme. That place has problems getting decent moderators to start with. Sometimes I think that most of the moderators are really Trish. Look at the initials TG – there was Thomas’ girlfriend, top gun-bearer, trisha griff, and probably others. Tinker is still posting there too but I don’t remember which nick she uses. You should find posts by both the sisters and then look at all the thread started by them. Trish said she banned them but they are still their using new nicknames.
I have been awake for almost 24 hours so I must ought to give up for the night.
Are you a man Glove? i don’t want to LOVE a girl. LORL
Is it truthful that the garden place closed down? I wish they had let me join there site. There’s not way they can be nearly as clickish as w.s.
The turn stories can’t
Hey everyone ,
Check out this web site about polygraph test. There is a lot of interesting info.
http://www.polygraphguy.com/faq.htm
First…I think this is the bridge I mentioned in my posts last week….:0 I think it’s Haleigh related. Either looking for the gun T & J were supposed to steal or Haleigh herself.
Caylee Came home
Somer came home
Shaniya Came home
Sarah came home
Marc has come home along whith so many others…
When will it be Haleigh’s turn? Soon?
Aja Johnson had a special place in my heart from Jan’s first Amber Alert article. I will never forget her or her dad. God Bless you both…
Don’t get me started on WS LOL!
(Proudly sports the Banned Badge)
THey do however have a dog searcher over there that had just been talking about searching the Norman remains site area just days ago…she was hurt in a fall and had not been able to resume the search.
Ex-neighbors & friends of Hobbs now say they told LE to look there early on. LE response is that they searched that area early on but found no reason to believe that he was in the area.
(What about the fact that ex-neighbors & friends told you he might be???)
I was also wondering if the search in the St. Johns was pertaining to Haleigh. Why was Volusia not involved in the search if it is their murder case? HMMMMMMMMMM.
Seeing as how the gun is metal wouldnt it show up on sonar? They are using this as a excuse to search for Haleigh and if they are someone has left a tip and is this the bridge Amber discussed about Ron saying its a perfect place to get rid of someone? jmo
OJ @ 1:04 am You said, “I mentioned one of their mods was an convicted criminal and got banned.”
Oh, my gosh, that’s just shocking! (LOL! Not)
I’ve gathered from many of your posts that you do not yet grasp the concept that when you insult people, often there can be consequences.
I would have thought that experience would surely have enlightened you about that! LOL!
Doesn’t look like LFlorida learned that lesson either considering what she says about us (and everyone on the web except her) after being banned at WS.
OJ, it’s a little bit like Kindergarten. If you’re not potty trained by then, they often won’t let you in. It’s just basic manners (behavior) (not to insult your hosts and “classmates.”)
Isnt this bridge on the route to PDM? Maybe someone is talking? Time will tell, I hope if she is there that they find her and solve this case. If not I hope they keep searching for her everywhere. It also seems pretty odd to look for a gun now for a case that was 3 years old. jmo
Tobias, there are probably a lot of metal things on the bottom so a search by hand is the best way and maybe the only way to find a gun.
And they got a tip – it was related to the other case of the woman who was shot. The fact that the area is Palatka is the only tie-in to Haleigh. And I’m sure the divers have been told to report any bones or clues that could be related to that, too.
I really don’t think even LE would bother with such a huge “cover story” if all they were looking for was Haleigh.
lfj – Volusia might not have divers.
The article states: ““We believe that the new information in this case is credible and are optimistic that the leads we are following will assist us in finding Karen Boehm’s killer,” said Detective Karen Howard of the Daytona Beach Shores Department of Public Safety.
Anyone with information regarding the death of Boehm is encouraged to call the Daytona Beach Shores Department of Public Safety at 386-763-5347.”
- – -
They got a tip or info about Karen Boehm’s murder. It’s probably for the gun because
she was shot. There is no statute of limitations on murder. Why not search?
Tobias @ 9:38pm you said, “It also seems pretty odd to look for a gun now for a case that was 3 years old.” WHAT??????
They HAVE A TIP! What should they do? Ignore it because the poor woman was murdered three years ago?
I am sorry I will clarify my statement about the gun. Sedament(spell) for all that time would make finding a gun nearly impossible.
