This just in from TJ Hart, it looks like there are heading down the dreaded NPO road. It will be interesting to see where this leads – Jan Barrett
Six-year-old Haleigh Cummings has been missing since she disappeared from her Satsuma, Florida home on February 9, 2009. The last person to see her was her babysitter Misty Croslin-Cummings, who then became her stepmother and will soon become her father’s ex-wife.
According to Terry Shoemaker, the attorney representing Haleigh’s father Ronald Cummings, he believes the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office is doing an excellent job following leads and tips, but a fresh set of eyes may aid the investigation.
Shoemaker told www.actionnewsjax.com, “What we’d like to do is hire an independent private investigator that would allow them to look into some different areas, check down some different stories that have come in and possibly lead the investigation in another direction.”
Shoemaker is now investigating ways to set up a non-profit organization. He says its purpose would be to 1) help get the word out about Haleigh’s disappearance, and 2) serve as a way to gather funds to pay the private investigator.

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackI don’t see a problem with this. They should exhaust all possible sources in order to bring Haleigh home. Whether its to bring her home alive, or to rest her soul in a respectful manner. When you have a police force that seems to only follow one theory (the last person to allegedly see Haleigh did it), then you may need a fresh pair of eyes. Someone who is more open minded.
I tend to balk at the idea of Ron sitting on his butt living off a not-for-profit search for his missing daughter when he clearly has not been searching yet and wasn’t very keen on helping Cobra search.
On the other hand, Le has a very bad habit of going after the last person to see the victim and acting like a dog with a bone. My biggest gripe of all is not thorough investigating some of the SO’s in the area…Daniel Snodgrass…the guy that kept coming around the haleigh center (trying to insert himself into the investigation somehow????) especially.
but on the other hand, Ron has had a private investigator, bounty hunter willing to work for him for free, and has not taken advantage of Cobra’s offer either.
Is this going to be another case where the child will never be found, but the parent will ride a gravy train the rest of their not-for-profit life? I’m not holding my break waiting for Ron’s PI to find anything unless he hires COBRA.
make that holding my breath.
My personal opinion is that Ron’s attorney is trying everything he can to fix his client’s reputation (divorce, NPO, PI), but as far as I am concerned, it is ‘too little, too late.’
Unfortunately, there will be people that will send him money. Look how much mail and followers serial killers get in jail.
From what I remember, in the initial days when he ‘searched,’ he was done the minute the cameras quit rolling. He doesn’t want to search, he knows what happened, at least to some extent.
Everything above is my opinion only and should only be taken as such.
Thank you Simon, Jan, TJ, and Cobra for your continued efforts.
what’s the diffrence between ron asking for donation’s to help find haleigh and crystal already recieving donation’s?
crystal hasnt given one single penny towards finding haleigh.
why isnt crystal using the donations she has recieved on finding haleigh?
could it be crystal already knows?
i say more power to ron, and keep your head up.
and to crystal, i say maybe she needs to give up the money she has recieved and donate it to the private investagator who will be looking for her daughter too.
So it’s ok for Crystal to sit around, do nothing, not even hire a PO, and make money on a NPO, but it’s not ok for Ron. Whatever.
I agree with texasgoldengirl,and Truckerwife,why should others pay for Ronald’s bills.He loves the camera,the spot light,and the free ride.What a shame,he doesn’t seem to care about his children,besides Jr and Haleigh he has another child,who supports that one.He was bit–ing about Crystal not paying,what about his other child?All he wants is a free ride.He uses woman and takes advantage of them,his mom most let men do that,he got the idea from someplace.I do believe he knows what happen and he is using it to his advantage.Guess Misty is of know use to him anymore.Hope she leans something from this,and she can get another lawyer as Ron and his followers are going to pin it all on her.Don’t think she is smart enough to have planned this child’s disappearance by herself.Lets hope there is an end to the story and she don’t become a cold case.How sad that would be.
