We will be running our regular Sunday call in talk radio program. The focus will be on Haleigh Cummings, but we will likely touch on some of the other missing children as well. It is with a combination of amusement and horror that Jan and I read the emails.
Why do we focus on Haleigh Cummings, what about all of the other missing children?
This is a valid question. Is Haleigh more important than any other child? No, absolutely not, every missing child deserves the maximum coverage. The problem is that there are so many of them. Jan covers as many cases as she can, but we do not even scratch the surface.
Most news organizations have moved on from Haleigh. It would be wrong to criticize them, most are bound by corporate obligations to cover what is hot breaking news rather than a case that is approaching the one year mark.
A few of us though do continue to follow the case, our motives are varied and mostly personal. Jan and I provide coverage because we believe that every child deserves a voice, we wish that we had the resources to cover every missing child, but we do not.
It has not been reported in the press yet, but it would seem that the law enforcement agencies in northern Florida are becoming more active in the effort to curb the illegal use of prescription drugs, a subject that keeps being mentioned in the Haleigh Cummings case.
As of this update our panel for the program is going to be: Jan and Simon Barrett, news and programming director for WSKY 97.3 TJ Hart, the Crime Doctor Denny Griffin, and investigative journalist Levi Page. I am also hoping to have Armando Aldazabal join us, he is a successful author and for a time lived in the Putnam County area, he is well versed on the drug culture in this geographic region.
To listen in, just point your browser to www.blogtalkradio.com a few minutes before 3pm central Sunday 17/Jan, you will see the link to the program on the front page.

hank Sr? TC? MC? another “player”? An unknown?
Come on Sunday!!! Is this why no mention of LC & TC jr courtdate????
My hats off to Jan,Simon and the gang for keeping Haleigh in the news. Their passion is obvious. If their efforts help to find one missing child pays off then I say its worth the farm.
Kudos to you and Jan for the hard work you do and have done in the past in keeping all these missing children up front for us.
It has almost become a daily event in the news lately, another child goes missing/abused or found dead.
News regarding Haleigh (who has been missing for almost 1 year now) has dwindled down to practically nothing except when one or two in the family makes news regarding an arrest due to in-family fighting or an arrest with drugs.
How unfortunate their efforts can’t be better served in helping to bring Haleigh home where she belongs.
Have they forgotten about this child? Have they dismissed her from their minds?
Thank you Simon and Jan for doing the job that they have neglected to do for the sake of their own selfish means.
IMO
Thank you Jan and Simon, for keeping us updated on Haleigh Cummings, as well as other missing children. Thank you to the program panelist, TJ, Denny and Levi, as well! All of your efforts, in keeping us informed of news on missing children, and continuously keeping their names in the media, is very much appreciated!
I am looking forward to the show on Sunday!
I am looking forward to your Radio Show at 3 p.m. CST on Sunday!
Thank you for your coverage of missing children.
A Florida story we may have missed from yesterday and its’ follow-up…
Palatka boy stabbed to death, police officer slashed in face. An 8-year-old Palatka boy was stabbed to death and a Palatka police officer wounded during an attack Tuesday night in the city, police said.
Assistant Police Chief James Griffith said he’s unsure what caused the stabbing that left little Dayquone Hill dead and Officer Todd Bryant with a cut on his cheek. Police charged Zachariah Williams, 22, of Palatka with murder and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, Griffith said.
Palatka child stabbing suspect had 28 prior arrests. At 22, the man accused in Tuesday’s stabbing death of an 8-year-old Palatka boy has a criminal past stretching back nearly 10 years.
Florida Department of Law Enforcement records show he’s had 28 arrests, including 10 probation violations.
“He’s an extremely volatile individual who has been involved in a lot of crime,” said Assistant Chief James Griffith of the Palatka Police Department.
On Tuesday, police said Zachariah Tochshema Williams, whose age was initially listed as 20 by authorities, fatally stabbed Dayquone Hill inside a Palatka apartment.
Williams and Dayquone’s mother were boyfriend and girlfriend, Griffith said.

Makes you wonder where was child services and why was this guy out on the streets? I wonder where was he from March until he was booked into Putnam county on Jan. 2010? I sure hope he was in a jail somewhere and not walking the streets? Does anyone know? Maybe the poor 8 year old would be alive if he would have been locked up and serving a sentence for his other multitude of offences?jmo
I feel for the police down there, they bust em then they are back out on the streets within minutes. What the hey. Everyone seems to be upset at PCSO when they should be upset with the court system down there. jmo
It’s the low bond amounts too, Tobias. I have never seen such low bond amounts in my life. I wonder who sets bond amounts for the county?
I would assume it would be the judge. jmo
Usually there is a bond or bail hearing before a judge ,who sets the bond or bail. Then you are bonded out by a person or bailbond company.
It seems to work real fast down there. I would assume some offences may have set bonds? jmo
There are lots of missing children, that’s true, and a lot are forgotten. Jan does keep, as many as she can, mentioned but there is something about Haleigh that I can’t get out of my head. Why can she not be found? We have to bring as much attention to her case as we can. God bless you, Haleigh! God bless you Jan, Simon & TJ for not giving up on this little girl.
Here in San Diego we have our missing child Amber Dubois. I have been on searches for Amber, and have talked at length with Amber’s mom, and Marc Klass. The famlies of missing children need to have closure, whether it be the best case or the worse case scenario. They need to know that LE is doing everything they can everyday to find their child. Public support is very important. The families want to public to aways be on the lookout for their child. To know that, though they cannot search every square inch of the world, others will keep their eyes open to find their missing child. It brings comfort and relief to the families. Jan and Simon-Thanks for doing this.
A child murderer is all about opportunity and being completely selfish, IMO anyone who is facing the possibility of being charged with kidnapping & or murdering a child is going to leap all over the opportunity of washing away the possibility of never being charged with it. Misty has so many outs in regards to a kidnapping or murder charge. She could simply jump a board the stories that she left and say the child accidentally over dosed, roamed off, fell and hit her head, that she was at a pond partying & the child roamed into the water and never resurfaced there is an endless amount of stories she could give that could serve as her the easy way out. Easy way out you ask? A charge of child neglect as a 17 year old baby sitter, her defense lawyer could show the extremely dysfunctional home she came from and lack of parenting which would give credit to her inability to know how to parent. She could say she was terrified of Ronald her defense lawyer could haul up Tim Miller to tell stories of gun demonstrations and threats of blowing her teeth through her head in front of a toddler. Crystal would be subpoenaed to go over allegations of abuse. White Boy Greg and the rest would be brought in to tell stories of parties’ drugs and more dysfunctional behaviour. Tommy Croslin would be brought in to tell how he went there and she was not there. Ronald’s mother would be brought in to explain in more depth her statements to Nancy Grace regarding how dysfunctional the Croslin family is. The amount of witnesses to collaborate her defense which would be that she was terrified of Ronald and came from a dysfunctional home is endless including the police their selves as result of their numerous public announcements that Misty left the home. The public would gobble it up a defense lawyer would not ask for a change of venue ensuring a bias conviction which would grant Misty the easiest way out. Misty would never have to look over her shoulder never have to worry about being brought up on kidnapping or murder charge 5-10-20 years down the road when she’s married with little kids living in middle America. A person that is capable of committing kidnapping & or killing a child is about opportunity and serving them self with no regard to anyone’s rights or life other than their own, that monster that mind is going to leap all over an easy way out. Tim Miller could actually end up helping Misty out with taking the easy way along with Donna Brock, Crystal & her family, Police, “friends” and even this Jones person would shed light on the fury of Ronald which would be backed up by Police in their statement that Ronald usually carries a hand gun. Right now today Misty could turn the tables on Wyatt and tell him what he wants to hear take her charge get a specialist to give evidence of the impact regarding domestic violence, and the home she grew up in. Misty could take her 6 months of probation and be on her way change her name and tell Wyatt to go “very bad words here” & never look over her shoulder again. She could completely work Tommy over and say he was the one that drove her out that night “that’s the part he forgot to mention” That they sat by a stop where little kids go and did dope when she became coherent enough to see where she was like dust in the wind Haleigh had got out and just roamed off. Misty could be really vindictive and say Lindsay has known all along but is likely keeping silent because of Tommy’s proven domestic violence history. Misty could say Nay Nay is telling the truth or that she was having sex in the home and Haleigh did catch them became distraught and ran out the door to find her dad never to be seen again. Crystal & families threats of having her stabbed/killed only helps her out in terms of having a defense that she has been to scared to come forward with the truth. So what would a sentence give her? shelter , food, safety, counseling, education chances, chances at becoming employable, restraining orders from the violent word she by no choice of her own was born into and numerous other things, maybe a book or a show where she can pore her hearts storey out to the world and cash in on a cool million. I don’t know if Tommy Croslin did this but I do know either way he is lying about what transpired that night which IMO makes him a bottom feeding low life anyone who would self gain off the tragedy of a child to me is self serving with no regard to that child’s right for Justice or any of her rights period, & if I met him in a middle of a supermarket I would tell him straight up what I thought of him the last thing I would do is give him a heads up to the world and get out of jail free card, or sleep beside him. Misty was home, Misty was sleeping end of story IMO. Now the LE needs to find who went in and took her.
God Bless Haleigh and all her families
Bonanza, Dont forget Hasanni Campbell is in the area close to you too. He was reported missing in August in Oakland California by his aunt(fostermother) and her boyfriend. They were arrested then released and have made no effort to help find this little boy since.jmo
Jan and Simon you do what you can but others need to step forward and do exactly what you are doing. People need to get involved, people who have the same credentials and contacts that you have. Maybe you are the pioneers and others will follow we can only hope. jmo
My understanding is the foster parents were arrested in the disappearence of Hasanni Campbell. We in Soutern California don’t really hear much about this story, as it happened in Northern California—which might as well be a separate state. The internet is great for keeping up with stories from around the world, but people tend to focus on those things that happen locally.
They were released because of lack of evidence and now have made no effort to find him. The local people and one business owner are the only people really making an effort to locate him. Her name is Sheri Miller I believe. She runs a t-shirt shop and has raised 75,000 reward with benefits and other events. Where are all these missing kids? Its unbelievable that people dont care more. jmo
Tobias,
If they start charging the worthless parent that put the child’s life in danger with a worthless live in,maybe some will start to think.Otherwise,they’ll keep having kids from different people and endangering thier children,because sex is more important to them.
I find it hard to believe that this lowlife didn’t show signs of violence before he killed this child and she didn’t know anything about his criminal history.It keeps happening and the child is the victim.What a worthless woman,she just as well killed that child by her choices.
Well they now have their own biological child, hope they are on child services radar. jmo
I hope on Sunday the panel clarifys why Lisa was charged with battery in Aug. and we are just now finding it out. I thought florida had a law (sunshine law) that all arrests would be posted for public acsess? Tommy had a restraining order on him and Ron had a battery charge from Tommy but I never saw a report or arrest for Lisa in that incident. And now there is something going on to hide the court records for this battery charge and the court actions on Jan.14 2010. Why? jmo
Tobias, that homicide occurred last spring. The guy was taken into custody the same day and has not been back out. If you will read just a little beyond some fruitcake’s post somewhere, you’ll see that he was not competent to stand trial and was being held in a criminal psych unit.
I guess if there is no news, you gotta manufacture some to stir the pot, similar to TJ Hart inferring that the MLK Plaza shooting was somehow related to Misty. GMAB.
Armando, how’s living in Satsuma werking out? Oh, wait, I forgot. You never did live there, did you? Just a typo or something, I guess.
How is Mr. Cobra doing these days? I have worried about him since his last appearance on the show.
WinterRose, the g/f did know about his problems and tried to get him admitted into a psych hospital a day or two before he killed her son, but they were turned away.
iirc, he was hallucinating that she was Cleopatra and all kinds of other crazy stuff. Sounded like he might have schizophrenia, but I don’t know.

