Looks as if lots of lucky folks are sleeping in today.
We're up early (5 & 4 year old stayed the night, & their alarms are working quite well).
This is a great weekend for Haleigh to be spending with her mommy & brother.

Was it just me or did anyone else understand this latest altercation between Amber and Misty took place before they started partying together that weekend? Maybe I misunderstood the rumor but it sounded like they ran into each other then they along with Greg and NayNay and the hooker, went partying....
Was Amber with them while the hooker was in the house working or was that just Misty, Greg and NayNay?
Amber was not with them when Naynay and Misty partied with Greg.

Misty, WBG & NayNay were the ones who were at the house while Lindsey (not Misty's S-I-L) was 'earning' the money for them to party on that weekend. That is according to NayNay's interview on the Art Harris site.

This is some very disturbing news.. It is only about 30 minutes East of Palatka. I never in my life knew so much danger surrounded Putnam County.

I agree, those details are very not only very disturbing, but also very revealing about the general lifestyle being lived by that group.
NayNay says in her interview that Lindsey (not Misty's SIL) called her up & asked her to come get her & that she in return for driving her (Lindsey) around to earn money (via prostitution), that Lindsey would split the money with her. I don't think that is an unreasonable scenario in the world of "I want drugs, I need money to get drugs".
But what happens with NayNay or Misty when they are left to their own devices and do not have the incredibly generous Lindsey with them - someone who will do the deeds necessary to get the money that buys the drugs - then hand over half of it?
Makes ya wonder, doesn't it? And when the group of them all wind down after days of partying, pimping & prostitution - li'l ol' Misty goes back to her pristine Pollyanna life - playing hausfrau & beloved mommy figure in the 'clean living, no drugs' household of Ron. Oh yeah, I really believe that is the most likely description for life in that house (when donkeys fly, that is).

If you look at the two others living a similar life - NayNay & Amber - & consider that they were so unbelievably & stupidly high that they forgot to rid their purses of controlled substances before they tried to visit someone in the jail (& got arrested for it) - it has to make you wonder how vigilant Misty always was about keeping whatever drugs she was using out of sight & out of reach of the kids.
I think the likelihood that Haleigh accidently ingested something & died from it is more probable than the idea that a S/O broke into the house without leaving a mark on the door, grabbed Haleigh out of her bed & just took off with her.
In the first days, Ron had moments when he looked similar to people who have had a child die unexpectedly. Not the look of pure, freaking panic that a parent would have thinking their child is missing - but the resignation & sadness of accepting the loss. He has always seemed to me to have more of a look of a funeral-goer, so to speak.

Thanks Mimi....So Amber wasn't actually partying with Misty, just NayNay and the only contact Amber and Misty had was at the place where they had their confrontation? Correct?
That is how I heard NayNay, but she may have said more during another part of the interview - or at another time. She's kind of jumpy in the way she relates the details - she throws out a sentence - then another one - as if she is flashing on a memory of different scenes, rather than retelling it in a way that says..."1st we went here & we stayed for x amount of time & did activities a, b & c. At 4:00, we left to go & do...".
She doesn't have what I would call a descriptive narrative (or one that is particularly coherent). It is hard to determine a narrow sequencing of events. Just listening to her gives you an appreciation of how d@mn near impossible & maddening it must be for LE to try to get a timeline together from Misty (or any of the rest of that bunch). I would not be surprised if her recollections of the days prior & leading up to the time Haleigh disappeared are similar to NayNays.

It is also sounded to me that the tape was spliced. I agree that LE must be pulling their hair out at this point in the investigation. It is kinda hard for me to believe they were in a house full of men that wanted to be serviced and they all waited around for one girl. I know she said they stuck real close to WBG, but I still wonder what really happened. JMO

I agree with that. Plus there also seemed to be a lot of editing in her interview. That didn't help much trying to figure out what she was saying.
One thing I heard the bounty hunter say was that either she or Amber was going into rehab....or did I hear that wrong?
I understood him to say Nay Nay was going into rehab and both Nay Nay and Amber were going to get their GED. JMO

I agree, and my theory at least for the past month has been that she found some drugs and thought it was Valentine's candy.
I haven't had too many ideas about what happened after that, but think someone(s) came over to help MC. Think RC knows but not sure if he was involved. The big question is why would he have married her instead of sending her down the river one way or the other.