Back up folks,Crystal did make a donation.Maybe she is doing more than you know.Maybe she isn’t like Ron,she don’t need camera’s and making a fool of herself.Ron hasn’t donated anything nor has his family,all he does is takes trips,gets tatt’s,has fun,goes to Orlando,and collects welfare,and announces to the world his divorce.And goes to see Miss Nancy every chance he gets.He needs to get a job,pay for PI his own self,or take Corba’s offer.
This is great news. I wish him the very best of luck…it’s about time he started looking. I am confident that there are people out there that will help him fund the new PI. I wish the family would have supported cobra more and not just financially, Maybe he would have gotten further….and a little further for him and he may have solved it. But this is good news for Haleigh, with a lot of hope and prayers maybe she’ll be found safe.
and remember….if you don’t donate then you can’t complain.
Just one question though….Will Cobra share what he knows with the new PI and bring whoever it is up to date or will the new PI just have to listen to The BNN’s Blog talk shows and try to figure it out? I’m hopeing Cobra will share whatever he knows.
d kerr,
do you have a link proving crystal has donated money?
if so, could you please provide one.
and if im mistaken cobra isnt allowed by law to be a bounty hunter/private invesagator or bondsman until he is found innocent.
besides why would ron hire cobra after all the side shows cobra has caused?
In many cases LE request, immediate family or those closely attached to the missing, not to be in on the searches. I can see LE asking Ronald & Crystal to stay away from the searches due to all the media & publicity from this case. Especially if LE thinks they are involved,they may have told them to stay away. I know this looks terrible for all of Haleigh’s loved ones but we really don’t know what goes on behind closed doors, we don’t know if they are grieving, we don’t know if they have anything to hide. Just food for thought. I know sometimes my mind runs away with me speculating on who did this to her. I also judge them thinking if it were my child I would be out there day & night……but in reality I may have not been able to be in public with all the people against me. I don’t really know because thank God I have never had to face anything like this. Treece
Doesn’t Crystal’s fiance have a job? That’s more to say then Ron & Misty who are both JOBless.
Ron is what… 26 years old? Living at home with Mom, or Grandma?
Come on now!
I thought this was an adult.
You grown enough to make babies, you grown enough to get a job and SUPPORT your own self!
Geez Louise.
So,this is another HaLeighBug Center?As long as it’s being accountable for every penny spent,parents shouldn’t reap off children’s abductions,I’ve said it all along,no matter who it is.I don’t know who is giving TN and RC advice,but maybe RC’s lawyer should step up and just be the counselor and making decisions for RC.Too many are giving unwise council and making him look bad,IMO.What it looks like is Misty is getting thrown under in the media,so another foundation can be started for money for another family.Everyone should go to work and make thier own way.With FBI and many LE depts involved,what good is another PI thrown into the mix?
Ron cause has more side shows than anyone,as for Crystal’s donation it was in the news awhile back.I am not sure which but it was at once around the time Misty went to Orlando for the poly.,and other test.Crystal also opened Haleigh Bug,and has several sights,myspace and Haleighbug.com.She is fair and shows pic’s of Ronald and his family,along with her on pic’s,she honors many people as Haleigh’s hero’s.None of us can be sure as to who is at fault,and would love to see an end.It would be nice to see the parents,both Ronald and Crystal on local TV,airways and in the public,talking about nothing but Haleigh and asking for help.This should be done as a family pulling together without fights.No stone throwing,ugly words and a show of love for this child.I just pray that they know Haleigh needs them to get it together and work together to find her.With that said,just to let you know I would not of made a statement about that donation had I not read it.I do feel that Crystal has been pushed aside for the circus that Ronald and Misty has made of Haleigh’s story. We all just want the child found,and it really upsets us all that she hasn’t.Simon thanks for giving us all a place to vent,tell what we think,and to find out news and facts.
D Kerr,
I don’t believe he’s getting welfare.
As with the Anthony’s,none of them should have foundations or non profit anything,it makes them all look like they are just trying to get money.
No matter what their excuse or media spin,it’s bs.HaLeigh’s life is more than reaping off her disappearance,they should all be ashamed of themselves for using a little girl to get free money.
I heard Crystal bit back at Misty’s comment about Misty thinking Crystal’s family did it.