I contend there is a very low probability Louis Ross had anything directly to do with Hassani Campbell’s disappearance.
My understanding is he had been very cooperative, and received poor treatment from investigators in return. Seems kind of like in Misty’s case where LE has latched onto one person. Besides if he killed Hasanni, why did prosecutors drop the case (pretty quickly too) for lack of evidence?
Just to clearify for th record I did not live in Satsuma. When living in th area I stayed in St. Agustine FL not far from it, but I believe it’s St. Johns county. But I did help a friend set up and open a sales room in Satsuma. During th Haliegh Disspearance.
So LF ur right but wrong….and nothing ever works out in Satsuma. Lol
Look forward to the show tomorrow.
LFlorida, nice of you to show up to take a shot at TJ again. Give us all a break please.
Thanks TJ, Simon, Jan and the panel for staying on this.
I can’t understand why anyone would stay there in that county, much less raise their children there. If Timmy and his wife can get out of there, others can. How did it get so bad, there?
Hi everyone,
I’m really looking forward to the show tomorrow.
Thanks to all for trying to keep Haleigh’s name out there, especially when there’s not much to report on. I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since this little angel disappeared. I still pray for her & her family every day.
I’ve been a bit under the weather, so it seems like forever since I’ve been able to read the posts.
Glad to hear you’re going to be on the show with the other panelists Armando.
Off to do a few chores. Hope to check back later. I’ve missed all the conversations.
stormgardner, so glad to hear from you!! Sorry you have been under the weather, hope you are better now. We have missed you but you have done the best thing that can be done for Haleigh and her family. Praying for her is priceless!!!
Armando,
Glad to hear you are going to be on the show tomorrow. It will be interesting to hear “your take” or opinion on what goes on in that area.
I am looking forward to the show. There is a great panel!
Gosh almost a whole year still no haleigh or adji that is devastating and heartbreaking i wish we knew the truth about what happened to these kids my heart goes out to them still praying to will pray till we find them and after i pray they are still alive such beautiful children
Why are people bashing LFlorida? She lives in the area and probably knows more than any of us regarding this case. I always find her posts on WS very informative. Play nice!
I really cannot believe the amount of paid bloggers, and people who only want to play a game like Devils Advocate, come into forums just to troll and play games. It’s a sad state of affairs. Going back to the beginning in this case, and knowing that LE is working this case, and that its in no way a cold case, is reassuring. I think that RC’s continued efforts and attempts to distance himself from his own child, and the “scene of the crime” in this case, speak for him quite well.
“I was at work” Someone stole my baby, a SO has my baby. How’d you let my baby get stole B. Please look for my baby. I don’t know what she was wearing (whining here as he did on the 911 call)
the repeated references to someone breaking in that trailer when in fact it’s obvious that didn’t happen. The effort on camera to say someone who could “pick locks” did this. Cleaning up the trailer to let in media, no pillow cases on any pillow in the home. No seperate sleeping quarters for the children (imo that right there is a HUGE warning bell to ME) No timeline as to what really happened after Haleigh came home from school that day…Oh yes, the Gun….and RC’s repeated rageful incidents, chasing people in cars (heard his engine revving past TJ that night you could hear the pedal to the metal) the fury and anger on the 911 call instead of outright FEAR.
The repeated attempts to sit on the lawn holding his childs picture, “look for her, she is missing!”
I’m sorry, I never believed a word that spewed from his mouth. Not word one.
Anger, his displaced anger is what repeatedly has set my meter on over drive. When a tragedy happens believe me, anger is months and months down the line, it’s not the first and foremost emotion one would show. But it would be if someone was trying to mislead an investigation, and the public.
Those who can not see past RC and MC’s antics, I’m sorry for you. Those who are being paid to come in to boards and troll or just plain play a game, with this childs life or death, shame on you. She went dead and or “missing” on RC’s watch. Whether he was at work, or not, he is responsible for the position he put this child in, iow he is responsible, and instead of showing shame and horror at his decisions, he MARRIES the person who knows the truth. Why?
Most likely because he was trying to silence her using fear and intimidation, nothing new here folks.
When reveiwing the HC case there is one image that sticks in my mind that rings so false I could spit: And it’s the image of RC rocking back and forth holding this precious babies photo, in front of the cameras and it’s forced “grieving” and did not ring true with me. IMO, only RC and MC are responsible for this lovely child. They have failed her. And they will not, admit it. Instead, they are doing everything to attempt to stay out of prison, for whatever happened. They are doing everything to “distance” themselves from that day/night, even going so far as to LEAVE and MOVE, and there is no home for HC to return to. This also says to me, IMO that they KNOW she will NEVER
be coming back.
Like Joshua Powell. Like so many others. When a perp moves after an incident, to me it says one thing: I cannot live with what happened here, every room is a reminder, I see her every where, I know she is gone, I know what happened, I cannot live here.
I have to leave (they are only thinking of themselves here)
Any parent, waiting on the safe return of their child, would dig deep to get through that, and stay put, hoping one day hoping against all odds. But these two, they moved. They ate out on the town. They MARRIED. They took trips to NY and tats to memorialize Haleigh. And you usually only do that when you know someone is dead. Not coming back ever.
THAT is what a memorial tattoo is, Ronald. It’s to REMEMBER someone by. Someone you will NEVER see again.
It’s my firm opinion that RC and MC know exactly what happened to this precious gift from Crystal. They know, and they will do and say anything to mislead the public on a wild goose chase.
There is NO statute of Limitations on Murder. There is plenty of time, to watch their antics, and keep them under the watchful eye of LE. Plenty of time, for charges in her death. And I do think she is dead. When people say let’s bring her home, HC does not have a home to come back TO. When someone is dead, they do not “come back home” they are buried, and given a memorial. What is RC’s intention?
Wait 7 years, have her declared dead then cash in on her life insurance policy? Did he have one on Haleigh? TJ maybe you can look into this for all of us. Because we would ALL like to know the answer to that.
Bug
I would like to know how Ron plans on explaining what happened to Haleigh years from now to Junior? He should want this solved as soon as possible, with the blogs and news will Junior believe anything he says. He married Misty 1 month later, divorced her, still remained friends(or more) with her, and blamed his Mother. How can he really know who to believe, none of us can…. He will be the last victim in this if it goes unsolved. imho
I want to know how Lisa got charged with battery on the Aug. incident when Tommy was charged with it? We all saw the incident report and it clearly states Tommy and now there was a court docket on Jan.14 for Lisa as the deffendant for Mistys battery????????? jmo
Florida, I did not manufacture this news. I was pointing out the fact that the courts let people out on early release probation and they break probation and dont get thrown back in jail where they belong. I f this guy was locked up this little boy would be alive. If he was in prison he would have had phsyciatric evaluations and I believe that is only his next defense plea I was insane so I didnt know what I was doing.what a load of bull hoo.jmo
Bugout,
I agree there have been trolls out there, people who are making money off of blogging-I am not sure what you mean. Do people get paid for blogging Haleigh or talking about her? If so, I see that as profit off of tragedy—the worst kind of people.
I have always interpreted Ronald Cummings actions as true grief and fear for his daughter, as well as confusion as to what happened to her. For some people, anger and temper IS their emotion of fear and confusion. I have seen him after Haleigh went missig, and on interviews, and he has to me come across as credible–a good father who took good care of his kids. His alibi is tight. He passed a polygraph. However, I have always said that EVERYONE is suspect until Haleigh is found and the case solved.
It is natural to blame the parents when a child goes missig. It is denial—like saying “this could never happen to MY child because I am not like THEM, I am a GOOD parent”. It does happen to good parents. It happened to Marc Klass, Brenda and Damon Van Dam, Charles Lindberg, etc. It happens, and the only ones we can blame are the perpetrators. In this case, there is not enough evidence to point to anyone, so to conclude that someone did it, in my view, is narrow, and is hindering LE (Misty hold the key) from making any progress on the case.
This is or will fast become a cold case. The year make is approaching. There are no solid leads….everyone is just guessing LE has some. I have seen no progress in the investigation. I do not have the attitude of “trust LE competence” Sorry, I cant do that. I have seen enough cases to know some in LE are morons.
Bonanza, None of us know what LE has or does not have so we can not make any judgements based on that info. They do say often that Misty holds the key, I would presume to believe that she knows more than she is telling and maybe more, but until there is an arrest or she talks we will never know if that is the case.Also this is not just PCSO case it also involves FDLE and FBI investigators.imho
BugOut,
That was a really well written post. And I’m glad to read how you feel, but I have two questions. 1. How do you feel about Crystal’s tattoo that she got around the same time? And 2. How is one suppose to act when their child goes missing? (There is NO handbook)
There’s a couple of things you post about what Ronald Cummings has done, or did after Haleigh went missing. The trip to NY was to get his daughers name out there, and if I were asked to go, to get NATIONAL MEDIA EXPOSURE if my daughter were missing, I’d probably go too. Would you? I see others getting on the morning shows in these cases, and I’m assuming they needed to fly to NY. Is it ok for them to do this or does it make them look guilty of something too?
If he married her for fear and intimidation, how in the world did he just let her walk right out and divorce her? Wouldn’t he still be worried about her telling something? Is he STILL holding her in fear? I can’t see it.
Until Ronald Cummings tells us, HIMSELF why he married Misty, I don’t think we will EVER know the full truth. I know what I’ve been told, but the answer isn’t “good enough” for some.
Believe it or not, the PI HIMSELF, hired by the Sheffield side of the family told us months and months ago.
Tobias,
i have said before and I will say again—LE HAS PUBLICALLY SAID THEY HAVE NO LEADS. What more do we need????
Bunny, I only disagree with your last sentence.
Cobra was not hired by any of the Sheffields. He was hired by an unknown benefactor out of Miami and I know for a fact that a preacher asked him in the beginning to help find her.
Kim P. was brought in as pro bono(not paid) help that means she was not hired by anyone.
Art Harris was paid by Cobra $5000 to do audio and video while Cobra investigated. I just dont want anyone to start rumours about why Cobra was there, he has always said it was all about Haleigh and no one else. imho
Putnam County Sheriff’s Office Lt. Johnny Greenwood told Firstcoastnews.com Thursday that some new information has come to light about what happened in the days leading up to Haleigh’s disappearance – as well as what happened the night she vanished.
However, Greenwood would not elaborate because he said he did not want to jeopardize the case.
This was the last statement by LE does this lead you to believe they have no leads?
True that Tobias. In the beginning. And yes, he always always said he was there for HALEIGH CUMMINGS. But what about the check for a dollar or whatever it was that Ruby Kanger wrote to retain him?
Bunny, What are you exactly trying to infer about Cobra?imho
Paid bloggers? Where do I sign up??
I may be proven wrong on this, but I still do not believe Ron did anything to hurt Haleigh. I agree with some of the other posters. Everyone grieves differently. I don’t believe there is a right or wrong way to grieve. You have to do whatever get’s you through the day. One day at a time. In my opinion, he acted very much like a Father who lost his daughter. I’m sure I would be angry too. Sometimes it’s just easier to be mad than to be hurt. I’m still back & forth with Misty. I know a lot of people made a big deal about the way Ron spoke to Misty on the 911 call, but I believe that’s a normal response also. Yes, Ron has done and said same strange things, but I am not going to judge him. If I were in his position, I don’t know what I’d do. I’m sure I’d be out of my mind with worry and grief. I hope the entire family get’s some answers and some type of closure, one way or the other soon. It has to be a chore just to get out of bed every day and try to act as normal as possible for the sake of Jr.
Can’t wait to hear the show today. I think I’m an hour behind, so it should be at 4:00 for me. (I think)
Have a great day all!
“Information” does not make a solid lead. Noticed the way LE made the announcement. They did not state they have “leads” in the case. New information means something to check up on, leads mean something that has checked out to be true, and is “LEADING” LE in a particular direction.
And Tobias, my friend, I promise you, I would not do anything in this world to start or help fuel a rumor. I am asking above in sincerity. I was thinking later, after Reverend Grund and the unknown benefactor. Later, as in maybe April? Ohmygod this has gone on so long, it’s almost if you don’t have your notes in front of you, well…you get it. THIS HAS TAKEN WAYYY TOO LONG. 🙂