It could have but it shows that the animosity wasn't from that comment.
Amber may have been bitter about the break up and her mom jumped Misti for revenge, then Misti leaves that comment about having Ron to p!ss all of them off.
So far, I don't think anyone has reported how long any of these people have known one another - as friends, as babysitters, as neighbors, schoolmates, whatever. I just can't get a handle on how long they have all known one another, how often they were friends, then foes, then friends...
Every last one of them seems to be antagonist in some really petty ways. I get the impression they all pretty much have a tit-for-tat mentality - "if you do 'this', then I'll do 'that'. Oh yeah? You think that's bad...well wait til you see what I do next! Take that! you b#tch. Let's see how you like it".
Drugs make you stupid & they definitely stunt any emotional growth & maturity you might hope to gain in life as you grow up & grow older. Look at Amber's mother - just reading some of the stuff she has been arrested for gives the impression that she is as petty, empty-headed & mercurial in her moods as a 13-year-old. And then add to all of that the possibility that at least a few of these people may very well have a marginal IQ to begin with & not a whole lot of education.

That is one of the reasons I don't think Misty had anything to do with it. One, I don't see anyone in that crowd who would cover for her or even be able to keep it from LE without cracking. And I really don't believe Ron or anyone in his family would cover for her. When would she have been able to have gotten rid of her body so that it still hasn't been found?
Plus, I refuse to believe at this point that Haleigh is gone from this world...I hope I don't have to change that belief.
I join you in that hope. I agree with the point of how Misty could have gotten rid of the body without someone knowing. Has any information ever been released that showed her having a vehicle? Until the SIL vehicle was cleared by LE, I had a nagging thought that Misty could have used it. Now I just don't know. JMO

The one thing I do believe from NayNay & WBG is that none of them have seen Misty since the binge weekend. If they haven't seen her, it makes sense that they can't relate anything she did after she went back home.
Now if something happened in that house like Haleigh accidently ingesting something - I can very well believe that Misty would be motivated to only say "I was asleep, I don't know what happened". And if the drugs got into the house in the first place via Ron, he would be very motivated to deny ever knowing about it. He might mourn the loss of his child, but that doesn't mean he wants to go to jail over it - & lose Junior, lose his freedom, etc.
Also - a situation like that melds Ron & Misty together - they each have sufficient culpability to get in legal trouble. Misty for being the one who was home & in charge of minding the children, Ron for being the one who brought drugs into the house. They each would have reason to believe that they could not solely blame the other one, that the blame is shared. So now they are tied to one another - you can't point the finger at your partner w/o admitting that you are guilty your ownself - if not by commission, then by omission.
To me, if Ron was not fearful that he, himself, could face legal troubles, he would have already nailed Misty's hide to the wall until she told everything. But he hasn't done that - he glosses over his lack of reasonable actions - he says he hasn't even asked her whether she was going to bathroom A or bathroom B when she got up. Now some men may actually be possessed of such a mild-mannered, gullible, never-suspecting nature that they would not pound on the person in charge of the kids to tell a whole lot more - but I don't think it is reasonable to believe that of Ron - not after he hollared & carried on about killing people, shooting people, wasn't afraid to go to jail, he would throw out the trash.
It's the direct contradictions between what they (R&M) have shown they typically do & say - to what they have done & said in the circumstances surrounding Haleigh's disappearance that makes me believe each of them is being deliberately evasive & deceptive.
As for LE saying they are assured of Ron's work schedule, etc - that's fine, well & good. I think there is a definite possibility that LE is allowing people to think one thing, letting them go down their own little garden path. LE is under no obligation to tell us - or tell them - what their working theories are. They are allowed to mislead - them & us (the public).
For a good example of the misleading stuff - refer to all the things that LE publicly said while the DC snipers were at large. It came out afterwards that the statements made to the public were very carefully crafted in the hopes that they would elicit a specific type of response from the perps. I think LE has some very concrete strategies in mind by choosing to say the very few things they have said - & so very little about the whole case in general.