Anyone know where that is?
gemma,
Regarding Cobra and his sideshows…..sometimes you have to rattle the cage to get the beast to move….just sitting around collecting money, getting donors to take care of your back child support, getting married, getting tattoes and putting decapitated RATS in people’s mailboxes… isn’t finding Haleigh.
Nor is hiring a PI that is more intent upon covering your butt than finding a child always the best solution either.
Crystal will always seem like a number one suspect to me what with not just the back child support but the fact that she was going to jail soon as the three year mark approached.
Motive wise, no one had more motive than Crystal from what I can see except possibly an SO.
WinterRose, I agree there should be nothing taking donations for the Anthony’s. They do not have a missing child.
D Kerr, I don’t think most of the media, excluding TJ & Simon, would allow Crystal & Ron to work together and just talk about Haleigh. Any time I have seen them they are just answering questions and few have to do with Haleigh. But I agree it would be nice. But most media wouldn’t give them air time if she were all there was to talk about. Sad deal but in most cases the drama is all that keeps it in the news.
CherryOnTop:
Have you ever had a child go missing? Do you remember how the real “Zenaida Gonzalez” had a hard time finding a job because others thought she might be a child murderer? Do you not think that people may look at Ron like that with all the media on him? Do you think he can even go look without all the cameras? If I had a child missing and was receiving unemployment, I would not work either. I would spend my time looking for my daughter, and having discussions with my attorney as Ron seems to be doing.
Every time you post on here it is as if you are just trying to make extreme comments to aggravate others. Your comments are so off the wall sometimes.
Kat, I find it amusing that taking UNEMPLOYMENT while making your life public, (Everything besides his daughter), is acceptable.
I don’t buy that for a second.
He can get a job, people aren’t going to NOT hire him & if cameras are on him, it makes their company well known also. Which is what many places would love.
In case you forgot, RON is not a suspect.
I can see where Misty would have a hard time finding a job, she didn’t complete much of school!
Excuses, Excuses, Excuses.
People just getting out of jail with a bad name, still get jobs.
That’s a ridiculous excuse.
I haven’t seen any evidence that Ron has been looking for his daughter. Was he looking for his daughter when he texted Misty to warn her that Donna was a TES plant trying to get the truth out of her? Was he looking for Haleigh when he put a decapitated rat in his brother in law’s mailbox and then used Misty to alibi him? Was he looking for Haleigh when he marched down the aisle and seemingly very begrudgingly married Misty? How is getting a an expensive tattoo going to help locate your missing daughter when the money could have been donated?
The reason Ron was not able to keep his job (his employer put out an official letter) is because he never ever showed up for work again or called in…and it was quite a while before they finally let him go.
what’s the diffrence between ron asking for donation’s to help find haleigh and crystal already recieving donation’s?
———-
Not a damn thing, gemma. Crystal and Marie are heading to TX for a big ho down in Bastrop to raise money for something. I wonder what happened to all the money they raised before HBC became a NFP from all the purple jugs they passed around at the races every weekend and the Catfish or crab festival, which ever it was, and the selling of very marked up tee shirts and bracelets and all the money people just sent in? Jeremiah kept the books, seems him and the books are MIA.
Why should the Cummings have helped Cobra when he worked for Kim and Crystal and was trying to pin this on Ron, which he never could do because Ron was at work and had nothing to do with it.

——-
Do you honestly believe that crap? Ron and Misty stayed with Donna Brock back in Aug. along with Tim, they’ve always known she worked with TES.
Vaq – technically Cobra was never hired by KP nor Crystal. It was Crystal’s Dad’s wife that hired Cobra. KP claimed that she fired Cobra but she couldn’t have because he never worked on this case for her.
Ron is a loser and everyone knows. His poor lawyer is just trying to save face. On the surface, the idea of a PI digging into things in Satsuma is the best idea I have heard yet. But I have to ask, why did it take 8 months to do it? I would have sold my soul to afford that right off the bat!!! This is all posturing for something that is yet to come, I can feel it. And I am scared for Haleigh, I want her to be OK. I pray she is with Crystal’s family and safe.