Not infering anything about Cobra. At. All. If I had something to infer, I’d just say it. 🙂
Only life insurance policies I’ve ever heard about, rumors, is Crystal had policies on the kids.
Vaq! (((You))) I wouldn’t mind being paid too! How do you find a job that like?

=======
Tobias, Tommy was never charged with anything from that night as nothing has ever been put on the court records. Misty and Mrs. Sykes did to go PCSO and file reports but outside of that I have no idea why the courts waited 5 mos. to post that about Lisa.
I don’t know bunny, I’ve been posting for almost a year on this case and never saw a dime. I feel so cheated. Who do we send a bill too? lol
Well I have my theory and I am still open to looking into other peoples ideas. I do believe this will get solved but it will take time. I
do not believe the parents are involved and if they were it would be indirectly by just being aquantances with who did this.I am more under the belief that she is dead but would like it not to be true also. imho
Vaq. Could the dates be messed up and this was
possibly the scanner call we were told about last week? Just hope they clarify it on the show today.
I doubt it Tobias because it specifically says PCSO and Aug 5th. I still would like to know whY it was never put online till 5 months later and if Lisa was charged was Hank and Tommy charged and if so why it hasn’t been put online after 5 months. Just weird.
I cant really believe the underground grow house theory because of her asthma. Anything underground is going to be humid and therefore would contain mold etc. not good for asthma.imho
I wish there was enough evidence and information out in the public forum for me to formulate a theory. I just dont see a whole lot there.
I hope I am wrong, and this case does get solved. I have just seen too many high profile cases that, after years, still remain unsolved. The common denominator is what comes out of LE—-declaring suspects soon after the disappearence, then never finding evidence that would convict these suspects—- instead of finding the evidence first, then using the evidence to convict a suspect. LE sometimes does things backwards, and I have seen it lead to unsolved cases. And, unfortunately, I have seen this happen in this case.
It also does not show up on charges for the last 3 years. Why was it hidden? Under the law it should have been posted on the PCSO site.jmo
Oh, yes! My link expert and internet extrordinaire found the links about Sheffields/Cobra. Well, Ruby Kanger to be exact, and it was much later Tobias, from when Cobra orginally came in.
I don’t know if I can post the link, but Jan can hit me on the head if I’m not suppose to. 🙂

I agree, tobias. Why hide it? What else is being hid??
What I see is uncooperative people not coming forward out of fear, mistrust of PCSO, and some people leading them on goose chases. Remember who the people they are dealing with are not really credible witnesses or just to involved in their own criminal behavior to care. If you snitch you pay in their worlds.Look what happened to the boy who was set on fire, that is their world sad as it is. jmho
You also have to wonder would you like your entire life opened to public scrutiny like Roy Kronk? People see this in the media and feel that is what will happen if they come forward with info. imho
That is a good point. There is a lack of credible witnesses. If this case did go to trial, who in the world would a jury believe?
Bonanza, That is why I believe LEis taking so long they dont want the person to walk out on a technicality and you only get one chance in a murder trial. imho
I hope they pressure Lisa and Hank to see if they know anything. When you are 40 years old 10 years in prison can be a life sentence, just saying. jmho
Gotto go for now, listen to the show I think its gonna be a good one today. Hope they let us all know how Cobra is doing.
sure wasn’t much on about Haleigh.
Who was that new guy today trying to insert?He sounded like he was on an ego trip bragging and knew nothing.I only listened to last part of show,he was kind of annoying.
Just for your reading pleasure who disputed the fact about Prescription pills being Monitored in Fl..

Incredibly, Florida has no law to track the prescriptions written, so it is possible for someone to go to multiple clinics the same day and fill one prescription after another.

