I think it is time to put my foot down in an attempt to keep our comment section on the Haleigh Cummings case peaceful. So many times I have asked everyone in here to stop bashing others and when someone does start fighting I have asked everyone else to stay out of it when it does happen.
First of all I would like to say this:

in June 23rd, 2010 at 8:05 am on — Haleigh Cummings & Caylee Anthony – BNN Radio Wrap For Jun/20
————————————
Thank you very much m2c for this comment. I have been telling everyone that exact thing. ALL theories should be considered not just one and certainly not on just one family that is involved.
*******************************************************
It has been obvious to everyone following this case on BNN what my theory is. Most won’t even consider it could even be possible but you don’t see me getting mad because their opinion is completely different from mine. I firmly believe that everyone has their own opinions and should be allowed to express it. When someone attacks someone because their opinion is different, it is totally unfair and I DO NOT like that. And btw I have never said for sure who I definitely say is responsible for Haleigh being taken away, or kidnapped or killed. I am only stating a strong opinion that could have possibly happened and even though not many agree with me, I can respect that.
I wish that everyone would do me a favor. If you feel you are attacked for expressing your opinion PLEASE email me at jannyo@gmail.com and include the exact date and time and thread that it was posted on and if possible the comment itself would really be helpful.
I know some of you don’t realize how time consuming it is to have to go through each comment to find one with one sentence that someone else finds insulting. I do have a million other things to do as part of my job and I honestly do not have the time to search through hundreds of comments to find it.
I am begging ALL involved in the disputes in here lately to just stay out of it unless you are directly involved in the original problem. That way it would be easier for me to check it out and decide who really started it. Having a bunch jump in only makes it worse and more of you end up getting blamed. I really hate blaming someone for something that they didn’t do, but as I said sometimes it is hard to figure out the original problem so when that happens I am forced to scold a lot more that I should be.
So one more time… PLEASE stop lashing out to others just because you don’t agree with whatever theory they have.
I have got to get through to all of you that I mean business here and I am not going to keep taking the abuse in here to some whether they have been here throughout this whole case or tp someone that may be a new poster. ALL new posters ARE welcome in here even if the regulars do not agree with their opinions. I am serious about this. PLEASE try to stop bashing anyone for whatever reason.
As we all have heard by now, the bones pulled out of the river have clearly been found NOT to be that of Haleigh Cummings. I could have sworn that when everyone was so anxious for the lab results on the bone, it was said by someone that the bones were NOT human bones. They said it was an animal bone. Now we are being told that it was the bone from an American Native. I have honestly got to the point that I don’t know who to believe either. Why would the cops telling diofferent stories be any better than Misty changing her story?
The only thing we all have to hold onto is our theories. As I stated, I have my opinion on this case but not everyone agrees with me. I think all the theories should be laid out so we can sort them out instead of fighting over them. Actually most of the theories that have been posted in here are very possible that could have happened but unfortunately none of use know what really happened the night Haleigh disappeared. How can anyone argue with someone else about a theory when they don’t know for sure what happened? So I am asking everyone to think about that before getting upset over someone else expressing their opinions and it is totally different from yours.
So in closing this article I would like to ask all of you that have been following this case to please stand together. Don’t let a simple disagreement pull you apart. Help me in welcoming newcomers in here that are interested in what happened to Haleigh. Quit accusing them of being someone else. All newcomers are not bad people. Afterall we were all newcomers at one time or another too. Help us keep the focus here on trying to figure out what happened to our precious Haleigh. That is what we are suppose to be here for. Please keep her in your prayers.
Thank you,
Jan Barrett

”I firmly believe that everyone has their own opinions and should be allowed to express it. When someone attacks someone because their opinion is different, it is totally unfair and I DO NOT like that.”
I agree!
I turn to BNN for updates on little Haleigh… most news covers such bland and useless information – what do I care about Kim Kardasian/Linsey Lohan/Hilton… and other such useless people – when our society is suffering the loss of it’s most precious assest – our children! When babies are being abused and slaughtered by vile peices of crap – not saying that all involved with Haleigh are vile – BUT…
…when you read news like this –
Poughkeepsie, New York – William C. Tate Jr, a 29-year-old Wassaic man plead guilty Thursday to sexually abusing and then brutally murdering his 3-month-old daughter.
HORROR – BEYOND BELIEF!
It is just so hard to think that there is anything good in this world. How I wished little Haleigh could have been found alive and well.
Now I just wish for truth and justice!
It was in one of PCSO’s own news releases that said “The agency had an anthropologist at the scene that identified all “biological” items that were recovered as being non-human.”
http://www.pcso.us/2010-4-21-a
I find it very unacceptable that the blatantly lied to the public, as we are now finding out that at least one human bone was recovered and belongs to a long dead Native American.
So now I have to question was there any other human “biological” items found that PSCO is lying to the public about?
For once I am glad I went to bed early. lol jmo
The fine art of IGNORE comes in handy. All you do is refuse to respond and blog with others who are not confronting you. jmo
I don’t understand how anyone can get mad at another poster for having a different opinion or theory. It is just a blog, for God’s sake, not a life and death matter. I hope the ones who act out are never on a jury because deliberation could result in bodily injury.
OMG Can you imagine if we had sound? Thank god its just the written word and everyone can just skip around the ones who get nasty. jmo

I’d like to add that “confrontation” is not the same thing as expressing a different opinion. I think sometimes we feel that way when all it really is is discussion. I say I feel “A” and someone else says I feel “B” does not mean we’re fighting or that we need to fight. I sure hope we aren’t reduced to behaving like children and only talk to people who are “on our side.”
However, ignoring a comment that iss insulting is a good idea. Maybe we could all re-set our “insult sensitivity” meters and try to assume the best first – not the worst?
LadyonaMission @10:43am- I agree, I’ve heard screaming coming out of Jury Rooms and the bailiff was standing outside the door ready to act if it went any further!
Wished that would have happened when I was on jury duty. I was with people who were more interested in eating donuts and having the day off. My trust of the jury system really took a hit on that one. lol jmo
So should the “newbies” to this board just let the “old-timers” run them off?
WOW – not sure what I’ve missed but I think I’m glad I did. Haven’t had time to post much lately due to work and home issues! I miss you guys! M2C – Good to see ya!
We have for monthsssssssss been able to agree to disagree without a problem,other than the vicious Trolls whose sole purpose is to attack!
Tobias at 10:43 am: “The fine art of IGNORE comes in handy. All you do is refuse to respond and blog with others who are not confronting you. jmo”
- – -
I’d like to add that “confrontation” is not the same thing as expressing a different opinion. I think sometimes we feel that way when someone disagrees with us – it’s not fun to be disagreed with. But it’s part of natural discussion and doesn’t need to be taken as an insult or a fight.
We’re discussing different views. We can still be friends or at least act nicely to each other.
I sure hope we aren’t reduced to behaving like children and only talk to people who are “on our side.”
However, ignoring a comment that is insulting is a good idea. Expressing a different point of view is not confrontational. It’s HOW that view is expressed. If we can’t express our view in a civil, nice way, then that’s a good time to just not comment at all (IMO). (And yes I will try to heed my own words)
Maybe we could all re-set our “insult sensitivity” meters and try to assume the best first – not the worst?
Lady, I am an oldie and I can tell you I want you to stay no matter what your opinion is. If someone has a problem with you just try to ignore. Its so much easier and less stressful. jmo

———————————-
Hmmm….why am I not surprised they left together? Lol.
***************************
Who left together?
What do you mean by this?
Just asking,n/p
Tobias,Its survival,lol
Good Morning CathyJo! Stop moving so fast I can’t find you when I have a question to ask and now I’ve forgotten what it was! lol
to be fair tho I think we are ALL are sensitive lately,We have put so much effort into Haleigh but it seems the people she loved just don’t period!
haha,I am contagious,I live in the land of confusion Alex!
I think theres evil spirits in the last article,lol thats the 1st time i have ever asked someone to move outta dat place!
CJ @ 11:08am – Isn’t that the truth!
I spend alot of time doing that myself Tobias,I learned the hard way! lol scroll,calm down,scroll,calm down,scroll,calm down…lol
brb phone
BBL Taking the kids to the pool. Too hot here today.lol jmo
But sometimes CathyJo and Tobias, it is a little hard to ignore when you are accused of being a “paid” blogger and told that since you are a newbie you should leave and that you don’t know what you are talking about just because you have only been on this board for 3 or 4 months.
CathyJo- I get lost when there’s a detour on my way home! Since I started blogging, you have been the one constant in my ability to manuever my way through information regarding this case, so when you leave, I get lost! I sometimes end up talking to a blog where everybody is gone! lol
M2C – we rebuilt the dog house some time back….I got you a new hammock and put a box of chocolates on it just in case you decided to come back.
LadySadie- I would love to go with you to the MH, if only I didn’t live so far away!
LadySadie, unfortunately that and worse has happened hundreds of times to a lot of people on this blog. You’re right. It’s not easy to take but I think Jan is asking us to put all the unpleasantness behind us and turn over a new leaf today and start fresh. That’s what I’d like to do anyway.
Lady,Amen…….I know it’s hard,lol sometimes you can’t but we know one another and can agree to disagree on most things,lol
Hey Lady,I was a newbie too,lol
I don’t care about seniority on a blog,lol
Awww Thank you Alex,And I have enjoyed it enormously,if you need me for anything,blog related or not,all of you for that matter,I am only an email away!
Tobias,I am waiting till Dakota gets up then we are gone to the park?? lol
LadySadie- if all the children were taken away from all the parents who do drugs, I don’t thinkthere would be enough Foster Homes to place all the children. It would appear that the answer would be for these parents to stop procreating until they get their acts together but there is no way to mandate it!
But I agree,newcomers ought to be treated just like all of us,tho i admit,the last 2 i spoke too nicely,after i say hello,they went for my throat,so I do get alil weary of who will next,lol just keeps my guard up!
But I agree,newcomers ought to be treated just like all of us,tho i admit,the last 2 i spoke too nicely,after i say hello,they went for my throat,so I do get alil weary of who will next,lol just keeps my guard up!
Thanks CathyJo!
Thanks Jan for the article, even though its extremely sad you had to take the time out of your busy schedule to write it. It was definately warranted considering the many times someone has to sift through the “in fighting and “verbal sparring” to get to pertinent information on the case. The case should be about Haleigh, NOT the bloggers who see confrontation at every avenue and in every statement. Since there is precious few facts afforded to us by LE, then most statements are opinions. I do not agree with everyone on here, but I would not stoop to maliciously attack anyone for their opinion. This forum is about Haleigh and for Haleigh, not for the few who have to “get the last word” in. Hopefully today we can heed Jan’s advice and agree to disagree in a respectful manner. Thanks Jan and Simon for this great forum and for being the “voice” that Haleigh so desperately needs and for the bloggers that have kept her name alive on here and in your hearts.
Great post, Robin!
Hi, JB! Sorry I did not see your post before leaving my last comment. Thank you for re-building the dog house. Hopefully we won’t need it as much in future but we’re all human so I’m sure we’ll be glad it’s there some times!
My daughter brought home a “Bullies to Buddies” article from school that immediately made me think of us
. In short:
If second graders can do it, so can we?
PS No chocolate for dogs JB, right?
PPS THANK YOU JAN AND SIMON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey M2C – well, we may not need the dog house but those chocolates I left for you on the hammock sure could come in handy!
I’m really not sure what has transpired as I’ve been away a lot lately but I’m hoping we can all move past the personality differences and get along. Cate is right – if 2nd graders can do it, SURELY we can too!
Cate–I love the post. M2C and JB, its great to see both of you. I really missed both of your posts.
Methinks I’m glad I missed the drama! Since I moved into my new place, I’ve been very busy unpacking and taking care of my senior husband and grandchildren. I have been trying to catch up. So hello to all, it’s great to see/read ya! Hope all is well with everyone. whew…it’s been a long couple of months!
Why would the cops telling diofferent stories be any better than Misty changing her story?
========================================
It’s not any better and probably worse, but that seems to be the way PCSO rolls. I read about too many cops down there doing worse than the criminals and not a thing was done, except forced resignations and slaps on the wrists..
Glad to see all the false accusations of identity has been addressed.
I wonder if the offenders will listen this time?
I hope so, its predictable and boring and doesn’t involve Haleigh at all.
The problem in the world is everyone thinks its a me, me, me, situation, its not, its about others like Haleigh and Jr and all the collateral damage done in Satsuma.
Or, Just think before you type that a post might mean something different than you first think.
VQ, do you live in FL. ?

Thank gawd I don’t LOL
Truely a sad day!
As many do as i do! You can call me a creeper! I creep in and out of BNN all day! I love reading all your post but lately i have been skipping the blogs and just reading the articles by Jan and Simon! As some of you know i have posted here a few times but i just like to sit back and read and think about what theories and ideas you all put into my head. Today as i was reading Jans article i truely felt like crying. What Happened to us here at BNN? What happened to being a family, being Haleighs family and Voice!
Praying for Haleigh!
The irony is there really was NO “difference of opinion”!but…movin right along..
one thing i have been wondering about cuz it could change my theories altogether….is it true that Ron worked “overtime” that night, and had been actually scheduled to work until midnight?
or is no one speakin’ to me today? lol
As usual, Jan, you have written an excellent article that (in this case) addresses the problem with very smart, pro-active suggestions.
I also agree w/Tobias..ignore. It’s not worth a headache.
This case has everyone on edge because just when we think there is something concrete happening, we are once again let down. Now, all we can do is wait once again.
mrsm: Just dropped in. I don’t think anyone is here so, it’s not just you…..LOL
Hello!
ty lucy
feelin like the red headed step child today
Cate – correct…no chocolate for dogs! But we’re not really dogs……just get sent to the dog house when we’ve been naughty so we can indulge in as much chocolate as we want! I’m passing out chocolate covered rawhides to everyone as we speak!
mrsm – hello….I don’t believe I’ve had the pleasure of meeting you! How are you and welcome!
mrsm- boy would I like to know the answer to that! To see his time card and question co-workers who work closely with him. Also if there was another person on duty who could perform his job or was he it!
Hello Stilllucy! Hey there Jaba! How is everyone?
While I’ve been really suspicious of Ron….he was a crane operator and I think his absence would have REALLY been noticed. It isn’t like he could easily step away without anyone noticing…you know what I mean? Everyone would notice the crane wasn’t operating, right? Unless he got someone to work for him and cover for him, I’d say he was there all night as he has stated…and believe me that is VERY difficult for me to concede because no one makes me more suspicious than Ronnie Boy!
Hi, Everyone!
And a special Hi to Tanya! Glad you dropped in and sorry to hear all the unpleasantness upset you so much. Maybe like a lot of families we have our disagreements and ups and downs but hopefully things will be better from now on. I do believe we all have the same intent and that is to find Haleigh and to prosecute whoever is responsible. I’m pretty sure we all agree on that!
Hi, mrsm: Yes, Ron usually worked until midnight but (and everyone please correct me if this is wrong) I believe he knew in advance that he would be working overtime.
Hi stilllucy! Didn’t know you were here!
I still don’t know for sure but I think ron was at work the whole time.
I think misty hasn’t told something yet that is important.
I think ron has a very good idea about what happened but can’t prove it.
Past that, I can’t land on much that leads to a solid conclusion.
The drug cases will end up by fall and if they don’t break, they’ll spend 15-20 a piece and we may never find out.
I also think misty goes to trial, which will give us more to view and may open up another theory or path to follow.
Got to go for a while – just so’s you know I’m not ignoring anyone. Will try to return later and catch up. Have a great – and peaceful – afternoon!
Yes, ladies. Ron’s regular shift put him out at midnight but on that night, he was picking up ot until 3am.
I find it very possible that he did indeed leave the grounds of PDM. I think he snuck away from work that night and TN helped him in some way. He could have very well shut his phone off, hence, no pings….Misty did say that she had called him to no avail. Not sure how much truth is in that statement, tho.
IMO
Hey, y’all! Here for a bit and then back at it. Assisting with Special Olympians @ softballl tonight……In 100+ degree weather.
Oh, no! I am not red headed and never been a step-child! LOL
Everyone have a good day!
misty sleeping less than 3 feet away is a good start.
Did she ever admit to being on any drug from the joint with tc at 530 until she woke up?
jaba – I agree – I think Ron was at work the whole time…..I’ve doubted that fact in the past but I just don’t have anyway of proving it and the facts, at least as we know them, seem to indicate he was there all night.
I too believe Misty has withheld something very important and some reasons she would do that include but are not limited to the following:
1. Loyalty to Ron
2. She is involved and doesn’t want to face additional charges
3. She has been threatened
4. Loyalty to someone else (seems a little doubtful as she has repeatedly thrown MANY people including her brother under the bus, then started the bus, drove it over them, backed up and ran over them again)
I’m still not convinced that Ron is clueless about what happened that night. My gut feeling is he knows and he either is involved in some way, or he too has been threatened. But who knows. Too few facts and too many circus sideshows and distractions to prove anything other than these folks are truly scary and exhibit very little “normal” behavior.
I pray these people (whomever is responsible) do not take the truth to the grave with them. Haleigh is out there somewhere and she needs to be brought home! NOW! GRRRRRR
God bless you stilllucy! I havea great niece who is in the special olympics , it is such a great organization!
jaba: I don’t recall Misty ever fessing up to smoking a joint with Tommy. But, AS said that Misty was fine when she stopped by with the clean laundry for HaLeigh and Jr. That’s all I got, Sorry.
Bye Stilllucy!
Bye M2C!
Hey Alex! How are you!?
Lady Sadie, about Ron working overtime. I wasnt thinking about whether he could have left or not….i was thinking about Misty. Did she know he would be working over? Or was she expecting him home at midnight??????????
Hi JB!
Jaba – I agree with Stilllucy – I don’t think Misty ever admitted to even smoking the joint…I believe that info came from Tommy. I don’t really doubt it occurred….but as far as I know, Misty never admitted to it.
JB LOVE your 1:22 post. I am right there with you.
oops it was StillLucy i was responding to, not LadySadie. Do you think Misty knew Ron was working until 3, or did she expect him home at midnight?
Alex: I have quite a few clients that totally enjoy the games. Keeps em busy and gives them something to join in on. It’s a blast but 100 degree temps, not excited.
JB: Where are standing with TN’s involvement?
As far as the info goes, I think everone knew that Ron was working until 3am. That’s why I lean toward the idea that Misty had left the MH that night. I think that was the window of opportunity. IMO