And what is up with Crystal? She has had the Halieghbug center, but what have they done? And it is good that she is staying out of the drama, but she should still be trying to get Haleigh’s picture and story out there every chance she gets. I am gonna see if I can find info on what has happened with the funds she has gathered thus far, we shall see. But I get the feeling from her that she is just waiting for things to blow over, which leaves me wondering…..
I’ll be back
Thank you for the update Jan, I pray they find Haleigh.
Stop the abuse and murder of the children in the U.S

RON WUZ AT WORK! THERE WERE CAMERAS ON HIM AT ALL TIMES! EVERY PERSON AT PDM TALKED WITH HIM AND SAW HIM THERE. WHOLY CRAP! HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU? THEY DO BODYSCANS THERE KINDA LIKE X_RAYS. 100% NO WAY COULD HE HAVE LEFT THERE. RIGHT LE?
Crystal has had the center then the foundation from the beginning.I don’t see where it’s done anything,except give out school things to kids.Go on every talkshow,local news,anything to keep the word out.Another center or foundation is worthless.Crystal and Ron should right now,go on every show together as they should have at the beginning and I will tell you,that will make a bigger impression and media exposure than anything that has been done to date.
Holy Klynn, take a couple deep breaths. Ron could still have things to hide, like drug use and/or trafficking which would cause him to be involved directly or indirectly. He always seems to be addressing a certain person when he talks of her getting ‘stole’. He knows what Misty knows, there is no other reason for his behaviour.
Oh, and the hand scans were in use AFTER February. How many time does it need to be said. Just kidding, lol. But relax, we’re all on the same side.
WinterRose: I agree completely.
1) Drug kings (Or whatever they are called) put hits on “family” to make sure their message is CLEAR. Didn’t Ron say if he had “this much hundred thousand dollars”, he would find his daughter?
2) Again, Ron shouldn’t be in the clear. I make this point as much as possible, kids can get BEAT so badly and not show symptons until LATER, or die later.
Maybe Ron knows that if Misty were to come out and say, Ron beat her “blah blah blah” that Ron would say “She’s just trying to say this because I divorced her”.
Never know.
Dear TJ Hart, does anyone remember in the beginning the cadaver dogs hit on a dumpster down the road from Ron’s house, the problem was it was a couple days later and the garbage had already been picked up and took to the landfill, this has bothered me so much, it seems like this was mentioned a couple times then never brought up again, does anyone else remember this? Was this followed up on? I would think cadaver dogs hitting on anything close to that house would have been big news HUGE!!! Am I the only one that thinks this way, what am I missing
Well, looking at the Haleighbug website. I couldn’t find any info about the spending of funds raised. I also never found anywhere they ask for donations, it appears they don’t.
So there you have it. I think Haleighbug was put together more to gather tips than funds. Ron’s NPO is for funds straight up before it is even established. I guess we can see where the priorities are for these two. If I were Ron, I would be embarrassed that at 26 years old I have no funds of my own.

Well I guess ‘technically’ you’re right,LOL If he signed no paperwork with them then “technically” he was not working for them.
From what Hobbit said on his board Kim and Crystal and HBC paid for Cobra’s lodging, meals, gas, and whatever else, which I doubt. He also brought up the money given him to bail out the 2 druggies and the grand theft charges. He had to have gotten that from one of them. Also mentioned about flooding BNN with calls Sunday to throw this up in cobra’s face Sunday.
Cobra might want to set the record straight. 😉

=======
wow, how that story has grown.
TXgoldengirl, Ron still has not been charged with that? That was 2 months ago. So that tells me it wasn’t Ron. Maybe Tommy ripped off the wrong people. We know he’s a thief and a druggie.
Misty will make money posing for Hustler magazine when she turns 18, Ron not so much.
I guess my post didn’t go through.
Vaquera, I don’t know anything about the drug use or what not, I was just saying.
Isn’t that the way it goes when you owe “drug” money?
They go for your family?
maybe the kidnap story is true.
Ron did say if he had so much money he would know where his daughter was.
I don’t know…
Just saying!