Drug-seekers travel hundreds of miles from Kentucky, Ohio, West Virginia, Tennessee and elsewhere — not for sun and surf, but the allure of easy-to-get prescription drugs and the anonymity accorded them in these typically cash-and-carry transactions
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/opinion/os-ed-pill-mills-010610,0,5300416.story
I could go on and on as there are hundred if not thousands of these places but i won’t..
It is only within the last year have they been trying to “change things”…However it still doesn’t stop Ma and Pop Pharmacies of filling these prescriptions…Plus they can charge more. So its a win/win situation for all involved Druggies, Dr’s and Pharmacies..
Do you mean with news?There is no news,people are just trying to keep HaLeigh’s name out there.I don’t know though,that might be what brings HaLeigh home,if she’s hidden,that is.
Haven’t listened yet, but I’m about to.
That was Armando.
Thanks Jan. Simon, Denny, TJ, & Armando! Very good show!!! Very informative. I also want to give a shout out to the people who called in.
Good question Peggy, glad you were able to get through this week! That was something that had not occured to me (Whether a crime scene would be processed differently depending upon whether the victim was believed to be alive when last there or deceased)
To the caller who gave the info about chronic pain mamgement: THANK YOU! I have tried to tell people for months now that those Fentanyl pops would be VERY enticing to a child by thier sweetness. Also thank you for clearing up the difference between Oxies & Roxies. Makes a lot of sense. I, personally, value the information shared very much.
To the third caller: Thanks for your information as well. I agree that the GPs are more likely to be the root of the problem then the pain clinics where there is more monitoration & sensabilites. I had a friend that was rear-ended while riding on the back of her husband’s very expensive Harley. She ended up on the hood of the persons car and had an enormous amount of pain for an extended period of time. After 2 or 3 scripts for pain meds she was referred to a pain management center. There she got physical therapy and was withdrawn from pain management. She had a good prognosis of recovery with no long term effects so she was told that she should push through some of the pain and day by day it would lessen and it DID! Of course she was angry at first and felt like she was being singled out or discriminated against somehow, but weeks later she was so happy that she had been pushed in that direction as she recovered fully and didn’t become addicted to anything. On the other hand I have a cousin who had minor back problems on and off since his high school football days. In his early 30’s he had another flare-up and was perscribed Loritabs for a prolonged period of time by his physician. About a year, I think, maybe longer. He was of course over the minor flare-up by then but guess what? He had a severe oxycodone addiction. What did he do about it? He sued his Dr for over prescribing it to him (even though he lied in appointments about how much pain he had been in) for so long. He was awarded $1.3 million dollars!!! This is not a joke! It really happened! The Dr’s malpractice insurance paid out/settled.
The topics mentioned are VERY relavant to this case! If not for Haleigh, then at least for some of those who had daily access to her. It might also stand as a motive for who took he and why. It has been suggested (by PCSO, no less) that one of these drugs ended Haleigh’s life, due to other’s negligence. It happens, maybe not this time, but it does happen. That’s why I refuse to dismiss the Joe Pytcho senario.
Still no word on what is going on with Lisa & Tommy? I think that it is definately related. Think about this, they are BOTH looking at a good amount of time behind bars. Let the feeding fenzy begin. We have been waiting for this. They will do anything to get themselve “better situated” even tell on or lie about Misty. Sometimes I just wish that LE would tell what piece they are searching for so we could help them find it.
Is it just me that understands that TJ has WAY moe info then he is telling us about due to ethics & practices? If he goes blabbing all of the info LE has given him so far, his professionalism would be in question & his reputation severely damaged. I can’t wait to hear what all he does know though!!!
Armando; I liked hearing your perspective. I think sometimes it takes a person with actual knowledge of the drug lifestyle to really connect the dots for those who have no experience with such things, personal or familial/friends. I hope you return again soon.
This is how most probably even the Croslin’s get their pills..
http://www.hulu.com/watch/100279/vanguard-the-oxycontin-express
Cobra was actually hired by a source connected with the Sheffield’s that is a fact however irrelevant to the main issue, what happened to Haleigh? What did Anthony do right off the bat? She told of a Nanny who took the child. A person who is capable of carrying out a crime such as child murder serves their own self. Misty could of done this by now she could say she gave her away to a couple at a park. She takes the hardest route, for what? the fun of it all. LE were hasty to blame in pressure and often in cases like this it is who was last with the person. Just tonight I watched a show on an elderly woman brutally beaten murdered & raped in her home her elderly husband was there and hurt but survivied. The LE could could not figure it out who came in, no forced entry so they blamed the father and even told the kids their dad did it, minor issues in their conclusion. He was in his 80’s had 2 strokes that year was paralyzed on one side of his body and got around via a walker. 5 years later it was looked at again it turned out to be a neighbours son who had actually came over to the home when they carried the woman’s body out and gave condolences to the kids. LE needs to stop blaming the last person & they need to stop absorbing false faces of God “good Christian folk” married couples as no reason to look into the home when they are called out. Time and time again they do this only to follow it up with “We are sorry, we made mistakes, we are learning, this is a new thing” it’s been new since the beginning of man. Mandatory search of home and all vehicles, sheds, barns,tents, under ground anything when called out no matter how frivolous the call may seem and no matter how righteous the people may appear. Mandatory straight up same same for all and immediate firing of any Policing officer who does not comply 100%. To often personal beliefs, ideas of what a predator looks like, laziness and stereotyping by LE is causing the deaths of children or prolonged captivity usually for sexual slavery, this is no longer acceptable. With that said I believe who ever went in and took Haleigh either lives close by or had access to an in door premises close by or took her in a vehicle. I don’t believe any one would take her in her under garment and walk down the road with her and that go unnoticed. This is a process of elimination but hardly if using common sense is Misty the only one to look. The young girl in Texas “Amber” IMHO she is alive.
God Bless Haleigh and all her families
Dusty Rose, you made some good points. I especially liked the mistake of LE sterotyping, not questioning the above reproach type citizens for appearances sake kind of profiling. I do believe as you this has caused many children to be victims, harmed and murdered due to preconceived ideas, prejudices and closed mindedness.
LE needs to look at everyone. Due the process of elimination. Follow the money and motive trails. The answers are there along with the actions of everyone since the removal of Haleigh from the home. Even neighbors, strangers and the rso’s they cleared so darn quick. The a/c guy comes to mind again, ugh!
Enjoyed the show, had to leave early had company arrive. I was gonna hide like Vaquera told me too, but I chickened out, hehehehe nite all
Well, I’d say that Dienda Thompson isn’t exactly wealthy and she is no longer married, had a live-in boyfriend, and some racy pics on her myspace, drug propeganda pics, mentions how her BF’s favorite movies are pornos & yet she isn’t considered a suspect or involved in any way. So I don’t think it is across the board profiling. Another thing is that, statistically speaking, financial status is a major player in the known abuse cases. Yes, sometimes rich/wealthy people murder their children. There was a Dr in another state, just before Christmas, who killed his 12 yr old son. The wife had severe lacerations to her hands and arms from trying to defend herself and their son. She finally ran screaming next door to the neighbor’s for help as the man brutally murdered the boy. It just more often happens in families of a lower finacial level. Professionals say that they believe that the pressures of less money & resources has a direct correlation to the abuse/murders.
Also, cases where the those who are questioned, lie or tell half-truths & LE has or can get verifiable proof are ALWAYS going to be more scrutinized. If it’s proven to be anyone other than D Snodgrass how many are going to feel bad about discussing him, his case, and remarks about his guilt in Haleigh’s abduction? Now, some are saying that his wife/GF may have been the one to take the pics & framed him. The 2 girls no longer want to testify. I don’t know if that’s due to not wanting to go on the stand, or what. That case is falling apart if they don’t. He will NOT be a SO. His tracking device will be removed and he will be totally free and presumed innocent. Now, I’m not saying he is, cause I don’t know. I’m just saying legally he will have a clean record. I say all of this to point out that many have huge issues with the Misty being scrutinized but have no problem directing that scrutiny towards someone who may have absolutely nothing to do with Haleigh’s abduction. They scream “there’s no proof…” That’s right, there’s no proof of anyone taking Haleigh other than she is missing. For this fact, everyone is SUSPECT, especially those who LE state is hiding something with regard to the child’s disappearance. Others will then be scrutinized due to how they associate with or react to that person. It’s unavoidable. Why would LE keep releasing those statements: “Misty is key, If anyone has proof of her where abouts that night, Misty is still not telling all she knows” if they don’t have some kind of proff to back it up? Why would they even want to catch Misty only to let the real person go free? Collusion with Sheffields? Maybe but a real long shot. Would putting pressure on Misty flush out the real person if it’s not her or she doesn’t know more? I don’t believe the public pressure theory. That only happens when LE jumps to make an arrest & obtain a conviction. That hasn’t happened here. They are actually taking their time to get the proof they need to make a conviction stick. That SHOULD be a good thing. Who ever did take Haleigh should PAY and anyone who aided or assisted or held back information should be punished as well. No matter whom that might be.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone have an issue with Misty being scrutinized. It’s been a long time since I saw anyone object to Ron being scrutinized. And it’s only recently that Crystal & friends and family have come under any scrutiny at all.
Just speaking for myself, I very much hope that LE is scrutinizing (or has) a lot of people (including but not limited to R, M and C).
Goodmorning all, It is unfortunate that everyone surrounding Haleigh is considered to be scrutinized, but to me they all are a suspect until proven otherwise. Ron has stated that his personal life should not be relevant to his daughters disappearance. Well, unfortunate for him it does. He was living with a minor in which he started dating when she was 16 and has drug issues. The enviroment of the child plays key to who Haleigh came in contact with prior to her disappearance. He also was the primary custodian of this little girl at the time of her disappearance. He just had poor judgement. I can understand why these two come under fire more so than the others. We cannot rule out the maternal side either. Although, I personally do not think it was Crystal herself who had anything to do with Haleighs disappearance. I still believe the answers to what happened to Haleigh lye in Satsuma. I just continue to pray that Haleigh is found alive and well. I do agree with Lesa that PCSO have insinuated that Haleigh may of died due to a drug overdose. I am praying that PCSO find what they need to convict those involved with little Haleighs disappearance and I also believe that there will be several that get hauled off to prison.
Thnk u all for tunning in. Touchy subjects but I think it went well. Thanks to Simon, Denny,TJ & Jan for having me. And please donate to th Haiti relive fund by trxting “yele” to 501 501. I know some don’t care but there’s children suffering and dead on th streets. Let’s do it for them y’all. They deserve it. Thnx
Hi, Armando!
There are a number of places and ways to contribute to help the quake victims in Haiti.
The Red Cross is one of the big names.
What is “trxting “yele” to 501 501?” Who or what is that and what do they do?
TIA
Hi, looking for justice!
I’m sure I have not read or heard every word that LE has said about the case but in going over earlier statements recently I noticed how often LE said they are (have to) assume she is alive. I missed where they said she may have died to a drug overdose. Assuming LE has a purpose for pretty much everything they say to the public, I wonder why they would say that? To me, one potentially negative outcome might be that it could stop people from continuing to look for her. Anyway, I just wonder why they’d say that. But I’m just seeing the statement out of the context it was said in so maybe that’s where the explanation is. But do you happen to know or have a thought about that?
By texting yele to 501 501 on ur cell phone. Charges 5$ to ur phone bill and it is donated to th quake relief. It’s one of many outlets. If u want to donate more th Red Cross would b th best option.
Has anyone seen the movie Taken? I am glad that some in Hollywood are producing movies to bring awareness to sex rings and it does inform the youth in this country in a entertaining way. This way I believe it stays in there minds should they be in a situation where there may be danger.imho
Thank you, Armando. Who or what organization is running that? Probably one of the phone providers?
I’ve never seen that statement either m2c. I’ve always heard them say it was a non stranger abduction and they believe Haleigh is alive.