Currents, sand and silt would be extremely thick for two to three years, the gun would be buried under alot and rusted really bad.But if thats what they are saying I guess we should believe them . jmo
A search for Haleigh would warrant this kind of news coverage–Yet “connie s and Kim P” “claimed” they did several searches for her that were never reported–Really? The search for this gun in another case belies the fact that the media would be out in droves to cover it..HMMM…
Robin, I dont think those searches had blue lights and LE involved to draw attention. lol jmo
Misty must be in court today she isnt in the inmate log. Ron must be waiting for his lawyer to be available. jmo
My issue with the “searches” is if they were indeed being done then they were knowingly and willingy going against what LE had advised. The reason for LE to release that advisement publically was to let EVERYONE know that they did NOT want ANYONE to potentially upset or contaminate a possible crime scene.
Look at what happened to the one where Cobra was called in. LE possibly did not even want the evidence from that search as it was no longer unencumbered.
Karen Boehm deserves justice, as well as Haleigh. I hope they find the gun and tie it to Karen`s murderer. We have been waiting fourteen months to find out what happened to Haleigh? Can you imagine waiting three years to find the killer as the Boehm family has had to do?
Good morning everyone,
I see that many are still trying to link this seach to HaLeigh. I am sure it is not related, but, that is just my opinion.
TObias @ 9:59 am You said, “Currents, sand and silt would be extremely thick for two to three years, the gun would be buried under alot and rusted really bad.”
–
Oh, gosh. Well you should quick call and let them know they’re wasting their time. I’m sure they’d appreciate it! LOL!
I want to ask a stupid question that may or may not have been covered by ya`ll? Did Ron have a house phone? Did they call 911 on a cell phone? If only cell phones were being used that night , the “pings” on a cell tower would determine their locations that night. From Ron, Misty, Tommy, Joe.. Has anything been reported or discovered about that?
news 4 jax for update on charges against M and R. Apparently R’s cousin plead no contest. M and R plead not guilty.
…to be continued.
Hi, Robin!
I never found out for sure if there was a “house phone.” But I am sure that if LE is only half-qualified they’d have had the brains to check M and R’s phone records and “pings.”
I don’t know if they would have checked T’s or Joe’s back then. Although probably they would have checked Joe’s since they did have the FBI interview him after he’d returned to Tenn.
We can only HOPE that LE has covered this kind of BASIC investigation 101 stuff.
Tobias – Do you know if there will be media cameras in the courtroom today? Also, I agee that the search could be related to Haleigh.
Misty supposedly turned hers off (I hope I am correct on this). But if she left the MH she was bound to have used it. Or if she called to Tommy or Timmy. Ron supposedly called Tommy to have him go check on Misty. Did Tommy call Ron back (and prove that he indeed went to the MH)? These many phone calls could prove who is lying.
Did anyone ever sit and figure the average per 8 hrs per call/ He would have made on average 5 calls per hour after his last call to Misty at 8-8;30. Thats like every 12 min. Just doing some math on it in case no one did.jmo
The only reason I brought this up is the misinformation that has gotten out there like how many times Ron tried to call Misty that night (20-90?), if Misty was indeed in the MH, how did TN get there so quickly and when did she know, if Tommy indeed went to the MH (assuming he used a cell phone) could be cleared up with just that info. I have teenagers and their cell phones are like a lifeline, as with these people. Cell phone records can shed alot of light on this case.
Robin @ 11:02 am
We have to depend on LE doing their job. Checking everyone’s phone records should have been step #1. With R and M being first on the list. But only LE knows the answers to your questions.
I only hope they checked a lot of other people’s phones too (including T, Joe, and Chad and others on the bio-mom’s side including Marie and Johnny/Marty Sheffield. Unfortunately I doubt they checked those).
One thing is sure about the calls. Ron did not trust her enough to think she had shut her phone off and had gone to bed. If that were the case he would not have made over 20 calls.And what couldnt wait till he got home and talked to her in person? jmo
m2ce–I would think that LE would check those, but Tommy`s lawyer is now claiming that he might not have been at the MH that night. I honestly can not believe that Ron called Tommy to go to the MH, when there was bad blood between them (if I remember correctly). But if Tommy lived close by, then that was a likely candidate to call I guess.

Stopping for peanuts and what not was a priority though? Even after all that many calls? The amount of calls alone smells of desperation of some sort. Just weird imo.
This is all I found regarding the court appearance – http://www.news4jax.com/news/23012005/detail.ht
not sure what the point was…
I think he called there because he thought Misty had gone there with the kids. She said she sometimes walked the kids over to Tommys on occassion.I think Tommy answered and later used this as a get out of jail free card. Misty even said thats what he did. But they all lie so much who knows when they arent? jmo
HGmom I know you are familiar with Brian Ladd, at Brians dreams. I would like your opinion on two DD.
1. DD7813 12/31/09
2. DD7918 02/05/09 (look at shirt in HaLeighs Amber alert pic)
Did you note his DD on Marc A. Bookal?