—————–
I guess it depends on what time he found out there was a barge coming in that had to be unloaded. Did he know early on and mention it to Misty or Tommy when he called him? Or was it later in the night? So if they knew he was working late that pushes the time for what every happened to Haleigh till after midnite or if they didn’t know whatever happened to Haleigh happened between 10:30 (after Lindsy got home) and midnight.
My two cents on TN is i do not see anything odd about her being there so quickly or having an 8×10 with her. I doubt that she was there or knew anything was going on until she got the call and hightailed it over there. However, I do think it is quite possible that she came to know what really happened very quickly after the fact, and would cover and mislead for her Ronnie.
Hi everyone…
Happy Hump Day..
Hello SIMON AND JAN…
Justice for HaLeigh… where is that baby?
are there ANY updates????
THATS what i was thinkin Vaquera! If Misty did not know Ron wouldnt be home until 3 and expected him at midnight, that would radically change some of my theories.
stilllucy- once it hits 84, it might as well be 100 to me. I have never been able to tolerate the sun/heat! I turn red, blister and when the pain subsides, I try to stay indoors if the temp rises.
As far as the info goes, I think everone knew that Ron was working until 3am. That’s why I lean toward the idea that Misty had left the MH that night. I think that was the window of opportunity. IMO
was thinking this too
one thing I just thought about to add..
in the chat room this past Sunday.. .there was someone in there that claimed to be a friend to Casey or Cindy Anthony. I consider myself still a newbie to this blog site and also the radio show. The comments and trolling of the above mentioned issue really took precedent over anything with HaLeigh or even Caylee. I like to chat with a few of my new friends that I have made in this chat room but it was sad that alot of that 90 minutes was so smeared buy useless drama.
I agree with Jan…. please let’s focus on these two children so we can be their voices of reason…
Thank you for letting me have this quick lunch hour moment… I will be back to check in a few hours.
sorry, spellcheck: “by”
Ron went into work early his job started at 5 so 8 hours would end at 1:30. He worked 1.5 hours over time. It was said he worked over because a bardge came in late. He also was working at a different job than crane operator. He was in an unsupervised area but was seen some of the night, someone said he was in the lunchroom when he usually ate elsewhere. His lawyer stated some of this on NG show. jmo
tobias: Do we really trust the information that we get from NG or Ron’s attorney, any attorney involved in this case for that matter?
I still think that Ron left PDM with help and found Misty was not there. That’s my opinion and nothing has been stated that sways my thoughts.
That was for those that aren’t aware of where I stand IMO……
IMO – I just do not trust Ron Cummings – there is something wrong.
tobias – well, that changes things. I thought he stayed late to unload the barge….so if he was somewhere else, unsupervised….what exactly WAS he doing and how do we really know he never left. Dang! Everytime I think I KNOW something I find out I’m wrong. UGH!
Indiana Mother: The lies, inconsistent tales, bullying, marrying a 17yr old babysitter, dead rat in the mailbox, threatening suicide…..Where do you see anything “wrong” that would make you not trust Ron? LOL
All IMO
Stilllucy – as far as TN’s involvement…..right now I’m leaning towards she wasn’t involved with the actual act but could very well have found out the truth at a later time and has done some cover-up. Some of her comments have changed a bit from one interview to the next and some of her actions are suspicious IMO. She seemed to go into damage control / protect Ronnie mode early on. Again, JMO and probably not worth a whole heck of a lot!
Just my observations.
JB: Welcome back to the dark side! I just can’t get by him not sneaking out of there that night, Sorry! And, may I add, TN helped him……IMO
Indiana – See, that’s how I’ve felt about Ron all along. I don’t trust him but I don’t have any proof, obviously, that he was involved. It is more gut instinct and has Tobias would say…”He sets off my Hinky Meter”. Now, it is possible that the boy is just a strange fellow, has really poor coping skills, is extremely immature, has some serious anger issues and is a drug addict but had absolutely nothing to do with Haleigh’s disappearance. But my gut says he was involved OR was involved in the cover-up. JMO only!
Stilllucy – I’m really trying to keep an open mind because ALL the players in this case are pretty suspicious and NONE of them seem to act in a way that I find normal. But Ron has always been on my radar and I can’t even completely explain why. Crystal and clan have pulled some dandy stunts too. And then you have the Croslins….sheesh….they’re like the keystone cop version of the mafia! LOL
JB: Too funny! They’ve been referred to as the Hatfields’ and the McCoys’ but, I see them more as the Clampitts’!
Oh, it is going to be a long time until August 23, when Misty goes on trial for the drug stuff. I wonder how long each drug trial will take? Because after Misty’s is over, if there is still no arrest, that is when I will really be sure that the mom’s family took her. It has been way too long since the St. John’s River search and nothing again!!
Cate: Sometimes it takes an individual to actually be sentenced to prison and get there before they see the light and talk. In my experience, they just don’t think it’s going to happen until it does. I still believe that Misty doesn’t really know what exactly happen.
Cate – yes, I was really thinking we’d have answers by now. After the river search and SH’s comments about arrests being made shortly, I thought they had their answers. Now it is WAY too quiet, no new info, no new tapes, no press releases, nothing, zip, zilch…. I’m starting to wonder if our precious baby will ever receive justice.
Stilllucy – well, I think Granny had more teeth than Lisa but Tommy is a little bit like Jethro when I stop and think about it! I’m trying to picture Misty with blonde hair, daisy duke shorts tied with a rope and cooking up a batch of her easy mac version of the famous Ellie Mae biscuits! LMAO
lucy – jb
”…It is more gut instinct and has Tobias would say…”He sets off my Hinky Meter”.’
AGREED!
Lies and deciet just spins around and around on Ron’s tounge. Now that he is set to serve 15 years – I am sure his fellow in-mates will find other uses for such a clever tounge…
I know we have to keep the faith but, I don’t see a good resolution coming out of any of this. We may never know the truth and the real loser will be HaLeigh. I don’t think anyone involved in this has shown her any respect. IMO
Have a good day, gotta run……Later
Indiana Mother: A fellow Hoosier! Too funny!
Have a good day.
Stilllucy – you know, I think that is why I’m so suspicious of these people. The lack of respect they have shown for Haleigh is unbelievable. They’ve all made comments that about made my head explode in disbelief. From Ron talking about gators eating his child to Misty’s comments about how babysitting Haleigh ruined her birthday to “I don’t knows if she was dead when she hits that water or not” from Grandma Hollars. Every single one of them has said or done something that was SO disrespectful, so downright WRONG on every level that I think it makes me more suspicious of them. WHO talks about a missing child the way these people do? UGH!
OFF TOPIC – Oil Spill – well, now there is a tropical storm forming that has the potential to grow and head right to where the damaged rig is! AND, a robot that BP was using hit something it shouldn’t so now MORE oil is flowing than before. GREEEAAAAATTTTT! It just keeps getting better….NOT!
Joran Van Der Sloot – has this guy ever told the same story twice? He confesses, he recants, he confesses but in a different way….I’ve never seen anything like it. And with the bloody clothes in his luggage, a camera right outside his room showing he was the only person coming and going, a TON of other evidence, does he REALLY think anyone cares if he confesses or not? I mean, REALLY? Who needs a confession at this point? Oh, but he’s more concerned with all the women who now want to marry him….WHAT? UGH! He and Casey Anthony would be a perfect match! Neither is in touch with reality and they both believe their own pathetic lies.
Okay, back to Haleigh….just had to have a quick off topic rant. Please forgive!
”…Every single one of them has said or done something that was SO disrespectful, so downright WRONG on every level that I think it makes me more suspicious of them. WHO talks about a missing child the way these people do? UGH!”
I remember on Nancy Grace how discusted I was when Granny Hollars intimated that Haleigh was sexually defiled by her two grandsons… what the?! Haleigh’s Greatgrandma – Annette Sykes – was equally shocked – stunned silent by such an alligation – and she is not even related to the Croslin/Overstreet boys.

Ron went into work early his job started at 5 so 8 hours would end at 1:30. He worked 1.5 hours over time. It was said he worked over because a bardge came in late. He also was working at a different job than crane operator. He was in an unsupervised area but was seen some of the night, someone said he was in the lunchroom when he usually ate elsewhere. His lawyer stated some of this on NG show. jmo
—————-
That’s not what he said. He said Ron was a crane operator and also did other stuff when needed, he never said it was that night. I just reread the transcript recently. Who said he was in a unsupervised area?
Indiana Mother, thanks for reminding me that I still haven’t watched the NG episode with AS and FH.
stilllucy, That is a really good point. Misty is young and easily still in the “it can’t happen to me” mindset. If there is anything she hasn’t said perhaps it will come out after her sentencing.
JB, Yes, so QUIET! Deafening. Maybe July 7, when Tommy is sentenced? And Ron’s trial two days later? Or does Ron have a deal accepted for 15 years like someone alluded to above?
Cate – I don’t know if Ron’s “deal” fell through or not. I haven’t heard anymore about it. There for awhile his atty was shouting from the rooftop he was cutting a deal for Ron….and now…nothing….to me that sounds like it might have fallen through. I never understood why LE needed Ron’s testimony against the others anyway…they’ve got them on video for Pete’s sake. What could Ron really offer that would help the case at this point? I think he could do more damage than good IMO!
rons attorney was talking plea deal, I don’t think the d/a ever responded.
jaba – so you haven’t heard anymore about Ron’s “deal” either? I bet it never happened. I never did understand what his atty thought he could bring to the table or how he could help the case! He sure made it sound like it was a done deal though.
I’ve always thought the possiblity of Ron getting a plea deal were about the same odds of him being a “character witness” for Hope.
Jnet – good point. I guess I assumed his atty actually knew what he was talking about. He seemed very confident. While I never understood what would be in it for the prosecution, I really thought the atty sounded like he knew it was in the works.
So why do we not get videos/tapes of Ron? Does anyone know? Is it the facility he is in? They don’t record calls/visits?
One explanation for R’s attorney announcing that R was going to provide testimony for a plea deal MIGHT have been to scare someone else into thinking that R was giving info about drugs or Haleigh so that THEY would jump in and try to beat him to it – they’d give info to LE in exchange for a deal.
R could have been a willing participant OR LE could have used him to play one person off another, you know? It’s just an idea. I think one of the reasons for the drug sting was to try to squeeze info out of somebody either about higher ups in the drug biz or about Haleigh and this is one way LE could try to do it. Again, just an idea.
M2C – That is a possibility. Surely the atty wasn’t that bold to talk about a deal if he wasn’t sure it was going to happen OR if it wasn’t some sort of ploy. I sure would like to hear/see some calls/visits with Ron though. TOO quiet on his end if you ask me.
JB I thought Ron was doing like the Anthony’s and not having any jail house visits or making calls….which I shared on this blog, however someone else told me that wasn’t true. I could swear I heard his attorney say they he was declining all visits/calls based on the attorney’s advice, because he (the atty) was not happy about the jailhouse interview and the conversation with tn about the “snitch”. Unfortunately I can not find any of this in print now, so apparently it made sense to me so I decided it was fact
I have no idea of why none of his tapes are being released, because personally, I think he and his side of the family are much better actors than the Croslins.
I also wonder why Tommy’s UC drug sting tape has never been released. What do you think, please?
Lord have mercy, did that sentence make ANY sense at all? ROFLMAO
What I was TRYING to say is….very possible….I wouldn’t think the atty would be spouting all the claims about a deal in the works if he thought there was a chance it wouldn’t go through. That would be hard for his client to deal with that kind of disappointment and the atty would have an awful lot of egg on his face. Sure, I can see Baez doing something like that but I thought this guy was a little smarter. So perhaps you are correct and it was just a ploy to shake up the others. Anything is possible in this case!
Jnet- Did you hear Hope being all mushy over Ron in the call to her mom! All excited, Guess who I rode with? I said I loved him and he said he loved me and we came in contact with each other. She was swooning! That girl has serious problems!
Oh I’m sorry, another person had said the communication systems between the two jails were completely different and the jail RC is in has an aniquated system that makes it extremely hard to tape/record jail visists, but I am not sure how that relates to the phone calls. So I have not a clue of why none have been released, unless he is using the Anthony plan, just as I have no idea of why his atty would announce the plea deal… just doesnt make sense to me anyway.
JB, I wasn’t saying the attorney was knowingly saying something without R’s knowledge or agreement (that’s against the rules) and especially if it’s something untrue. Either R knows, is in on it, or LE is playing R and his lawyer. Just possibilities.
Jnet – that is very curious about Ron’s calls – so we really aren’t sure one way or another (if he’s getting calls/visits), right? I mean does anyone have fact to prove it one way or another? It would probably be wise for him not to make/take calls/visits. Look at the mess Misty and Tommy have made. I mean, we did get the info on his initial conversations….and then nothing…..so maybe he truly did stop talking to anyone on the outside….but do we know that for a FACT? HMMMMMMMM…..anyone know for SURE?
Good question about the Tommy UC tape. Maybe there is something on it that LE doesn’t want out. Something that was said or done. It could be something that makes LE look bad or because something was said about the Haleigh case (By Tommy) OR about a higher up drug connection (Statements By Tommy giving names of dealers). I wouldn’t think LE would release it if any one of these scenarios occurred. Of course, we have no way of knowing which one it is or if it is any of these scenarios…..it is JMO that these are some possibilities as to why they have not released it.
Alex, I completely agree!! Hope mf’s her mother, her family and is in a horrible mood, just an insufferable brat (I still think the 15 yr sentence was ridiculous tho) and then when she starts talking about Ron it was like he was some kind of “Don” of the family or major celebrity…it made me uncomfortable just listening to it.. Remember she and Ron were “two steps ahead” of everyone else, and had it all figured out. There are many things that make me sad in this case but in this situation the adoration and ignorance of Hope thinking she had Ron to take care of her drug case/conviction…. and the fact that I am very afraid from Ron on down or up in that family DO believe he is a celebrity.
M2C – No, I was just saying that perhaps the atty WAS trying to get a deal and thought there was a good possiblity of getting one and screwed up by saying it was basically a done deal before it was ever finalized. If the deal fell through he would have egg on his face and Ron would be VERY understandably upset from getting his hopes up. I was saying I would be really surprised if the atty in fact did that as it WOULD be very unprofessional and unfair to Ron. The atty on numerous occassions made it sound like it was pretty much a done deal. You would think he would keep his trap shut and not mention it until the ink was dry on any deal that was made. I was actually agreeing with you that perhaps it WAS a ploy to get the others talking because I thought Ron’s atty was smarter than to talk about a deal that wasn’t final. Phew….did that make any sense that time? LOL
Jnet= exactly my feelings!
JB – If you beleive Hope in her call to her mom, she says Ron told her he was offered 25 years. Maybe his attorney wanted to bargain it down to 15 but the State wouldn’t budge from the 25!
JB- I truly do NOT know for sure, you know when you think you have read or heard something, and it is just your own logic lol? No seriously I am not that silly, but I can’t find it written anywhere, and I am sorry there is no way I could go back and listen to all of the NG tapes to see if it was discussed there. There has to be some reason RC’s haven’t been released, as I said, my gosh, they can’t be any worse than the TC MC tapes.
Jnet- Misty, Tommy & Donna are in the same jail.
Where was Hope, was she in Putnam County?
There had been a question before about whether the Sheffield side had ever taken LDT’s. It is stated in the Florida Bar Complaint against Kim Picazio that Marie Griffis did take a LVAT (Layer Voice Analysis Test).
Alex, I thought Hope was in the same jail as Ron, but I have to defer to the experts… that is just an assumption on my part.
JB @ 4:25 – Yep! I understand now!
LadySadie: MG’s LVAT would have been privately given I’m sure. Not by LE. All orchestrated by their attorney, KP. So, just like the search of their property it’s all whitewash/CTA (Covering Their Azz) IMO – just to make themselves look good to the public. Do you agree? (it’s okay if you don’t. just wondering)
Alex – Well, if Ron was in on the “ploy” he would be telling Hope and anyone else who would listen he was getting a deal because he knew it would get back to Tommy and Misty.
I don’t really know what to think. It is possible that the atty really thought he could get Ron a deal, he shot off his mouth and the deal fell through. It is also very possible that it was a ploy to make the others think that if they started flapping their gums and coughing up some info, they too could get a deal. I don’t have any facts to disprove either scenario at this point. But if the atty got Ron’s hopes up about a deal, went on TV blabbing about the deal, and there really was a deal and it fell through, that is pretty sad for Ron because he is now facing a much longer sentence. Not that I will shed any tears for Ron because I’m not a big fan of Ron, but it is still pretty unprofessional of his atty to do what he did….if there really was a deal in the works. Basically his atty should have kept his mouth shut and worked the deal for his client and told the media about it AFTER the fact. BUT, if it was a ploy to get the others talking then his actions make sense.
JB- Kind of sounds like Tommy’s attorney!

I hear ya! I read things, hear things, and sometimes I think I imagine I’ve read and heard things and sometimes I hear something totally different than what was said or I misinterpret what I’ve seen and this case had drug on so long and we talked about it so much that it all starts to blur a little. Tobias and M2C are two of the folks on here that can recall the facts the best. They can tell you the name of the article, the date, time, author, and tell you where to find it! I’m constantly in awe of those who can keep this tangled mess straight in their minds. I stay lost! LOL
mrsm said,in June 23rd, 2010 at 1:40 pm My two cents on TN is i do not see anything odd about her being there so quickly or having an 8×10 with her. I doubt that she was there or knew anything was going on until she got the call and hightailed it over there. However, I do think it is quite possible that she came to know what really happened very quickly after the fact, and would cover and mislead for her Ronnie
- – -
I agree with most of what you said, mrsm. If I got a call like that in the middle of the night I could grab a photo from my bedroom, kitchen and/or living room on the way out the door. If a child goes missing that’s one of the first thing LE needs.
I’ve even got photos of my pets in case one of them decides to take themselves off on a jaunt without me.
I’m not sure about the covering mode though. I think arriving on the scene she would not suspect her son of anything so that seems natural to me. Do you mean later on some time?
(Not sure you’re here to answer. If not we’ll catch up later)
Alex – yes, it does! Tommy’s atty has been telling him he’ll not do more than 3 years….now, that might be true but based on what we’ve seen so far I’m thinking Tommy might be royally disappointed come sentencing time…but I could be wrong. Maybe his atty knows something we don’t. We haven’t seen Tommy’s UC tape and maybe Tommy has offered up some names of dealers or something to help lower his charges and sentence. Hard to tell. Tommy sure seems certain he’s not going to do much time.
m2c- The strange thing about TN taking the picture is that she said she thought HaLeigh was hiding! Why would you need a picture to hind a child that was hiding?
Alex – LOL – good point. Like I’ve said a million times, nothing these people say or do makes sense to me and that is why I’m FOREVER suspicious of all of them. They just don’t act NORMAL IMVHO!
Alexandria, you’re right but it probably wasn’t the only thing she was thinking. And if the search went into the next day, then LE might need to be able to find Haleigh in a group of other kids somewhere – possibly. Like if she crawled out of a shrub to join some kids playing or whatever. To me it was a simple, smart very basic common sense thing to do. But that’s jmo.
Alexandria Loring said,in June 23rd, 2010 at 4:29 pm JB – If you beleive Hope in her call to her mom, she says Ron told her he was offered 25 years. Maybe his attorney wanted to bargain it down to 15 but the State wouldn’t budge from the 25!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
this is correct, ron will plead guilty to all counts and be sentenced to 25.
Possibly 25 for each count but they will run concurrent.
Misty will take it to trial and be exonerated,
NOT GUILTY all counts.
I don’t know why it took Crystal so long to get her behind there when she found out her child was missing. I don’t know why they lied about Chad’s whereabouts. I don’t understand the whole “fake search” thing AT all. I don’t understand Ron marrying Misty, or why he then divorced her but continued to hang out with her, I don’t understand Ron’s comments about the rat…it being a test for Misty…to see how she acts when she lies….I don’t understand why Misty’s story changes so much or why Tommy’s story has changed so much. I don’t understand why TN was all happy with Misty one minute and hating on her the next. I don’t understand her comments about the picture or Haleigh hiding. I don’t understand how Ron could talk about his child being eaten by alligators. I don’t know why the Jr. comment about a man in black, a black man and squeaky shoes hasn’t been clarified and why Crystal wouldn’t push Jr for info, I don’t understand why Ron was merely disappointed in Misty when the river search took place…..I don’t get ANY of it!