I am beginning to think that these girls would do anything for drugs and this Lindsay girl might just be too old for child porn. I also think the weekend binge and Misty going back to Ronald might have sparked some sort of retaliation. I wish Cobra would have just let Nay Nay sit in jail a while until she talked. I read somewhere Camp Cummings wasn't too happy he bailed them out, i wonder if that could be why. JMO

very good thoughts...and I believe Misty and *the girls* are just alike..they enjoy the partying life and not ready to give it up as of yet. and its a thought to ponder about Misty..drugs and Haleigh. and iF that were the case so to speak..why did Ron *go along* or did he *know* what happened..Were the drugs his and thats the reason..or does he know what (could have) happened..IF..Misty woke up to a dead Haleigh what would have been her next move? She had to panic..call Ron? Hide the little body herself? I don't believe she had help outside of Ron cause whoever helped her would have already turned over on her..IMO..I also think about one of the few pressers LE gave..says their search had lead them to alot of evidence but would never go to say what..also LE said they believed Haleigh to still be alive..TES came and left after searching woods and St. Johns River w/divers..Oh Lordy...

This morning, listening the the interview by Jason Davis of Lt Greenwood I was struck by the Lt. actually addressing the lack of truthfulness of people they have been interviewing. (This is Lt. Greenwood's last statement in the interview):
"There's a lot of inconsistencies we've been having to deal with and we're just trying to get the truth out of everybody so we can, you know, get to the bottom of it."
At the beginning of report, Jason Davis (reporter for Action News) says:
"Detectives are not slowing down in any way"...there is a "small army of detectives on the case." "...[Investigators]interviewed people close to the family but Lt. Greenwood admits not everyone is making their job easy."
Lt. Greenwood: "All its gonna take is a little piece of evidence, ya know, to corroborate some of the statements we have and some of the information we have to solve this thing."

What a happy day that would be if this turns out to be true!!! Hopefully whomever took her will return her. I wanted to say unharmed, but guess that would be way too much to hope for.

I'd sure like to locate those 7 DVD's that LE released. A weeks worth of calls. I wonder where they can be found.
I agree, it would be too coincidental for the night of all night's a SO managed to carry this off. I don't believe for one NY minute a predator was watching the comings and goings of that trailor. For openers, the happenings were too erratic, especially the week prior to Haleigh disappearing. Misty had left Ron, Ron most likely was leaving the kids with TN or the GGM and keeping an unusual schedule. Not one, at least that could be predictable.

I haven't followed that many cases but having any child, especially a little girl like Haleigh, being held by any SO seems to be one of the least positive scenerios. The physical and mental torture is not anything I could imagine.
Of course we want her home; however, I don't see the odds with that scenerio even measurable, especially that the SO has a change of heart.
playnice
04-25-2009, 11:06 PM
In most cases that I can remember the SO didn't have a change of heart, they got caught. Michael Devlin didn't let Ben and Shawn go.
Shasta Groane was held and kept alive. Doesnt happen very often but just maybe this time it will.
These cases very seldom end will and most of the time I hope and pray for the best but know its a long shot. But with Haleigh and all the people that surrounded her life I think just about anything is possible whether family, acquaintaince, SO, revenge on family or a scam for money after watching the A's rake in the dough . this time I do have hope that Haleigh may be one of the very few that remain alive.

I'm sure people have learned more about scams specially after watching the ants. But no I don't believe thats the case here either. Nor do I think either side of Haleighs family was involved.
I don't think it was a money making scam. If so, the players would still be in the limelight. Since neither side is doing media interviews, people say they are not trying to find Haleigh, yet if they did people would say it was all about the money.
I know some of the stuff we heard last week was not true, re the story about RC and JR trying to lure Amber's child outside. I wonder how much of the Amber & Nay Nay story is true and how much has been emblished by AH, TJH, and Cobra. I know there is a video of an interview with Nay Nay, but it has been edited. I would love to see the total interview and see if she said anything to make the story less salacious.
Also in light of the Amber, Nay Nay and Misty story, I am beginning to think this could be a revenge/payback abduction. I not saying they could be involved, but the life that both the maternal & paternal side of the family lived, I'm sure they are more of the same kind of happenings. JMO

If someone wanted revenge on Ron a bullet would be quicker and less risky so I don't see revenge/payback either.
My first theory was that Haleigh did leave the house that night and ended up in the river. I still think that at times but I'm leaning more toward an SO abduction.
I see your point bookie..I had felt it could be a revenge against Ron..but your right..they would have went after Ron instead of a little girl.jmo