Tuff, I know what you mean. Its like he was trying thinking she would eventually answer.
Why would he think she was still awake? He knew how exhausted she was(supposedly). What was so urgent? jmo
If any of you are familiar with my above mentioned post I would love to kick this around.
In no way do I endorse this as fact, but, interesting, to say the least.
Where did the info come from that R had called M 20 times that evening? Do we know what times he called?
It’s possible he was just ticked off. If her phone kept going to voice mail, he could have kept calling time after time (hang up, call again) every chance he got. If he could tell that her phone was turned off he could have kept calling thinking it would be back on again.
Come on, Tobias. You never heard of people being upset, angry, then worried or suspicious and calling someone a lot of times? Makes perfect sense to me.
It also makes sense that he’d call T, to see if she was there.
Texasmommy39, I am interested in taking a look at Brian’s dreams. Can you tell me how to easily find the two that are of interst?
If you believe the story about Misty being exhausted then no it makes no sense to repeatedly call when her phone is shut off.
Most people would think she went to bed. jmo
Tobias, are you sure he could tell her phone was shut off? The phone still rings and can take a message.
And since we do not know what times he called, then we cannot infer anything by whether or not she was exhausted or he even knew he was exhausted. This is just building a bunch of BS off a pile of BS.
The phone records are a point of contention with me. They could alleviate some of the rumors. Does Ron have a history of making calls to M while at work? Does he only call when he is on break? It not only matters how many calls were made but when they were made. That goes for all the players in this case.And these calls “might” give a location of one of these players and could prove/disprove their alibi by the “pings” on their cell phone.
Robin – R could have called T just to find out if M was there. R may not have asked T to go check on her. In fact I tend to doubt that he would ask that – even though T is claiming that he did.
We do not know who R called or when. I am sure LE knows.

************************************************
Go to this years dreams. The tab is located at the top.
The first DD is located in the month of January. the second in March.
Robin @ 12:58 – That’s right. But all that info -along with almost every other piece of “evidence” or part of their investigation is NOT being released by LE. It is VERY frustrating.
I believe that for one thing LE is sending a very clear message that they do NOT want US to solve this or even be able to discuss the FACTS of the case because we have no facts. Very very frustrating.
TExasmommy 39, The dates threw me off; DD7918 year is 2010, (not 2009); DD7813 is filed under 1/1/2010 even though it is labelled 12/31/2010 in the DD…
Anyhow, I found them! So, what do you think?
I was just listening to the last tapes of misty and Hank. Where she talks about John Barton and I missed it before but she says John is Rons friend. And he set them up to get out of gun charges.hmmm. So Ron has a friend who buys and sells guns according to Misty. jmo
m2ce–It is very frustrating. But these records might disprove the Misty is the “key” theory. They have made Misty`s actions so suspicious, but yet will not come out with the evidence that supports their theory.
I think my enter button gets stuck causing the numerous posts–sorry all!
“car explodes, breezeway and tropic road, killer, Hank Thomas, Putn AM black t-shirt, left leg, email threat is real call police”
This is DD7813. Of interest because of address and POI named. The Drawing reveals more information.
I goggled the address breezeway and tropic road in Putnam county. Putnam is mentioned.
Brian has not updated Haleigh’s DD’s since 2/11/10. I find it odd that he has not connected this dream to the case.
The second dream I only find coincidental, but, eerily so.
Texasmommy39–I couldn`t quite make heads or tails of Brian`s dream. Could you please explain them to me? I guess I couldn`t quite navigate through that website, but I did notice Phillip Desir was missing? Is he any relation to Adji?
Just to play along Hank was in a car accident,left leg broken. Might mean the threat was made earlier than Haleigh going missing. To me this is just hypothesis I dont believe in psychics. jmo
Everyone has a hypothesis, just educated guesses. Theories abound in this case. I sure wished someone would say something so Haleigh could be found one way or another. jmo
DD7813 has “killer” on it and DD7918 has the “they are coming for her.” Let’s hope the killer in the first is not a killer of H and that the second DD is about Haleigh and how they are coming for her, alive!
Did you make anything of the intersection of Tropic and Breezeway?
Have not looked into Phillip Desir.
I do not think I am in a position to explain them. The address reference is a known address linked to a POI(IMO) and the fact that it mentions a POI and Putnam, is to coincidental. I find it odd that Brian has not linked this dream to Haleigh’s DD. The mention of a e-mail threat is maybe an indication of why he has not done so. IDK not trying to o this more than necessary and with out dropping an e-mail with Brian. That is why I was wanting to discuss it with HGmom because she follows the site.