********
Nope it was administered by Putnam County Sheriffs Office and Peggy Cone was in attendance during the testing. That part is clearly stated in the Florida Bar Complaint against Kim P.
OJ- You think Ron will take the 25, when his lawyer said 15? My thought was he too may take it to trial. If he does and they are tried together, I think Misty will go down hard just for being with him! She should take a plea.
I agree with Alex, I cannot for the life of me imagine getting that type of a call in the middle of the night and having the mind set to grab an 8×10 picture with me before running out of the house. Of course none of us know what we would do unless we were in that specific situation, however to me, it seems a bit contrived.
Her trial will be worth her risk, imo.
And more info will come out about what they do or don’t have on her.
All we’ve seen are edited video from LE.
Certainly she has some defense against those tapes.
jaba- I know we haven’t seen any Tommy uc drug videos, but do you know if either Ron or Misty were in the car with Tommy! Or was he alone with the undercover?
I do not see anything wrong with TN grabbing a photo of Haleigh. If I recall correctly (and I may be wrong) Ron was on the phone with his mother while Misty was making the 911 call. They all were probably hoping Haleigh was playing hide and seek but no one calls 911 without thinking something was very wrong. Ron was not clearly thinking as anyone can hear his rants on the 911 call so TN probably knew a picture would be needed and brought one with her. I commend her for this thinking as it could very well delay getting word out to the media without this picture. Just my opinion though.

Hope said ron was offered 25..no way the DA budges from that. His lawyer sayin 15 on TV was a negotiating ploy. They won’t be tried together, (1)ron won’t take it to trial (2)misty’s lawyer would not allow it.
Mistys taking it to 12, guaranteed.
Robin- I still think Ron should have had a least one picture of his daughter in the home. Just seems strange to me that TN wouldn’t think there was one there!
LadySadie: Thanks. I didn’t know that. Unbelievable really. LDT’s are unreliable as it is nevermind voice layer test. And why not an LDT?
To be honest the whole thing worries me even more. Peggy Cone was working closely with KP from the start which was extremely inappropriate. Now all of that I find very suspicious.
I’m not sure, alex.
I’m agreeing with what was said earlier about perhaps he gave a name or two LE didn’t want public for some investigative issue.
The initial calls where misty agrees to deal will be the key to her defense, imo.
Alex, why do you think R didn’t have a photo of Haleigh? Because TN brought one with her? When a group of people are looking for a child the more pictures the better. TN may have planned to walk or drive around and have a photo with her to ask people about. I just don’t get this suspicion because she did a common sense thing – but that’s just me.
Those tapes of misty, ron and hope together will be hard to overcome.
m2c- If she thought HaLeigh was hiding and Haleigh was afraid of the dark then she wouldn’t need to drive around showing a picture to anyone! jmo
I have no idea if Ron had pictures in his home or not. Believe me I wondered that myself. But Ron sounded beside himself in that 911 call (whether staged or not) and maybe the 911 operator told them not to touch anything in the MH (which would be protocol I would think). TN (maybe in her dispatcher experience) knew a picture might very well be needed so she brought one just in case. I think for an Amber Alert to be issued a recent picture would be needed (my opinion only) and TN grabbed one so as not to delay.
Does anyone here think it means anything that Haleigh is still listed as a missing person with the FBI? Or will it just take a while, after the Amber Alert was canceled, for the FBI to revise?
m2c, i’ve been in and out workin on a paper. I’m not sure how or when TN might have found out what happened, it just seems to me she and her boy are tight tight tight, and her jail conversation was suspicious. She seemed to be leading him to say what she wanted him to get out there. However, i just dont think that means she was in on it from the start and coaching the 911 call etc. It seemed pretty genuine to me. Let me clarify that by saying i think Ron and Misty sounded sincere in thier distress. That DOES NOT mean they were not in some way culpable.
Cate- That does seem strange!
but i do think that for someone who worked with LE, as a dispatcher yet, it is not strange to me at all that she would grab a photo off the wall and her LE jacket on her way out her door. SHe knows the pic will be needed if indeed Haleigh is missing, and she knows if there is a crowd of people at the “crime scene” she will get through easier with her LE jacket. JMHO
mrms- now that is an interesting take on why she may have taken the jacket!
That has always seemed like a no brainer to me Alex. When i was little my dad’s best friend was a retired firechief. He always went to fires like he was supporting the team, and he always wore his old fire department windbreaker so he could get through the crowd and be easily identified as someone “OK” to be crossing the line.
mrsm I agree with both your posts.
It is illegal to mislead anyone into believing that you are a sworn officer! Her jacket looked to be the kind that are available for Purchase, not Issued a VERY BIG DIFFERENCE! And besides that, thought she no longer worked there, was she still employed at that time?
During the latest search of the river the police said they found bones. Most of them were animal bones. However , they did state that they sent ONE bone to the UF lab to be analyzed. Guess what , it turned out to be a human bone. The police didn’t lie about not finding human bones , because , I think , they didn’t know what kind of bone it was at the time. That’s why they sent it off to the lab. I think the police are doing the best they can. When they are dealing with a bunch of liars who had 5 to 6 hours to cover up a crime scene , there’s not much more the police can do! At this point , I don’t think we will ever know the truth about what happened to Haleigh. In my honest opinion , the ex-newlyweds and others had every motive under the sun to cover up a crime against Haleigh. Ask yourself , would you rather go to prison for drug trafficking or MURDER ???!!!
I see just about everyone involved as suspicious in one way or another, but not always for the same reason others do. For example, i dont think it is that telling that CS went back to sleep after she got the call. I’m betting she’d been thru plenty of antics thru the custody fight with Ron and half asleep may have dismissed it as more BS. That is not to say i have eliminated CS as a suspect. I mean what was the thing about her pretending to rescusitate Haleigh after finding her floating????? Seems like there is a major vendetta there and bitterness against one’s ex can make a person do crazy things.
We’re all different, with different experiences and points of view so I think it’s understandable that we see and interpret things differently.
BA i think she was a part of the “good ol’ boy network” and not still being employed by LE was a technicality. She probably had beers at the VFW with these boys every wing nite. (JMO) If she was familiar with even half the force no one would say anything about her showing up in an LE jacket. Its normal. Lots of people especially in small towns wear firefighter or sherriff gear. Ever attend a “turkey shoot” LOL JMO
M2c @ 6:04- I totally agree!
mrsm, I don’t see anything suspicious either but it’s because my impression of CS is that she was totally ambivalent about her children – maybe because of depression or drugs I don’t know. But they were not a top priority to her IMO.
Off the subject- Does anyone beleive Joran is innocent? He sure changes his story or has lots of inconsustent statements!
I agree with you both. Everyone sees Everything through the lens of their own experiences.
mrsm said,in June 23rd, 2010 at 6:03 pm “I see just about everyone involved as suspicious in one way or another, but not always for the same reason others do”
–
Yes, exactly. Me too.
I know about all that, I still have my Sheriff dept purchased gear and a few Official Caps!
m2c, i too saw CS as very ambivalent about her kids, and sis not give her much of a thought for a long time. In the last couple weeks some here have shifted my opinion on that a bit as there was money involved…and like i said…bitterness. There is major bitterness with Ron’s other baby mama too.
but regardless of the fact that i can see major motive on the sheffield side, i cant escape all the stuff from TC to GHollers and Misty pointing at TC JO (although i guess she did start out pointing at CS’s side)Ron seeming so controlling of Misty and what she said in interviews…the list of suspicious stuff from MC TC and RC (and CC for that matter!)just goes on and on for me. I cant ignore it.
mrsm I heard cs say on an interview that rc had called her at different times telling her crazy things.I don’t know if it’s true or not.Before anyone asks, I don’t remember who asked her about it.I just remenber hearing it.I really don’t think either one has resolved their feelings toward each other.jmo
GMA5 that wouldnt surprise me. It seems pretty clear to me Ronny controlled his females thru scare tactics (gun in mouth)and game playing goes right along with that imo
Cathy Jo,how are you doing tonight?? Hope you are ok.
lol, i dont think Ron had “unresolved feelings” for Crystal, its just that once a control freak controls a female its for life to them. He had traded her in on a newer model 2 gals ago…no unresolved feelings there, just still needing to be in control…jmo
As soon as LE arrived the trailer became a crime scene and nothing would be allowed to be taken out till the scene was processed, so it’s not a big deal she brought a picture. Ron and Misty wasn’t even allowed to get clothes out of there when LE took their clothes to be processed.
agreed vaq
Hi everyone…
terrible rains here in Illinois….
to Alexandria.. I totally think Joran is guilty… he is a poster boy for pathological liar…
he will milk this idea of NOW saying he wasn’t provided a translator for the questioning.. thus creating reasonable doubt early on..
we an at least smile for the time being that something with 4 legs can continue to climb out of the “toliet” in his cell….lol
same for Misty… not as bad with the bathroom accomodations… but she is in bed every night and not lying and drugging outside her celly…
Grandma, I agree with the unresolved feelings, I think that is what alot of people do, when they haven’t/couldn’t get over the end of a relationship, they go from partner to partner. Especially when that relationship started at such a young age.
I think ron sees people (kids included) as possessions. Thus the language Haleigh was “stole”.

“The agency had an anthropologist at the scene that identified all “biological” items that were recovered as being non-human.”
So yes LE did lie about this.
Hey there all my BNN buddys:
Just had to stop in for a minute. I miss you all, so I hope I can come back later and join in. For now, it’s out to try and tackle the lawn before it rains again. I think it’s still 90 degrees, but it’s looking like a jungle, so better put my headband on and play like Rambo and just “get er done”. Lol
Take care guys, later
Nice to see you Storm!
iltsm- lol on the four legged creatures! too bad there aren’t some snakes to slime over the bunch in HaLeigh’s case!
I have heard of so many couples doing these stupid things after one leaves the other.There is one couple around here.It was the mother’s time to have the little boy.He ripped his pants doing something.She took him back to his dads to get some.Well he had a protective order against her and he called the police on her and had her arrested.She was just sitting in the car waiting on him.The dad is a hot head.The little boy was so upset and the police didn’t like it either but their hands were tied.The first thing when a couple seperate they run out and get p.o.s against each.The h*** with the poor kids feelings.I will never understand how their minds work.Same way with this bunch.ITA about the scare tactics.jmo
vaquera- then LE shouldn’t have let anything or anyone into the crime scene!
mrsm- absolutely agree, everyone 7 everything is a possession to Ron!
right, Alexandria on the snakes…
Teresa could give that tour again in the woods.. with Cobra…hahahahah
Hi everyone. I just stepped over to the new blog. Jan, thank you for writing what you did. I noticed that some still feel they have to get the last word in on how they were the victim, blah, blah. That’s truly what keeps it going a lot of the times. I hope that person sees who they are.
However, its really great to keep reading everyone’s theories and information. I knew nothing about a chair in the woods, but posted a theory on the other blog about Haleigh could of been being watched for days, weeks, etc. playing outside with the kids.
I don’t think Misty or Ron had anything to do with the actual dissapearance of Haleigh. I think Ron protected Misty from getting unfairly attacked. Misty however, is hiding something about that night and I think it is about who was in the MH. Whether she was doing a drug and strangers were over, or she had someone(s) over for a party that night, or whatever, but bottom line, she didn’t know who it was, but did not want to admit to Ron she had people over without his permission!
I have several other theories too which I have posted throughout, so sorry if no one agrees, but they are something to think about.
I even said that we should think outside the box by looking at the back door being propped open by Tommy and Joe to make Ron think there was a robbery when they came for his gun. They got high and left it that way. Misty didn’t know about it, and assumed it was that way from whoever took Haleigh. So in reality, the door may of had nothing to do with Haleigh at all.
BaC I Do think there are some of those feelings there.mrsm I also agree that he considers people as possessions.BaC I have enjoyed your posts for a long time.I don’t post much but I enjoy reading several different ones including Cathy Jo
Hi, JenM, those are some of my theories too.
mrsm, I agree with most of your 6:13 and 6:20 posts.
To clarify two things. I think M pointed at the other side of the family much later.After mentioning T and JO. And also we don’t know for sure that R is the father of Amber’s baby (if that’s who you were referring to). Many think so and it may be but it’s not for sure.
Thank you Grandma, I enjoy your wise/experienced posts.
I was referring to Amber. From what i’ve heard around here it seems like Misty played Ron and Amber against each other and it worked like a charm. Seems there are hard feelings on Ambers side. JMO
are you referring to me JenM? Jus curious
I agree. I’m glad we can comment on the substance of the article.
M2C i thought Misty pointed to CS’s side right away?? dont remember why i believed that now?
Good evening bloggers: just reading some of your posts to catch up. I am afraid that Haleigh’s case will not get coverage with the new high profile case.
I think if Amber held serious ill feelings about those two {R&M}, she would have come out and denounced them. The only “talk” that she had issues with Misty is from NayNay, and that MySpace “rant” w/ her mother defending her “honor”!
If it was that bad… why would they be in each other’s presence!
Bio, hey…
are you referring Joran’s case?
Hi Bio-hazzard- If you mean Joran, you’re right but we already know he did it! Now he’s trying to say it’s manslaughter not murder! What a joke1
I hope this case is quiet for a reason… I am hoping that soon there will be some sort of announcement or breaking update…
I think LE is thinking Misty or Tommy still is going to crack…
pray that this little child can get some justice and defense…
SHAME on the person or persons responsible.. if you aren’t found out in this world, your time will still come…
I think that most of the USA doesn’t know who HaLeigh Cummings is and those who do know think she is dead and it’s all wrapped up after that St. John’s River search and now there are higher profile crimes. It is more important than ever to keep track of what happens in this case!!
i have always thought the shell harbor dock was a red herring thrown out by TC and MC to frame JO. But wouldnt LE think the same thing? Why spend so much money and resources to do the search and announce the case a homicide if it was another goosechase? to save face? Do they really believe TC? They must! What else would they base homicide on at that point in time?
i agree Cate, i didnt know anything about this case until i moved to St. Augustine.
this case for some reason has a lot of followers… I actually would say die hard concerned people that really want the answers found. We have to keep it out there… hope that LE or even some of the involved individuals do an online search and read what we think….
No little child deserves to have the life this one had… did anyone protect her? In the end, sadly not…
i doubt LE pays any attention to a blog if they are even aware it exists. They might pay attention if we wrote to them or something, but as is i doubt we are on the radar.
lurk:off
m2c……
so glad to see some of the originals back. opinions and theories are personal but to see some of the originals back makes me have renewed faith in this blog for Haleigh. as i have done for 16 months i will continue to read (and skip ALOT of the needless posts) and wait for Haleigh to be brought home..one way or the other.
lurk:on
awfully quiet
Yea, Joran will be in the news media home and abroad. Like Casey Anthony. I hope everyone tells us how the case is unfolding. I go back and forth. The last few days I’m going for stranger abduction & law enforcement with blinders on.
ilovetheshowmadmadmen you’re right there are many people devoted to Haleigh so keeping her name out there will be even more important with cases that are high profile (I mean they have people that are with money).
mrsm.. I will introduce myself..
hello, I am west of Chicago… how’s it going?
howdy west of chicago ..i am st augustine, goin just fine here ;0
so.. what is your take on what happened to HaLeigh?
omg i DONT KNOW! lol dont trust any of em!
really convinced TC MC and RC KNOW what happened to HAleigh. But at the same time i dont think if the case broke tomorrow anything would surprise me.
you?
the longer this case goes unsolved, the chance of this child being found gets less and less.
the parents, the grandparents, the relative…… wow is all I can say. I agree with you.
St. Augustine is in Florida?? right?
M2m was a parental test? Also LE might have used Ron getting plea deal to get info. from others. But why pick Ron that would be only if they didn’t consider him in Haleigh’s disappearance or the drug bust. Ron would be more involved in drugs around town then Misty. Misty didn’t live in this area very long before Haleigh went missing?
yes, i’m very close to Satsuma. MC and TC are in the jail 5 min from my house.
only been here since November tho, originally from PA
Even if LE does not pay attention to the blog’s I let PCSO know of my interest in the progress of the case by emailing Sheriff Hardy every other week asking for an update on any progress. I usually just get the standard, this is an active ongoing investigate and no details can be released at this time, but at least he knows someone is still following the case.
oh, gosh… so.. has the case really died down in that part?
it is not on the news daily thats fer sure. Havent heard anything since shell harbor…my neighbors dont even know what i am talking about when i mention the case
Mrsm–What are the locals saying about the case and who is involved? Have you heard anything interesting? Just curious.
GREAT JOB LadySaide *pattin u on the back*
Sadie….sorry im dislexic with ur name for some reason
mrsm- what part of PA? We use to spend our summers in PA with my Granny. Hokendaqua! One of the suburbs of Allentown! I thinkit’s called Whitehall now! That was a change from NYC too!
no problem mrsm, I’ve been called worse, LOL.
i was far far from Allentown, i am from north western PA, about an hour north of pittsburgh
got my BA from Penn State(closer to Allentown) and Masters from Slippery Rock University
LadySadie- That’s a good idea, we should all do it!
plzstfu said,in June 23rd, 2010 at 8:02 pm
Hi! Good to see you too! I hope we all have renewed faith in this blog and each other and somehow can KEEP the faith that Haliegh’s disappearance will be solved.
LadySadie: I am SO GLAD you email PCSO regularly. I know others have written at various times. It’s really good to let them know there are eyes still on them. One of our bloggers is the person who went thru the formal channels to try to get the Sunshine Law invoked (starting with writing PCSO). I’m sure that’s why they keep replying that it’s an on-going investigation because that’s the ONLY way to fend off the Sunshine Law.
Feel free to mention that you are also writing on behalf of a number of people who are watching the case closely! (meaning us!) And some of us can write too from time to time individually. It’s really really good to keep them on their toes!
awesome LadySadie… care to give that email address out of the sheriff? I would also do that..
Mrs.M… serious? your neighbors don’t know about this case? Have you been to the St. John’s River area where LE took Misty?
BAC yes I have experience,don’t know about wise part.lol I do love that all my g-kids come to me and tell me things to see what my opinion is before their parents some times.Ages 23,21, 19,almost 16, and 10.I’m proud of my 3 sons and that my husband & I have been blessed to still be together thru war and so many other things.We were married really young n grew up with our kids.lol Young kids need someone to talk to and unconditional love.My GMAs were there for me.It kills me to see how many generations in this mess haven’t had any support from anyone. Sorry didn’t mean to write a book.lol
no havent been to the river or the mh but been meaning to take a ride down there sometime
Sheriff Hardy’s email address is:
jhardy@putnamsheriff.org
Thank you Lady.. already on my Friday to do list…THANKS@@@@@
mrsm…is the alligator issue really rampant in that river?
mrsm, we’ll have to get together and make that ride together, LOL. I can’t go this Friday but am thinking about making the ride next Friday.
Thanks- LadySadie
Well mrsm you should go to the court cases and check them out. Give us the low down on how their looking. Lady Sadie could you send an email address?
ilove, I live close to the same area as mrsm, and from about April until usually mid-october I see several alligators daily.
Bio, just posted the email address but here it is again – btw, it is a government email address so no legal problems with posting it:
jhardy@putnamsheriff.org
i thought about going to misty’s last court appearance in st johns but thought it was pretty much a waste of time as i knew she would be in and out in no time and nuthin much would happen
Lady.. I guess that is just really HARD for a midwesterner to envision… like.. in your yard? or.. water???
what about snakes?
r u in ponte vedra LS?
alligators in ponds rivers anywhere there is water or swamp,which is everywhere in coastal florida
LadySadie- if it’s not asking too much could you & mrsm check out the jail log to see if Ron is getting visits we don’t know about? Only if you have time & it’s not out of your way! How I’d love to go with you!
havent really seen snakes but i havent lived here that long….big a** spiders tho…HUGE! LOL all bugs here are supersize
this may sound totally bizarre, but if I was in Florida.. I would scope out these areas of interest… study the case IMMENSELY with all information that there was.. and then just see what fits and what doesn’t as far a time lines, etc….
ron is in putnam county jail so we’d have to check that if we traveled down there i guess
i hear you madman, but im workin on Phd, dont have alot of leisure time
at least kids are outta school now
me too Alexandria… ROAD TRIP ANYONE??
ilove, I work for the school system in St. Johns County and one of the schools I go to is surrounded by a state natural preserve, lots of water, ponds, marsh and creeks all around the school. There is a large water retention pond in front of the school that is totally surrounds by fencing, several alligator like to “sun” themselves on the banks of the pond, and sometimes they will wonder onto the fields from the marsh, but that is usually in the summer when the students aren’t running around and making noise. I haven’t seen the snakes but the maintenance people tell me they are more of a problem than the alligators. I have had several snakes in my backyard and a couple have made there way into my screened in porch, but learned a trick from the University of Florida, snakes (of any type) can’t stand the smell of mothballs so I started placing mothballs between the screening and paneling on my porch about 2 years ago and haven’t seen a snake since. About every 3 months I drop a few more mothballs around.
Yes, mrsm, in Ponte Vedra Beach.
i know that school my son went there. PVHS kids drive BMW’s to school lol
i lived there for about 4 months or so LS too rich for my blood, souldnt keep up.
Yea, mrsm, the student parking lot has the bmw, mercedes, volvo’s and the staff parking lot has the fords, toyotas, kia’s, LOL.
its really nice tho….much nicer than st aug
Yea, mrsm, LOL, the student parking lot has the bmw’s, mercedes, volvo’s and the staff parking lot has the fords, toyota’s and kia’s.
I have heard that about snakes getting in through screens. Last trip to Orlando on a plane person sitting next to me shared that when she moved from Illinois, she was clueless. Didn’t know there was a season when they reproduced or whatever.. and one day she went down the stairs and had several in her kitchen that had come in thru a screen door…
that did it for me.. NO WAY could I deal with that. I have that phobia WAY too much.. I will take the blizzards and below zero first!
thanks for sharing that Lady.. does this mean you have summers off??
No unfortunately ilove, my position is administrative and we work year round, we do get the Christmas breaks off though and vacation time.

