Good Morning. New Thread. Come Home Haleigh.

Please come home, sweet Haleigh:rose:
Could be JasonsGranny. We know she tried to call him as he was driving up. It would be interesting if she tried earlier while he was still working. When I leave my phone in the car, I don't think to check it when I get back in the car. My phone doesn't do a continuous beep after a call. He may not have thought to look since he thought everyone was asleep. I'm just theorizing here...we don't have any info other than the one call. We won't ever know if there are no arrests because they won't release their records.
It's frustrating, isn't it?
personally, it's the first thing i do, if i leave my phone in the car (check to see if anyone's called)..you never know if something important/urgent has happened, especially if you have children at home, while at work.
different strokes for different folks
good morning rosie:seeya:

morning mel. I am a creature of habit and always check my phone when I have left it somewhere or walked away from it. Never know when the school has called about one of the kids being sick or whatever. I am just more attuned to my phone than most I guess. But that's just me. Don't know if Ron is that way.

VELEZ-MITCHELL: Once again, Misty, if you`re watching, we want your side of all of this. We`ve tried to reach you unsuccessfully.
Darren, Misty was reportedly -- and let`s face it, I have no idea if any of this happened. I don`t know Cobra. I have questions about somebody named Cobra, even though that`s nickname and he has a real name.
But Misty was reportedly according to Cobra, on board for the reenactment at first. Then she allegedly said no. Cobra claims she freaks out and then threatens to leave Ron. Any thoughts on all of this?
I think Jane was using this trying to reach the competitive child in Misty to respond. I simply wish Misty would obtain the services of an attorney so they can let her know how she may be impeding the investigation and what consequences may or may not be in front of her. JMO tho.

I want Misti to sing like a canary and tell the whole truth, warts and all. But I also realize she would probably be cutting her own throat. So fair is fair. The girl needs an attorney.
It's interesting to see how many take Cobra's word as gospel truth because it supports their POV.
I'm still waiting for him to break the case, as he implied he would be doing over a week ago.
If he's listening to the woman who saw helicopters and claimed an arrest warrant, more than one, was going to be issued before the day was out...what? almost two weeks ago now?...he's listening to the wrong group of people. That woman had people tuned into all the networks in frustration because they were waiting to see "breaking news" that never happened.
Other than what's been reported in the media from the 1st day, we know nothing except there have been no arrest warrants issued. What has been said by the media, by the main players, has been picked over and rehashed to death. But the case is where it was on Day 1. Haleigh is missing and there are no clues indicating what happened to her.
I hope she is found soon.
i don't think much of Cobra either way..if he cracks this case, great...if not, OK...the more people out actively trying to find what happened to Haleigh, the better, IMO..

ITA Rosie, if some of these rumors alleged by COBRA are in fact true, then she may be fearing consequences that aren't even pertinent to what happened to Haleigh for all we know. She's not at the top of my list for suspects, but she is at the top of the list for not providing accurate information. :thumbdown:
I can imagine after hearing RC carrying on during the 911 call that SHE WOULD BE FEARFUL for her life IF SHE WAS OUT OF THE HOME, but that has never been proven and even when the allegation was first thrown out, there was some problem determining if this was one of those "what if " rumor mill allegations that developed steam from the web or if someone had actually come forward IIRC.
The importance of this can't be underestimated IMO as that would alert TN, GGM Sykes, CC, RC and other family if Misty is sincere in wanting to help get things straightened out as well as offer info on any timeline inconsistencies IMOO. :unsure:

She feels that since she has done nothing to HaLeigh, she does not. I hope that someone can change her mind.

ITA PAT and can think back to a few cases where we have heard such only to wait months and I UNDERSTAND why it takes time too. However, when people interject themselves in these cases, they need to be responsible for their words to family and media IMO.
Last night when I was listening to the audio interview of Cobra again, I found yet another inconsistency in his statement from my POV and to think Hart or whoever asked the question ASKED ONLY ONE QUESTION and got all his chatter iis mind boggling. That said, after reading a deposition on CA with a 40 year PI, I am extremely disappointed. VERY SAD to say the least at the total lack of professionalism once again. JMO:thumbdown: JMO tho.
BRING HALEIGH HOME ALREADY!

I'm not Kathy Rae but my problem with it was the fact that that person didn't bother to state that any of that was her opinion while saying things like "we know for sure". We don't know for sure. If you want to assume something make that clear in your post. If it's your opinion then make it clear.

I read the post about the sheets being filthy..well if Misty cared enough to wash the blanket why wouldn't she wash the sheets also? To me it makes no sense to assume she only washed the blanket if the bed had been peed on...why not just leave the blanket smelly also, kind of defeats the purpose imo.

I thought Theresa said she was the one that carried Junior to LE the night of Haleigh's disappearance to be interviewed. In this video GGM Sykes is saying she was the one.

Some forget Crystal speaking out and talking about how the kids loved Misty, but that's all dismissed now due to rumors abounding. :sad:

It has never been stated the sheets were wet on .. i don't know if you have children but i know my son has gotten pee on his blanket and not on the sheets .. really easy for the blanket to get bunched up beneath a child. And since my son and I sleep on the same bed, i'd know if the sheets were wet.

I have 6! My kids bring their blankets into almost every room in the house. Sometimes when they are watching tv, sometimes when they sneak into one of the other rooms in the middle of the night to sleep.
I just can't understand the poster who thinks Misty left dirty sheets on the bed yet washes the blanket? There is no point to that, the bed will still stink if the sheets are dirty, so why bother washing the smelly blanket?

She needs to get real honest, and if she even gave a crap about that little girl, she wouldn't be so selfish, but I think shes in save Misty mode, along with Ron. They know they cant save Haleigh.
Look how Ron just scoffed, and I mean scoffed about juniors account of a black man, oh, and Misty just is rumored to be sleeping with a black man, so its not fathomable to Ron that man was in the house.
They are up to their eyeballs in this.
jmoI agree and until they get honest we may never know what happened to Haleigh.

I've never had the idea that when Misty was talking about washing Haleigh's blanket she meant a special small size blanket that was Haleigh's special blanket, I always have had the impression that it's a regular size blanket. Probably because Misty said that when Haleigh went to bed she covered her with a sheet and then when blanket was washed she covered her up with it. Special blankies are not used to cover up but to snuggle with. Any other opinions out there? I love my blankie and still sleep with it.
Edited to add: that's why I think too that it's odd that Misty would wash a blanket and not the sheets on Haleigh's bed. If a girl is sleeping and wets the bed, it's her sheets that would get wet, not necessarily the blanket. Because Misty's washing the blanket makes no sense at all I think doing this laundry is one of her detail lies or she washed the blanket because it had held Haleigh's expired body and she was getting rid of evidence.

The only thing I can think of at this time is perhaps it involves telling about participating in something illegal or straight up FEAR IF she was outside of the home.
This is largely why I think if she could confide in a lawyer and had a guarantee of trust, she might be able to open up more. I believe she might have grown up fearing LE as opposed to welcoming them for help. JMO tho and nothing more.

Then why mention washing it at all? You cannot tell when a blanket has been washed...I would hope LE checked out the washer, if there was something incriminating in the washer we would have an arrest.

When they did the walk through there were sheets on both beds but no pillow cases. Ggm Sykes straightened up the house and may have put sheets on the mattresses that were lying on the floor. Who knows if there even were sheets the night Haleigh disappeared?