I cant remember the show I saw on discovery awhile back, it was a documentary about Roxies and other drugs and there were teens talking about one of their friends who had died. They were candid about what happened and had sworn off drugs because of it.Evidently this teen had become addicted and made abad choice and mixed drugs and died. It is so sad that the drug companies influence doctors to prescribe these drugs as much as possible when they know how addictive they are. To me it is pure greed and selfish not to consider where these drugs may end up. in my honest opinion
Tobias great point! But after a year we cannot help to feel like maybe she’s gone away. Ppl need to b held accountable for ths little girls neglect and by questioning these ppl it’s how I only see resolution to this. It’s going to b a year now, we’ve spent a year looking for her, now it’s time for answers!!!!!!
M2c
hope all is well. I believe it’s AT&T and Verizon. I have AT&T and tht was my first way of donating.
Something also occured to me when the panel said LE was cracking down on the pain management places, whats going to happen when all the drug addicted people can no longer get a supply? Is it going to cause a backlash of crime? Remember the supply and demand rules, when there is high demand and small supply prices go up, thus more crime to get money to buy high priced drugs. I f not handled correctly this could be bad. jmo
Tobias, I agree. From the other perspective the whole drug abuse thing ticks me off because it sometimes makes it harder for people who really need the Rx to get it. So once again the criminals are allowed to “run the world” and the good honest people pay the price (are punished in some way).
The mention of oxy that I recall was in Nay Nay’s letter from jail where she claimed that Misty and Haleigh were at a party and Haleigh took some. LE was pretty PO’d about that. And LE also said that Nay Nay told them later that she wasn’t even at that party.
Mistys father was arrested for Oxy and hydrocodine prescription fraud. He claimed several times that his meds were stolen. He should not still be taking them for over 11 months, he only had a broken leg for petes sake. Those drugs are for extreme pain management such as cancer. There are other pain management drugs that are less addictive that should have been prescribed.
Countless people who I have known have had and died from cancer, one was my father. He was told that he could only have a certain amount of pain killers because they were addictive.
When you are terminal what makes the difference? Evidently Florida doctors hand them out like candy? Just deplorible behavior on both sides. imho
Thank you, Armando. I learned that with AT&T you can use your cell phone to:
“call” 501501; then enter the key word yele. That will donate $5.
Or you can “call” 24357 and use enter the key word give. That will also donate $5
To donate $10 you can “call” 900999 and use the key word Haiti.
(Sorry for the OT)
Goodmorning m2c, I was agreeing with Lesa that the Joe pytko scenario and the letters from Nay Nay. There was also a big rumor that swept through Putnam County about 2 weeks prior to the fight between Ron and Tommy when they went to pick up Misty from GGSYKES. The rumor at that time also insinuated that Haleigh had died from a drug overdose. This was overheard in a doctors office. The person was speaking openly and said that LE was looking at Ron and Misty as the suspects. They said le felt she was first put in the dumpster then removed. This person claimed to be related to one of the detectives. The rumor also stated that Haleigh had been found and thats how they knew she had overdosed and they had sent out tox screens to find out what kind of drug and how much was in her system. I guess they would then decide if were accidental or intentional. Le did come out and denounce the rumor, but not until after Ron and Tommys brawl. Then you have Misty stating she believes Haleigh is alive, but sends them into the woods to search where they find a fake rose. I personally want Haleigh found alive and I believe even if le are assuming that Haleigh has passed they still want to list her as missing until they get more concrete evidence that foul play did in fact take her life.
Thank you, looking for justice. I understand now. I’m sure (I’m hoping) that LE has been looking into all the possibilities since the beginning and of course that possibility is one of the first a lot of people thought of considering Haleigh’s family and environment.
Now, just to find out what really happened and who’s responsible and where is Haleigh? (sigh)
I hope they find out soon. I will check in later. Company just arrived. See you soon
I just was researching Roxies and oxicodone.
Roxies are direct pain med. moriphine opiate.
Oxicodone is time released but addicts crush and snort like cocaine to get a higher dose into their systems.
It occured to me that this could create a dust by crushing these pills.Anyone with asthma can attest to a low tolerence for dust.
This med also depresses the respitory functions in patients. If Haleigh were even close to where the pils were being crushed I believe that could have affected her breathing.
It was just a thought I had while researching.
I am also in the belief that an oxicodone or roxie addict would be alot like someone addicted to morphine. This addict would likely do anything when withdrawl starts. We know of several incidents that would relate to someone being addicted and showing the behaviors of an addict. Addicts do not have morals when it comes to getting the next fix.imho
Oxycodone withdrawal duration begins within six hours of the last dose and can be seen up to one week. The oxycodone symptoms are very spine chilling as the patient undergoing oxycodone withdrawal symptoms suffers a lot. The common oxycodone withdrawal symptoms are:
Abdominal cramps
Diarrhea
Vomiting
Intense pain in the body
Tremors
Excessive sweating
Anxiety
Insomnia
Muscle cramps with spasms
Body chills
Goose bumps
Paranoia
Agitated and aggressive behavior
Increased heart rate
Hyperactivity
Dilated pupils
Runny nose and eye
Depression
Loss of appetite
A patient or drug addict undergoes a very difficult withdrawal phase that makes it very difficult for him or her to terminate the use of oxycodone completely. Know more on drug addiction.
This is some of the research I did.The withdrawl program is Methodone treatment like a heroin addict. Really sound horrible.imho
Tobias you are correct about how they crush and snort oxycontins. It is like cocaine; which is an upper. You are also correct about them getting their next fix. They show all the same signs as someone on cocaine. They talk alot, their eyes are wide and the pupils dialated. They can stay up along time with no sleep, but when they crash; they crash. It is sad to say but I have a sisternlaw that is hooked on pharmecuticles. Her eyes glow when she is on the roxies or oxycontin and yes she has been in trouble for doctor shopping. She goes to a pain clinic, but she takes methocodone I believe that helps remove perscriptions you should not have in your system when it is time for them ( the pain clinic ) to test you. I have heard that there are people traveling to Miami to get what they need. These folks are desperate people. How sad that they live by drugs to stay awake and some take downers to go to sleep. They are drug induced around the clock. They cannot deal with life as a reality. Truely sad.
Tobias great post on the withdrawal symptoms. We must of been tyoing at the same time. I knew the drug I mentioned was something like methodone. Thanks for the correct med for the withdrawals. My sisternlaw only takes these when it is time for her to be tested. If I knew who her pain clinic was I would turn her in.
Justice, The point I was trying to make is that someone addicted to Roxies would do anything if they were faced with the withdrawl symptoms stated. Many are reported to rob, steal,cheat and perhaps murder while the drug is driving them to get more. And with the problems reported in the Croslin family with Doctor shopping one has to question what it was like before Papa got in the wreck and got the prescription. How were they getting the drugs before Feb. 8th(the night Hank sr. got in the car wreck and was prescribed oxicodone)
Its just a question that has me bothered.imho
If Misty had taken drugs the night that Haleigh disappeared, even if earlier in the evening, wouldn’t she have shown signs that could have been detected by LE when they came to the home at 3:30 am? Or would they have been so focused on Haleigh’s disappearance that they would not have paid that much attention to Misty’s condition? Or believed any odd behavior was due to being upset by the events of that night? Is it possible that LE may have suspected drug use by Misty but it wasn’t obvious enough to have tested her? This may have been documented in parts of the police report that have not been released.
Tobias, I agree with you. Well, the answers I got when I asked thse questions were they buy them off the street. Whether they used their hard earned money or stole something to sell to get the money. They will do whatever necessary from what I have been told from folks over in Putnam County. I was also told for those who recieve these scripts they sale a portion of their pills for profit as well as enough to get their next script in order to keep the supply going.
Aligoo that is a very good question. I wish we were privy to the rest of the police documentation. Perhaps that is where the info came from that noone had slept in the bed. That the evidence they have do not match the story Misty has given. The evidence tells a whole different story.
Where the info came from that the bed was not slept in was Tim Miller. I have my doubts on much of what he said.
Misty was a minor at the time, thus any drug test would have to be done with parental authorization unless she was suspected of a crime. Oxicodone is tested with a urine test because thats how it leaves the body. And LE had already established that she had been on the party weekend with NayNay and had traces in her system from then. That would not prove she had any in her system from that particular night. She looked doped up to me, if you look at all the video from beginning to end it is apparent there is a difference in her appearence,speech,and manners. but thats just my observations
Legally LE could not question Misty without a parent being present. That is why Chelsea went to get Lisa at the hospital before coming to Satsuma that day. Otherwise any information she could have given could not be used in court. That is the law everywhere in the United States.imho
gotto go for now see you all later. pray for justice for haleigh and if shes alive that someone finds her.
Interesting info, Tobias – thanks! I do hope it would have been noted in the police report if Misty was showing signs of possible recent drug use. Based on observations from a trained and experienced police officer, maybe this can be used as evidence in court.
Does anyone know if LE took Rons Hard drive?
In the videos of the MH you can see a computer at the bottom of the mattress near the master bathroom. Just curious.
From Mistys information on the voice stress test she says Tommy was already involved with drugs before any of this happened and was acting strange. If you can believe anything she says? Just an observation. Seeing as now we know this may have been the truth for once.
jmo
The LE who stated that Haleigh OD on Oxys would be those who were speaking with/interragating Nay-Nay when she said
“The police told me they have a sworn affidavid from Joe Pytcho about Haleigh ODing on Oxies” paraphrase.
So who’s lying there? Nay-Nay in that LE never told her that? LE in that they never had that affidavid? LE in that they made the whole thing up just to get Nay-Nayto tell them a whole different senario? Huh? (Looks around questioningly)
SO YES, LE has said to SOMEONE that the believe that Haleigh overdosed on Oxies, they just have said it to the public at large. Need a link?
if Joe Psycho(that’s what the locals call him) said that then he was lying and if LE did say that to Nay Nay then they were lying to her which they are prone to do to get info. That’s not a new police tactic.
Does it really make sense to you that they would construct that theory out of “whole-cloth” just to implicate Misty? If so, did it work? Not yet! They are still tryingto find concrete proof of some kind, verifying that Joe P info just might be it.
So who’s lying? Joe? LE? Nay-Nay? Anyone but the last person to see her?
There’s link comming in moderation that explains why LE on scene can not always decide who is high or not. It also contains a link from an EMT site that talks about pediatric overdose on Oxycodone, the symptoms, and prevelance. Almost 10,000 childen from 2003 – 2006. That is roughly 3,333 kids per year. I imagine that number has doubled in recent years. Is it so darn hard to believe that it could have happened to Haleigh? Especially since MANY around her daily life was using that same substance? Misty, Crystal, TC, HC, LC, and a host of others I’m sure?
Why hasn’t one person come forward to claim that 35K, if true? That’s a lot of money for a someone in that county. Greg P took a polygraph in Feb, he said he passed. He said he only saw Misty for that short time that weekend and that was it.
Armando said,in January 18th, 2010 at 11:37 am
—————
Haleigh is NOT gone. Shes as alive as we are.
He also states in his interview that he and Misty were to get together Monday night but he did not hear from her Sunday afternoon /night so when he heard about Haleigh’s abduction he started to distance himself from the situation. His own words. I’m sure if A Harris made it all up G page would have been shouting from the rooftops! So no one can claim AH made it all up.
About the $35,000 reward… You can’t spend it if you’re dead. You can barely buy a new car with that amount. You MIGHT be able to buy a MH brand new or a piece of property but it’s not like a huge amount of money and if they did turn on someone their drug contacts would freeze them out. WHo else would know but someone who was at the party using the same drugs? Ever try to go cold turkey off of heroin, synthetic or otherwise? I haven’t but just nicotine withdrawls are enough to make one craxed (this I do know). SInce nicotine addiction has been compared to heroin addiction, so far as difficulty of discontinueing use.
AnneInTN;
Please, enlighten us…..where is she? How are you sure of her status? Also please enlighten the LE to this fact so they can bring her home. If you don’t trust the locals please contact the FBI.
HOlly,
I cant say a word on here.
Please send letters AGAIN to Attorney General in FL again.
AnneInTn: Please call the AG directly with what you know. Seriously. Time’s awasting.
My post with the AG’s web addy went into moderation I guess. You can google Florida Attorney General and on that page is a place to click to send an email.
There is a place on that page to click on to Email Attorney General Bill McCollum