Hey Beautiful*Adams , good to see you,
Holy smoke you guys are freaking me out with the snakes & gators. I’m with you ilovetheshowmadmen. I’d be outta there. As much as I dislike snow, I’m grateful for it after hearing that.

Vaquera: where do they think these people will come up with the money charges?
But cent he has no court dates till July and that’s for sentencing, he already pled guilty to all his charges. This has to be about Haleigh.
Doesn’t he have something on the divorce?
Vaq, yes… I thought so too! Let’s all hope and pray that something is about to move this along!

Not sure what you are talking about bio..These are old bond amounts since he’s pled guilty to all charges and then one that was zero bond he got timed served. I don’t even know why they are still showing up that way..
I do all the time cent. This has gone on far too long for these families.
Thanks for the clarification on the above post. Oh is it to do with the divorce? Could it be about Haleigh. Thanks beautiful for the post.
msrm, I agree with you, you can’t trust any of them.
On the other blog, 2 people said that nurses can not write prescriptions. That is totally false. Nurses can have prescriptive authority and APN nurses can prescribe meds. Just wanted to clear that up. (I think you all were talking maybe about someone hiding Haleigh and a nurse being in the family).
If that is happening, I wouldn’t bet that it is a family member or a friend that would be writing scripts. I would think that Haleigh would be under a different name and going to an urgent care of something to that effect. When you go to the Dr., they don’t demand proof of your birth certificate, etc. So, in my opinion, Haleigh could very easily be getting some care from a GP or a NP somewhere without any problem at all.
JenM- I am an RN and we cannot write prescriptions- Nurse Practioners can but they are limited in what they can write!

the next date for the divorce is the 29th. If he’s not contesting anything he doesn’t even need to be at the proceedings.
Please let this be about Haleigh..
vaquera- that does sound like too early for the divorce but too early for his sentencing too.
I’m with you! Let it be about Haleigh!
Hi jen
Alex L…that is what I said. NP or a APN…
I know that an RN without any further credentials can’t write a script, but others should know that a NP (Nurse Practitioner) is an RN too. You can’t be a NP without the RN (nurse) license.
When it was written on the other blog, it was ‘black and white’ and clumped all nurses together as a Nurse who can’t write scripts. So, it should be clarified. Therefore if the CS clan knows a Nurse or has a Nurse in the family, it is very possible that they could get scripts written if the Nurse has NP credentials.
In my experience, we never would have transported an inmate for a divorce proceding. The attorneys would handle everything, paper work filed without being present. I don’t recall a civil action, such as this, ever requiring the transport of an inmate incarcerated on a feloy criminal charge.
Hi Bio.
Also, NP’s have different authorities in different states. What’s allowed in Florida is different than what is allowed in say Michigan.
I just thought it was important to clarify for those who beleive that Haleigh is alive and well and being taken care of. We don’t know if she is alive or dead and there is no evidence, no body, no persons of interest and no suspects. I sure hope she is alive and well.
One of my best friends had to get a divorce from her husband while he was locked up on a felony. He never was transported to court. She had to go though. They took his statements, etc., but granted the divorce to her. She said (and I don’t know if this is really fact) that the court said because he was in jail on a felony and looking at serving time for awhile, that it was reason to grant the divorce, period.
That was not in Fla. though, but not sure if that matters or not.
Jen, where I live NP can not write scripts. For narcotics but not sure in Flordia. Stilllucy do you have some experience with the judicial field?
JenM- I understood that the family member was an LPN, not someone who could write priscriptions but if they worked in an office with samples, I could see that occuring!
In CA even the NPs & PAs (Physician Assistants) are limited in what they can prescribe. Though on the military bases here they can both prescribe as long as its filled at the base.
With all the druggies involved in this case I wouldn’t prescribe them an aspirin!
Now in CA when you go to the hospital or doctor’s office you must show a picture ID along with your insurance card. Even when you are paying cash they want a picture ID. This started November of last year! It’s a hassle!
Bio: Former LE supervisor and presently working with APS & CPS. And do I have the migraines to prove it! LOL
Alex, lol, (with all the druggies involved in this case I wouldn’t prescribe them an aspirin!)
Heck, I wouldn’t even give them an aspirin out of my medicine cabinet, for fear they would sell it to someone claiming it was a narcotic and it traced back to me.
Maybe they have a family member or friend that works for a drug company and is a rep who gets free samples? Don’t know.
Does anyone know what the medicine is that Haleigh takes?
Also, there are a lot of ‘good intention’ people who believe that children don’t need meds and that the Lord can heal them, etc. I mean forget giving them blood when they are bleeding to death or chemo when they will die without it. There are those people out there, so maybe someone like that has her???
As far as I know Haleigh wasn’t taking any meds at all at the time she went missing.
JenM: From what I’ve heard, HaLeigh was using inhalers and had a pulmo aid machine for breathng issues. Although, I don’t believe she used it for preventative, just as a prn. There was also talk that she would need hormones or steriods in the future for growth due to her condition.
That’s all that I remember.
MSRM, what is your doctorate in? Just curious. I know when I was in school, the blogs were my only connection to the outside world. I was stuck at the computer studying all the time.
Anyway, I am getting off the blog for the night. Have a great (calm) discussion, k.
(M2C, you are the voice of reason!)
JenM- I never heard what it was but that it was an inhaler! There are many types of those! and some are rather expensive so again onless they had money or samples they would have to use her insurance card to get it!
Vaq. thanks, I heard that too. Still L., I’ve known people to use others inhalers when they needed them. I think some people think they are all the same, but they arent. So, maybe there is a family member who has a child who is on breathing treatments and inhalers and they will just share what they have with Haleigh and try and get extra’s???? LOL, hormones and steroids can probably be bought online!!!
Nite all.
GoodniJenM!
brazil, chili, peru..a child could receive medical care no questions asked.
Anything is possible, I guess.

Did anyone ever find out about Tommy’s move to Putnam County Jail? Could they be taking a deposition for one of the others’ cases like Misty or Ronald? Would they even transport him for that? My mind is spinning with so many possibilities. I hope it has something to do with the truth about Haleigh.

mexican illegals have gotten into the usa by the millions without a passport, so to get from the usa to mexico to south america would be a cake walk, especialy for an ex-LE like ms.

OJ- that seems like a lot of effort to expend to get an inhaler and then you have to get refills. Unless you went down there once and had them ship you refills.
I still question why she would be taken +’ junior left behind if it was some type of drug retaliation. So either stranger abduction or sexual assault abduction. I would wonder why Tommy or JO would sexual assault a child suddenly. I know that they may have been screwed up on drugs but they don’t have a history of it that we know of. I’m sure someone hear has checked this out. The other possibility is an accident. What type of accident? Accidental drug poisoning or purposefully drug poisoning? I can’t think of any other scenario.
I watched the Geraldo interview with Marie again today (the one where she thinks someone transported Haleigh to Georgia or Alabama). She makes me so suspicious of her and her involvement with those crazy statements. I just wonder if she has family in Georgia or Alabama. I know Misty and Tommy have lied continously and Ron has had some very suspicious behavior also, but Marie’s statements give me a very uneasy feeling.
Bio-Hazzard- Maybe we’ll find out tomorrow!

well, meds could be had online..the case blew up instead of blew over..the nappers went to plan B and got out of the state and maybe the country.
Bio- Do you know if they checked jr for drugs?
It could be they were both drugged so they would sleep but something went wrong with HaLeigh!
Jan,
Thank you so much for all you do for all of us and for Haleigh. Again, I apologize for my part in what happened last night and promise to email you next time if I feel I am being attacked.
.
Robin,
ITA re Marie. She is at the top of my list (with Chad) with Tommy and/or Joe & strangers close behind. The other video which had me highly suspicious of her is the video where she is being interviewed, and during the interview, the LE come along and take Chad into custody and she is asked about whether or not that worries her. I thought she looked VERY worried.
Re the inhaler, where I live you don’t need a prescription to get an asthma inhaler….just buy it over the counter. Do you actually need one in Fla?
me- What did they take Chad into custody for ?
chad was arrested on camera?
Me- you do in CA, maybe you don’t in Florida!

Robin: what does ITA stand for and who is Chad?
Bio- Wow! after the caylee case, you would think they would check for drugs in children!
Well hopefully we will learn something tomorrow in regards to Tommy!
Goodnight all!
chad is cs’s brother/fiancee..no joke.
what a world what a world
Bio-hazzard–Chad Griffis, fiance to Crystal Sheffield and I believe stepson to Marie Griffis. I am totally ignorant to what ITA stands for. I have seen it often but for the life of me don’t know what it stands for.
I Totally Agree
Thanks vaquera.

I am curious about Tommy C. If this was all a set-up and he knows nothing of what happened to HaLeigh, but he stands to lose his Family just to see if they can get Misty to talk, then I would say LE has a problem on their hands.
Haleigh has to see an Endoctrinologist according to Ron, she missed 12 Drs appointments with CS alone, she is subject to infections and that is why she missed so much School,so if somebody has her,its somebody that knows her medical condition.
Is the tape between Ron and Teresa still available, in there Teresa mentions a couple of curious things, she asks Ron, do you think she will talk ( can take that more ways than one ), I forget the exact wording next, but they talk of someone moving state to state,I believe someone has HaLeigh and she is being moved around, I don’t think it was mean’t to go this far, but whoever took her can’t get her back now, because they are the next to face charges..KP also stated she is alive growing and well fed, something along that line.
Yes I remember that from the people involved & there families. Thanks the info . maybe tomorrow we will learn more. Nite fellow bloggers
PCSO is happier than chit these cases are distracting from their botching of the search for haleigh!
They BUNGLED the case from the beginning, so to save face they entrap misty! Set her up like a bowling pin but shes not rolling over like the others..she will be found NOT GUILTY because she was ensnared, set up, framed by an inept CYA barney fife of a law enforcement agency that hires the likes of MS!

They were just taking him for questioning. It was happening in the background while Marie was being iv’ed. If anyone wants it, I’ll see if I can find the link to the video.

LOL! Do you live locally? I am guessing we will only get snippets on tv, not full coverage???
I’m curious about Tommy being in Putnam County again. If he gets fresh charges will that show up on the Sherrif’s office website?
Snippets on tv and transcripts for review here by all of us who care to weigh in.
August is looking good this summer.
I’m interested in her defense and the witnesses she will call IF she goes to trial, which I think she will.
I think she’ll be guilty on 5 of the 8 charges. Not sure where Vegas will have it.
What do you guys think? On Kyron Horman, 7 yr old missing out of Portland OR. This is a close up of the tv with a reflection of a man in it. Then there is a picture of a boy who looks like Kyron in a car with a person. The driver and the reflection look similar, do you think this is Kyron in the car and is this the same person hiding behind the book case.

OJ’s glove said,in June 24th, 2010 at 1:23 am yes it did..thank you me.
I know your word is good as gold..
————————
Thx OJ. I just watched it again. Saying they took him into custody is probably not right. He’s probably going voluntarily (and probably would have had the right to refuse to go) with the 2 cops, but he was being taken in for questioning as I understand it.
jaba,
I wish we had the background phone calls from LE in that matter.
I think unless she’s offered a pretty good deal she will go to trial too. If she beats the big charge (the final purchase from the cop in the car) she might not do much time at all. I wonder why Ron has a separate trial? Where I live they would be tried together unless you could establish a good reason as to why they shouldn’t be.
ron will plead, he has no chance at trial..
now misty..thats a horse of a different color.
She was ENTRAPPED and SET UP and FRAMED and
BAMBOOZLED by an INEPT, MORONIC, INCOMPETENT
so called law enforcement agency that employs the likes of MS!
LE wants misty DEAD!!!
They want her HANGING in her cell to distract from their bungling of the haleigh investigation! LE then can say “OPPS our suspect is dead..case CLOSED!! move along nothing to see here!”
OJ’s,
I think PCSO is hoping just the fact she’s locked up will satisfy the public and let them keep their jobs without the need to solve Haleigh’s case. And it seems many people are happy enough with the outcome. Very sad. I do hope they let new LE in so Haleigh can be found because I think PCSO has proved themselves incapable of solving it. Or they’ve been outwitted by Misty for 18 months, which I find near impossible to believe, and if they have been, it sure doesn’t make them look any more clever.
Is a unanimous verdict required in Fla? If so, I think she has to be in with a reasonable chance at trial. I do hope she has somewhere good and safe to go when she gets out.
my place
g’nite me..time to hit the hay
That would be something to witness, if the LE can be bamboozled by a then 16 yr old, with grade 5,I would turn in my badge,I can’t even comprehend that, but she is pretty quick, and can keep her focus, we seen this in the phone call, when she is talking to her Dad, and he is telling her about the letter, and he is going on and on,and out of no where, she say’s, who is they? I think, the only thing Misty is guilty of, is not being home that night, and doesn’t want to say,or ever admit to, because it caused HaLeigh to be taken,I think she came in not long before Ron came home,went to check on the kids and noticed HaLeigh was gone and then the plan went in motion,if I remember correctly the first person she phoned then was her Mom.
Good nite OJ.
Just Curious,
I also think that scenario is very possible. So, who went in when she was out or sleeping?….aaarrrgh. I wish we knew.
Then again, it’s odd that no one has admitted they saw her out….so, I think there’s also a real chance she was asleep.
I also think she may have known earlier in the night that Haleigh was missing but was hoping she’d find her by the time Ron got home.
me,I thought she may be over at the Mondex party house, but since have changed my mind when nobody was coming forward,I think she was either with trusted friends like NayNay,or Tommy, Joe, etc. I would just like to know if she made that phone call to Ron at 8:30 asking if she could go babysitting,I am assuming for Tommy,and he said no,and that she couldn’t get HaLeigh to settle down,something is not right with this, there is talk of the LE being at Tommy’s at 2 in the morning, whether it is connected to HaLeigh missing, not sure, but I always wondered if Tommy was home then,I think Ron made the phone calls and its not 90 like we’ve been led to believe, its 20 according to TJ Hart, but I just thought that is because she was just with WBG and NayNay on a 3 day wknd, and she just asked him if she could go babysitting, and I think he is wiser than that, knowing that would be an excuse to go out,so he was likely phoning to see if she went or not, and if Teresa got there so fast, she may have been checking to see if she went out or not, I’m not sure if Tommy went over there, or if that was a little pay back to Misty for the things she done to him, but the phone records would be nice to see, like did Ron phone Teresa after 8:30, did Ron phone Tommy around 9-9:30, all these things would be of interest.I hope we will soon see if any of our theories are right, or did somebody totally different come in the house??
JustCurious,
Do you remember the source about her making that call at 8:30?….I remember hearing that ages ago, but don’t recall where it was from. It seems odd that she’d want to go babysit elsewhere if she was really tired.
I listened to the 911 call again the other day re whether or not LE were at Tommy’s before the call came in….it’s not as clear as I thought it was as the tape’s been edited. It’s not clear if they got to Tommy’s before or after they got the call about Haleigh imo.
With Tommy, I’m not sure if he’s just making stuff up to get favour with LE or whether he actually knows something. The longer this goes on the more I think he doesn’t know anything, but he and/or Joe and/or Timmy are still running a close second on my suspect list!
I’d like to see the phone records for all the people related to Haleigh, particularly the calls amongst the Sheffield/Griffis clan from the time they got the warrant until the time they arrived in Satsuma.
I also think there’s still a real chance it was a complete stranger….may have been watching the house and Haleigh for awhile. I’d really like to know where Chad Reynolds is.
The brother of the woman called the key to solving the Haleigh Cummings disappearance is back in the Putnam County Jail.
Hank �Tommy� Croslin Jr. has been held in the St. Johns County Jail in St. Augustine since he and four others were arrested on drug charges earlier this year. He was brought back to Putnam County on Wednesday night.
He pleaded no contest three weeks ago to trafficking in hydrocodone.
St. Johns County was holding Croslin at the request of Putnam Sheriff Jeff Hardy so he would not be with others jailed in the case held in custody in Palatka.
�Now that he has pleaded and is scheduled to be sentenced soon, it�s my decision that it�s appropriate to bring him back to this jail,� Hardy said.
Croslin is slated to be sentenced in Putnam County Circuit Court on July 6, said sheriff�s office spokesman Lt. Johnny Greenwood.