However amidst all the flutter and accusations and responding to a poster who feels Ron and Misty are in it up to their necks, I was stating that if you interjected a motive such as money, and brought the baggage out, you could just as easily see them as suspect too. JMO

Please explain to me how money is a motive for Crystal and/or Chad to do something to Haleigh? We know that her CS for one child is almost the same as for the two of them. We know that nothing can change child support arrears. So what do you think the money motive is?

Edited to add: that's why I think too that it's odd that Misty would wash a blanket and not the sheets on Haleigh's bed. If a girl is sleeping and wets the bed, it's her sheets that would get wet, not necessarily the blanket. Because Misty's washing the blanket makes no sense at all I think doing this laundry is one of her detail lies or she washed the blanket because it had held Haleigh's expired body and she was getting rid of evidence. JMHO
Good post, Owl. I have had some of the same suspicious thoughts concerning Misti and the laundry she supposedly did that night. Something is not quite right about it, sort of sets off my hinky meter.
If Misti did not come home from her bender until Monday daytime, which I don't know when she came home just guessing, she would have no idea about what shape Haleigh's bed was in. I still have the feeling the first response from Misti is correct that Haleigh was sleeping in the bed with her and Jr. jmo

Look how Ron just scoffed, and I mean scoffed about juniors account of a black man, oh, and Misty just is rumored to be sleeping with a black man, so its not fathomable to Ron that man was in the house.
They are up to their eyeballs in this.

<snipped>
If Junior related that someone was in the house - that would support Misty & Ron's claim that Misty did nothing, that she is innocent of any wrongdoing & that someone pried the lock or otherwise entered the home through a locked door. But instead of taking the position of "oh look - even my son can verify & support our story" - Ron scoffs at it. I keep asking myself why Ron would be so quick to negate that story when it helps, rather than hurts, his & Misty's assertion that Haleigh disappeared because someone came into the home & took her.

The only problem is that with adding that she opened herself to more scrutiny from LE because she stated she washed it. This girl is street smart, she knows if she mentions washing blankets on the night a child disappears someone will definitely take notice of it.

Ron wants to handle the person himself; he doesn't want to leave it up to LEC. He said as much in the initial 911 call and again when he said he was going to take out the trash when it was time.
Having said this, I don't blame Ron for wanting to deal with the evildoer himself. I've often thought to myself, after seeing that the criminal justice system is all about justice for criminals, that if someone were to hurt one of my kids I wouldn't count on the system for justice I'd handle it myself.

Gosh, you guys sure know how to clear a room, lol.
I know this is common knowledge for most of you but is the building for Crystal's foundation donated? Is the money to run her (or rather Haleigh's) foundation donated or is she self-supporting it? Thanks.
I read earlier that it was a closed pizza place and that the owner normally charged 1500. per month rent, but was giving a reduced price of 500. per month. I think the purple paint was donated. I also get the impression that CS is living there as it was mentioned that it was open 24/7 for tips. They are selling T-shirts, bracelets, etc. Before they took the website down, it was asking for donations for CS to use to buy clothes for RC & Cloe among other things. By the way the web page has changed this AM. Before it was saying "under construction". Now there is a message that say something if you are the owner of the web page to click for instructions on how to get you information posted. JMO

I personally don't see the fear in Misty towards RC that most of you do.
She partied all weekend, she refused to do the walk thru and threatened to leave him according to Cobra....she also walked out of the interview. I think she associates with characters a lot worse than RC. Cousin Joe, Greg, etc. I do think that RC knows what the deal is with Greg...if he cares about an affair I doubt he would still be with her. Cousin Joe also, he is adamant about him not being there and about the fight they didn't have. This has drugs written all over it. People invoved in this activity do not act (as we would call) normal. I think that is what's frustrating LE they can 't get a straight story. I do hope Jr. is o.k. with GGM. Until this mess is settled I am worried about that little boy as well. It is obvious he did see something.IMO

Just a few thoughts. RE Misty getting an attorney. That costs beacoup bucks and a retainer has to be paid up front. Maybe no one has volunteered their service yet, because they don't know how much might be involved.
JR's story about Black man. He sure didn't seem to interested in relaying info to GR. Could have been because of the cameras, etc. I think what he told LE at the very beginning will be considered more reliable than what is reported he said a couple or more weeks after the fact.
Whenever I see a viral, hate spewing post about either side, I see that as being a person who is closely connected to the people they are supporting and just skip on thru it.
I'm just glad I'm not in LE's position. Seems they have people phoning in tips that are as far out as some of the things that are posted on message boards. Also, I don't care for blogs. They just give the blogger a format to post their opinion. Also some of the owners receive a fee everytime someone goes to the blog site. I think that is the reason they join message board and link to their site. It is providing income to them.
Having said all the above, I just want this case resolved and the bricks fall where they may. Too many people who loved Haleigh are hurting. They need to get their lives back, although they were never be the same.

I don't think LE would leave the last person to see Haleigh alive, alone in the tailer. I would think that LE would want to question Ron and Misty separately. LE questioning Misty in the trailer makes sense to me, becuase she was in the trailer when Haliegh was taken. If she was there w/LE they were probably careful not to touch potential evidence.
As to who took Jr. to LE, I'm don't know if it was Sykes or Neves. I don't know that it matters all that much. I think Mrs. Sykes lives fairly close. I can understand why a family member would have called her when they found out Haleigh was missing, though..

Make yourself incoherent, yeah, then they can't use that against you. It was a lame decision on his part. And, one I might add that will make me never let him off the hook in this case. For those who have missed the body language between ron and misty; you've not seen abuse and control up close and personal as it's there from the 911 call onward.

OH No JD I believe real men have feelings and they can cry. What ron was doing was an act, and he didn't get one over on me, that's all hon.
Don't take it personally, I love men who cry. RC was not "crying" that night on the 911 call, he was directing misty to call, so that he was not the one who was caught on tape. His blubbering was a red flag to me, and I believe it was an act. That's my impression though, I've got him pegged. I truly doubt I will be wrong in this case.
I think that the problem in this home was RC and I'm sticking to my gut feelings, of what a controlling abuser looks and acts like. Listen to the 911 tape again. No I'm sorry, no man with an ounce of true love for his child would do this on the most important call of his life.
I'm sorry about that. That's my take on him and I'm sticking to it.
He is an abusive man, he controls young girls, impregnates them and then takes the children from them in a vindictive manner. IT's a win for him, it's not about love or whats best for the child. It's all about Him.
and his hdtv in the bedroom and his computer, and his underage girls that he likes to knock up. I can't put it any nicer than that. The problem in this case is RC and that will one day most likely come to light in the charges.
I totally agree with this post. He was "blubbering" in that one video where he's wearing a striped polo shirt and holding a picture of Haleigh. I saw that first before I heard the 911 call and that video is where I got his number. I think it's the one where he said he was going to take out the trash when it was time. That whole episode that was on video I believe was an act.

JD I dont know how to even say this nicely and being diplomatic is not my strong point. I will say that every single child I've ever known as a bed wetter, has always smelled. Maybe not every day; but most days.
Don't you remember the bed wetters that you went to school with? I remember almost all of the ones in my classses. Why? Because they wreaked of urine for the most part. The teachers knew.....teachers did not have a lot of control then and also this is a hygiene issue. She was just starting school but missed so much and the missing day's are a huge issue with me. I think that the whole bedroom would have smelled, her mattress would have smelled, to any of us that would have entered that night upon the scene of her missing. Maybe things were cleaned up later, but what LE came across I'm sure was not pretty. And Im 100% positive that that trailer wreaked of urine. From the laundry at the back door to the bedroom.
In most homes, when you have a bedwetter, and you try to ignore it and let it run it's course, you wash wash wash the clothing sheets and everything on a daily basis and it's take a lot of patience. Something I see RC does not have. Misty? I'm not so sure; I think she has a huge problems though, from intelligence to legal it won't be long until she is put in cuffs and taken in. It's just sad that in this case, the public is not outside their door, clamoring for her to be taken out of the community like they did in Caylee's case.
Does anyone know if the washing machine was broken in that place?