The ND dream is located in February (sorry, not march):
“they are coming for her, GAP, pink, blue, she(s) wearing this shirt(picture of a butterfly)”
The shirt that is pictured in HaLeigh Amber Alert located here :http://pcso.us/2010-2-9-a is eerily close in description.
Sorry dropped a few words. I am not trying to read into this or fit pieces to HaLeighs case.
Tobias, it is with an open mind and looking at all resources (tools)that might be what will bring HaLeigh home. Who knows, Brian does seem to have a gift, IMO.
Texasmommy39–does Brian think Haleigh will be found dead or alive?
Brians DD seem to indicate Halieghs body will be found.
The argument between Ron and Misty was allegedly right around 8:30pm. This is when it was stated Mistys phone went off( at least that is what we have been told) Ron was suppose to have called Tommy at 9pm and he said he went to the mh between 9:30pm and 9:45pm left around 10pm and said it appeared noone was home. House dark and quiet. Normally when a cell is turned off and someone calls it goes straight to voice mail. All I remember hearing was that Ron called late into the evening when it was based on the 20 plus calls.
Tobias, The websigt I posted last night mentions LE does take psychics serious .
http://pcso.us/2010-2-9-a
Snipped by me:
“We have received 5,768 leads, all of which have been followed up on by investigators.
Approximately 600 of the leads received have come from psychics or individuals claiming to have special abilities. All of these leads have been reviewed by investigators, and leads containing specific information that can be verified have been followed up on.”
Robin – That’s right. There is lots of stuff that could show us they’re on the wrong track – like whatever they saw or didn’t see at the mh that night. We might draw different conclusions. But LE does not want us to know.
Robin do we really need a DD to tell us what the chances are for HaLeigh? In fact look at how many sightings of HaLeigh there have been and still no HaLeigh.
Again snipped by me:
“We have received 644 reported Haleigh sightings from various cities and locations throughout the United States. Investigators have either personally determined that these were false sightings, or asked for assistance from local law enforcement agencies where the alleged sightings took place to follow up on the information. To date, none of the reported sightings have been determined to be credible.”
lfj @ 3:32 – I think everything you mentioned is rumor, isn’t it? I don’t mean that in an offensive way to you. Just that so much of what we’ve heard is from rumor.
In the article above about the search for the weapon in the St. Johns River. I wonder why Volusia County is not involved in this search themselves?
Me, where this crime is said to have ocurred in Daytona Beach Shores is approx 2hours and 20 min away from the Memorial Bridge location in Putnam.
No m2c, it was reported here on BNN by TJ.
LMAO… lfj, you are correct and so is m2c♥.
Wonder why we have been spoon fed one rumor after another by all of the so called ones with the inside source.
m2ce–Alot of this case is based on rumor, speculation, innuendo, and straight out lies. No one can tell fact from fiction. And LE is not helping with their Misty is the “key” babble, without coming forward with some credible evidence to support their claims. Maybe they are keeping everything close to the vest, and that`s fine, but the lack of information has caused the many speculations and misinformation. IMO
lfj – what part was?
Also, Volusia County may not have divers. Those seem to be the ones mentioned regarding the search.
Thats what I think as well robin. BB in a moment.
Texasmommy, You are right there have been alot of rumors in this case, but on this subject the phone call that went to Tommy from Ron at 9pm was confirmed by LE that the call did happen. Now Tommys accountability from what happened from that point on could be a fabrication of Tommys. We only know what has been reported to us thus far.
lfj,
The reason I’m now thinking the search probably isn’t about Haleigh is that I can’t imagine that LE would get the hopes up of a homicide victim’s family if they weren’t really searching in relation to her case. When they refused to talk about what case they were working, I was more suspicious.
m2c, I am from Volusia County. We do have our own divers. Putnam does not have their own divers. They usually call on St.Johns County for their assistance. I am cannot say this is or is not about Haleigh, Volusia is usually present when it is one of their cases.
Me , I completely understand. I was just letting you know where this crime was to have taken place at here in Volusia County.
Robin @ 3:54 – You are exactly right.
All we can do is take a rumor or speculation and go from there.
It’s just sometimes the rumor “becomes perceived” as fact and all the “conclusions” drawn from it become “fact” or seem to be considered so by some people. And then it spreads like wildfire.