Vaquera,
After the investigation was closed because Misty gave Ron an alibi and lied for him, he admitted he put the decapitated rat in Hank’s mailbox to Tim Miller. Investigation was already closed by then and PSCO would never get Ron to admit it to them. There are a lot of legitimate reasons why Ron’s butt should probably be in jail, but it’s not. Which only proves that he is fairly slick (imo).
mariesilk,
Is it true the handscans were not in use until after February?
Well, all I can say is: We will see how long it will take for this PI to get arrested.
I, personally, wouldn’t give a dime to Ronald unless I felt like he had stopped lying and told the public all that he knows.
Pamela: I was there broadcsting live on radio and on cnn/hln tv from on top of truck while the crews were picking through both dumpsters.
They waited nearly two weeks to take the dumpsters away–they were overflowing. Nothing went to the dump that I saw until both containers had been examined.
That’s not to say a 3rd one had been taken and I wasn’t aware of it.
TJ thank you, for always being so helpful.
Don’t you find it odd that Misty’s parents up and moved? You would think they would stick around to search for Haleigh. I hope they are being watched, and that cousin! YUK! He gave me the creeps! The scratch on the van, it being moved from its parking spot.
As far as the dumpster, I think it would be normal that Haleigh’s scent was on some of the things just from everyday handling, so I never put much into that part with the dogs.
Misty may have scored low on the LDT because she believes it is possible that someone she knows may have taken this child. Personally, I suspect her cousin or Chad.
Tommy may have stolen the gun to shoot the cousin (if he also suspected his role).
Only thing missing from this case is “our steak dinner” – for this mystery!
Such a sad tragedy.
Pamela, I think they said the dumpster had not been emptied, but you know THREE dogs could not be wrong. I think she maybe was there and was moved.
I think they said the dumpster was for construction and not moved as as quickly as regular dumpsters.
“Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” This is the most dysfunctional bunch of people I’ve ever had the unpleasure of hearing about. With their backgrounds I would not contribute one cent to any of their “foundations”. Anyone who tries to help find this child gets thrown under the bus. Now Ron
wants more money sent to them? For what their Tattoos, Drugs, Cigarettes,Trips? Anyone who would contribute to these people must have a screw loose. Of all the children missing why would we contribute to a family that has never once tried to find their child but yet complains about anyone who tries? I don’t care about the players in this circus except to tell us what has happened to Haleigh. They need to get off TV and get to the sheriffs office and talk to LE. Ron’s attorney needs to get off TV too and help find this child. He seems to talk out of both sides of his mouth. I don’t care how good he’s supposed to be. At least Misty’s attorney had enough self respect to remove himself from this mess. God protect this child and her brother from these idiots. Sorry to be on my soap box tonight but this is beyond ridiculous.
Harry kunt, you are repulsive, I wouldn’t brag about being a pervert, pedophile.
Simon, jan: is there any way you can make hcunt stop writing comments like that like this case is a joke he has went on a previous thread and made similar comments that is very disturbing that we are talkin bout theory and some pervert comes here commenting on bull shit that does not pertain to haleigh no one here wants to hear it thanks
Ash, I agree…..Simon, Jan….PLEASE
Ash berry:
I suggest he head on down to Satsuma. Ron will take care of him.
Ok now ron lookin for his daughter better late than never someone said earlier they would be embarrassed to know they were 26 with no money well i have 4 kids and one coming we hardly have any money but we work we dont get welfare another thing my grand mother taught me “its not about how much money you have its about how you live” and we all know ron doesnt lead the best life and my i dont agree with giving him funds. but @ least now he is makin an effort mayb it is for monetary gain but we dont know that do we
I have banned him over and over but he keeps getting back in. We will work on it tomorrow but for now I have deleted it once again.