If someone wanted revenge on Ron a bullet would be quicker and less risky so I don't see revenge/payback either.
My first theory was that Haleigh did leave the house that night and ended up in the river. I still think that at times but I'm leaning more toward an SO abduction.
I wasn't necessarily thinking it was against RC. I don't see how a bullet would be less risky. JMO

Crystal admitted calling DCF on Ron so I don't see anything unusual about them taking photos to document her injury and healing. It was a CYA move brought on by the knowledge that a bitter ex might try to use it against them and in this case that's exactly what happened. Too bad for Crystal that they have evidence of where the injury came from and the school documented the fall. The fact that the school and hospital didn't see and report abuse won't help Crystal's claim.
Also, bookie, it is good that this happened at school where others can verify what happened.
What if it has been a fall from her bike at home with no one to witnessit...................Ron would be in deep trouble just because his child had an accident.
So sad.
O/T.........a little.........When my grandson jumped off the steps and landed on his elbow, he fractured his arm. I called 911. As each responder arrived, they asked HIM what had happened. When he arrived at the hospital, each person who came into contact with him, including the doctor, asked HIM what had happened. I think that all those who should be looking for "child abuse" are. This is MOO with this accident to my perecios baby. Funny.......when asked by his mother who he wanted to ride with him in the ambulance, mommy or daddy...............he said grammie. :laugh: Daddy did.

If there is no evidence left behind the cops have no clues. Not all guns eject the cartridge. And if the gun has never been used in a crime then there is nothing in the police database to lead police to the shooter.
That is supposedly what happened to dog, the bounty hunter when he said he was shot at last week. I don't know about these bounty hunters. They seem to crave attention. JMO

My middle daughter got whiplash when an idiot she was riding a 4 wheeler with jumped a small hill. Our hospital experience was the same...the triage nurse and dr asked her what happened.
Asking small children is best. They don't take the time to form a lie. They are the ultimate straight shooters and say exactly what happened.
I don't know what Crystal, Marie and Kim thought they were going to prove by using a known school injury as proof of abuse. Are they all stupid and thought Ron would sit back and say nothing? Didn't they think the school documented the fall? I think Kim should have sent Cobra to the school before she ran to the media with the abuse claim.
We have seen no evidence of child abuse to my knowledge. I see Haleigh as a happy child. At her age, I think that she thinks her life is fine...............she has not seen much to compare it with. moo
When these questions were being asked to my gs, because of my reading on these boards, I was not offended at all.............just happy to see first responders/doctors/nurses take their jobs seriously.
Kim has made some very cruel remarks on national tv that should never have been said.
Until they remove Ron, Jr., I will think that there is no evidence to cause this to happen.

I agree Peaches...as a matter of fact..if nurse or Dr. did NOT ask a child *what happened* I would be very upset..I believe all medical personel should ask questions and If a child responds that someone hurt him/her then I should hope the Dr. would turn it over to CDS..wasn't that many years ago this procedure wan not done or neighbors would not step up and make the report of an abused child and many many children have died/killed as a result of that failure.

Even if "friends of the babysitter/wife" testify, unless they have witnessed Misty doing drugs in front of these children, it will not be admissible in a court of law. IMO
I am seriously looking at Amber and her mother as someone who may have abducted this Innocent child to get even with Ron for leaving Amber. They hold so much hate for Misty,a little crack and a let's get even attitude IMO, = taking his daughter. These are two people who are known to be violent, heavy drug user's and have a record of using violence if someone pi**es them off. I don't even think Nay Nay is violent, just stupid on drugs.
If these two are involved it is not Misty or Ron's fault that they took his daughter. The responsibility is on their(the abductors) back.Drugs has been involved in majority of crimes, they turn people into monsters.
If I recall reading the last custody hearing the judge did ask when was the last time Crystal did cocaine and also asked Ronald the same thing, it was admissable then, why not now. If Ronald married Misty to avoid statutory rape charges this will come back to bite him in the rear, her character will be considered if she will be a caretaker. I do agree about these girls being involved especially the lindsey girl. If she will prostitute herself that way what else will she do. JMO