You need a prescription for inhalers in Florida, I am not aware of any state in the US where you can buy asthma over the counter.
Tommy Croslin has been brought back to Putnam to await his July 6th hearing. you can read this @ Palatka Daily News. Tommy and Ron are at the same jail now.
Primatene Mist is sold over the counter and it for Asthma. It comes in pill form and inhaler. It can be used by children as well as adults. It is kept behind the counter; not on the shelf.
Leaving for work, but thought about this last night…..
Has anyone theorized that maybe one of Haleigh’s teachers were involved? I mean, maybe they thought she was being abused and couldn’t stand seeing her live like this. Maybe they said something to someone like, ‘this little girl at school deserves so much better. I wish I could take her away and give her a better life’. AND then maybe someone made that possible. They knew where Haleigh lived.
Just a thought. Have a nice discussion today….
FIND HALEIGH!
LS: Bronchial dialators use to be available over the counter, not sure if they are anymore with all the issues these days. I can’t even purchase sudafed without an ID check here.
Someone had mentioned earlier, if you really would need an inhaler in Florida and the answer is HE77 yes! The humidity makes the air so heavy that if you have asthma, it’s very difficult to breath.
LOL, meant buy asthma inhalers over the counter
me,TJ Hart reprted the 8:30pm call as well as a few others including A.H. Everyone was up in arms due to the fact it was the first time we heard about an argument transpiring between Ron and Misty. I believe you can find that info in the Sept 21st 2009 article in the BNN archives. It would be in the headline brother says Misty was not home the night of Haleighs disappearance.
LadieSadie do you mean Albuterol asthma inhalers? Primatene is an asthma inhaler. It cost almost 20.00 over the counter.
lfj, yes, I was thinking of traditional asthma inhalers, things like Primatine Mist are only for mild occasional symptoms, not for daily use.
JenM I had never thought of that. I think it could happen. That would not be a stranger to Haleigh. It would be someone that Ron and maybe Misty would know. Possibility.
As Always Jan, you are spot on, I actually hardly blog anymore because of abuse and fights, makes it hard for those who are really wanting to contribute
LadieSadie, what do you make of the Sheriff deciding to bring Tommy back to the Putnam Jail to await his sentencing?
lfj, I think St. Johns County was tired of paying for his care when he has no charges in our county and since he has already plead out they said take him back, LOL!
Good morning y’all! It is so good to see all the posters that have been MIA, back.
The fight at 8:30p that night we heard about was over Misty watching the kids for Tommy and Chelsae.
It was their anniversary and they wanted to go out and celebrate.
Tommy’s wife’s name is Lindsy, and she was in classes that night, how would they have been going out to celebrate?
Me @ 1:12 & 1:14am- Thank You
I don’t think HaLeigh would have been using an otc inhaler but then I don’t know how minor her medical history of asthma is.
In CA, all otc ephedrine based medications reguire an ID and are put into database to make sure no one is purchasing more than is necessary. So a doctor’s order would be necessary to override it!
A lot of otc medications are dangerous, most are made for adults not children! Too many children are giving wrong dosages!
Has anyone heard for sure why Tommy was moved?
Alexandria, apparently Haleigh’s asthma was bad enough that she at times needed a nebulizer machine.
http://www.palatkadailynews.com/articles/2010/06/24/news/news01.txt
Hardy’s decision to bring him back since he has pleaded and will be sentenced soon
LS is more than likely right on with Tommy’s move. Since his cases have been satisfied, St John’s county would move him to the county that has existing charges. All correctional facilities do that. Creates more space for other inmates and saves that county the expense of holding an inmate.
Last I heard Ron was in general population, I’m sure that Tommy will be in protective custody @ Putnam County as well.
Personally, I think they brought him back so it would be easier for family to visit and they hope he will let something slip while talking to them
Tex, That could very well of been what the arguement was over. Tim and Chelsea wanted to go out for their anniversary and Ron told Misty no. Perhaps that was the real reason Chelsea was mad at Ron that Monday.
Becky lets hope you are right.
Putnam Daily News has the article. Sheriff Hardy said it was his decision to move Tommy back to Putnam since he has plead out and will be sentenced soon.
Lady you are correct Lindsy was at school that night. She must of had to use TC red truck that night to get to school, because, Chalsea and Tommy had borrowed her van.
Now we’ve heard two reasons for M not wanting to babysit that night. One is to help Tim and Chelsea and the other was supposedly that she was tired which is what she supposedly told TN when she asked her to watch Haleigh and Jr.
I don’t know why there’d be two stories about this. Why would M tell TN she’s tired when she’s got a much better reason -to help her brother and sis-in-law on their anniversary?
LadieSadie-! that’s what I thought I had heard early on. I do hope if she was taken by family and is hidden out, they had planned it well enough to have enough medication on hand. Stress can bring on attacks and her being taken from a familiar environment to ? would surely be a danger to her!
Did Tommy originally have charge(s) in St. John’s County?
Tex, you keep typing Tommy and Chelsea; instead of Timmy and Chelsea. LOL!!
So until Lindsy got home TC did not have a vehicle.
Sorry
I ment Timmy
Is it possible Tex that lyndsey rode with a friend to school that night and Tommy did have transportation?
Alex, Tommy had no charges in St. Johns; only Putnam.
It is possible, but, IMO I would think she would just take the truck.
I have also gave a little thought to the van and IMO if Timmy or Chelsea where involved they would of never reported the scratch that next moning to LE.
But Timmy was in the same auto accident that Hank Sr. was hospitalized for and was supposedly at home passed out from the medications given to him at the hospital, soooooo…..how would Timmy and Chelsea have gone out celebrating?
lfj- Then why was he in St.John’s in the first place?
m2c- unless Misty was truly tired, asking TN doesn’t make sense to me because she would also be babysitting Misty!
Someone was asking the other about Crystal making complaints to DCF on Ronald. I just found an article done April 27th, 2009. My interview with TJ Hart, by Simon Barrett. TJ states that there were a handful of open cases before Haleighs disappearance, due to crystal trying to regain custody of her children.
I forgot!
Good Morning everybody!
I would like to see Tommy & Ron in the same cell and be the correctional officer overseeing them!
Alexandria, Timmy was housed at the St. John’s Detention Center because Putnam’s was over crowded at the time of his arrest and the two counties are neighboring and will do that sometimes for each other.
AlexI believe it was reported that they wanted to keep all the players separate from one another, but in reality they only kept them separate from where Ron was.
Thank You- LadySadie & looking for Justice!
YVW, Alex. I would also like to see Ron and Tommy in the same cell with supervision.
Lady It is possible it was not that paticular night they needed Misty to babysit.JMO
oops the person doing the interview with TJ Hart was Stone ;not Simon. I guess I am just use to it being Simon with the one on ones with TJ.
On the babysitting – Right to both Alex and TM39. The babysitting thing is not clear to me (along with 99% of everything else! lol!)
lfj: I tried to find the BNN Sept 21 (or so) article where TJ mentions an 8:30 pm call between R and M but couldn’t find it. I was just wondering what TJ’s source on that was. I’ve never doubted TJ, of course, but he would often explain that he was reporting what someone said so we have to decide if we want to believe that someone.
I was under a NP for a year in SC an she could write just about anything.She wrote for my narcotic pain meds,untill i went to another place where i could get the epadurals,when needed,a spinal stimulator broke off in my back after trying it,so i wouldnt have to take med.Had to have another surgery to remove the dang thing.NP couldnt do the epadurals .
.A inhaler is easy to get.The machine type,as well as the spray type.Under a NP. Hospital dr can write for them an the meds,an saline.My son used the machine the first 3 yrs of his life,then went on the inhaler pocket size.(Abutrol) i had loads of the other meds for the machine left over.Which i donated to a clinic.He was a month,an week early breached.An his lungs had problems,from not fully developing at birth/Astma.However hes fine now,just many out door allerjies
We dont know that the Sheffield/Griffs didnt already have a machine at their home for the weekends when they kept the child,if she wasnt on just the abutarol inhaler.Getting all of this stuff.Would not signal anyone that it was being got for a missing child.Because Millions use these products.If someones caring for this child some where.If she wasnt placed in the river.Buy somone now in jail.
I thought it was said my TN that some thing of importance was missing from the trailor.Was it one of HaLiegh health products?? No link,just memory.Lol some times i do get it wrong.But i remember this early on.DiD LE ever say this,as they have said so little,an all hasnt been up to Par(truthful)Or did they deny it,not wanting anyone to know they were looking for the machine/meds.Brings me to the (so called fake search) wasnt a inhaler there,ill have to go back an look seems i remember it was,a broken one,alone with glove/map/suit case/keys/other items.So strange
I would be willing for a trip there.I already am friendly with Hank,an Lisa by way of phone,not as often sence being sick.But the would know my voice,an know me from what i told them.
I was born in Sanford,an need to make a run for a copy of some paper work from a place there.It wold be a nice trip for me,an i soooo need a vacation,as ive been layed up sick to long.But we all live so far apart for those of us who would like to meet up an go to the hearings,or just look the place over.God forbid LOL we none dont want to be called Joy Wray!!!! lol like in Caylees case.
Do all of you really think Gators got hold of HaLiegh.My lord how awful would that truly be,an would deserve a stiff punishment if someone did that to her/maybe even the DP if she was alive when it was done.!!Gators Ughh We have loads of them.Had one when i was young that use to bump the boat every time we rode through a (slue as i call it)lol a smaller spot untill it opens to the big river.Where we fished.Sad to say he lost his life one morning,an we ate his tail.Gator tails not bad.But be sure an dont skin it near your home.Lo, the smell lingers forever it seems.An as a teens we water skied.An gators sunned on the bank.No one was ever attacked.
We know a gator can smell a dog out from miles away.Its like steak to them.I think that why he kept bumping the boat we carried our dog with us.Now i live at the beach/not in the country anymore.But i visit it when i feel well..An we do see Gators,water Moc,an rattle snakes here at the beach to..
When we had the nice snow this past winter,which is rare.We found one rattle snake frosen coiled,on the dirt road leading behind my place.Where they work on those monster trucks,just big dirt pile to drive over with those large truckss so the can make sure the run good,an my friens has a shop to work on them fromgators here. Gators they stay out the way,an we dont didturb them.,but i never hear of attacks.
Haliegh,an Jr would have got a kick out of seeing the trucks operate.I would have loved to have those two..An if Misty didnt harm HaLiegh i would take her in a min,if she was allowed to transfer here.My teen son,2 grand children 1 a teen also they are straight,an would do/would have done her good to be around children like that,good clean fun!! Along with all there friends.Theres many school opertunties,as well as adult ed here for Mistys age.
Probably to late now.AS shes facing much time.An we dont know if she was involed with HaLigh going missing.How ever i my self doupt she harmed the child.Of course i could be wrong..I dont think she would hurt a fly,just talked big to Rons exgirl friend.
I told her ma/an pa they were welcome to come here an stay with me,an look for work,if hes able.But they have to pay those fines before leaving the state,an are not going to leave there children in this fix,untill its found out where the will be housed after trial.An most likly they will go to Mass to where Timmys at.I dont know if they will ever come,but i like the from speaking to them,an they know that they are welcome.I would do the same for anyone.Cant get in touch with TN,Mrs Sykes or i too would help them in any way,as well as the other side.Unlees i got that decernment they were off when talking to them.You all know the gut feeling you get when somethings way off.
The Loss of HaLiegh,an not knowing has to cause great pain,in the hearts of those who loved her.As everyone here i just want her found,an the truth what ever it is.Its been way to long,an this case hasnt been solved,or somone would have been charged with the crime already.An seem sahdyness go from the le,all the way down the chain from what im reading,an hearing.God Bless the children.We may never know,an always be gussing about what happened to Precious HaLiegh!!! Any typos please over look
Tex, you stated the other day that you believed that Crystal did love her children and wanted them back and may have went about it the wrong way, but maybe she did try doing it the right way and made no progress therefore feeling she was left with only this option. Lord I hope so. jmo
It was said JS moved to Kentucky,but i have also heard he may have moved to NC
m2c, I will go and try to find it for you. BRB
One of the reasons I’ve wondered about M supposedly not wanting to babysit that night is because I’ve thought about this possibility: Several days before, M and R have a fight, she leaves and goes binging. What if someone took advantage of her being mad at R and being tired of babysitting another woman’s kids, and wanting a child of her own and suggested a “joke” or a real abduction (but by family or friend) and they planned it? Then M gets back with R but has no way to call off what’s going to happen Monday night and she just doesn’t want to be there when it does or she was supposed to NOT be there?
I know it’s off the wall but so are a lot of other theories (of my own as well as others’! lol!)
lfj, Yes I truelly believe CS loves her children.
Actually nothing seems off the wall in this case anymore, LOL. Just wish we could find out what happened to precious Haleigh.
tm39, I believe CS loves her children also, but just has no clue how to be a mother, she didn’t exactly have a sterling example in her own.
Thank you, lfj. I really appreciate it.
To try to return the favor, I just found a very old article (a couple of days after Haleigh disappeared) that supports your 8:40 am post about DCF looking in to things at R’s before the abduction. LE states they had not been called to the home but DCF had been looking in to things. I imagine that would be accusations on the part of CS OR even the school if the school had reported that Haleigh was missing too much.
“There have been some investigations done through the department of children and family,” Putnam County Captain Steve Rose told FOX News on Wednesday. He didn’t elaborate
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,491008,00.html
IMO the crime seems to be to perfect to have been committed by the Croslins. IMO they are not the sharpest tools in the shed and would not of been so throughly in their cover up and staging to have fooled LE. IMO someone that has personal knowledge of a criminal investigation and procedures just might be able to pull it off and leave everyone in confusion for over 16 1/month. JMO
I agree lady.
gotta run TTYL
First day of Firework sales.
m2c it is Sept 09/09 that TJ reported the fight on the phone. Reporters Notes.
TexasMonmmy i agree.This could have been well planned out.An i posted the other day.That someone would know what,an what not to leaveas evidence if they worked in LE before/or then.Because these few are the perfect suspects TC Mc even Ron.So if they wanted her,knew Ron was on the night shift.Hank said he had went back on nights only that week..
HaLiegh would also go quietly with someone she knew.
TC had children of his own.Had been in an out of the home,around the children.Nothing had happened.All know hes a theif,by trade.An he could have went in to get the gun.But he would have to be awful stoned i believe to mees with one of Ron children.Now Joe on the other hand wasnt known well by the children he to has as it seems a gun fetish.Also known to famils as someone who Raped Misty she said molest,an she also claim about her brother.But in her letter to Chelsea,she said Rape.So he came to visit,an Haliegh disappeared.He is said to be mean/crazy by family when hesx stoned.TC was said by Lindsey to be mean when stoned.But TC was around the child all the time.What would cause him to flip an do something to her?? Dont know if i buy all of this.But i will loke at each,an every one.
iF I WAS A
m2c, after reading the 09/09 article again made me aware that I missed what was written. Right before the transcript of dispatch, I realized it said that Misty told dispatch that Haleigh had been seen in the residence between 2 and 2:30pm.
very late response to JenM, my PhD is in Counselor Education and Supervision
Is this why Greenwood stated that they had been working this case since approx 2:13am on the 10th of Feb?

iF I HAD BEEN A JUDGE I WOULDNT HAVE ALLOWED cs to keep her baby girl,much less take JR home with her.Her bull didnt jut star when HaLiegh went missing.It had been going on for yrs.I told my family.when she got that boy back.To watch she would use again when she got comfy after getting him back.She did.All that mees at the HBC was a party to me,an gain for money.Why did she deserve it.
Jan 57 both Ron and Crystal were drug users. Neither of these two should of had custody. That does not mean that they did not love their children though.
I remember Teresa Neves saying that Ron had only been on the night shift for about four weeks. That Ron worked 10 hour shifts. That would corroborate PDMs standard hours of operation, but on the night Haleigh disappeared per Ronald and his attorney Ron only worked an 8 hour shift 5pm to 3am.