Sorry
Good night everyone
Jan Barrett
With all do respect even he he heads down there i dont think misty has to many people lookin out for her best interest not even ron. i think all those people are overly involved with their self to case about any one else i mean look at big pic haleigh is missing and no one will come forward with any useful information like this girl never mattered i just dont get it prob never will
Thanks jan! he prob keeps changing user names. we do appreciate you takin care of that for us! see how sick people are makes my stomache turn to know people can think of that stuff when there is a child missing

So it took sometime and a friend but we found it.
do any of you know ron,misty or crystal personally ? i mean you posters that are knocking crystal and ron .. the fact is neither of them were with haleigh the night she disappeared misty was .ron and crystal by far do not seem like upstanding parents but i do believe they love thier daughter .. they make mistakes and listen to people who are out to make a buck off of THEM .you think the tv shows they go on arnt making money for thier interviews? they need money to take care of thier other children so ya they need money too ..ron had a job .. sorry if my child went missing my job would be the last place id be thinking about ..and how do you guys know if they have searched ? crystal also has a baby to take care of as well .. she cant just leave her other child either . put yourselfs in her shoes once .. i dont believe for one second crystal is doing anything she shouldnt be doing .. its easy for all to judge sitting behind the computer talking smart .. those parents know damn well this is partially thier fault for the irresponsiblilty they have shown to haleigh .. how do you think that must make them feel ? i dont see crystal on tv and ya i did see her beg for her child to be brought back more than once on tv when she was on .. so people saying she hasnt begged are full of it .. they both have begged leave the parents alone already …
To judithan (8:52 p.m.)
I agree with you. I would not contribute one cent to any “foundation” any of these players are affiliated with! If they have money for cigarettes, beer, drugs, etc., then they should be donating that money to efforts to help find Haleigh. They probably know where she was dumped!
My advice to the unemployed players: Get off of your butt and get a job. Quit free loading off of the government (the taxpayers of Florida) if you are getting food stamps, Medicaid, etc. To some people the aforementioned is a way of life. There are people who truly are in need and qualify and then there are those who will suck every penny they can get out of the government (welfare programs).
If you can not find a job in Satsuma or surrounding area, then go to a larger city. If you have to scrub floors, flip hamburgers, pick fruit in the orchids, mow lawns or whatever…. GET A JOB!
I am repulsed about families making money off of missing children or murdered children (the Anthony’s). I think it is disgusting and deplorable! There is nothing more that I despise than freeloaders or scam artists trying to make a buck off of a missing child or murdered child!
If Haleigh was my child, I would have plastered the state of Florida and beyond with posters. Then I would have done any kind of legitimate work to make money to keep my effort going.
Someone mentioned Marie & Crystal are headed for Texas to solicit funds (not verbatim). It costs money to travel. I suggest they keep their butts in Florida, pound pavement and put up some posters. Or better yet….Crystal, get off of your butt and get a job! There are many missing children in Texas and I don’t know of one Texas case whereby the family is going to Florida to seek donations from Floridans. I don’t care what Marie and Crystal may be “peddling”…..I hope not one Texan contributes to their effort!
The IRS needs to investigate some of these so called foundations!
Poor Haleigh! I really think she is not alive. Because of her health problems and history of medical treatment, she would have been taken to a hospital ER or doctor during this 8 month period. This case has received national attention. I know someone in a medical capacity would have recognized her.
Whoever knows something about Haleigh, go to LE and confess or tell what you know. Eventually, your house of cards will crumble!
In the various videos, it is disgusting to see young, able bodied people not working and looking higher than a kite on drugs!
This is a Link to a video I saw on YouTube. There are many pictures of Haleigh I have never seen. In most of the pictures she looks like a very happy little girl in her cute little outfits!
Haleigh,beautiful little child, where are you?

Ashberry:
I didn’t mean that, literally, but Ron and Misty are still keeping in touch. Both of them have stated, that they may get back together someday.
And you people on here who judge others so quickly (who seem to know this family on a PERSONAL level) are all so perfect, right!? I drink sometimes, does that make me a terrible person? No, because most of you on here probably do too. It’s a LEGAL stimulant. Judging others is as much a sin as lying or murdering. So please try not to vomit your angry ignorant words onto the rest of the public unless you were actually there and you know what happened. Misty may be a victim also. When you grow up with the kind of parents she had, allegedly, you might have some issues, but that does not mean she unequivocally had something to do with Haleigh’s disappearance. Ron is doing what he needs to do. Talking with lawyers, cooperating with the police, and getting Haleigh’s name out there.
I’m absolutely not downing anyone.