It is very sad that no matter how many of us try to protect or children, something can happen in a matter of seconds to hurt them.
I am with you, I do not hesitate to call if I see a little one being abused or think that I see one being abused.
Reminds me of that lady seeing a child in a convenience store and thinking the child was acting strange..........she called and she called. Finally, this child was found and she indeed had been as Ron says "stolen"..............so, this just go to show us if we suspect, we call. And with luck, the authorities will take care of the problem if there is one.
You would be surprised to what young children share with their teachers, especially the young ones.
On meet your teacher night ------- my daughter tells her parents (she teaches K) if you do not believe what your child tells you happened EXACTLY as she/he tells it at home what happened in school any given day----------- I will NOT believe that story they share with me happened exactly at home the way they tell it. (I hope you get the jest...I am not sure my words are exact.) And then she adds, if you have questions, please call.......email.....or just drop by.
Kids do say the darnests things. I said all of this to say that children who are being abused do share with those they trust such as their teacher.
Also, this is the reason I know that children can be and are removed immediately if LE thinks they are in danger. Therefore, if LE though Ron, Jr. was in danger, he would be long gone.

Do you think Chads record of DV will play a role in the child being placed with Crystal? I don't think the Lindsy girl played a role, of course I don't know if she history of violence or not. I understand she lives over near ST. Augustine, does Ron even know her. Being a prostitute does not mean she has a desire to murder a child. What reason would she have she was not with this group that was partying with Amber that week end. My understanding is Amber jumped on Misty at a party they both were at. Accidentally run in to each other. Just rumor.
I think Chad's record will come in if they are living together or are married which if Crystal listen's to her attorney I am sure neither of these will be the case.

She is still the mother of these young children. I just believe she is wrong to allow KP to use her for her on gain of publicity.

While your looking can you find a link showing how long the judge told Ron TN had to care for the kids? Was it a year? Until they were teens? Until they graduated high school?
Then we must have read two different docs. I read when the judge asked Ron who would be caring for the children while he worked he answered his mother would or his GGM I can't remember which. the judge never told him how long she had to care for them but I am sure he wouldn't have approved of him living with a 16 year old, who does drugs.as recently as the weekend before Haleigh goes missing, wonder what he will think of that?

This morning, listening the the interview by Jason Davis of Lt Greenwood I was struck by the Lt. actually addressing the lack of truthfulness of people they have been interviewing. (This is Lt. Greenwood's last statement in the interview):
"There's a lot of inconsistencies we've been having to deal with and we're just trying to get the truth out of everybody so we can, you know, get to the bottom of it."
At the beginning of report, Jason Davis (reporter for Action News) says:
"Detectives are not slowing down in any way"...there is a "small army of detectives on the case." "...[Investigators]interviewed people close to the family but Lt. Greenwood admits not everyone is making their job easy."
Lt. Greenwood: "All its gonna take is a little piece of evidence, ya know, to corroborate some of the statements we have and some of the information we have to solve this thing."
(This is from listening and I tried my best to write it out as I heard it. Any mistakes are mine).
------
Lt. Greenwood seems to be at his breaking point for putting up with lie after lie. His frustration appears to match the frustration of the detectives who were interviewing Casey Anthony at Universal Studios. Fed up to the eyeballs with liars. I feel for them and know that I could not do their job. I would not last very long with someone lying through their teeth. I would be fired for grabbing them by the throat until they coughed up the truth. Salute to the detectives for what they do for the rest of us.

gosh cat..I have never had an opinion one way or the other about psychics..my GGM and GM believed..and I know several times my GM would be right about something and I would get the chillys up the back of my neck..she always scared me as she would just up and say that she had a dream about some relative and that their would be a death and sure enough..2-3 days later..I suppose that anthing is possible. Does she usually release her feelings/findings to the public or does she tell only LE?

I still would like to know if Crystal has followed up on her health. No one seems to know. I wish NO harm of ill health on her, she is to young to be facing a major illness. She is still the mother of these young children. I just believe she is wrong to allow KP to use her for her on gain of publicity. I don't think Sheriff Hardy was exaggerating when he said bring in attorney has hurt getting information on what really happened to Haleigh.