JMO I agree, look at past missing person cases of which there are many. I think the person or persons just need events to fall into place.
I remember a case in San Antonio where a man killed his step daughter in a rage, wrapped her body in an area rug and then put her in a nearby dumpster. It was never found, he was later found guilty of another crime but never charged with this one.
Being smart has nothing to do with it, because if the person was smart, they wouldn't kill another human being.

IF there home was a "normal" functional home, I would think that would be very probable, it just doesn't seem to me that it was, moo, of course.
My daughter wet the bed till she was almost 7 and that was before overnight pull ups, she was born in 1974 (I was a very young mother), but we tried, we woke her up every night before we went to bed, maybe 10 or 11 ish, supported her half asleep body over the toidy and hoped, sometimes it worked, sometimes not, along with stopping any fluids at least 2 hours before bedtime. I do know that on the mornings that it had not worked, I stripped the bed, washed off the plastic mattress cover, opened the windows to air the room and of course, laundered ALL the bedclothes. I also used baby powder before putting the sheets back on and remaking the bed, just to be sure my child did not have that pizzy smell on her at all. She never went to school or anywhere else before she was completely bathed, hair washed, etc. It was a pain in the butt chore, especially if it was 3 or 4 times a week, but, as a parent, it had to be done, her Dad knew the whole routine and he also participated, as well.
I am not seeing Ron and Misty's house as one of planning ahead or having necessary supplies on hand, with just Ron working, one income to pay all the household bills, vehicle bills, etc, I doubt money was a strong suit there. I also doubt that Misty was a concientious list making, coupon cutting grocery shopper, she just doesn't seem to have come from a "Martha Stewart" type background, again MOO, formed from what I have observed of the family scenerios. The bed wetting was probably not handled per what child rearing experts write books about, it was more likely, "you peed the bed, AGAIN!", followed by a smack. Overnighters or Pullups are probably not cheap, another extra when you barely have enough grocery money.
I could be completely way off here, just my opinion on the bed wetting issue. I do think it has a lot to do with whatever happened to Haleigh, for the simple reason that Misty always mentions something about a blanket or blankets, in every version of her story. I can't even begin to fill in the blanks in the story, just some thoughts, concerning the issue and I do think that Ktee is pretty right on in alot she posts about what she thinks happened.
Continued Hope for Haleigh :wub:

Yes yes, hey ya'll I totally disagree but love you all still anyway :D
I believe her bed and linens were urine soaked. She was a bed wetter, I would have to garner a bet she stunk most of the time, and her living conditions were filthy. We only saw what that hole looked like after it was all cleaned up by teresa and granny and others, as they knew it was unacceptable. The way LE found that trailer, that's what will stand in their reports. The reports are that she is a bed wetter, and washing a blankey doesnt cut it in my mind. I think she got slapped or slapped around for wetting their bed or her bed, again and someone lost it. Whether this happened the night before, that night or that afternoon I don't know. So for me; I believe from all we've seen and heard from these two "parents" is that they were not providing for these two kids, they were not living in healthy loving conditions and they certainly were not clean conditions. CPS has the records, and it will all come out in the wash.
Something Im still not sure of, was the washing machine in that trailer even working? Why did granny have to bring over wash? I'm wondering if it even worked. And I'm still on board that they found something behind the area of that water heater, stains, decomp, something. Maybe even hair. Who knows at this point. I think it's clear that these two babies probably were being raised around tweakers and that ususally means a lot of neglect from eating to bathing to sleeping conditions. The sleeping conditions, already verified.
I think that Misty found out after she put her to bed, that she wet the bed again, and interrupted her little tryst. This enraged the little housemouse and viola we have a recipe for disaster infanticide and or homicidal rage on a child. This does happen often in cases of bed wetting. It takes a patient parent and a skilled and knowledgeable one to help a child through this difficult stage. RC and MC are not this. They don't fit the profile. It's more apt that one of them put her little body in the trash at some point, and moved her several times. i dont believe the abduction theory at all. I'm not sure LE does either, because they've only been in their own backyard and home to search for this poor little child. Which tells anyone with a smidgen of case knowledge that they are looking at the family here, and no where else.
It's very possible that when LE first searched the trailer for her, they missed behind the water heater area. And she was stuffed there for a time, so that is possible. It's also posssible that after, maybe cadaver dogs continually hit on that area so they tore it down and took the walls with them. I'm going to wait until they finally charge this pair of unfit parents, until then I can only go on what comes out of their mouths, how they act and how their family acts. These are always the best indicators in a case. And so far, this family gets a failing grade from me, a total F in fact. F failure to raise your kids love them and keep them safe, let alone provide the usual necessities for them. Like a clean home, food and a safe environment.

Nice story you should write fiction, after all that is all that post is. It isn't even based on fact.
ZERO- evidence of "tweeking"
ZERO- evidence the house was in poor condition
Absolute evidence that the environment was not a horrible life that the children needed taken from.
ZERO evidence she "stunk all the time" just the opposite school officials saw no sign of abuse or neglect.
And what has always bothered me is the whole bed wetting issue- all I ever heard was that Haleigh's blanket smelled of pee- not that she was a bed wetter- for all we know Jr peed on the blanket or Haleigh had a simple accident the night before.

rofl. You know what I still want to know, how much this "couple" was tuned into the the anthony case. Did they see this as an oppt to obtain large sums of money? Is this a copycat case? Did they think they could do it better? Did they? I think so. I've thought so from the start. IF something happened and she died that night in the trailer, they then hid her body. After some reflection they realize this could be golden, they would be on national television!! They would be STARS!
Kill a child, get on TV, get book deals, movie rights royalties (sorry I dont think they even know what those are) etc etc.
They had those little placards and buttons made up so fast my head spun. So, I have a huge problem with what they've told LE, and Im sure that when LE does feel they have all their ducks in a row legally, that RC and MC will be behind bars, most likely where they both belong.
I believe she is dead, I'm not going to delude myself. I may be hardened but it sure helps me to look at the real deal in a case. I dont believe the entruder theory for a second. From the cinder bock onward, and I also don't believe RC huge attempt on the air to say that he never went in his own backyard, didnt' even know cinder blocks were in his backyard, and if they are he never saw them dada da da.......
sorry RC. To a trained eye, you are on the front burner in this case.
What happened earlier in the day with the gun is key. Heck for all we know there was an accidental discharge and it hit Haliegh in the head.
RC then ditched the gun and her body and viola! I have a missing chil' someone stole' her outta my bed.......(waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)
That's my take on it and I'm sticking to it.