Quit being a drama queen. If you REALLY know anything, it is VERY EASY TO ANNONOMOUSLY REPORT A TIP TO LE. Dont come on here and drop hints that you know something if you dont. We have had enough trolls on these sites, and dont need any more.
AnneInTn:
You can remain anonymous and call Crime Stoppers at 1-888-277-8477
That’s bound to get a faster results than a bunch of us writing.
Already did Guys.

I am not a dam troll.You all should know that by now.
Good for you, AnneINTN! I hope it is a solid lead.
Apologies, but when someone writes such a hint, and does not seem to be following through with reporting it to LE, I have to question the validity. I do have my doubts (though I would be ecstatic to be wrong) that Haleigh is alive, and I still question what information you have that says she is alive.
Lets all be friends here. I want her found same as you all do. Sorry if I offended anyone. Everything I find I send it in.
I apologize too.
Sometimes you cant just post here what u know. Understand? I am very sorry I did.
I am just checking in and I wanted to tell you all, Thank you for being here for these children. They need us all. God bless you all!
Night everyone,
Jan Barrett
You posted nothing but a statement, which may or may not be true. I agree, any really sensitive information needs to be communicated to LE, not posted on a blog—FOR OBVIOUS REASONS.
FOR REASONS is right. And TY Jan. I want be posting anymore till this case is over.
You know searching around,I happen to read a comment from a poster on SM who said Brandon O,Misty’s cousin is living in Tn with Brandon Frye’s aunt.This is not true Brandon O is still in Michigan and it’s Brandon Fryer,not Frye,and is in prison for two years,starting last October.Brandon Fryer was the “gangsta boy”,friend of Joe’s,who we have not found out if he actually did go to Florida,or not.There is so much misinformation that people post,it’s hard to seperate fact from fiction.
AnneInTN;
I’m sorry if you felt called out. What I meant was IF you can’t tell us then PLEASE tell any LE agency you feel you can trust and who will take it seriously! I pray to GOD you are right! I just don’t want to be crushed if it’s found to be not true. Can you understand how we feel?
Plus,Brandon O just got out of jail around November and was in Michigan at Christmas,according to his gf.She has the pics on her myspace.He might have married the girl by now,they were getting married.The SM poster said Brandon’s been in Tenn. for quite some time,nope,he was in jail in Michigan.And he’s still a gangsta,or all those party pics from Christmas are staged.LOL
ANd yes, there is some stuff that is known by many that can’t be revealed for several reasons. I do understand that.

Haleigh is NOT gone. Shes as alive as we are
—————————-
You have that right, Anne.
And to whomever said she was a troll, she’s far from a troll so back off.
It is really difficult for anyone with a heart to sit and wait for an answer to what happened to little HaLeigh. I know everyone wants information, is she alive, where is she, is she coming home and when? With the sad anniversary of her abduction looming ahead I think we are all hyper-sensitive but we need to remember that we are all here for a reason, to help the little ones who cannot help themselves, who cannot speak for themselves.
Let’s do what Anne suggested and write letters, send emails and try again to get someone’s attention. It worked the last time we hit them with letters. Maybe we can get a bigger response this time.
I really feel she is alive. This has become a mission to save the children, not just HaLeigh but all of them.
I have read enough of this story to have a knee jerk reaction to claims that are too good to be true. For those who “know” Haleigh is alive, provide proof to LE. Not here on this blog, for crying out loud. I will be watching to see if Haleigh is recovered.
Anyone see Simon’s article Aliens, Rosewll & Nazi’s. You may think that it has nothingto do with this case, but then again, it just might. LOL!