Bam Bam,
I missed Sheriff Hardy saying that. I am not doubting you, just don't remember it. Do you know when this was? Was he addressing the fact that both parents have retained attorneys? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Lt. Greenwood seems to be at his breaking point for putting up with lie after lie. His frustration appears to match the frustration of the detectives who were interviewing Casey Anthony at Universal Studios. Fed up to the eyeballs with liars. I feel for them and know that I could not do their job. I would not last very long with someone lying through their teeth. I would be fired for grabbing them by the throat until they coughed up the truth. Salute to the detectives for what they do for the rest of us.
Bolding is mine

The judge asked who helped/would help with the kids. That doesn't mean he gave Ron custody because he thought TN would be the only one watching her. He also asked if the kids would be put in daycare. Do you think daycare played a part in the judges decision.Question..? not directed at you bookie.the daycare remark got my attention..Was Jr. in fulltime daycare or did he stay with Misty during the day while Haleigh was in school? Anyone?

Texas48
04-26-2009, 06:55 PM
Since she wasn't in the picture I doubt she was a part of it. The fact is that the judge didn't order Ron to have his mother or grandmother to be the only people who watched Haleigh and Junior no matter how hard some try to spin the custody order.Darn it..I just asked the question if Ron/Misty were together at that time...Should have read alittle further..sorry..The way I read it I didnt take it as it was a *condition* of the custody. but that was just MO.

What evidence??? Everything about this case has been hearsay. The police haven't named her a suspect or POI. They have talked about inconsistencies but after hearing her talk I have no doubt they are minor points. The girl comes across as if she is dumber than a box of rocks. She didn'tknow what numerical meant on the 911 call, when asked hair color she replied white and clearly didn't understand what inconsistency meant when asked about it in her last interview.I dont mean this in an ugly way but it was clear (and we could see her looks/expression/question mark in her eyes) when asked about *inconsistencies* that she did not know what the word meant..on the 911 call I felt the same about the word *numerical* but after thinking about it maybe she didnt understand the dispatcher or didnt hear her correctly..I was tying to find an excuse for Misty but in all honesty I knew she didnt know the meaning. I bet most all here have grandkids that know the meaning of those words and in no way am I trying to put her down..this is just how it is with some ppl. JMO

ROFL. Someone saying something isn't evidence. Especially a couple of girls arrested for cocaine possession and bailed out by Kim Picazio's buddy. That reeks of bought testimony. Ron's attorneys will have a field day with that.I believe it was mention that the *girls* would loose credibility because of the interview after they were released from jail..and..your right bookie..the courts will frown on their testimony now. Whatever they did know..if they know anything at all they should have provided LE with the information.JMO

Let me just throw this out there, No doubt in my mind that KP is a woman's advocate and they have no doubt seen this type of case before. They know how the law works and they know how to use it in their favor. Many of these attorneys have ties to underground networks and also will advise to hide children, off the record. I am not saying this is the case, but would not be surprised if it were. JMOthere are many cases where this happends with one parent(not always the mother) and child that go underground..and most likely for good reasons..but if this were the case with Crystal..wht did she not take *both* children?

Those are the only two you know about. I know you don't want to admit that RC may have lied. People do it all the time in court.I have a feeling that whoever Ron was with at that time would have already surfaced..Everyone's life is pretty much been turned inside out in this case..JMO

Last week and this afternoon I was checking in at Ron Cumming's attorney's website, which is dedicated to the disappearance of Haleigh and their representation of her father, Ron.
The site has been rehabbed, but some mistakes are still there, including words overlapping words, making it difficult to read. It's good to see that they finally corrected her description on the home page, but not on the page with Haleigh's photos.
What is troubling is that, the way it is now set up, if you were to just click on the box entitled "Haleigh's Pictures" you are taken to photographs and her description and when she went missing:
(my underlining and bolding)
"Haleigh was last seen between the hours of 8pm and 10pm at her Satsuma home, located in the Hermitt's Cove section of Putnam County. She is described as a white female, approximately 39 pounds and 3 foot 9 inches tall. She is five years old, has blond hair and blue eyes."
The "album cover" for photos is the picture of Haleigh, eyes closed, holding an infant. On the home page her description is correct, yet they say she was last seen "in the evening hours." Just kind of troubling that everything does not match up, especially because the conflicting information makes it difficult to identify her and it is unclear when she was last seen. "Evening hours" is open to interpretation, depending upon each person's idea of "evening."
On the Home Page, on the left is the following announcement:
"Coming Soon!
See Haleigh's Dad Speak Out Via Video!"
There's also a streaming banner running across the top saying basically the same thing.
Just some observations and some things to wonder about.
These are my thoughts and opinions only.