Around our property here, it is sort of rural, there are several old dug wells from long ago when people used them for water. It is so easy to drop a body or trash or whatever in those wells and never see it again. I have wondered if it is that way where the Cummings live. Or big holes that are not filled in. just me thinking weird thoughts maybe.
I am in agreement that Ronald is a "put on". More mouth than anything. Just a thug really, and a jerk. This is all my opinion. He seemed to want to get it on tape that he was going to kill blab, blab, blab....on the 911 call. That did not sit right with me. I am a pretty good reader of people and I read that Ron's behavior was inappropriate, moreso than Misti's on that 911 call. I got the impression that he already knew about Haleigh before he came in the front door. That's why he didn't grab a flashlight and go looking outside for her and calling her name when he first got home. He knew she was no where around. He wanted the 911 operator to think he was soooo upset he was going to kill someone. Ron needs acting lessons. jmo

Which is why I think RC is running the show, has been since his blubbering 911 call. GMAB! What kind of MAN would do this on the 911 call? A man with a lot to hide, that's who. Make yourself incoherent, yeah, then they can't use that against you. It was a lame decision on his part. And, one I might add that will make me never let him off the hook in this case. For those who have missed the body language between ron and misty; you've not seen abuse and control up close and personal as it's there from the 911 call onward.

I agree, it doesn't take a rocket scientist. We would all sleep better if we thought that committing the "perfect" murder was very difficult to do and one had to be very very cunning, intelligent whatever to do so. I believe we are deluding ourselves, it is very easy to "get away with murder" just look at Trenton Duckett and several other high profile deaths/disappearances for confirmation.
There is absolutely no proof that Trenton Duckett is dead, no offense intended, but maybe another example?

It still bothers me that people feel his emotions are all staged. I am a stoic person (except for TV shows and commercials which make me cry like a baby) but in real life events I am solid as a rock. Yet I have been nothing but a blubbering idiot for 2 days because it looks like my cat might have to be put down today- Never in a million years would I have imagined I'd fall apart this way and my husband would be the rock (when his cat died 25 years ago I had to deal with all of it he couldn't)

I am doing this one time and one time only. I am not a mean person, I do not call people names, I am not a hypocrite, I have never been rude to one person here. I am interested only in Haleigh and the truth. After this I will not respond to any more of your posts regarding this because I do not have to defend my right to be saddened by the misinformation stated as fact. So you do as you choose. Please ignore my posts if you desire. That is what I do when I find someone who is serially misleading or baiting. Then I put them out of my mind. The only reason I actually commented today is I have become overwhelmed the last couple of days with all of the meanness and hypocrisy EVERYWHERE. I keep it too myself though and don't go getting ppl in trouble .. i just move on and/or ignore.
So here is the ONE point i will make to you without any further talk to you on the issue .. take it as you wish. Today after all i have witnessed lately i just cannot care because i cannot expose my spirit to any more deliberate unkindness.
The previous poster stated "She was a bed wetter, I would have to garner a bet she stunk most of the time, and her living conditions were filthy."
Completely unsubstantiated and in fact disputed by Haleigh's mother and her teachers.
And that's all I have to say about that.

What a nice visual you painted patty of you and your dh dealing with your daughter's pesky little problem. Your home during her childhood sounds blissful. Speaks loudly as to the parenting you gave of yourself. I only wish Haleigh and Junior had a bit of it. Alas, in what I perceive Ron's life was like I see little room for that. Hopefully when Theresa took care of them, they received some TLC. I'm not faulting Ron for not going the extra mile, it is what it is, men, especially young men, with their testerone levels peaking aren't focusing on those little extras. Would the children have been better off with Crystal as the custodial parent, I just don't know.
moo
Well, it wasn't exactly mother goose happy land, I know there were more than one "o no, not again's" exclaimed, especially if I was working or had other stuff to do, but it was never treated in anger and for sure not physically. I assume I was raised with that much common sense, plus she was the first girl in a very long line of boy babies in her Dad's family, so she was treated like the little princess that she wasn't :(
I agree, men are not really born with those extra special "mothering" instincts and I have no doubt that Misty did not magically develop them in her short "mother" career. Crystal, in the other hand may well have had the instincts and foresight, we will just never know because of all the circumstances involving her non custodial status.
This whole thing is a huge puzzle, much like TD's was, again I hope and pray for a conclusion and not the never ending heartbreak of not knowing.

The fact still remains, Haleigh disappeared without a trace from ronald cummings trailer. You are so right and there is no evidence that either Crystal or Chad was even near the home that night. None whatsoever, and why would they do such a thing? It wouldn't absolve them of what Crystal owes for both children or will owe for Ron Jr. even if Haleigh was no longer living. Whoever took Haleigh away from her home that night wanted to do her harm for their own evil selfish reasons.

Doesn't DCF make a home visit when a complaint is filed in Florida? I would think if the conditions were as described, they would have been actively involved in removing the children IMO.

Crystal said he was abusive. His treatment of Misty in the 911 call was abusive. The way he acted going to get the marriage license, and at the wedding was abusive. I think the word abuse is in a gray area of interpretation. But since it is being brought up over and over and that Child Protective Services was called, there had to be something to it.
Then add in the pictures of the children with scrapes and bruises and Haleigh missing school so often and the concern that was mentioned by the family with hints of drug use, physical abuse and unsanitary living conditions.... these accusations can not be ignored.
I know from just watching the video of Ron and Misty that he acts hostile and uncaring toward her, she might be OK with it and if she is that is her own business. If he is this way with his new bride, might he not be this way with others even his children when he is in a less than cheerful mood?
Whether he is directly involved in what happened to his daughter or not, like Misty they both are impeding the investigation. After extensive reading and studying this case up to this point, this is my opinion.

Thanks, emdragon! And I agree 100 percent!! There was zero signs of abuse! When are people going to STOP stating things as fact that simply aren't true.
Zero signs of abuse? How could you possibly know that? How do you know that Ron did not speak to his children the same way he spoke to Misty? How do you know that Crystal's allegations of abuse were false?
I don't have a problem when people make it plain that they are posting an opinion or a theory.
ITA that it would be nice if there were fewer posts that assert one thing or another as being the truth, before enough of the story has been revealed to know. Your post which states as fact that there were zero signs of abuse fits that category. You don't know.

Yes, I've said quite a few times and haven't killed anyone.
We'll have to agree to disagree on this one. I believe the fact that you regularly threaten to kill somebody reflects more on you than on the veracity of whether or not threatening to kill someone is abusive.

Doesn't DCF make a home visit when a complaint is filed in Florida? I would think if the conditions were as described, they would have been actively involved in removing the children IMO. But then again, I don't believe it was in the condition some are trying to claim it was. IT's like Camp Crystal and the pictures. They just were not as depicted imo and that's why NG came down so hard. JMOOC.
You are so right about where the smell came from. I didn't even think about that, but it certainly could have been from either child if that's the case. :wink: JMO
Candy: For what it is worth...I don't think much of DCF in Florida. That comes from 10 years of living down here & reading the daily newspaper. This article is about a feral child...but believe me we have kids slipping thru the cracks far too often.
"THE GIRL IN THE WINDOW"
ttp://tampabay.com/features/humaninterest/article750838.ece
Why? Didn’t they worry about two separate calls to the hotline, months apart, citing the same concerns?
“It’s not automatic that because the home is dirty we’d remove the child,” said Nick Cox, regional director of the Florida Department of Children and Families. “And what they found in 2002 was not like the scene they walked into in 2005.”
The aim, he said, is to keep the child with the parent, and try to help the parent get whatever services he or she might need. But Michelle refused help. And investigators might have felt they didn’t have enough evidence to take Danielle, Cox said.
“I’m concerned, though, that no effort was made to interview the child,” he said.
“If you have a 4-year-old who is unable to speak, that would raise a red flag to me. “I’m not going to tell you this was okay. I don’t know how it could have happened"