Everyone should still be a suspect.
I am making valid points why Crystal, Ron or Misty can be involved.
You don’t know either. This is a forum for US to comment and complain.
So get use to it.
This is what we are here for.
We like to talk it out just like the next person.
Just saying.
No biggie, no sass attached.
I agree and i respect everyone opinion and i also think that we have special people here that still devote time to think of haleigh and what might have happened to her we all have our own families but we still care about this child see thats whats important not our different views we are just the village tryin to make the pieces fit and karon i know you didnt mean it literally i agree with most things you post heres to haleigh coming home and mayb no one can profit off her anymore its not about money its your daughter grandchild step daughter do something besides get money off fellow americans we case about your child but we dont want our money to go to your habits
Justice, thank you for posting those videos. I had not seen them and Haleigh is so pretty in them. Not only did they show her beauty and that she looked happy they also showed how clean she was. The house around her was clean, her outfits were clean and neat. Her hair was fixed. You could see Ronalds love for her. They showed he spent time with her, dyeing eggs, fishing, helping her open gifts. I am glad you posted them. It reminded all of us that this is about an innocent little girl that desperately needs to be found.
To Treece (9:51 a.m.):
You welcome! I agree with you. Haleigh is a beautiful little girl.
There are so many candid shots of her and she seems to be a very happy child. I can see why the video is titled “Daddy’s Haleigh”.
Justice: thanks for those pics paints a different picture shows us it can happen to any of us im sure most of you know i have 4 kids now i want to share somethin that happened to me i was pregnant with baby 4 and i was workin double shifts see my husband didnt work he was a drunk but i never thought he would put our kids in danger i got home after a double shift and he was not there my kids were alone house destroyed i called the police he had went to the store across the street to get a beer and was arrested for public drunkness never once told the police he was watching our kids so then he got a charge for child endanger ment see never know what happens
Texas golden girl – I agree with your thinking that Crystal, indeed, had a motive for stealing Haleigh a lot more than any of the other players in this saga. IMO, possibly, her boyfriend/stepbrother could have taken Haleigh who would have gone willingly with him. I can’t imagine this feisty child going with someone they didn’t know without making a huge fuss. It is possible they did plan to take Jr. also but were distracted by some noise as if someone was coming home. And, how about this Chad guy who has been missing, what is up with that?
I am very turned off by Crystal, just making that strange whiny noise in the beginning and shedding NO REAL TEARS. IMO, she is as bad as Ron with no morals whatsoever, content to forever live on welfare and does not appear, to me, to be completely ‘with it.’ IMO, neither of the parents deserve to have Ron’s beautiful kids. Drug-infested homes with almost every relative having a criminal and drug background. Crystal is the one ex-girlfriend who looks completely skanky. Ron’s other girlfriends could have been attractive young ladies with a lot of promise in their lives but with the parents they have, it would have been a miracle if they had turned out differently. Nay Nay was not
Ron’s gf but at least it is apparent that she paid some attention to her schoolwork as her writing is legible and her spelling is much better than most of the notes from the others that I have seen. It is such a waste of these various girls. What they could have amounted to with different parents who had some morals etc.
why is crystal looking @ jail time what is this 3 yrs stuff?has anyone came out and asked Cobra who hired him,paid him ect? yes I know both ron and crystal from the hospital where i worked and ive seen what ron can do to women and test results of drugs/cocain ,canbis,crack ect.come back postive on both of them i have not worked there for a few years so i cannot tell anyone if their still doing drugs or not however the nite Halegh went amist my friends 2 children were @ the same party misty was @ in flager estates and they know PCSO well enough to know when you are a cops child donot open your mouth or else as for the reward i feel very strong on who talks should get it and if their life is threaten if they do talk how are they going to be protected for telling there are some mean ruthless thugs out there who might be involed and has already made threath aginst their family if they go to le
You know its easy to believe that Misty should know something. However, where is the evidence of this supposed party? Seriously, do you think that the people at the party wouldn’t talk to others about it? Everyone wants their 10 minutes of fame. Why haven’t the blood hounds been used. They can do some amazing work. Why not look at why Misty’s brother or cousin hightailed it out of town. It would seem that a body could be anywhere between Florida and Connecticut.
lisapalatka: If you know for a fact of 2 kids at the same party as Misty why haven’t you contacted the police instead of being on here making comments about it??