Good morning everyone! I will be back and forth…in and out through out the day, wish I could hang out like I used to and chat with all of you…still unpackin, and it’s a mess. I thought I packed an organized move, but alas, I am constantly looking for something that I just had in my hand a few minutes ago. I’m sure that most of you know exactly what I mean! One of these days I promise to sit and catch up with my blogging! You all have some very interesting thoughts and thearies. Again, it’s good to be able to stop in and say hi to everyone! I am, like everyone else, so confused about the events of the river search. I just don’t understand why nothing panned out. I guess OJ may be right about the bungled investigation. I still can’t buy into misty not knowing anything, but it’s starting to look that way… I guess I’ll keep praying that someone has her and are caring for her somewhere. It’s so damn sad. bbl
ong i didnt mean for that to post above yet. I hit the button by acc.An away it went.i hadnt proof read,or finished,or even decided if i wanted to word it like that,an didnt get to finish,as i also was going to say.If rehab,an counseling was given,an shes watched.She may wind up making a good mother.we will see God knows they both had issues as parents one got caught,an one didnt.just unlucky,an on lucky i guess.
Jan I would love to hear what you think happend to HaLiegh,an who you have a theory about.I never have heard you speak of it.Do you think shes may be alive??
So tommy got moved from St Johns to Putnam. July 6th hearing
Tommy got moved from St. John’s to Putnam? They don’t want any chance that we will hear any of his phone conversations? That’s my first reaction
.
So good morning, all! I hope I have time to read and catch up. Tommy moved to Putnam is news. Finally, news!!
Jan57 I am not disagreeing with you that Crystal was not a proper mother. I was on a sight yesterday where Crystal was doing an interview explaining why she no longer had KP as her attorney. There were pics of Haleigh while she was with MG and CS and yes Haleigh looked very happy. A pic is worth a thousand words, but as we have seen the video and pics of Casey and Caylee you would have never thought Casey was drugging Caylee and then murdered her own daughter. A pic only shows at that moment. My point is that both Ron and Crystal were using before and after Haleigh disappeared. jmo
I wonder why they moved tommy so early.
misty says she was raped by JO in a letter full of falsehoods, imo.
WhyLie, I agree with you that if this has anything to do with the drug theory Kristina Prevatt may have knowledge or involvement. Joe Pytko arrested 6/18/09 released 7/30/09. Rumor went through Satsuma. Kristina arrested 7/4/2009 released 7/5/09 and on 8/11/09 Kristina arrested again and not released until 10/16/09. Tommy Croslin arrested around the 15th of Sept and released the 24th of Sept. During this time we have two different accounts that both state Haleigh OD. The pond drained on the 21st of Sept. Kristinas 2 letters released from behind bars talking about the allegations that her car was used to carry Haleigh to the dump site and disposed of by WBG.jmo
lfJ, 5 pm to 3 am is ten hours, though; did Ron/his attorney state that it was only an 8 hr shift within those hours? Although it has been said that he did some overtime because of the barge delivery. Hmmm…
Jan 57,I agree with your last post. CS needs alot of prayers for her to over come her addiction. We know by many here it can be done.
lfJ, Two different accounts of HaLeigh OD? I know the one, in Kristina “Nay Nay” Prevatt’s letter to boyfriend Donnie Spells; what is the other one?
Sorry people seems in the typo queen now for a few days.LOL im going to hunt my glasses,which i lost.An clean my puter keys.Maybe one of those will help me.LOL BBL love all the different thoughts,an that everyones her for HaLiegh,an truth.An all those children in putnam,in the families.Keep on pushing untill anwsers come.or LE comes out of hiding to speak the truth to us.
Im a bit harsh on sorry moms.I am use to men doing things wrong/some have been dead beat for yrs.But mothers are suppose to be nurtures.Loving,an putting their children first.
Its getting worse with young mothers now days.An i cant tolorate it!!! I had my daughter young,an loved,an raised her.My son at a later age.Both their dads died/my husbands.An i raised them on my own.So it urks me to see a woman,any woman with family support do such sorry jobs!!!
I know the rough life,an the decent life.hard time an good,an i always managed.This sorry bunch now days.Either arnt being taught,or their sorry Butts dont care.Its all about them,an poo on the children.Grrr it just cuts me to the core.SORRY I NEED A BREAK LOL
The pastor said it was only 8 hours per Ron. I made an oops. I meant to type 10 hours not 8. I guess I was thinking about what the Pastor had said.
LFJ, good to see you! I personally think they need to drain some more ponds…if it’s not too late. It should have been done months ago. What are the police afraid of finding? Just like waiting two or three weeks before they finally came back to the trailer to take the door for testing. It makes no sense to me. why wait?
Totally understandable Jan57. Gods Speed
I wonder now that Tommy is back in Putnam County Jail, waiting for the July 6th sentencing… does he really expect to only get 3 years!
He should get no less than what Ron’s cousin Hope got – 15 years!
Do you think he will run into Ron while there?
http://www.palatkadailynews.com/articles/2010/06/24/news/news01.txt
GREAT TOO SEE YOU METHINKS!! I agree they need to drain more ponds, but there are so many and costs I am sure is astronomical. Good question about the door also. They came and took the door the same day Ron and Misty got married and they were also doing a search down hwy 17.
I also wonder if they bothered to check that human bone they claimed was native american to see if it was that guy that disappeared around the time Haleigh disappeared. anybody know?
3 out of 5 and one soon to plead guilty on the d/c’s, I don’t know if that would be considered bungled on the d/c’s, but 4 convictions plus mistys looks like they will be batting a 1000.
Wish things had gone that way on Haleighs case, but it aint over yet, imo.
When misty is fund guilty I’m sure some will say the trial wasn’t fair. I’m glad we’ll get to see and hear trial info. Maybe mistys trial will also bring out info on Haleigh or maybe break the case. Who knows? We can only hope.
Tanya and methinks, Yes, so interesting that Tommy has been moved to Putnam. Maybe they expect too much activity over the 4th of July weekend and wanted to get it out of the way? I assume that he is still in protective custody, not general population. Ron is in gen pop now, right? Wow, what if Tommy is free to mix it up with Ron. Probably not, though.
methinks, I believe the experts were able to tell that it was too old a bone to be anyone who could have been alive these days.
Jaba @ 10:33 you said, ” Maybe mistys trial will also bring out info on Haleigh or maybe break the case. Who knows? We can only hope.”
—
I hope so too. Otherwise I’m afraid that’s going to be the end of it. End of the investigation. End of ever finding out what happened to Haleigh. IMO the only purpose in the drug sting was to get those people in a position to squeeze info from them. And so far it seems it hasn’t worked. So LE’s out of luck (and so is Haleigh) if nothing comes of this.
Cate it came out in Satsuma about mid July. There were some women talking and they said that LE had found Haleighs body and they had done some preliminary test and it showed she od. They went on to say that tox screens were sent out and would be back in 6 weeks this way they could establish if it were accidental ot intentional. They said Haleigh was first put inthe dumpster and then removed and placed elsewhere and that LE was looking at Ron and Misty as suspects. LE did come out and denounce the rumor that they had found Haleighs body, but this rumor seemed to have caused a dominoe effect of mayhem between Ron,Misty and the Croslins. This all started on August 6th2009 all the way through Oct that led to Ron and Misty divorcing. Three months later R,M and TC were caught and arrested for drug trafficking. I think LE put that rumor out to cause a rift and were successful if that was the case.jmo
jaba, 3 out of 5, do you mean hope, doona and tommy?
Yes, it will be good that Misty is going to trial just so that info can be brought out.
Mayby Misty will talk after sentencing, if she hasn’t yet. She’s young and might still have that “it can’t happen to me” attitude.
.)
(I wish I could remember who had this good point the other day but I can’t. It wasn’t me, that I know
LFJ, That door thing has bothered me from day one. It seems to me that would have been done the night she disappeared, considering that was the door she was alledgedly taken through. It was probably covered in evidence…finger prints, dna etc…
you are so right Methinks. I sure have missed you.
Agreed, M2c…
Maybe after all 5 are wrapped up in a bow, a cold case group will start over and see what can be found about Haleigh.
M2c, Hello my friend! good to see you! Your probably right about the bone, yet judging from the investigation so far, I just had to ask.
Jaba I pray that will be the case.
LFJ< I have missed you all as well!
Cate, You have those two different accounts with one common denominator Overdose and then you have Chelsea Croslin on NG with GGSykes and G.Hollar stating that she knew for a fact there were loose pills lying ariund the home. That is three times we have heard Haleigh could have OD.jmo
ooops- around
Cate,
Yep, all three follwed by ron who will be ‘walking like an egyptian’ to his new home, then misty.
It will be juicy, imo.
She still has a ton of time to plead and just might. It depends on what her attorney can put forth with respect to entrapment.
None of the others put that forth as evidence, so, it will be interesting to see misty TRY it. Who knows, it may work. Imo, I don’t think so, but I’m not going to be deciding the case one way or another like the rest of us here.
Tobias,The pastor said ron told him,he went to work,came home 8 hours later and his child was gone?
Goodmorning CathyJo!!
Hello cathyjo! good to see/read your smilin’ happy face again! Hope all is well with you.
Good Morning Guys!!!
Good to see yalls fingers too,rofl
Hello tobias, if your here… I’ve missed your words of wisdom…. Lately, my routine has been, lurk, unpack, lurk, unpack etc!
Methinks,I aint smiling today,lemme tell ya,almost died from heat exhaustion yesterday,soooooooooooooo HOT here!!!!!
I think it is wishful thinking that misty will ever talk truth. She has had so many opportunities and yet she keeps playing games. The reason may be two words…: death penalty.
silly me,not literally almost died but picked my burying clothes out,lol
IMO Misty won’t talk,because she dunno!
Jaba and lfJ, thanks for those clarifications re the overdoes theories. Got it!
Heya Looking,didn’t see ya there! lol
Cathy jo, Keep pouring down the water sista! Heat exhaustion is nothing to joke about! I’ve been there and I live in minnesota!
CathyJo or methinks, I was lurking yesterday and I saw where Me had posted about finances being put on hold and identity theft. iirc KPs computer got hacked into and someone had gotten into her e-mail and finances. Do you remember when that occured?
lord no Looking,i hadn’t heard,i will go see tho,brb
Cathyjo, you may be right about misty not knowing…I’m sarting to think that way as well. Part of me still thinks she may be protecting someone…like her sneaky exhusband.
Or MAYBE MISTY HAS TALKED THE TRUTH, perhaps even from the very beginning, but she is not saying what LE wants her to say. Just an idea.
LFJ, I hadn’t heard that… I’m so far behind on all the new info.
I don’t see anything Looking,hmmm
Cate, that is a definate possability! They need a scapegoat (as OJ would say) and who better than misty?
Misty knows more than she has said, imo.
Ron also knows something he aint tellin’. Imo but I still think he was at work the whole time. Who knows? They’ll have plenty of time to think about it for the next 20 years or so.
Hopefully they will just come clean and help figure out what happened.
Oh Methinks,I’d bet all i own on that,which btw aint much but its still mine,lol
Three possibilities for Misty’s Truth/Inconsistencies/Lies:
1. She has lied from the beginning and continues to lie.
2. She told the truth from the beginning but it was not what “others” (Ron, LE, ?) want to hear hence the inconsistencies and stories.
3. She does not know anything/much about what happened to HaLeigh.
That just rang a bell looking,
Wasn’t it the child support check made by an anonymous person from Texas? they held it to check for id theft?????????
MeThinks,you just got back,lol so I’d better tell you where I stand now?
IMVHO Ron was the man in black?? jmo tho!
Misty doesn’t know!
methinks, I don’t envy you! I “moved house” (as the British say) over twenty times and I am tired of it and not doing it again! We still aren’t recovered from our last one over five years ago.
eaxctly methinks,when you tell the truth for almost 2 yrs and it still doesn’t help,my goodness,I guess you’d do better to lie! But she’s protecting Ron,jmvho and only my vho
Yes CathyJo. I just found an article after googling and it was in June. They use the term allegedly, but when I clicked to read the whole article it had been removed. This incidence did occur in June.
oh ok,Looking….Thanks!!!!! LoL
RC is the lowest form of a parent,as is CS too imho!
mISTY was LESS than three feet from Haleigh that night.
The 911 call was BOGUS and STAGED, imo.
All of the TRAFFICKERS will be JAILED per Florida law, imo. 3 of 5 so far. tc may get less than the others.
To me, the traffickers BUNGLED their dealin by being stupid and carelss, like many other aspects of their lives.
I wonder if the person existed Looking,b/c I’m sure we all heard”" who paid it but can;t prove it,ya know!
Jaba,the thing is someone was even closer to Haleigh,than she was! jmo
Juicy stuff today!
Tommy in Putnam County jail now; is there a way to tell whether he is in pc or genpop?
I want to get this right, the check that was supposed to payoff Crystal’s child support debt, did it go through or not? Does Crystal still owe the money or not?
someone brave enough to turn on a light,who knew exactly where the beds were,and how far apart they all were?
and more importantly,had a key?
Cate,i believe it was paid!
Hello everyone just now got caught up with the posts from last night. Why did they move Tommy?
Strange. Maybe so his parents could visit, since they cant leave the county.Going to look at the dockets bbl jmo
not by her,but it was paid!
Jaba I agree with you 11:20am post
someone who knew Misty would not wake up!jmo
CathyJo, great thought! How do we know that Crystal’s child support debt was actually paid and not just “erased?” Wow.
True too Jaba,but if the one who did it to Haleigh had been caught,only they’d be in jail now,I don’t buy PCSO story one bit!
there would have been no need for a sting!
This started out about Haleigh,but its come to a drug case ONLY!
CathyJo the checks did exist. I saw them posted on the A.H. site. You could read where they were from( Texas) but blocked the name on the checks for personal protection.
Cate,
Are you British?
If so, I’d like to know so I can ‘read’ your comments with the proper ‘accent’.
Although, if Crystal’s child support debt was “erased” and not actually paid, would CFS/CPS/DCF have had to “cooperate” with the erasure? Or does it become a criminal matter after so much debt accrues and at that point child services defers to LE?
Cate, yes…moving is a pain in the arse!
exactly right Cate!
Cate,lol remember,I am all eyes and ears and gab,Others are better for legalities!lol
Cate the checks went through. Crystal does not owe the arrearage any longer. Ron did receive the 12,000.
Yes Looking,I know,ty
what I meant tho is we know CS never paid a dime of it,lol jmo
Such caring people,they oughta pay it for others whose parents won’t too! lol
MeThinks,I hate moving,my paws are staying planted to this floor! lol
yep CathyJo CS never paid a dime of the arrerage.
right,I heard ron got the 12,ooo as he should,I have no problem with that if i even count,lol I think he bought the purple car with it????? anyone know?????? for sure!
lfJ, If the checks were posted on AH site, I cannot be sure of their authenticity. I am not saying that AH “created” them but I am saying that it is quite possible that AH is (one of ) LE’s mouthpieces for disinformation.
I am not calling PCSO or AH liars, I am just saying that it is possible.
right and thats the whole point of Child Support imo Looking,lol
too pay for what is yours if you don’t raise them.sheeesh!
jaba, I am not British. A good friend of mine is living in Wales and that’s where I learn these phrases. Sure do like the image of you and Ron walkin’ Egyptian and singin’ like the Beatles, though!
Well,I’ll do it for you Cte,everybody has lied in this case,lol jmo
Hi, methinks! Good to see you again.
You said, at 11:01 am “I think it is wishful thinking that misty will ever talk truth. She has had so many opportunities and yet she keeps playing games. The reason may be two words…: death penalty.”
—
As I’ve said before I think the drug sting was to sqeeze the truth out of these people and there is no point in trying to do that if LE is not willing to offer a good enough deal for the truth. What happened to Haleigh has got to be more important than drug offenses. For example, with her current charges M’s looking at a max of what? 75 or 100 years? Well a smart cop and state attorney would say, tell us what happened to Haleigh, even if you killed her, it would be manslaughter 10 years, we’ll deal the drugs down to 15 (or 25) so all you’re looking at is 25 years. Otherwise we’re going to go for the full 75 – 100 on the drug charges. (That’s just an example and same could be applied to Tommy and R).
LE has got to make it worthwhile for someone to tell the truth. Otherwise this is a totally useless exercise as far as Haleigh is concerned.
Thanks for doing the dirty work for me CathyJo! You’re the best.
I forgot who asked about TJ talking about the 8:30 call to Misty..I posted these yesterday
Haleigh’s father Ronald Cummings had a fight with then babysitter -now bride Misty Croslin-Cummings at about 8:30 the night the child was abducted. That fight took place over the phone while Cummings was at his job at PDM near Palataka, FL.
#
Ronald’s work hours that night were 4pm to 3am. Law officers and officials at PDM both state that Ronald was present and accounted for that night. Telephone records and cell phone pings lend strong support to those statements by law enforcement and PDM.
http://www.thesky973.com/pages/5144515.php?
http://www.bloggernews.net/122108
(Per TJ)
Later in the conversation, I asked Miller to verify Ronald Cumming’s timeline. Miller stated that Ronald told him and Orlando attorney Mark Nejame that he did have an argument with Misty on the telephone while he was at work at PDM. I asked Miller if Ron worked from about 4pm to 3am and he responded that Ron’s time card is verified and that he had punched in and out as usual.
Miller also stated that Ron’s timeline is also supported by the fact that he was seen on a convenience store surveillance video just after 3am buying beer, cigarettes and peanuts.
http://www.bloggernews.net/122122
EXACTLY M2,BINGO GIRL!
they’re between a rock and a hard place? Not for Haleigh,for drugs! jmo
The drug cases are criminal acts as well.
I don’t think we’d have what we have to go on, without what they have said while behind bars. Does that solve the case? No, not yet, maybe never, but they were dealin and LE got wind of it and stung them like they do all around the country. I doubt it was either of the 5′s first time selling drugs to another person.
Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time, imo.
We’ll see if there is a trial if anything improper was done to misty by le and 12 people in florida will decide and I’ll be fine with it.
I predict is misty loses, proponents will call for an appeal, yada, yada, yada…which we can follow as well should it be granted.
Anyone know when hopes next court date on her appeal is?
I have looked high and low for results on Tommy hearing Monday and have found nothing. I guess I am looking in the wrong place. If some kind soul has info on it would you pleae post it? Thank you:) Sorry I am not puter literate:(
imo M2,Theres a reason it was done this way? get my drift? lol