LE has always said they believe she is alive and so did Kim Picazio. What proof is there that she is not alive? None, no forensic evidence at all.
I think everyone is still sort of hanging on to the LawShrink episode and that’s why so many feel guarded when someone posts a comment such as Anne’s. I am holding on to the thought/hope that HaLeigh is alive and well.
And not to be mean… but, AnneInTN is NOT a LawShrinker, or troll!
Coutndown to 1 year Anniversary of Haleigh’s Abduction
21 days, 23 hours…..
Hollys Gmom,
Thanks for the link. Interesting message.
AnneInTn:
I really hope you come back. It’s clear you care very much about Haleigh. I understand why you responded as you did. I don’t think anyone needs to prove why they believe Haleigh is alive. And I sure would not want anyone to prove the opposite!
If you want us to write anyone again just let us know (re: Iowamom’s post above).
(A general comment on the topic, not specific to you, Anne)
What worries me about statements like “we’re getting close” (LawShrink – well-intentioned or not) or that someone “knows” something (especially when a particular area is mentioned) is: that could alarm the kidnapper. Then what could happen? They’d move her or worse.
I know it’s a very long shot that whoever could be responsible is reading this board but word can get out to all kinds of people and places. So that’s the main reason that concerns me. Haleigh’s safety. What and when I know or think or hope is not important.
Personally, I don’t care about my hopes being raised or dashed. I’m the only one who can control my hopes and if it helped bring Haleigh home people could slam my hopes all day long.
In fact if someone really does have – or thinks they have – a real lead, then I would hope to be among the last to know. “Last” as in after LE has found her. That’s much better than tipping off the kidnapper.
PS. The kind of statements and claims I’m referring to are like the ones discussed last night and are very different from our discussions of theories or talking about where family members and others live.
One small thing just rather stuck with me today, Bugout.. you made reference to RC’s repeated rageful incidents, chasing people in cars (heard his engine revving past CJ (althought you wrote TJ) that night you could hear the pedal to the metal) the fury and anger on the 911 call instead of outright FEAR.
My question, unless you were there, having actual knowlege of any of these occurances.. That you point only in the direction of Ron..
Would you be willing to Swear that all that was said was the absolute truth out of CJ’s Mouth?
Very easy to point fingers at one specific person when all your interested in is the gossip you hear.. Do you think that CJ had a good reason to set a fire at his home? And that he told the truth when he was arrested and convicted.. Do you think that CJ had brought a gun into play in this incidence without the thought of using it?? Why would he be asking if he could legally shoot Ron?? If Ronald did not have a gun with him that night.. then CJ lied!! If he would lie about one thing, why wouldn’t he be lying about another.. You need to go back and really check the story..
How do you know what really occured?
You speak of this Precious Gift from Crystal to Ron as per Haleigh..
Well, let me ask you where this following comment came in: “Why should I have to pay support for those kids, after all I gave birth to them”!
When ask on National TV, “What time does Haleigh get out of School”? The response, “I don’t know, I don’t live down there”!
Why in any of the videos of interviews, are there never tears in Crystal’s eyes?
You find terrible fault towards Ron, in his emotions, showing Anger first, Emotional collapse, Tears.. you claim cannot be real..
Well, how did you react when your Child was stolen from her bed?? Oh, maybe you haven’t gone through this terror! But, of course you automatically know how people should react, Correct?
If all that you have is passed on the trash you have read and the gossip, you are doing yourself and injustice.. Because is not making you look like you’ve done your homework.. Gossip is a terrible thing, especially when people cannot see the truth, they feed on Gossip and they hate because of the gossip.. Somewhere down the line.. they will learn the truth.. Because truth does have a big Habit of coming out.. I hope when it does, your a big enough person to look those in the eye that you have been so vile towards, and ask their forgiveness.. And just maybe they will be a much better person than you have projected and they will forgive you..
When you call CrimeStoppers, they direct your call to PCSO. Just FYI. 🙂 And it took the lady in Georgia over an hour and a half on the phone to get someone to take a report. I believe over an hour of that was on hold to PCSO.
Well I wonder how many of the media will show up in Satsuma on the 10th of Feb.? Will any of the people involved in this case show up and have a vigil or memorial? It should be very eye opening that day to see what will be said and who wont be there to say anything. At the 6 birthday LE had alot to say will they have a presser? Will the parents show up? Will Misty be there with the Cummings family? The christmas vigil was not attended by certain people and where are the towns people?
I was disappointed that the citizens of Satsuma did nothing on Christmas for Haleigh or her families? Are they ready to move on as a town and if so do they feel safe for their children? IT JUST BAFFLES ME, WE HAVENT GIVEN UP BUT FROM WHAT I SEE SATSUMA HAS.JMO
You know what I’m thinking about today? Correct me if I’m wrong, dear readers, but has Ronald Cummings ever once said anything bad about the mother of his children?
Thunderbunny, He has said very little about anyone in any interview. He did say in his last interview on Nancy Grace that he did question Mistys story. What I find interesting is the fights and arguements are not with any of the Sheffields, they are with Mistys family.
All of the soap opera events around the case have involved the Croslins. If there were hard feelings between Ron and Crystal there sure is nothing to prove it,ie no fights, no battery,nothing to show hate for each other at all. Even the custody battle really didnt show real hatred on either side. jmo
Tobias,
There is a one year vigil planned if HaLeigh is not home. I know that the family is very hopeful it will not be needed and HaLeigh will be home with them. I cannot imagine how horrible this past year has been for her family. All these “firsts”: First Christmas without HaLeigh there, first birthday without her, etc. I’m praying there will not be a 1 year anniversary without her home, no matter how unlikely it seems.
I’m with you in hopes that the people of Satsuma will also do something to honor HALEIGH. She was, afterall, a member of their town. I hope no one will allow her to be forgotten until she is HOME!
As always, praying for HaLeigh.
Someone mentioned about the LE concerned about Misty and her demeanor the night Haleigh went missing . Could that be the reason that the Drug Squad was brought into the trailer the night it happened . It was on the video they were showing the night the Mondex Pond was being drained , although I cannot find the link for it , I do know what I seen as being on one of the news stations during their online segments . No I cannot remember which one , I do recall a blonde lady talking in it though . I had wondered then why the DEA , and Drug Enforcement were called into a missing child’s case UNLESS they indeed suspect it was due to it and or they did find some evidence of drug use within the home . IDK , I just know that it was shown in one of the video’s .
I also think that the answer to Haleigh’s demise is within the background of the 911 call , strictly what Ronald was saying in the background and not what the operator or Misty was saying . I also believe the last piece of the puzzle to solve this case is finding Haleigh herself , whether it be dead or alive I think that’s the piece they need to put it all together . I also think that the LE are trying to make sure that whoever is charged in the long run that they will not get off with a technicality. I could be wrong but this is just my opinion . I do hope that they find this child and that justice is served for HER.
It will be a year since she has disappeared and it’s been a year of pain for her . She deserves to be brought home and deserves to be heard . This is all about HALEIGH and the players involved needs to think of her instead of themselves throughout it all , unfortunately it’s not happening .
Correct me if I am wrong but this jerome person that was involved at the beginning , is he the same one that was picked up this morning and shown on the putnam log ??? Or am I seeing things ???
I wonder if the LE are getting tired of Ronald getting off on charges with little or no punishment ?? Somewhere along the way the horseshoe he has stuck up so far inside of him with eventually fall out , as well as the Cummings and Croslin’s families . Luck only goes so far before it runs out , I guess time will tell .
Tobias, whether the custody battle showed “hate” on the part of the Sheffields or not, I’m not sure. But it launched a very public onslaught of pretty bad personal attacks of every kind (from a spokesperson/lawyer all the way to bloggers – including Marie & Friends), against him. And even then, as ThunderBunny said, I did not see such comments or retaliation on Ron’s part.
I believe Jerome Williams has been in jail all this time and is now going to court for his crimes. Thats why he showed up on the booking logs. jmo
M2c, I dont really believe Ron did anything except possibly befriending someone who did.
He was at work and has an alibi,LE has said Ron and Crystal are not suspects or persons of interest. jmo
I also wanted the posters the other day who were talking about Rons stop at the store to get beer. While doing a backtrack on this I found out he stopped at the Handy mart in San Mateo and it was on the way home. I googled the map and saw it was not out of his way .Just thought this info might help you.

you’re right Tobias, if one would look they would see a very old booking number. He’s been in St.John’s jail since last summer.
Affirmative on the store he stopped by on his way home that night.
Hi, Tobias!
About your comment at 1:29 – I understand.
My comment @12:29 was in reference to ThunderBunny’s at 11:10 and the last sentence of your response to it (I believe) at 11:52.
Sorry. My comments are landing in odd places that may make them look weird or like they are in response to something else! I’ll try to be more specific! 🙂
I wished Armondo would have finished what he was going to say about Misty and Ron, but he stopped short. Listen to the program again, he sounds real upset when he says it. And why would the community threaten him? Who were the people who he refers to as threatening him?
I felt he was more or less leting us know no one down there cares anymore. imho

I doubt Tommy is going to blame his mom for stealing it, if he does he definitely is a POS.The only 2 people at that house that night it was stolen was him and his momma.
Too bad Joe wasnt there at the time lol
Does anyone know who Kimberly Collins is? Is she a relation to Lindsy? Just curious.
hello everyone, thank you simon and panel. i always appreciate your hearts and your dedication. i want to say to armando i really appreciate your efforts to go to satsuma to see if you could write an article to help haleigh.
I know the LE stated they used cadaver dogs to search for Haleigh, obviously they used the dogs to go through Ronald’s home which would indicate Haleigh was alive when she was removed from the home. IMHO that would mean she was alive for a period of time some where. Did the Police use dogs that search for living humans there are dogs trained for that as well. Did Police find out what vehicles Haleigh had not been in that belonged or belongs to family, acquaintances and neighbours. Have LE picked up those vehicles and had them searched by dogs that look for living beings. Should there be a vehicle she in no way was connected with but a dog hit on it that would make it very hard for the owner of that vehicle to explain that. Did they also try this with neighbours homes? As for Baby Gabriel I have always thought he was killed by his Mother her behaviour is consistent with a mind capable of such a horrible selfish act. I heard it said she used phony ID I wonder if she placed the baby in his diaper bag and then in a shipping box or container went to a local town or other station than the one she left by and shipped the child out and he is bouncing around as a result of a phony address filled out by phony ID. Sounds horrible but I would not put it past this “entity” aka the baby’s mother.
Dusty Rose,
Yes, tracking dogs were brought in to track HaLeigh that first night. If you view the police report, it gives a “partial” track that the dogs followed. (Parts of it are blacked out, although, if you map it out, you can figure out that the dogs went down Tyler Street- Not sure why they tried to “hide” that?)
Here is a link to the police report:
http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2009/images/02/13/putnam.pdf
The tracking info begins on Page 1. There is a mention of the Palatka Police Department Canine Officer Chris Sorrenson and then it gives the route that was followed.
Hope this helps. 🙂

I have read and gone over all the reasons people feel Crystal maybe involved in Haleigh’s disappearance. I understand why people wrestle with the fact she had a distant relationship with her daughter and why she did not make certain aspects of Haleigh;’s life her business. Then there was the Geraldo all about Ronald carried out by Crystal her self. For those who needed a vent some where some one to be angry at over this horrific crime that bashing of Ronald served as an excellent out let. For those who desired the focus to remain on Haleigh it infuriated them. Cobra and his being hired by Crystal’s Lawyer and Crystal’s lawyer her self was enough to completely take the focus off Haleigh. IMHO it is impossible for a parent to embrace every part of their child if that parent holds animosity on any level towards the other biological parent. No matter what the circumstances are no matter how little or much the other parent is involved in the child’s life there will always be things and features that are similar of that other biological parent. The difference between seeing those things as a something not wanted to be seen or embraced as a beautiful part of them is the main link in having a healthy and whole relationship or a broken and wounded one.. Specialist can teach copying skills, positive parenting in what ever the situation is. IMHO it is impossible to love every part of a child if that parent holds animosity towards a part of who they are, the other parent is a part of who they are. That true unconditional love can only be accomplished through complete forgiveness of that other parent. That parent has to want it, mean it and fight over their own self to find it, the only way there is through God. IMHO Crystal did have a strained relationship as a result of her unresolved anger and animosity towards Ronald but I find nothing that convinces me she had anything to do with her daughters disappearance.
God Bless Haleigh and all her families
I know that others had posted what was in the 911 call on the fateful night , and sorry but here is a more thorough transcript than what most have posted . I am not a troll nor am here to start problems , just here for Haleigh only . I had spent the last hour and a half listening and typing out everything that could be understood in that call , hope it helps for those that are interested .