It will be good to hear what they have found. It needs to be about the children, and the safety and protection of the children. I am hoping that those looking into all of this are professional and well-trained.

I wonder if DCF will call any LE to testify? Also wonder who all KP will call as witnesses. I'm just glad I don't have to be involved in hearing this case and making a judgement. At this point, not knowing anymore than what has been put out in the media, I think I might give them shared custody for 2 weeks at the time, with no child support by either. The only problem they would have to live in the same school jurisdiction. I might also put in a stipulation that this judgement would be reviewed periodically to see how it was working. Course they have so much to deal with, doubt they would want to do anything that would involve them coming back into court. JMO

Well, let me just throw this out there....KP is slinging everything out she has "heard" hoping something will stick.
:thumbdown: KP needs to go back under her rock, but that's the only 'underground' related to her I see...
I am wondering what angers you about Kim Pacazio. Being an attorney who represents those who have been, or are in domestic violence situations, she more than likely knows about this "underground." It is also something that she would not suggest in an outright way, if at all, I would think.
As far as just throwing things out there and hoping they will stick, I see nothing in her words, actions, and demeanor that suggest that she is in any way dishonest. She is used to doing "battle" in one of the worst situations families face, so I can see how she would rub many people the wrong way.
These are my opinions, based upon my particular points of view.

You do have a way with words. I always look forward to reading what you have to say.
IMO, its not Kim per se that seems to disturb some, but who she is representing. For some reason, it appears there a few who have a strong dislike of Crystal, and have transformed that dislike onto her atty. I haven't seen Kim say or do anything yet that a seasoned atty. wouldn't do for their client.

Some information of interest from the report link above.
Sheffield and her father, Johnny Sheffield, said in court papers that Cummings was an abuser who used and sold illegal drugs and threatened to kill people who offended him. Her father also said Cummings left the children with family members who used drugs.
( my comment to bold section. Everything he said has been proven to be true.)
In a court action, Cummings was given custody of the couple's two children in 2005 because he had a job and could better support the children, a magistrate ruled. Visitation with their mother was not restricted.
(my comment. Crystal said RC was awarded custody because he had a job and she was not employed at the time)
In November, Haleigh was injured in a fall at school that was documented with pictures. But Picazio said later photos the same month show other injuries not connected to the fall.
Kimball said the accusations are false and in a release said the assertion amounts to "slander and libel."
Picazio calls the injuries "two incidents close together."
(my comment - she is stating she has information of abuse that followed the school incident and cause further injury aside from the school play ground injury)
TN took pictures of the injury. Why? Could it be because she knows there was an abuse incident shortly afterward that RC caused.

And what if the truth is that there was never any abuse?
I am always curious to know how it could be proven that there was "never any abuse." I would think that a thorough investigation would include testimony and careful examination of all surrounding people and circumstances. It takes dedication and the relentless pursuit of the truth, in my opinion.
If the truth were that there has been no abuse, this would not be happening. This is based upon my personal belief that the children and some of the women around Ronald Cummings have been abused. (my opinion).
I would think that, if there is a finding of "no abuse," yet Crystal and Kim Pacazio continue to believe that there has been abuse, they will continue to fight for the children's safety.
I would never underestimate the power of the truth and the love of a parent for their children.
My very strong opinions and beliefs.

Another thing Ronald said that bothers me is in one interview
Cummings said "I’d give my life for my child’s life back.”

Otherwise he would have said he would give his life for his child back.

Crystal in no way whatsoever can be compared to Casey Anthony. Casey's attorney is fighting for Casey's life. It is his job to say those things. Crystal is not on trial for murder and the DP like Casey is.

TN took pictures of the injury. Why? Could it be because she knows there was an abuse incident shortly afterward that RC caused.
Hannah
I have previously stated and thought that after the playground injury, there was an episode that caused further injury to Haleigh. I can understand how that particular injury did not get reported as required by law, because it was explained by whoever took Haleigh to the ER that day, that it was caused by the playground mishap. Its all in the timing, IMO, worked out well for Ron.