Well, Chad has no financial responsibility towards Haleigh and Crystal, as we know, wasn't paying hers. I see absolutley no financial motive for Crystal to have done anything to Haleigh. None.
The fact still remains, Haleigh disappeared without a trace from ronald cummings trailer.
I think you might be ignoring what I posted to start with and choosing to use a location vs who might have abducted Haleigh Cummings. JMO tho. I have stated repeatedly that I'm still hanging on for a live Haleigh being found/brought back.
So if I were turning around the wild and not so wild theories on the Ron Misty involvement in her abduction and applying the thought process to the maternal side, I offer the following.
I believe the courts sent something out that week concerning back support. Is that how you remember it?
IF CRYSTAL had decided they couldn't afford the support, or that having custody would be more beneficial, it's possible a plan had been made to get Haleigh and Junior out of the house, up to their county and that plan went awry. (Although I have to insert my opinion here - CS had those children every two weeks and hasn't given a shot at beating the door down to family court with the children as evidence for an EMERGENCY HEARING from what I've seen.)
Again, they are not high on my list of suspects but LE has stated everyone is a SUSPECT IIRC. I believe I was very clear on them not being high on my list either, and yes I believe CS withheld information too in the beginning.
We know in the beginning Crystal was very supportive and saying things that are contradictory to what she is presenting now.
Was that not Crystal who was comforting RC in the first few days? Yet she had some of these pics stashed away? She originally stated she was not seeking custody, then eventually her attorney said yes they were and now we are back to letting the investigation go... FGS, what were they saving the pictures for?
I know Kim alleges all these new complaints, but I am thinking it will be more of the same on hearsay like when Johnny Sheffield presented his affadavit last time. These people don't seem to follow through, but we know at some point Haleigh was getting her medical treatment. I wish I could say the same now.:wub:
Oh BTW, I agree that Haleigh Cummings was abducted from her home in the middle of the night.
Praying for a miracle for Haleigh Cummings and her family! :wub:

I have 6! My kids bring their blankets into almost every room in the house. Sometimes when they are watching tv, sometimes when they sneak into one of the other rooms in the middle of the night to sleep.
I just can't understand the poster who thinks Misty left dirty sheets on the bed yet washes the blanket? There is no point to that, the bed will still stink if the sheets are dirty, so why bother washing the smelly blanket?
Misty made a POINT of the washing of the blanket. Said when she put Haleigh to be she noticed the blanket smelled like pee. Obviously she would have had to remove the blanket earlier if she had washed the sheets so obviously it was the same sheets from the night before. I am sorry if you have boys that may wet the blanket but not the bed.Girls don't work that way.It doesn't go upward, it soaks you underneath.
The surmissal is that the sheets had to be urine tainted if the blanket was. She didn't state anything about washing the bedding. She was very specific about having taken down the blanket from the window and described another in the "van". SHe thought it was important enough to make a point of it. IMO yes IMO the sheets were soiled and she was left to sleep on them. I consider that filth. AGAIN, JMOO.:cursing:

It's interesting to see how many take Cobra's word as gospel truth because it supports their POV.
I'm still waiting for him to break the case, as he implied he would be doing over a week ago.
If he's listening to the woman who saw helicopters and claimed an arrest warrant, more than one, was going to be issued before the day was out...what? almost two weeks ago now?...he's listening to the wrong group of people. That woman had people tuned into all the networks in frustration because they were waiting to see "breaking news" that never happened.
Other than what's been reported in the media from the 1st day, we know nothing except there have been no arrest warrants issued. What has been said by the media, by the main players, has been picked over and rehashed to death. But the case is where it was on Day 1. Haleigh is missing and there are no clues indicating what happened to her.
I hope she is found soon.
Pat, I'm pages and pages behind but I just wanted to say I appreciate your post. That same woman is the one who hired the Anthony's PI, at least according to her. I feel bad for LE having to wade through all of this to find the truth.

I thought Theresa said she was the one that carried Junior to LE the night of Haleigh's disappearance to be interviewed. In this video GGM Sykes is saying she was the one.
http://www.fox30online.com/mediacenter/local.aspx?videoid=30118@video.fox30online.com&navCatId=5
I never read or saw that. The first reports I ever saw, it was always GGM that took him. Where did you see differently? She is the one that was interviewed about it and the experts interviewing Jr told her (according to her) that his story kept changing.
Mimi428
03-26-2009, 03:06 PM
Excellent link- so Junior says the couch was bouncing and the guy had squeaky shoes. Interesting- TY
One of the things that stood out for me in that story was this part...
“A lot of the times we hear things from 8 different people who did not know each other including eyewitnesses..."
This is pretty much what I was thinking would happen. That different people who do not specifically know one another could/would tell essentially the same info about what was going on in that household. The mystery for me is in wondering how many of those folks also told LE what they knew vs how many told the attorney & maybe the PI - but did not want to tell LE.
Let's say for the sake of theory only that drugs were being sold out of the house...if you had bought drugs from the two older people in that house you might not be inclined to go to the police & say "I know drugs were being sold from there because I have personally bought drugs from that location &/or from Ron for the past 2 years".
People in that situation are more likely than not to want to protect their ability to continue to get drugs & to stay out of jail. They may feel bad on some level that Haleigh is missing, but do not see how their personal history of buying drugs from either Ron &/or Misty is going to break the case, provide the most important clue.

Oh, its not just their necks, its to their EYEBALLS!
I know for a fact Crystal Sheffield, was two hours away the night her daughter was snatched from a girl who is lying about her story that night, its ever changing!! Misty did not lose a puppy, she lost Crystals child, and it happened on her watch, thats a FACT. She isn't going to get a free pass from me, right now shes number one on the list, not just shuffled off the list, any chick who leaves a myspace message to Rons former child girlfriend saying she is going to get her man and kid, is capable of just about anything.

03-26-2009, 03:16 PM
Is there a transcript of the conversation between Crystal Sheffield and Craig Rivera when Jr. was present?
I am trying to think this through and come up with a sequence of events.
I know that Ronald said he thinks that the story Crystal attributes to jr. is made up but he also said he isn't sure what little jr saw since he wasn't there.
So, under the premise that it is true (not stating it is but doing a 'what if' thing)..
I THINK crystal said jr said he saw Haleigh being picked up from the mattress .. is that accurate?
He said Misty was sleeping .. accurate?
He also saw a man in black or black man in black.
He heard squeaky shoes.
Did he HEAR or FEEL the couch bounce? do we have clarification on that?
Is that all that we have heard about jr's account so far?
Once we have it all posted in one post accurately,
would anyone like to help me in devising a sequence
of events where all of the account could be true?
For instance, if Misty was asleep she could not have been a part
of the bouncing couch .. so why would the man be on the couch and were his shoes squeaking at the same time that the couch was bouncing? That might indicate he was climbing onto or off of the couch, perhaps through a window...
Anyone want to help me along with this please?