I am still looking for the “credible” source. LE spoonfeeds the media–and probably info that supports their theory. No “unbiased” reporting that might give a story on all aspects of this case, and of all the players–Croslins, Cummings, and Sheffields.
lfj – you should write the author of the article and ask them. Seriously. Why arent’ those divers there? Maybe the report is wrong or the reporter missed something.
- – -
On a separate note, I just can’t believe 3-4 counties of LE would LIE if it’s really a search for Haleigh. And why get the hopes up of the victim, Karen Boehm, that some work or progress may be made in her case? That would be an awful thing to lie about.
Haleigh Cummings – Timeline improving 09/03/09 written by Simon Barrett. This article can be found in the archives. TJ breaks the news that Ron and Misty had an argument about 8:30pm the night Haleigh vanished. I will find the article reporting what Tommy allegedly done after his call from Ron.
M2c!!! I am not calling them liars! I was just wondering why they were not present, because usually they are! Whats the big deal?
Robin @ 4:21 – I don’t think they even “spoon feed” info. They do not offer any at all.
Their “press conferences” consist of how hard they’re working and how many hours they’ve worked and the number of tips they’ve received.
Otherwise it’s pretty much nada.
m2ce–I so agree with you about rumor being perceived as fact. LE is holding all the cards, but yet they want community involvement in solving this case. Do you think they would fully investigate info that would point toward someone other than Misty? Someone in the Sheffield/Griffis family for example? There has been so little reporting about that side of the case, maybe that`s why people tend to believe that Misty holds the answers to what Happened that night!
I guess that I am frustrated that other missing children have been found (and rather quickly at that), and yet Haleigh`s case has seemed to have stalled with no information forthcoming. I had high hopes these recent drug arrests would lead to a break in the case, but that hope has waned.
Sept/21/2009 archive article URGENT Haleigh Cummings update: Hank Croslin Jr. talks, No One at home in the 10pm hour the night Haleigh vanished. TJ broke this story and it was Putnam County authorities that told WSKY this info. The article written by Simon .
Here is the info that supports my 3:32pm post.
lfj–Isn`t Tommy`s lawyer claiming now that Tommy was not at the MH that night?
lfj,
I agree that it sounds odd and it is a fair distance from the bridge. And they did say they were searching for pot plants when they searched the Mondex. Anything is possible…but I would hope they wouldn’t put the victim’s loved ones through this if it weren’t true.
The search at the bridge has NOTHING to do with Haleigh Cummings….That is a fact…
M2C – You can take it to the bank that ALL phone records (any one who could have anything to do with Haleigh case) were examined under a microscope. The LE are truly not that inept, sorry to bust all the nay Sayers bubbles.
As far as Misty not confessing or talking, I believe that we have another lady who killed her daughter not talking, even with a boat load of evidence, and that was her bio daughter. What does Misty have to lose when her ultimate consequence is Ronald’s revenge? Prison is probably safer for her.
Tommys lawyer made a statement to that affect on Nancy Grace. I know his lawyer said they gave him the take it too Jesus speech or something like that letting Tommy know if he is lying about anything it will show.
Me, I am not sure what you are talking about. You had asked how far the crime in Volusia County was from the memorial Bridge in Putnam. I was just letting you know that info.
The Volusia County line on hwy 17 ends in Seville, I think. Then you enter into Putnam County. The crime mentioned is no where close to this.
Sorry me, I mis read your post. I get what you mean now. You are right.

Yes I ddi (Marc) I wa the first to tweet to Brian about the discovery of Marc’s remains and that he had “hit the nail on the head”.
I have seen his Haleigh DDs and am still stumped by the 29 or Hwy 29 & Jax reference.
What do you think?
I’ll check those two you mentioned and post my thoughts. I have been checking Brian’s DDs for Marc, Haleigh, & Aja for some time now. All the new ones as they appear on his site as well. I think I may even know which one’s you were talking about.
HGmom thank you. I was amazed on his DD for Marc.
In my opinion his DD are suggesting a family abduction.
29 could be the abductor….. Chad and Connie are both 29. The DD sugest a women. Brian gives two distinct locations one in Jax on Nolan st and one location close to where Hwy 10 meets 301. IMO locations are not Mistys, Tommys or Rons stomping grounds.
For those of you who are lost here is the link to Brians DD for HaLeigh.
http://www.briansprediction.com/MISSING/publicr/Haleigh%20Ann-Marie%20Cummings%20case%20673.htm
No I am not a nut. I just have a open mind and will look at all things pertaning to this or any case i follow.
Did any one watch Fatal Beauty last night? Casey anthony was #1 on the list. She has not even been charged in a court of law yet, but, is #1 on US list of women who kill.