Misty : whiny
911: they’re coming out there okay ??
Misty : okay .
911: okay I’m gonna stay on the phone with you till the officers come out there okay , okay hang on . ( she sounds concerned over Misty welfare and Ronalds temper in back ground )
Misty : okay ( 6:22 )
Ronald : can’t quite make out what he’s saying but it sounds like he said he can’t find his F-ing dope or could be phone
beeping sounds in background that are NOT the beeping sound from the 911 . He mumbled something after about 8-10 beeping sounds but couldn’t make that out .
911 : tell him we got them coming , he needs to calm down a little bit . The officers are going to come out there to do what they can and we can’t have him screaming and yelling at the officers whenever they get there okay ? ?
Misty : uh huh .
Ronald : Give me my F-ing phone . We got better people to talk to than the mother F-ers that ain’t coming . ( 7:06 and call ends at 7:09 )
I honestly have no idea if she is dead or not , and no idea who to believe for the most part of it . I can however say that instincts are strongly telling me that something is NOT right with this whole case . But this is only my opinion .
Morning, Everyone!
Hi, Dusty Rose!
Great insight (your 2:16am post). I agree. I don’t think Crystal herself had anything to do with Haleigh’s disappearance. But to me, her family and friends could be another matter. So until more info comes to light, I’m going to hang on to that as one of the possibilities.
—
Hi, Unlucky Mom: I am so sorry about whatever it is that may have inspired your screen name! None of my business, of course. Just wanted you to know that no matter what it is there are people who care. Although I know that’s not much help sometimes.
I think a lot of people will agree with you that something’s not right with this whole case. I sure do!
Thank you for your transcript of the 911 call. As you said, it differs from other ones we’ve seen. I think with things like that, every person should hear the call themselves because often people hear things differently. Even professional (objective/totally unrelated) transcribers who provide captioning for the hearing impaired, for example, can hear things differently (from each other and/or from people involved in whatever they are transcribing) ! So I think it’s a good thing for everyone to listen and decide for themselves. Thank you for sharing what you heard.
MORNING M2C
GOOD TO C U.ANYTHING NEW ON HALEIGH?
Morning, Pinkey! I’m fine, thank you!
How are YOU? It’s so GOOD to see you back!
I don’t know of anything new, unfortunately. Folks are talking about the upcoming one year mark since Haleigh disappeared. If only something would “give” to break the case. As much as I gripe about LE, at the same time I’m praying they are really close and solve it soon.
I wonder if Jerome Williams knows anything?
If he does now would be the time to tell, he is going to court and will be going away for quite some time. He was supposedly trying to get info before he got locked up again, maybe he kept his ear to the ground,so to speak, and hopefully learned some info. We can only hope he has some. jmo

Just saw this too. Can you believe it wow hope they got something ou of her with the plea she took. What do you think of it? jmo
Is that it? 18 months probation? $700 restitution and community service? They brought her clear from Tennessee for that?
Maybe LE went light on her because she coughed up info? I sure hope so cause otherwise this is really a light sentence for what she did. jmo
Hope you’re right Tobias, however, it IS the county with revolving doors.
Whats Tommy going to get? 6month probation and a lollipop? Really 18 months probation on a max. 5 year $5000 offense? Seems real fishy to me.
ECHO ECHO ECHO OOOOits lonely in here.
Yea, I am wondering how Lisa is going to pay fines,restitution, probation fees and drug tests? I wonder how long before she’s chunked back into jail for POV?
Tommy’s charges are grand theft so I hope he doesn’t get off as easy as she did and he still has the drug charges to face too. Hell, what am I saying he will get a slap on the wrist too..
I really believe the courts don’t want to lock away these repeat offenders because it keeps money flowing in the county coffers for all the crap they have to pay to the county as far as bonds, fines,etc.
Thats what I’ve been saying all along its not PCSO its the judges. If they arrest someone they are out on the streets in minutes and when they go to court they get probation and /or fines. Some like Annette Sykes was dismissed altogether. PCSO knows darned well who ever took Haleigh is going to get off if they dont have concrete evidence. So I think we all need to cut them some slack for now. jmo
OOPS! I meant Hope Sykes sorry.
Tobias, I would be more than happy to cut PCSO some slack if they are just waiting for concrete evidence – if only I had some confidence that they have a real CLUE! LOL!
(I truly hope they do, though!)
– – –
Thank you, Vaq, for the info! Some of the language is unfamiliar to me. Well, lots.
What does “ADJUDICATION OF GUILT WITHHELD AS TO CT I AND II” mean?
Can anyone clarify? TIA
I think it means she didnt make a plea of guilt or not guilty or no contest. I ll check it out to be sure brb
Sorry got it wrong it means that if she dooesnt follow the terms of her probation she will be prosecuted for the counts 1 and 2 and serve her whole sentence.imho
Part of the definition that I found said:
“The court does not give a final judgment regarding the case.” So that’s why it does not make sense to me. It appears that she got 18 months probation, to run concurrently, for those two charges (counts I and II).
That’s why I’m confused.
Also, Tobias, no matter how loosey goosey the court is there about some things I’m sure it will be a different matter altogether when/if someone is charged with Haleigh’s disappearance. And of course LE should have concrete proof (hopefully) before doing so.
Thank you, Tobias. I think that’s right. They might withdraw probation and throw her in the slammer.
What I see is 18 months probation.50 hrs. community service and a total in fines of $1546.00(that includes the once a month fee for drug tests for 18 months). imho
Looks like someone better get a job and stop with the drugs or they may go directly to jail and not pass go lol
I wondering why there was a continuence for Tommys gun charge? What is he going to say?
Lisa did it, they were the only ones at Mr.Martins and she did return it herself.
Its not like they wont throw each other under the bus when they are in trouble. imho
Tobias, that’s right.
What confused me was that it read:
18 months probation on count one. Plus 18 months probation on count two (both to run at same time!)But then it says Adjudication Withheld for Counts I and II. But I guess that means those can be re-visited if she louses up.
Tobias, you asked: “I’m wondering why there was a continuence for Tommys gun charge?”
I don’t know. Could be a number of things. One of which is proof. Lisa returned the gun to the owner, didn’t she? And she’s the one who said Tommy took it. So if it’s a he said/she said, maybe there’s some trouble proving it was him and not her. Or it could be something else. IDK.
Sorry, Tobias. Scratch that last idea. I’m sure Tommy’s prints were all over that gun! LOL!
I wonder if they found it in the culvert where the previously stolen gun showed up? imho
Adjudication
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Adjudication is the legal process by which an arbiter or judge reviews evidence and argumentation including legal reasoning set forth by opposing parties or litigants to come to a decision which determines rights and obligations between the parties involved. Three types of disputes are resolved through adjudication:
1. Disputes between private parties, such as individuals or corporations.
2. Disputes between private parties and public officials.
3. Disputes between public officials or public bodies.
Thank you, Vaq.
I think what confused me was that it said “Adjudication Withheld” for Counts I and II” and ALSO said 18 months probation to run concurrently for the same counts. So it sounds like counts 1 and 2 were adjudicated (but perhaps not finalized or whatever but can be re-considered if she violates probation or something).
The taint of a felony conviction can also affect someone if he or she ever appears as a witness in a court proceeding. In Florida, a cross-examining lawyer is always permitted to ask a person who takes the witness stand if he or she has ever been convicted of a felony or a crime involving dishonesty or false statement (examples of crimes involving dishonesty or false statement are petty theft and shoplifting). But if the conviction is withheld, the lawyer cannot even ask the question.
One of the perks of haveing an adjudication of the offense. It also is expunged and after 18 mo. there will be no record of this.imho
Maybe they foresee Lisa being called as a witness in the future and this would be a good way to keep her testimony from being tainted? Hmmmm. moo
I researched and found that article under Florida laws.
Has anyone heard anything about Cobras court date? I wonder if it will go as smoothly as the Croslins cases? We can only hope he gets free and can resume his life. Just a sad state of affairs.moo
Tobias, re your 6:41 – Yes, but she was judged guilty of count III, petit theft. Adjudication on that was not withheld.
Maybe it’s part of avoiding a costly trial as well has paying for her stay in jail. I don’t know.
Good night all. Dont forget to say an extra prayer tonight for Haleigh and for Junior.
M2C, Petit theft is a misdemenor not a felony conviction. I just looked it up before leaving. Hope this helps. Goodnight.

++++++++++++
If Lisa does not follow all the (negotiated) terms on Count III — The:
*18 months probation
*50 hours community service
*$1,546.00 in fines (which includes once per month fee for drug testing for 18 months)
She will be “sentenced” on Charges I & II. (Count I = UTTERING A FORGED INSTRUMENT
Count II = FORGERY)
Looks like those sentences were already negotiated. So she already knows exactly what would happen to her if she gets in trouble again. (She would also probably have a VOP in addition to Charges I & II to deal with)
I wonder what Lisa is going to do for her Community Service?
Tobias and J – Thank you both! Your info helps a lot!
Ron and Tommy were just booked for drug trafficking.

Check out the bond amounts! Wow! They won’t be bonding out any time soon!
Well Folks,
While I am very pleased that there is something happening finally, I am not so sure that much will be learned from this. I will say my prayers as always. I hope that there will be an even bigger break in the morning. Love to you all.