rofl@ Cate,anytime,just holler,lol
Ron always had the purple car and he had already gotten the truck before the good samaritan paid Crystals back child support. It was paid in July 2009 I believe.
I think we’d all go into shock to hear one scrap of truth from these characters? rofl
Can’t wait for Tobias to get back from examining the dockets to tell us what is up with Tommy!
So maybe he did talk and they moved him so that his parents can visit?
I am copying this whole article because articles disappear with this newspaper after a while..
Croslin back in Putnam custody-Sentencing on drug charges set for July 6
By Larry Sullivan-Palatka Daily News
Published: Thursday, June 24, 2010 1:09 AM EDT
The brother of the woman called the key to solving the Haleigh Cummings disappearance is back in the Putnam County Jail.
Hank �Tommy� Croslin Jr. has been held in the St. Johns County Jail in St. Augustine since he and four others were arrested on drug charges earlier this year. He was brought back to Putnam County on Wednesday night.
He pleaded no contest three weeks ago to trafficking in hydrocodone.
St. Johns County was holding Croslin at the request of Putnam Sheriff Jeff Hardy so he would not be with others jailed in the case held in custody in Palatka.
�Now that he has pleaded and is scheduled to be sentenced soon, it�s my decision that it�s appropriate to bring him back to this jail,� Hardy said.
Croslin is slated to be sentenced in Putnam County Circuit Court on July 6, said sheriff�s office spokesman Lt. Johnny Greenwood.
Croslin is the older brother of Misty Croslin, who was babysitting Haleigh Cummings when the child vanished in February 2909.
Both Croslins were arrested in January after an undercover investigation into illegal sales of prescription painkillers. Others jailed after the probe include Haleigh�s father, Ronald Cummings, his cousin Hope Sykes and Donna Brock, an Orlando woman who had befriended Misty Croslin.
Putnam investigators, frustrated with what they described as Misty Croslin�s inconsistent accounts of what happened the night Haleigh disappeared, have said she had information that could solve the case.
Sheriff Hardy said recently that authorities believe Haleigh is dead and that she was killed.
The latest search for Haleigh�s body or clues to her disappearance was in April in South Putnam County.
Teams of divers accompanied by local, state and federal authorities converged on the Shell Harbour boat ramp to the St. Johns River off County Road 309 � a neighbor where the Croslins used to live.
The three-day search ended April 15.
Last Monday, the sheriff�s office confirmed a human bone found during the search of the river bottom was determined to be from a Native American and was too old and large to be Haleigh.
�Uncovering bones belonging to Native Americans is not uncommon in this area due to the large number that once settled here,� Greenwood said in a statement.
Greenwood also said the Haleigh case was still an active investigation.
�Specific information regarding items recovered during searches, or the details of forensic examinations, cannot be discussed at this time,� he said.
Haleigh was reported missing at 3:27 a.m. on Feb. 10, 2009.
No trace of the blond-haired 5-year-old has been found, despite massive searches by law enforcement officers and volunteers. Haleigh�s disappearance initially was termed a child-abduction case.
Then 17-year-old Misty Croslin was dating Haleigh’s father, Ronald Cummings, and was babysitting Haleigh the night she went missing.
Croslin, now 18, told deputies she put Haleigh to bed just after 8 p.m. and went to bed herself a couple hours later. Croslin said she awoke around 3 a.m. to use the restroom when she noticed the kitchen light on, the door propped open with a cinder block and Haleigh gone.
Haleigh’s father, 26-year-old Ronald Cummings, was returning from his night-shift job at PDM Bridge in Palatka when the child was reported missing.
A month later, Croslin and Cummings married at his grandmother’s house in Welaka. They divorced seven months later.

Looking,ty..why i didn’t know,thats what I heard wayyy in the beginning,but if he did he still deserved the cs,he raised Haleigh her whole life so heck no,I’ll never bash him for that but i will for not protecting her! jmo
Cathyjo, Did I read that right? Did you say that Ron bought a purple car with that money? How does that support the children? I would have spent it on food, clothing, or even a search party perhaps…but a purple car? I hope JR grows up to be more of a man than ron…wouldn’t take much IMO

No changes for the dates on the court dockets. Tommy is an inmate now at Putnam county jail.
Why they would move him now is a mystery. jmo
And vaq, thanks to you, too, for doing the dirty work on calling out the liars!!
Me,No…..I said i heard that wayyyyy in the beginning,but he took her to dr appt’s and kept food and a roof so I’ll give him that!
Vaq 11:41
LOL!
Me,I agree,no effort needed to be a better man,lol jmo
If Ron used the money to buy the purple car he can always say that he did it for HaLeigh because purple was her favorite color. Out drivin’ around knowing that HaLiegh will run right up to the purple car.
Maybe Putnam just wants him closer to question him and save gas and time? I sure hope he is talking, if he knows anything. jmo
Tobias did it clarify that Tommy was still in protective custody? It did not say in the article.
jaba said,in June 24th, 2010 at 11:41 am The drug cases are criminal acts as
Jaba,I think justice for Haleigh is far more important than a drug case,don’t you? jmo?
There are always drug cases and plenty of them but theres only ONE HALEIGH! jmo
lol Cate…true
Amen CathyJo!!
lfJ, There is an article about Tommy being moved to Putnam County jail? If so, can you direct me to it?
PCSD Site doesnt say if he is in PC or GP just that he is an inmate since yesterday at 7pm.
I think its really strange…. jmo
jaba @ 11:41 am
There is no question that the drug trafficking are criminal acts. But these are three of the key players in Haleigh’s disappearance (or at least M is if LE is being truthful and if they’re right).
So there is no use in having them in jail – as far as Haleigh is concerned – except to squeeze them for the truth. Otherwise LE could even watch these people and wait for one of them to make a mistake and let the cat out of the bag or LE could pursue other theories.
If no info about Haleigh comes from this, then (IMO) there is no hope for Haleigh because LE will not pursue this.
jaba said,in June 24th, 2010 at 11:41 am The drug cases are criminal acts as well.
I don’t think we’d have what we have to go on, without what they have said while behind bars. Does that solve the case? No, not yet, maybe never, but they were dealin and LE got wind of it and stung them like they do all around the country. I doubt it was either of the 5’s first time selling drugs to another person.
**************************
Oh Really Jaba,exactly what do we have to go on?? just askin? sommin i dunno?
That is what I thought too Tobias! Really odd. jmo
Cause I’m still waiting!
Well, if he didn’t buy the puple car with that money thats great…but thats alot of food and shelter money… Could it be that some of it was spent on drugs etc? my goodness, could have purchased a down payment on a home for the children. sorry, I just can’t muster up any nice words for ron and Co today…better go take five and come back with a new attitude! lol bbl…it’s been awesome chatting with you all today. I’ll try to be back later this afternoon. My pca client has a drs appointment today, so I better get ready.
M2 Sheer Brilliance once again!!!!!
No use whatsoever while the guilty get away!
While I try staying open-minded and exploring other avenues I still strongly believe the answers are right there in satsuma.jmo
Agree 1000% on that CJ. 1000%
Still have to follow the law and the ‘faux fab five’ didn’t with regards to drug sales.
Two seperate issues linked together.
Haleigh is more important.
Please see lfj’s comment @ 11:43 am for info about R’s car.
Me,we all know it was if he got it,lol jmo but my point was cs should have nbeen made to pay it too Ron!!!!!!! jmo allz i was saying!
Yes,Jaba,she should be??
Cate (aka Kate) said,in June 24th, 2010 at 11:52 am lfJ, There is an article about Tommy being moved to Putnam County jail? If so, can you direct me to it?
I found it at Gainsville
all i hear is drugs,heck with the drugs,I want Justice for the little girl I have grown to love and defend every chance I get!
Am I reading it right ? Did he have bond posted on 6-24? Please someone tell me I am wrong. Go to putnam county jail logs He is on the booking log click on his arrest # and it shows a bail on the 6-24. OMG I hope I am reading it wrong. jmo
The death penalty wouldn’t apply for Misty, she was under 18 when the crime occurred and so she is exempt from the death penalty.
my link didn’t post,I sent it!
Tanya, go to Palatka Daily News. it is there on the front page.
omg tobias,i pray you are lying!
Cj 11 52
What WE know is what we’ve been talking about here for months. I know you didn’t miss anything.
Jail tapes have been a huge topic, right?
I know you’ve put in tons of hours discussing them as well as others.
Wouldn’t have that if they weren’t in jail. Has it found haleigh? No, but it hasn’t stopped anyone from picking the tapes apart. I’m cool with that. Love to read and discuss them, myself.
If he does,Lindseys had it! imo
If we don’t get an official word about what happened to HaLeigh then I think that it is more than reasonable to decide that she was taken by the maternal family and cannot be returned due to national attention.
In which case HaLeigh is most likely way better off than was before, imvho. In that case, it is the people of Putnam County who lose, being “protected” by corrupt LE, and the feds better get there quick! (Not saying, YET, that PCSO is corrupt, I’ll leave that up to CathyJo and vaq
.)
Although I have started to read some of the comments on Topix and wow, do they have things to say about PCSO… who seems to have been doing “business as usual” until the internet came along!
Exactly,you said we wouldn’t know what we know if not for the drug charges,what exactly do we know?
I wasn’t asking asking,I was flabbergasted i think??
Tobias the way I read it.It is only on the larceny charge next to it. It has the amout of 0 on that charge. If I am reading it right.
we know all about everybody,their bdates,their work history,property they own,how many times a day they go to bathroom,and how many meals they have,but still WTH is Haleigh??????????
Cathy Go look and tell me what you think I hope I am reading it wrong. Its on the PCSD booking site click on his booking number. jmo
lfJ & Tanya, thanks for the articles!

Amen Cate,I gotche back! on that subject!
Look at everything we have learned and all b/c a young girl had nothing to tell? its a farce,the whole dang thang!
Thats the only charge that kept him from getting bail in the beginning. Remember LP couldnt bail him with the no bail on that charge?jmo
It does say a bond was posted today. Did the one larceny charge have a bond before? OMG! I hope we are reading this wrong!
and Yes she would be better off Cate!
Tobias,I think Looking may be right,rather usually is……lol O Lord i hope..i just can’t belive that,omg
Not to mention people we pray will protect her Cte,Ya know,it really gets me now that I thought about for so long that Ron dealt drugs and risked JR after Haleigh “got stole” tells me alot! jmo and only jmo
Tobias it says the bond was posted at 9:34:57am but has no release date or time for him yet. It is 1:17pm here now.
TODAY???
comment deleted to keep from starting a fight in here again

OMG YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING BRB
Yes CathyJo the bond was posted today! the way I am reading it I think it is just for the one charge; not sure though. It has no release date and time yet. I guess we will have to keep an eye on that!
comment deleted because the words could cause a fight with others.

Just b/c its my theory doesn’t make it true!

Wow, if tommy is out it won’t be for long.
Hope he has a good time.
Maybe he’ll go on NG for a bombshell tonight.
So what do you mean by that Jaba??
do you have a wrinle remover OJ and i might then?? rofl

Looking,omg lets hope so,the only way i can see that if he’s told the truth about Haleigh and its proven,in which i’d agree totally then! Somebody needs to talk!
Cj 1156
They have ron which you like as the ma-n culprit, right?
I don’t like your comment tho,I don’t like ron at all,I also don’t like garbage!
But i do care for Haleigh?
I don’t likeeeee having ron as culprit but imo.actions speak way louder than any word thats ever came out of his mouth!
So don’t imply i like anything unless you know!
He’ll drink a beer and be back before tonight,I am sure! jmo

How long would we ‘wait’ for one of them to make a mistake and give up the goods on Haleigh?
I guess we are also waiting on the other side of the family to make a mistake as well.
They got in the drug dealin world and got caught.
_________________________________
Again Jaba,but they did not get caught at what happened to the reason we are here in the first place? jmo
Looking,yea,sleep with one eye open,lol
LOL!! CathyJo.
I said you think ron did it. He’s in jail.
I know its only your theory, I do.
He’s not getting away, being free, if he did it, right?
That’s all I’m saying.
I bet LE reads these blogs, too. They have had a lot of down time between leads. They probably know you.
jaba, what I’m concerned about is if we don’t find out what happened to Haleigh from the people currently locked up, then LE will drop the case assuming (probably correctly) that most people (who even know about this case – not many) assume that R did it or M did it and will go happily on their way as if the case is closed.
It won’t be closed to me until we find out what happened to Haleigh and who’s responsible and that person is prosecuted for it. Haleigh deserves more than assumptions and opinions and really that’s all there is at this point.
I hope to hello they do,maybe they’ll get sommin done Jaba,lol jmo
Well, I thought I’d stop back in, but I sense alittle turbulance in the air so I think I’ll lurk under my desk for abit…lol I guess if tommy gets bailed today, I guess I’ll have to swallow my pride and watch NG tonight…. UGH!
LOL!!! Jaba.
You said ron was the man in black. You like ron for the crime in your theory.
What do I have wrong?
M2c You are absolutely correct!!!!!!! AMEN!!!
Thank You M2,thats the point!
Getting Misty sent to prison for DRUGS ain’t gonna get the truth,I believe misty is innocent but that don’t mean I am right,thats just what i see myself,and the way it is now,everybodys confused the drug case with Haleighs,so now even if the truth comes out,we will all wonder till the day we die who was really guilty,Haleigh does not deserve that at allllllll!
Whomever,misty,ron,sheffs,griffis….who the hell ever needs to be brought to justice for HALEIGH not drugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats wrong! jmo
CathyJo, I think jaba was using LE slang when they say you “like Ron as da man”. Lots of times you will hear LE say things such as “who do you like at the perp”. Not meaning you like-(admire) him but that you like-(suspect) him.
I always thought Johnny Cash was the man in black…not Ronald Cummings! tee hee
no Turbulance here,lol Me……But if someone incinuates i just want someone hanged yea there will be,I judge by what i see and hear,its all we do have!
Misty would not be going to prison for drugs if she did not deal them. She should get away with doing one crime just because she hasn’t been caught for doing a different crime.
*She SHOULDN’T get way
man i like? you implied i was proud to suspect him???????? Thats Haleighs dad Jaba even if he don’t act like it!
no Sady Exactly,if she hurt Haleigh thats the crime she should be charged with!
whats a drug comapred to a life?? a 5 yr olds life?
CathyJo I really think you may have taken jaba’s meaning wrong.
If Misty did both crimes shouldn’t she be charged with both?
Well Me,if I had Johnnys cash and Charlies pride I’d be in Satsuma today,lol
No,I didn’t but i dropped it,I don’t want no trouble at all,but people put words in my mouth for days and i aint having it,I am always fair anybody knows it,but i won’t be hassled for a theory,I don’t do it for others theories,but an arrest for drugs is far from murder!
Say someone robs ABC Bank on 6/1 and the police have a suspect but not enough proof yet, then on 8/1 that suspect gets caught in the act of robbing XYZ Bank. Should the police just let them walk away and not charge them for robbing XYZ Bank even though they caught them red handed just because they don’t have enough evidence to also charge the suspect with robbing ABC Bank 2 months earlier?
Say we let Jaba do her own thinking hmmmm! ty
Lady,
You are correct.
M2c,
I agree with you for the most part.
I hope a Haleigh break happens and it won’t be dropped.
I also wonder what the real difference would make in Haleighs case if the five hadn’t agreed to traffick. Imo, I don’t think we’d be any further along. Imo. We can never know.
What I do know is what I see on the uc tapes and that is heavily edited.
All five agree they were dealin. Misty says it on one of her tapes. Her dad says it.
Unless my eyes deceived me, they are guilty of dealing drugs. The law states that they must be charged and tried in a timely fashion. If the drug investigation brings new leads/info on the disappearance of Haleigh Cummings, then Glory be to God, lets take it. Haleigh deserves justice in a timely fashion as well. JMO

and you are correct!!! true enough but i am more worried about Justice for HALEIGH!
CathyJo, I apologize you are correct I should have let jaba speak for herself.
TY! Lady,I appreciate that!
I figure if there is turbulance,its best between the 2 who had it,lol and I am not mad but i am frustrated with the drug charges and no truths!
I dont blame Mistys parents for her being in jail for drugs because in the tapes Hank even says he told her not to be doing the things she was doing and Misty even says she should have listened to them. This proves Hank and Lisa tried to get her to straighten out but she did what she wanted. jmo
I reread jans article on this page again. Very salient words.
I think all defendants get a trial by judge or jury so we won’t have to worry about a hangin’ anytime soon. Lol
To me a theory, IF proven right, means that culprit gets punished. I’m all for that. No matter who’s it is.

lol cathy your too much..
comment edited by Jan Barrett – BNN Editor
methinks @12:51 – IMO there is no justice for Haleigh in locking up these people on drug charges. We don’t know what happened to her or who’s responsible.
jaba @ 12:57 “if proven” are the key words to me as far as Haleigh is concerned.
CathyJo @ 12:53 = I agree!
Cathyjo, I understand your frustration. I believe we all do. Imagine the frustration the family members that truly love Haleigh must feel. You have every good reason to feel this way. I hope we get our answers soon.
Yikes, WHAT is going on with Tommy. I don’t want to have to stoop to watching NG to find out!!!!!!!!!
Lady,
U were correct.
Putnam has 12 days to get any new info out of Tommy. Lets hope if he knows anything he will tell them before he is sentenced. jmo
M2c, I totally agree…but only if the charges were drummed up by le. This does appear to be the case, but still they participated willingly. This can’t be overlooked.
Tommy will keep his mouth shut and do his time for drug charges and be out.
The drug charges have nothing to do with Haleigh. The drug charges are because Ron, Misty, Hope, Tommy and Donna COMMITTED the CRIME of trafficking drugs. Why should the be allowed to commit any crime they want just because we don’t know what happened to Haleigh? So should Ron and Misty be allowed to go on a killing rampage and we should all just look the other way and say don’t charge them because we don’t know if they had anything to do with Haleigh’s case?
If they were didn’t sell drugs then they would not be going to prison for selling drugs.
Maybe they are just processing tommy out on the time served charge and sending him back to jail.
jaba, probably right, they are probably just processing tommy out and sending him back; just wishful thinking on my part that something “useful” is happening.
methinks, I totally agree that LE should not give them a pass. What I’m trying to say is that one or all of these people are – apparently according to LE – key to Haleigh’s case. LE could get them on drug charges anytime. These are low level DUMMIES in the drug world! In fact LE could have taped all those transactions and just held on to them for a while and continue to pursue Haleigh’s case. Then bring the drug charges later. But I think they did it now for one of two reasons: 1) to pressure someone into giving up info about Haleigh and (2) to cover their own butt if nothing came of it.
I’m sure LE knows that a lot of people watching this case think R did it and others think T did it and others think M did it. So maybe LE believes all those people will feel that justice has been done for Haleigh and will stop pressuring LE to actually solve the case.
I hope that doesn’t happen. I don’t know what happened and who did it. I just can’t let LE off the hook this easy.
I think if Tommy had anything to tell he could get out with time served and probation, if he gave the right info. But he may not really know anything. Guess its a wait and see until he gets sentenced. jmo
I agree that Misty and Ron and the rest of the Faux Fab Five should do their time for the drug dealing. And they also should have been wiser about knowing that they were on the radar of the entire nation.
Just so they get fair sentences relative to anyone else committing those types of crimes.
The bail was set high so that they couldn’t bond out but that is fine since their time served will contribute to their total time.
On the other hand, too much of their time in jail has been about creating the appearance that they are guilty, especially when you throw in “Judge” Nancy DisGrace!!
Lady,
I agree.
I wish we had hindsight where none of the five did the dealin with a uc and compare to now. We don’t, though.
I would bet that all five would have been arrested for something else, by now, where uc’s weren’t involved. Just my opinion based on their pasts and the road misty was following them on.
LadySadie @ 1:08 – IMO the drug charges do have something to do with Haleigh because I’m hoping that Haleigh is PCSO’s TOP priority. If locking up any one of those people could hinder the investigation of her case, then they could have and should have waited. Kidnapping and murder of a child trump drug charges – especially these penny ante low level dealers.
Lady, I agree. Call it a set-up, or call it peer pressure…they made a choice and were caught. I think the threat of decades in jail is alittle overkill, but the law in florida can’t be altered to suit a few… I think this is why so many have a problem understanding this drug sting. LE messed up the Haleigh Cummings investigation. I firmly believe that…yet the players messed up by getting involved in trafficing drugs. If I believe that my neighbors are selling drugs and report it, it’s law enforcments job to investigate it. If enough reports are made and le believes it, then sting them and sting them hard. My grandchildren deserve a drug-free neighbor hood to grow up in. sorry…got off on a rant. moo
Another example, there has been a string of rapes happening in a city all within a 2 mile radius. All the victims are between the ages of 25-30, all are red heads with blue eyes between the heights of 5’3″ to 5’5″. All the rape kits come back and the DNA is all of one person. The police have a suspect, but that suspect has never been arrested before and they are not in the DNA database. So the police decide to use a policewoman as a decoy but she has blonde hair so they put a red wig on her and she hangs around that 2 mile radius. The suspect grabs her and they arrest him. Should they not be allowed to take a DNA sample from him because they used a police decoy in a sting to catch him? If they do take an DNA sample and it is a positive match for all 5 of the real rapes should they not be allowed to charge him with the 5 real rapes because they used a police decoy in the sting to catch him? Did they “entrap” him by sending a police decoy into the known area that the rapes have been happening?