DATED: 03-26-2009, 01:20 AM Post #367
Who knows where the urine soaked bed story came from. Just gossip if I had to guess. Gossip originating on the forums and blogs...
Our sons may be related....cause one kid-o-mine could be a real mess maker in his day.
His bedroom door was REQUIRED to be shut.
I've known a lot of people in brick and mortar homes and several in mobile homes in my time.
Dirty homes and abuse toward kids are not limited to those in the mobile homes.
Far from it. I too wonder where that started in this case...?
Ron does seem to be doing well by his children. Apparently he has been reported and investigated several times, yet the kids remain in his care...
He must be doing something right.
I personally don't believe the abuse allegations. Spanking, yes... Abuse? Not so much IMHO.
Like you, I've seen dads who simply walk away rather than support their children.
I respect Ron for trying to do his best.
OT:
Also why do they call a mobile home a "trailer" and don't call a regular home a "framing and siding"?
Maybe a snub?
Whole other thread there I guess lol. I tend to lump them all together as 'houses', but thats just me.
:wub:KathyRae, whether we agree all the time or not, it's never been a prerequisite for me girlie!
I too am wondering about those who must call it so and so's trailer as opposed to Haleigh's home?????
I am left believing it's a way of snubbing him without realizing it's really snubbing a sweet innocent little girl and boy who clearly loved their family IMO.
I've been guest in mobile homes, and pre-fabs that hold the love of a family much more than the several million dollar homes we visit with the children suffering to be on their best behavior so they don't mess anything up. Bottom line for me is whether it's really a HOME or not. :wink: JMO tho.
Also, some people are troubled by CS being called the bio-mom when in fact now Haleigh has a step-mom too IMO. I am guessing that is to establish who they are speaking about and avoid any misstatements IMO.
When Crystal marries Chad, he will be the step-dad and Ron will be called the bio-dad IMO. I don't see trauma with that. JMO tho.
Praying for a miracle for Haleigh and her family. :wub:

moo
I'm afraid that I have to agree with you. Why do posters go off on these tangents to denigrate this family when they know little or nothing about they're daily lives. Many families survive in less than ideal circumstances, but they do survive and even thrive.
I don't much like some of the choices that RC has made. In fact, I don't much like his personality. But there is no reason for me to believe that he is not a suffering parent. It seems like he was doing the best he could for the kids. He had help and support from his family. So until I know differently, my moral support is with Ron and his family.
rofl. You know what I still want to know, how much this "couple" was tuned into the the anthony case. Did they see this as an oppt to obtain large sums of money? Is this a copycat case? Did they think they could do it better? Did they? I think so. I've thought so from the start. IF something happened and she died that night in the trailer, they then hid her body. After some reflection they realize this could be golden, they would be on national television!! They would be STARS!
Kill a child, get on TV, get book deals, movie rights royalties (sorry I dont think they even know what those are) etc etc.
They had those little placards and buttons made up so fast my head spun. So, I have a huge problem with what they've told LE, and Im sure that when LE does feel they have all their ducks in a row legally, that RC and MC will be behind bars, most likely where they both belong.
I believe she is dead, I'm not going to delude myself. I may be hardened but it sure helps me to look at the real deal in a case. I dont believe the entruder theory for a second. From the cinder bock onward, and I also don't believe RC huge attempt on the air to say that he never went in his own backyard, didnt' even know cinder blocks were in his backyard, and if they are he never saw them dada da da.......
sorry RC. To a trained eye, you are on the front burner in this case.
What happened earlier in the day with the gun is key. Heck for all we know there was an accidental discharge and it hit Haliegh in the head.
RC then ditched the gun and her body and viola! I have a missing chil' someone stole' her outta my bed.......(waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)
That's my take on it and I'm sticking to it.
Kat
Lose a child today and it opens up all kinds on monetary opportunities. how sick is that. they all cash in in between their grief. something profound happens, Take George for instance, his daughter is charged with murdering his grandchild. He is out and about scouting a "finding missing children foundation" . He and Cindy would not allow a search for their grandchild. His boat will search ponds, are you laughing out loud yet. ? Since when? It is possible George and Cindy were helped her dispose of Caylee. giving false evidence (hairbrush). George is walking around like a freaking bigshot. a bigshot. Most parents of these murdered children I hate to say eventually profited . all of themif you are going to make money give it to charities.

So here is the ONE point i will make to you without any further talk to you on the issue .. take it as you wish. Today after all i have witnessed lately i just cannot care because i cannot expose my spirit to any more deliberate unkindness.
The previous poster stated "She was a bed wetter, I would have to garner a bet she stunk most of the time, and her living conditions were filthy."

Hi,
I don't know that would be possible on an arrest in and of itself, as the wording arrest might indicate you haven't had a chance to defend yourself. I might find that could be applicable if there are felony convictions. JMO

It's not that she doesn't care- it's another lie about what really was going on. There has been the question of "blankets" since day two when Misti made the statment about her blanket being in the van- that "they "took.
I will take it a step further and ask- why all the explanation of blankets? Is there a blanket that is missing or one found at the home that does not belong there? IMO

She wouldn't have washed just the blanket and not the sheets if they were urine soiled. Unless there were no sheets on the bed and she only slept on a mattress. And quite frankly, Misty has changed her statements numerous times, who's to say the blanket was washed really? I personally don't believe that Misty remembers all the doings of that night due to overindulging on something. moo

jmo
That's one of my working in progress theories 51viking. IF she got Jr off the couch when she went to bed, she could have made up her bed after washing her sheets and also Haleigh's blanket. How I wish someone would interview Misty for us...with simple plain English questions and followups. I just don't think we can get the whole story with little five minute interviews here and there. Sometimes, the answer really does depend on how the question is phrased. Haleigh may have slept in her bed in the end but that doesn't mean she didn't start out watching her movie in the big bed.
So many questions...I don't think Nancy Grace is the one to do it if Misty was willing. She talks over her guests and doesn't always followup. Greta would be good but she doesn't seem to care about this case.

Nice story you should write fiction, after all that is all that post is. It isn't even based on fact.
ZERO- evidence of "tweeking"
ZERO- evidence the house was in poor condition
Absolute evidence that the environment was not a horrible life that the children needed taken from.
ZERO evidence she "stunk all the time" just the opposite school officials saw no sign of abuse or neglect.
And what has always bothered me is the whole bed wetting issue- all I ever heard was that Haleigh's blanket smelled of pee- not that she was a bed wetter- for all we know Jr peed on the blanket or Haleigh had a simple accident the night before.

Haleigh is a beauty.
I did notice this. May have been wearing a pink shirt.:confused:
imo
Yurp Pochette, totally agree. And isn't it rule #1 not to trash the other parent? If memory serves me correctly, Crystal usually made her plea for Haleigh including "mommy and daddy love you" and she also would say "yes, Ronald's heart is Haleigh" but never once did I hear Ron say anything remotely close about Crystal, not even so much to defend Crystal or to mutter a "mommy loves you" even though Haleigh was missing in Ron's home on Ron's time.
I know the both of them have slung mud at each other, however at least you can pull a little niceness out of Crystal with the plea's and claims of Ronalds love for Haleigh. Can't say the same about Ron.
jmo
That was a nice touch on Crystal's part saying that"mommy and daddy love you" but how do we know that she meant Ron the daddy,and not Chad.Maybe since she was planning a marriage with Chad she had Haleigh call Chad daddy.It isn't likely that she meant Chad,but it is possible.
Ron's first comment against Crystal was on the Today show.Other than that I don't recall him saying much against Crystal.
I don't have links,but the day the board was shut down,I went back and looked at some of the older video's.At one of the vigils I saw Crystal crying,and Ron reached for Crystal and put his arms around her and held her while she cried.
On another video at a church service,Ron motioned for Crystal to sit next to him so I do see support from Ron towards Crystal,but more in deed than words.IMO
I don't know why we have to pit one parent against the other.I'm sure they both love and miss Haleigh.IMO