Lisa: im sure you prob know these people since you live so close and worked in the hospital but no matter what they done you dont need to be airin their med record and test results that is against the law in itself i am a nurse and i dont have to tell you how dis respectful that was why dont you enlighten us on this party you know so much about that you know for a fact misty was there do you know if haleigh was there? seriously you should have more respect for your patients.
I keep thinking about that guy that writes his dreams down and has shown them on internet of missing young people.
He keeps saying he saw 175,000, Jacksonville,
Crystal’s friend. That is all I remember. One more railroad.
He said that Natalie Holloway was alive and in columbia, SA. Was taken down there kidnapped. She has many secrets. Interesting.
I’ve said it before, the people who really know where Misty was that night are afraid to come clean. There is more at stake then most may realize. The threatening people won’t neciassarily strike right away, since it would be obvious that it would be in retaliation for “ratting”. What is more likely is that they would wait 6-12 months, if not a couple of yrs then suddenly you’re found as a suicide, fire burned down your house and you died inside (very popular here), or some “freak” accident.
They don’t live in a large town. It’s what they call a “bedroom community”. Why? Because everybody knows what everybody else does in thier “bedroom” ie who’s sleeping with whom. Because of this word travels very very fast. If someone came forward those who want things hidden would know within hours. Also some LE will call POI to let them know LE is on thier way. I’ve seen it in action SEVERAL times in my town. Pssst…clear everything in the house LE is on thier way. Often comes from pretty high up. Did I mention one LEO told me face to face that he had been, for years, the 1st officer on scene at KKK crime scenes…so that the perpetrators would have time to get away!!!! True story. I may have to start looking behind my bakc now….ooopps! I’ve kept that info very close to the vest for 20 yrs.
hollysgmom, I have lived in a small town before that everything was rigged and yes there were circumstances that saying the wrong thing could get you killed. Sounds like you have experienced some of the same junk. But you said, anyone that really knows where Misty was that night are afraid to tell… So does that mean you believe Misty was gone? You don’t think she could have slept through an abduction and really doesn’t know anything? Just curious. Treece
Jan, i need your e-mail addy please. TY
Anne my email addy is jannyo@gmail.com

@lisapalatka, I agree if what you are saying is true, then why aren’t haven’t you contacted LE and told them what you know.. This would be critical info an you know this.. Are you afraid that your the only one these kids told this too. Seriously, this is your obligation to put this info out to the Le. I certainly wish you would.
Ron had said he married Misty to keep her close. Is he scared she will leave town now? Who will she stay with? Her whole family is in jail, that is in Florida. Will she return to Tn? I think they enjoy the interviews. They all are dressing much nicer now. But I will have to say judging from the pics, that Ron kept Haleigh nicely dressed and seemed to have took her on alot of family functions. Ron did work until this happened. I could not possibly hold a job if my child was missing. I could not function. Why not let Cobra take this on? He may not like his manner, but anyone can take a little salt in wound. Just find Haleigh…………………
Justice…thank you for posting the YouTube link. What a beautiful child. I just cannot imagine anyone doing anything to hurt her.
lisapalatka…do tell more about the party. If the kids know Misty was there, then they would know of Haleigh was there also. Who is doing the ‘threating’? This information NEEDS to be shared with LE….if not Palatka LE then FBI or other LE agency. It’s entirely possible that Palatka LE has not solved this case because ‘someone’ in LE does not want it solved.
threatening…doh
Crystal Sheffield and Her Mother, motive in Haleigh Cummings Kidnap?
January 13th, 2010 radio
If Haleigh Cummings was indeed kidnapped then who had the most motive to remove this child? Law Enforcement has said this was not a stranger and the mothers side of the family have twisted that to make it seem like the father had something to do with this. Marie Griffis has spent much time on the internet on various blogs and social networking sites trying to convince people that Ron Cummings did something with Haleigh.