xxxxxxxxx agreed for sure.
If LE had knowledge that Ron, Misty, Tommy and company were dealing drugs and did nothing to stop them and they sold some drugs to a 13 year old child that overdosed on them would you then be blaming LE for not doing something to stop R, M, T & company when they first learned they were dealing?
hi everyone.. checking in on lunch hour…
still waiting for ANY word about HaLeigh…
and justice for her, Caylee, Kyron, and Natalie…
Lady, excellent point!
I think the debate point is what was the real impact on the Haleigh case of the drug sting.
Everyone here cares more about Haleigh than drug trafficking but we don’t have anyone charged in her disappearance just theories we all have based on our interpretation of what we can believe is fact.
None of that has proven any of us right or wrong at this point.
I can just hope along will all of you that we get Haleigh facts that give her peace.
Misty was definetly going down the worst road(she was mugged buying drugs) she could have been killed during that transaction, where would we be in the case if that happened? Or one of them could have ODed. They were caught red handed and are at least safe where they are until more is learned about Haleigh. jmo
jaba, For using the 3fs do I get a copy of a DVD of you doing the Ron Strut?
Or as I pointed out tobias, they could have sold drugs to a child and that child could have died from those drugs, they we would have another dead child because of their actions.
New article
http://www.bloggernews.net/124776
Tommy back in Putnam
I wonder who they intended on selling all those drugs the UC gave them right before the bust went down? 200 pills I believe, and Ron said he was pretty sure he could get rid of them in 2 weeks. jmo
I would imagine that le knows by now that if they were going to get answers from any of these people, they would have them already. but the mistakes have been made…what can be done to rectify it now? You can’t just let them go, they may not be any closer to solving the Haleigh case, but do we know that yet? I guess I wouldn’t jump to conclusions yet… espesially since le already tried that and it didn’t work. Maybe, just maybe they have a trump card somewhere up their sleeve (or elsewhere) that we don’t know about yet. All we can do is hope and pray that something good comes from this terribly tragic set of circumstances. and M2c, I too will refuse to let le off the hook at this point. Nobody in this case, whether it be le or any of those in jail deserves a free pass on this one until Haleigh is brought home.
Hi Everyone,
I’m trying to play catch up here and if I responded to each of you my post would be so long and so would the download time!
So’ll touch on a few until everyone but me is alone on the site!
m2c @9am- It’s a possibility!
Jan57@ 9:55am- Judges do some strange things but neighter Crystal or Ron are Parent of the year! Nor is Ron Mr. Mom going out selling drugs while his son is missing his sister!
lfJ @10:07 Totally agree @ 11:31am- If Ron got the moneywhat’s his excuse for selling drugs?
tm39 & Ladie Sadie- I beleive Crystal & Ron love HaLeigh in the same way that Casey loved Caylee!Cate @ 10:18am Some said that Ron was not operating the crane that night but don’t know if it’s true!

Very good point! Didn’t they find tommy parked on the side of the street by the school passed out? He could have killed a child even his own, or he could have oded himself.
What I’m waiting to see is what will happen to the investigation and what will we and a lot of others do after everyone is convicted and sentenced – if there is no revelation or even solid info about Haleigh.
Cate,
Those dvd’s were stolen recently. My security cam caught only a glimpse of the perp. It was either ronbo, or britneys ex, kevin federline, aka kfed.
We are still investigating. Trying to rule out ron first. His alibi seems pretty solid.
Kfed, he’s the “key”.
Pardon the levity of such a tragic case here, but I have to laugh at these folks sometimes.
Jaba, or at ourselves!lol

Then I guess I will still be emailing Sheriff Hardy regularly asking him what he is doing as far as the investigation goes. All that I personally able to do is let LE know that there is at least one person out here that expects them to do their job and continue investigating until they get an answer.

Alex per Rons attorney on NG stated that Ron was not operating the crane that night. He had to move items from one side to the other of PDM. This is how I heard that Ron was not doing his normal job that night.
Lady, lol I guess great minds do think alike!
Alex,
Thanks for doing it that way. It does help the refresh times on these lengthy threads.
Much appreciated.
LFJ, that makes sense. Also, it’s kinda hard (I imagine) to operate a crane and call home 90 times! Wouldn’t it take two hands to operate a crane?
Well, I guess I gotta’ go help the hubs unpack some more…it’s been fun bein’ back. catch up with ya later everyone!
Okie222@ 11:41am- I think Tommy has a mediation set for next week! I’m not good at finding these things either, but if you keep asking someone who is could point you in the right direction!

————–
but he didn’t call 90 times, it was around 20 and that was confirmed by LE,more than once. the 90 comes from AH and him only. If it was around 8:30 like TJ said that is probably his lunch break
I have been doing some hard thinking. Ron had been with Misty for over a year and still hadnt got any info out of her. He gets into a road rage incident with Misty in the vehicle(and kids supposedly) with CJones. He decides to deal drugs along side Misty at the risk of losing Junior and not finding Haleigh if he is caught. He stopped talking to all media after the Maury show in Oct. CJones actually did us a favor by reporting the road rage, or we wouldnt know they were together. Misty called 911 because she knew that CJones would be. What does this show? Ron has moved on and is not looking for Haleigh. But thats just my opinion. jmo
jaba, ROFLMAO! Absolutely, humor is essential— “key,” you might say. If it wasn’t fun here we wouldn’t all keep coming back.
And being here is especially important now. Kids disappearing in the middle of the night and nobody accounting for it!? NO WAY!
lfJ- I beleive Ron was not operating the crane that night but I’d like to have confirmation from his boss or fellow employees! Really don’t trust what any of the lawyers say in this case!!!!!!
Alex, With lawyers I always listen for what they arent saying. And Rons lawyer is real good at avoiding the major questions. What ever happened to the fund to get a PI? That never even got started, because they never intended to do it. It was also his lawyer that made the statement that LE told them to plan a funeral. I plan on listening real close to what the lawyers say and dont say. jmo
Did anyone research Shoemaker? He has only been a lawyer since 2000. Before that he was a physical therapist with the Astros. Iwill see if I can copy his bio. brb jmo
Since graduating from Florida Coastal School of Law in 2003, Shoemaker worked as an Assistant State Attorney in the Seventh Judicial Circuit, spending the past two years working as a member of the Felony Trial Division. His trial experience includes DUI manslaughter, sexual battery, robbery, and drug cases. In addition to his career as an attorney, Shoemaker has over fifteen years of diverse professional experience. After receiving a Masters degree in Athletic Training, he worked as a faculty member in the Sports Medicine program at Mount Union College, then as an Athletic Trainer with the Houston Astros Professional Baseball Club. Shoemaker left the Houston Astros to attend law school after the 2000 season. Prior to completing his education, Mr. Shoemaker served in the United States Navy.
Thought everyone would be interested in this. jmo
tobias, refresh my memory, who does Shoemaker represent?
Vac, I know it was only twenty times, I was exagerating…I guess I should be careful, as some may think I was stating a fact!
THE FLORIDA TIMES-UNION
June 14, 2005
Labor camps go back for years
By MATT GALNOR
The Times-Union
Former workers speak of being recruited from urban homeless shelters to rural Northeast Florida labor camps where beer and crack are sold on credit, the tab coming out of their scant weekly pay.
Attorneys, including one who has been on the job since the mid-1970s, say the practice has gone on for years.
Yet, there’s been little police attention until a June 3 raid on an East Palatka camp.
Putnam County Sheriff Dean Kelly, in law enforcement here since 1982, said he had never heard of workers getting into debt by purchasing drugs at the camp.
The raid on Ronald Evans’ secluded Stewart Road camp in East Palatka netted 148 rocks of crack cocaine, though no drug charges have been filed. Four people, including Evans, were arrested on labor law violations.
Evans is charged with five counts, including making false statements to labor officials. He faces up to 13 years in prison.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office has said there’s an ongoing investigation, but spokesman Steve Cole said on Monday afternoon that there were no new developments.
Robert Fields, Evans’ attorney, did not return phone calls seeking comment Monday.
Deputies are called to the Evans camp occasionally on charges ranging from accidental injuries to stabbings, said Capt. Gary Bowling of the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office. Bowling added, though, that it’s not out of line with calls to apartment complexes or mobile home parks.
“It is not any different than any other place where you get a lot of strangers living in close quarters,” Bowling said.
There are about a dozen labor camps in Putnam and St. Johns counties that provide workers for the cabbage and potato farms in the region.
While most of the problems with farm workers across the state are with illegal immigrants, Northeast Florida’s farm laborers are U.S. citizens. This is the last part of the state where people are recruited from homeless shelters and end up in debt for drugs and alcohol, said Rob Williams, director of the Migrant Farmworker Justice Project of Florida Legal Services in Tallahassee.
Williams, who has been representing workers since 1975, said the practices were rampant 20 and 30 years ago but are now exclusive to this part of the state.
Will Anderson, who worked at Evans’ camp two years ago, said he’d make about $30 a week and many others at the camp owed thousands of dollars. Others who stayed at other camps in Hastings and Elkton shared similar accounts.
“I think this lack of enforcement reflects an attitude that perhaps some agencies don’t care what happens out there, or didn’t care,” said Lisa Butler, an attorney with Florida Rural Legal Services, another agency that represents farm workers.
Kelly said authorities try to keep an eye on all corners of the county and Evans’ camp is part of a regular patrol, though he couldn’t say how often deputies drive by the property. Kelly said there have been drug charges at different camps but said he was surprised at how much crack was found during the raid.
St. Johns County Sheriff David Shoar compared the recent buzz about labor camps with the stir about sex offenders after two Florida girls were killed by registered predators this year. The extra attention in the news media will lead to more patrols and a closer look from authorities when the farm season ramps up again in the fall, he said. Potato season is wrapping up and crews will move north. Evans’ workers normally go to North Carolina.
Shoar cautioned, though, that violations at the camps are tough to prove.
“It’s a whole different world,” he said. “It’s kind of hard to penetrate; it’s kind of hard to get a handle on it.”
Butler said the crimes are there, if police choose to investigate them.
“This is not the first time these practices have been reported and made public,” she said. “I think that speaks for itself.”
Very interesting doing investigation into the lawyers. hmmm. jmo
tobias, Thanks for posting that about Shoemaker. He seems to like being in the spotlight?
gotta’ go drive home; i hope i don’t miss any news while I am driving, like Tommy walking free?!
Here’s an article from wesh.com (mainstream news) about PCSO deeming the case a homicide. Apparently they told the family earlier in the week.
What is the difference between announcing this is a homicide and informing the family of that and telling the family to plan a funeral?? Who knows what Hardy told the family in private? Why is that important?

looking for Justice said,in June 24th, 2010 at 7:24 am me,TJ Hart reprted the 8:30pm call as well as a few others including A.H. Everyone was up in arms due to the fact it was the first time we heard about an argument transpiring between Ron and Misty. I believe you can find that info in the Sept 21st 2009 article in the BNN archives. It would be in the headline brother says Misty was not home the night of Haleighs disappearance.

Thank you for that. I knew I’d heard it, but forgot where from!
Tobias @ 2:18 – That along with an unbelievable number (almost daily) of totally baseless and vile accusations are “okay” because they are “just your opinion?”
Well I think opinions and theories about the case are fine but these kinds of accusations are IMO just plain character assassination and the kind of thing that starts completely false rumors. Nor do those kinds of comments have anything to do with Haleigh’s disappearance that I can see.
You said Ron didn’t want to be Dad to Amber’s baby because he has a disability. Where do you get that?
Why even say that?
You said, “What ever happened to the fund to get a PI? That never even got started, because they never intended to do it.” Where do you get that? Who said that?
And these are very mild examples And about M too. “Misty called 911 because she knew that CJones would be.”
Anything horrible you can think of – without any foundation or even relevance – is okay????? Why do you say things like this – What’s it got to do with anything other than your desire to flay the man alive, peeling inches of skin off every day?
If you can do that, then I can post my comment about it because you know what? It’s jmo.
And by the way, friends, that is not a personal attack. That is me expressing my opinion about certain comments just the way we do about mis-information and false rumors – and IMO these are just as bad and unhelpful.
Can someone please refresh my memory and tell me how old Misty was when this drug sting happened and what her birthdate is? TIA

Maybe the mattress wasn’t in that room — at that time. Is it just me, or does anyone else see anything significant, that maybe it was important to TN that it be thought that the child’s bed was always in the master bedroom?
Sorry, can’t stick around right now.
I was just reading up on “Operation PainKiLler” in Florida that netted over 172 arrests, including two doctors on June 3, 2010. One doctor was charged with two counts of trafficking hydrocodone and the other for three counts of trafficking. I would really like to know what their bonds or what sentences they are facing, considering they gave prescriptions to hundreds of patients according to the article. How does that warrant only two to three counts of trafficking when they are charged by weight/grams of the pills involved? I wonder if they are similar to what Misty and the rest received.
It’s got EVERYTHING to do with why I only stop in occassionally or only come by when someone provides a specific link for a specific reason….(Reply to Jan’s article, not anyone’s comment)
me..the 8:30 phone call came from TJ Hart, he was down there at the time,that is how we learned of this, he also straightened out the 90 phone calls to 20,which I could understand, as Ron was just in this conversation with Misty and then she wasn’t answering the phone, so I would imagine he just kept hitting redial.I forget which thread was talking about the purple Altima car that Ron has, well it was bought by Marie G so Crystal would have a car, but it ended up staying with Ron, Marie talks of this on a video.I have always wondered what Ron did with the 12,000 dollars, it must have went somewhere pretty fast, because he was always needing money.
Dreamfinder..that does look like Kyron in the car, the family has just released lots of new pictures and a video of Kyron,do you belong to Missing Kyron Horman,you should check it out, the guy in the plaid shirt has been identified, I just went and looked, but I didn’t see where they said about the one behind the bookcase, the second one you posted almost looks like a dark skinned woman driving, Terri has a 16 yr old son,there is somebody with Kyron looking at something in front of the Christmas tree, that made my heart skip a beat,not sure how old the picture is,but just go check it out and maybe post your car picture on the site.
Just Curious,
The answer for the 12,000.00.. This was the answer given.. not that I believe it nor promote it.
“Ron, just kept having so much trouble with his truck, and he just had to keep having to take it back to the mechanic, and the mechanic said, he just didn’t understand how these things kept happening to the truck.. and he spent all of his money on getting the truck fixed….”
“Just Curious,
I forget which thread was talking about the purple Altima car that Ron has, well it was bought by Marie G so Crystal would have a car, but it ended up staying with Ron,”
================================================
Question: If Marie owned that vehicle, why did it end up with Ron? How could he re-license the vehicle or even have insurance on it, if it were still in Marie’s or Crystal’s name? Why would they leave it with him? When was the last time that Ron and Crystal were living together? Was it after 2007? Little tid bits always seem to slip out, and the reality begins to sink in.. There is far more to the story of crystal and ron than we have ever been told.. And I agree with Jan, Chloe nor Junior belong in Crystals custody, its very clear that Marie is taking care of Chloe, and I suspect she takes care of Junior also.. As well, Haleigh nor Junior should have been in the custody of Ron… This hurts my heart to realize, DCF failed all three of those Children. I heard that the way it was done, was creating a basis of evidence against the parent, so that when they did take the children from the home they would have all of their evidential ducks in a row.. Problem, with that.. the children were still being exposed to their normal – abnormal lifestyles, and it resulted in the disappearance of a child. And for ron’s co-operation with DCF, is quite Odd and questionable, since they had ordered in November or December that Misty could not be anywhere around Junior, yet for two weeks prior to the arrest of both she and ron, she was staying at the house with ron and junior?? So, many secrets are kept, not to be told.. I have come to one conclusion.. Anyone that comes online and tells a truth, will immediately be attacked, that’s one method of determining the truth.. And many rumors have actually been proven out.. called lies, yet in the end are proven out.
One issue has began to make my stomach hurt, the thought that if Haleigh is alive and well, and is happy and safely hidden away.. That if she were found, they would have to bring her home to live in the muck she was rescued from. And thats what would happen, right now she would go to Crystal.. And if Ron didn’t go to prison and she were found, she would be returned to him, and his lifestyle.. DCF and the court would go with DCF recommendations, and since he has legal custody of her, if he were out both children would go back to him, until DCF would decided they have enough evidence to remove them.. Therefore, I hope she is never found, and that she can grow up to have a normal life.. And its too bad that Junior and Chloe cannot be salvaged from the muck before something happens to one of them.