Hey playnice.
Is the 911 call still available?
At one point Ron told Misty while she was on the ohone that he had *better people* coming over. While Misty was speaking, I think you can hear Ron talking in the background on his phone.. I'm curious as to who these *better people* that Ron summouned to look for Haleigh. I need to listen to that 911 call again.
moo
I think the 911 calls are posted up on youtube.I did a re-listen the other day and caught something pretty funny that I didn't hear the first few times.Almost gives me a grudging respect of Misty.
We all know that Ron was all over the place that night,and towards the end of the 911 call,I think I hear Misty say with what sounds like gritted teeth,'I swear if you don't'......I think she was getting angry at Ron.I didn't hear this before.
I was thinking maybe Ron was thinking TN could help him more since she works as a dispatcher? Obviously he didn't think anyone was coming fast enough and that is understandable considering his state of mind at the time.IMO

Interviewing children under 5 years of age is more difficult than many believe. In the first place unless you talk to the child without the parent present, the presence of the parent (the alleged abuser) will put the child in a very awkward and intimidating situation which causes negative emotional impact. If the child implicates a parent, you always fear the repercussions when and if the child returns home. There is a definite skill to interviewing techniques when dealing with a child. They are very easily led by the interviewer. If you have the rare opportunity to talk to a child without your visit being announced it is ideal for talking to the chil:, too often the caregiver "rehearses" the child or threatens them to "say what I tell you" when they know you are coming to the home. I have even experienced quilty parents telling a child "Santa doesn't bring presents to little boys who tell stories on their Mommy". If you are unsure about leading questions, here's an example: "Junior, tell Mommy about the big old bad black man dressed in ugly black clothes who came into your room and hurt your sister" or the same question with Mommy present during interview, i.e., " tell the social worker about the big bad black man who...", as Mommy raises her eyebrows and glares at the child. And it is very,very rare that the Family Court ever wants to put a child on the stand to testify against a parent. I doubt any Guardian-ad-Litem would allow it unless ordered to do so. The most valuable statement a child can make,imo, is one that encompasses age appropriate wording. Detailed descriptions for a young child (with too many adjectives) are not common. I would be inclined to believe, for example, "a black man came into..." rather than "a black man in black clothes came into...". Sounds like a prompt of "what was the black man wearing when he came into...?" was interjected. The child's statement has to be taken into context and any delay after an incident only makes a statement less reliable. Of course, all of the above is JMOO. In this case, who besides bio -mom heard the child utter this statement or answer the question posed? Actually,if the child is asked a question, what was the question? Do we know here?
I don't disagree with what you've said but an interview on television is nothing like an interview like you discussed. How do you know the official, if you want to call it that, interview with Jr did not go down exactly how you say a good interview should? What is said on television is entertainment not evidence.

Yes.That was my thought that maybe he thought TN knew some people that she could call on in the department to get him better faster service.In his mind he didn't appear to think that help was coming fast enough.Could be he was going to call some of his friends to help out.I imagine he was frantic to get help at that point.IMO

Excuse me - you are the one who said you've threatened to kill people, more than once. I didn't say I was better than you; I find it interesting that that's where your mind goes.
Well, since you asked, yes, I've been in Ron's shoes. My son was murdered, I don't know by whom.

Zero signs of abuse? How could you possibly know that? How do you know that Ron did not speak to his children the same way he spoke to Misty? How do you know that Crystal's allegations of abuse were false?
I don't have a problem when people make it plain that they are posting an opinion or a theory.
ITA that it would be nice if there were fewer posts that assert one thing or another as being the truth, before enough of the story has been revealed to know. Your post which states as fact that there were zero signs of abuse fits that category. You don't know.

You are abosolutely right-I don't know-and I apologize. I really should NOT have posted right then. I was VERY upset having just logged on and reading a "certain posters" accusations that "Haleigh stunk".

How do you know "there was zero signs of abuse"? How do you know "people" are "stating things as fact that simply aren't true"?
Very curious.
One thing we know is that DCF did an investigation and didn't find RC to be abusing his children IMO. When the DCF spokesperson was interviewed in the beginning of this case, she stated that if they found evidence there was physical abuse the child/children would have been removed. JMO but I saw the interview on one of the Gainesville sites. The sad part is that if CS and crew took some of these photos as alleged, this means they were present to see what they believed to be abuse markings and didn't try within their own jurisdiction to have someone intervene IMOO. :crying:
Again, if they were all afraid of Ron and the town has been living in fear, that's a sad story to try and sell given Johnny Sheffield has been in LE himself and served as a MARINE. No, for me there is much more to this story like the allegation of Johnny SEEING RC do drugs.....
:w00t:Hullo, that sounds ludicrous on face. What was Johnny doing WATCHING RON if that was true? There is only one answer that makes sense and I'm sure that's a contributing factor here too. JMOOC

I said it's not about me. Originally I said that Ron's threatening to kill somebody was abusive. You said it wasn't abusive, in fact you had more than once threatened to kill somebody (implying that since you did it and you aren't abusive then neither was Ron). I disagreed with this assessment and said that you thinking that yours and Rons threatening to kill people is not abusive reflects more on your beliefs than whether or not threatening to kill people is objectively abusive. I stand by what I said, threats to kill IS OBJECTIVELY ABUSIVE and I would offer the fact that its a felony in my state and probably others as proof.

Considering some of the other information (& some of it is gossip, no doubt) we have seen/read/heard about Ron, I'm leaning more towards him being a verbally abusive person at the very least. And when we take into consideration that he has a conviction for Affray, I think that further strengthens the suspicion that he is not a stranger to behaving in abusive ways.

But unless or until I wish people could remember she is a teenager that had a really horrible thing happen to her when she was 13 and has not had a good life visited upon her by most people's standards and *but for the grace of God*, many of us could innocently be the talk of the message boards one day.

Misty made a POINT of the washing of the blanket. Said when she put Haleigh to be she noticed the blanket smelled like pee. Obviously she would have had to remove the blanket earlier if she had washed the sheets so obviously it was the same sheets from the night before. I am sorry if you have boys that may wet the blanket but not the bed.Girls don't work that way.It doesn't go upward, it soaks you underneath.
The surmissal is that the sheets had to be urine tainted if the blanket was. She didn't state anything about washing the bedding. She was very specific about having taken down the blanket from the window and described another in the "van". SHe thought it was important enough to make a point of it. IMO yes IMO the sheets were soiled and she was left to sleep on them. I consider that filth. AGAIN, JMOO.:cursing:
I have 5 girls and 1 boy, plus I am a female myself so I do know how females urinate. Like I said, it makes no sense to wash ONLY the blanket if the bed was urinated in, everything would stink not just the blanket.
ETA It is also possible she put different sheets on but Haleigh only had one comforter type blanket.

You can ask any person working in any field that handles any aspect of child welfare & they should be able to tell you that it happens pretty frequently.
Wishing & hoping doesn't change a single thing about it. Sorta like I wish I had won the lottery last night. Or I hope that tomorrow I will find $50 on the sidewalk. Nothing about this case (or any other) will be true or untrue based on our personal wishes. If Haleigh should be found alive & unharmed, it won't be because any of us hoped for it to be true. Same as if she is found in any other condition or if she is never found at all. It is what it is. It will be what it will be.

I am sure that this question has been asked and answered before, so excuse me.
With Ron's previous felony arrests, was he allowed to own or have a gun?
(I realize many other players in this case also have criminal pasts, so I am not slamming just him.)
Could that be why the gun was found in the ditch and the differing stories about it and the fight from Ron and his mother?
TIA
You lose the right to own a gun if you are convicted of a felony. An arrest isn't a conviction so yes, he should still be allowed to own guns.

If they witnessed abuse on these children then they are just as bad if not worse than the abuser. There is no two ways about it.Thanks for your opinion.
We don't even know if it's about abuse and you already have the mystery person labled worse than an abuser. LOL Gotta love the internet.

Didn't crystals cousin or someone say they witnessed Ronald back slap Haleigh so hard she fell down and was bleeding? Why didn't they call 911?You'd have to ask them. I'm sure I wouldn't know if they did or didn't or why they did or didn't call 911.

See i never think it happen...I think it's a LIE.
I cant imagine that another person could witness abuse of 2 small children over a period of 3 years and never ever report it.......Blows my mind.......
My question is why wait until now? Maybe if this person is so frightened of "Teflon Ron", Crystal's attorney has had this person placed in protective custody....Ya think? LOL......I dont believe it either.

I'm sorry for the loss of your husband.
Tree didn't mention a spouse...He/she said no one had ever called him/her names...Do I think what Ron said to Misty was right or acceptable...no...but I don't think what we heard on that 911 call makes him a murderer...especially to one of his own children.
Does he have a temper? Probably so but we have absolutely no proof that he did anything to cause this little girl's disappearance and I don't think we should use a conversation when he was in shock, probably scared out of his mind to say that he is responsible as some here have done.They're married now. They were living together as lovers when Haleigh disappeared. There are many people that live their entire lives without talking to their loved ones the way he talked to Misty. And it has nothing to do with living a sheltered life. That was the point I was trying to make.
I never said definitively that Ron is responsible for Haleigh's disappearance, but I think he has the classic signs of an abuser. He's had numerous arrests for drugs (oddly, with NO convictions) he's got a hair-trigger temper, Haleigh went missing under his watch and he hasn't been cleared by LE.
Imo, he is suspect on so many levels.

Rumors from Cobra, doubt that he needs to spread rumors and RC confirmed it. In my life experiences where there is smoke there is usually fire. Wish I could be so gullable to believe this was a fairytale situation, but just don't see that in this case.IMO
Would you please post the link where Ron confirmed it? And I don't mean the link to Cobra saying Ron confirmed it but anything with a direct comment from Ron confirming it.

I can only speak for myself, but I think the person who does the hitting, slapping, punching, kicking, stabbing, shooting, threatening, generally-behaving-badly is a LOT worse than the people who witness it, whether those people ever tell anyone or not.

Hi,
Haven't posted in a while but been reading it. As far as the other girl (live in) is concerned and her not coming forward maybe she did to Crystal and is why she decided to go ahead with this. The only thing is because he did it to them does not mean he did it to her. This is not me defending him because I certainly don't agree with his lifestyle or way but just not certain he is guilty of this. The thing I would like to know is about the air conditioner guy, not that I think he is involved but I mean what time he arrived and left? Was the screen door open, did he see Haleigh, things I am sure LE has asked him. I also wondering if he had to turn the electricity off for any length of time-which meant Misty would not of been able to use the washer/dryer till later. Not that I am certain she is innocent either but it might explain the late washing of the blanket.

I believe Kim did say it was about abuse but on to the rest of your comment...what is so different about me 'labeling' this person 'worse than the abuser' than some of the ones on here labeling Ron a murderer and child molester not to mention the things that have been said about others? I stand by what I said. If someone witnessed him abusing those children and did nothing then yes they are worse than he was.
I cannot personally imagine seeing a child abused and doing nothing. Not comparing the two but I have stepped in when I have seen pets abused so certainly if someone was hurting a little child I would do what I could to make certain they were safer.

The abuse allegations were reported to LE as well as DCF.

Nice snarky answer. I thought you said on the new forum you guys have pm'd us all about that you wanted to avoid any posts from me.
I have been nice to everyone here accept for one comment to a blogger but I am getting a little tired of the socio-economic put downs of people that aren't as fortunate as some of us.
I addressed a serious question from 51viking with what I thought was a nice post and you took this opportunity, again, to make fun of of the parties to this tragedy.
Perhaps you'd like to address the intelligence and education of the others in this case now.
OMG starting a new board, what a novel idea Teresa. That makes it possible to garner all the negativity and levy the false accusations with no repercussions here. Well, I never....:rolleyes:
This happens in every case when posters want to start going outside the realm of decency with the victims, their families and other posters. I've seen it go from insinuating incest to physical abuse to sexual abuse. Don't let it get you down because for the most part people who aren't launching attacks and sites to avoid following protocol are human and can feel empathy and compassion IMO.
No kidding, there was a poster here smiting Misty and her intelligence using the word "trailer" in a denigrating manner, but couldn't spell it. That's a real blower IMO, I'll bet all the air was out of those attacks IMO. I don't find that one any better or worse than Misty by measure.
While we have a case here that tells a very sad story on both sides, I still have no doubt Haleigh and Junior loved their HOME and their FAMILY. JMO tho. :wub:

No, what LE said was "no criminal charges" resulted. That doesn't mean that they didn't find marks on Jr or Haleigh. The statute in FL pretty much is lenient as far as "discipline" unless the "discipline" kills the child.

Sometimes a person can go into a state of denial and want to believe the abuser rather than confront what he or she may have done. The cuts and bruises are explained away as accidents and the whole thing is soon forgotten. It is only in hindsight when something serious happens that people look back and realize that they have overlooked critical signs.
We don't know one way or another if Haleigh was abused, not yet but I also think it's wise to keep an open mind and realize that such a thing is possible and not rule it out.
Someone abducted this precious child and hurt her, everyone should be suspect in this case that had access to her. Ron included.

Good question.
You know what really bugs me. Here you have JR who could be the only witness to a crime that Misty does not seem to want solved. I wish they would separate the two until this gets worked out. I know in the Diane Downs case BEFORE she was arrested for the crimes against her children, she was not allowed around the them. I wish someone could do the same for JR.
If they had separated Ron and Misty for about a week, we might be closer to finding out what happened to Haleigh.

Do you recall where you read/heard that?
All I can remember is that when LE was asked about abuse, accusations of abuse, etc., that they said that things such as abuse/neglect were handled by DCF - & that DCF would not (via policy) have any comments about anything they did.
IOW, the findings of abuse would be determined NOT by LE, but by DCF - & DCF ain't talkin' at this point.
JMO
Oh yeah no doubt. Sorry but i would put the life of the abused child above my own but i guess those adults around Haleigh must not have carried much because they sure never reported being an eye witness to the abuse.
MOO
imo, the players in the case are in no way strangers to being called in to LE (aka "the laws")
OR
CPS ....
They party hardy, get mad, call "the laws" or CPS to get each other in trouble. Often times, they are best buds the very next day and will change their stories.
In my experiences w/Local CPS, Intake becomes well acquainted with "tattle tails" and often just screen out reports before submitting them for investigation. Same goes for custody battles/issues with parents and absent parents "telling on" each other.
Sad that it can and possibly DID result in the permanent loss of a child.

What the link to the news article said was that sometimes a person or child can sustain and enjury and it may not be apparent until much later when it is too late for treatment. Haleigh could have been hurt by someone in the family at any time prior to her going missing. That person when they found her after it was too late to help her could have covered it up. Looking at all possibilities is important as this could be why she is now missing.
exactly...... crystal and her mom called. never did the cousin that seen the abuse. I wonder why.
Perhaps they didn't call because they didn't want to expain what they were doing there, what was going on, and their children were present.