What does that mean? Is it guilt for something he did and regrets. Does he know she is never coming back. That is how that statement is stated.
Otherwise he would have said he would give his life for his child back.

a) Had no proof of except hearsay.. and then
b) Excuses Crystal's sharing investigation finds on Geraldo using her (just turned) 4 year old son as 'closeness'.
c) Then goes on to offer her "10th grade education excuse" for poor Crystal being uneducated.....so she couldn't help herself.
Bull Ship.
She had to know airing dirty laundry was likely going to hinder the search for Haleigh
She could do a lot of good for Crystal if she wanted to, and hopefully she will if custody goes to Ms Sheffield or not.
She's looking out for numro uno. IMO
Off soap-box
KP wants to help Crystal and she needs that help. If she had an attorney during the custody hearing the children would still be with her but she could not afford an attorney.
It is obvious that she is lacking in education. Most of the family on both sides are. You can tell that by the words they use when speaking in their interviews.

It didn't happen on her watch. And there have not been any abuse allegations against her by anyone. If she were guilty of any abuse of her children that would have been stated even though Haleigh did not disappear on her watch. There have been none stated, not even by RC's camp.

The way I see it, Mrs. Pacazio coming forward for Crystal during the search for Haleigh is, in actuality, a case of life being more than one dimensional.
Haleigh is missing and Crystal is afraid for her son, who still is has contact with Ron. What mother would not, and could not, fight for the safety of both of her children, along different tracks, at the same time. (For those who insist on bringing up Crystal's past sins, RIGHT NOW Crystal is doing what she can, and NOW she has some high-powered, compassionate help).
I have never understood the idea that, in wanting to protect her son that is here, this any way takes away from her desire to find out where her daughter is, and what happened to her. In fact, she has created the Haleighbug center, and that is a big SOMETHING, in my humble opinion. Shes only one, young, traumatized woman. What standard must she live up to?

The part I bolded is not true.
Undoubtedly, the increasing number of reports has saved thousands of children from harm. However, there have been some rather disturbing side-effects. In 1975, 35 percent of all child abuse reports were unsubstantiated--a percentage that, although high, was perhapsunderstandable given the Mondale Act's emphasis on bringing even suspicions of abuse into the open. But by 1993, the percentage of unsubstantiated reports had reached 66%. And in divorce cases, many experts estimate that between 75 and 80 percent of allegations of child abuse are completely false.

Last week and this afternoon I was checking in at Ron Cumming's attorney's website, which is dedicated to the disappearance of Haleigh and their representation of her father, Ron.
The site has been rehabbed, but some mistakes are still there, including words overlapping words, making it difficult to read. It's good to see that they finally corrected her description on the home page, but not on the page with Haleigh's photos.
What is troubling is that, the way it is now set up, if you were to just click on the box entitled "Haleigh's Pictures" you are taken to photographs and her description and when she went missing:
(my underlining and bolding)
"Haleigh was last seen between the hours of 8pm and 10pm at her Satsuma home, located in the Hermitt's Cove section of Putnam County. She is described as a white female, approximately 39 pounds and 3 foot 9 inches tall. She is five years old, has blond hair and blue eyes."
The "album cover" for photos is the picture of Haleigh, eyes closed, holding an infant. On the home page her description is correct, yet they say she was last seen "in the evening hours." Just kind of troubling that everything does not match up, especially because the conflicting information makes it difficult to identify her and it is unclear when she was last seen. "Evening hours" is open to interpretation, depending upon each person's idea of "evening."
On the Home Page, on the left is the following announcement:
"Coming Soon!
See Haleigh's Dad Speak Out Via Video!"
There's also a streaming banner running across the top saying basically the same thing.
Just some observations and some things to wonder about.
These are my thoughts and opinions only.
http://www.findhaleighnow.com/

Some information of interest from the report link above.
Sheffield and her father, Johnny Sheffield, said in court papers that Cummings was an abuser who used and sold illegal drugs and threatened to kill people who offended him. Her father also said Cummings left the children with family members who used drugs.
( my comment to bold section. Everything he said has been proven to be true.)
In a court action, Cummings was given custody of the couple's two children in 2005 because he had a job and could better support the children, a magistrate ruled. Visitation with their mother was not restricted.
(my comment. Crystal said RC was awarded custody because he had a job and she was not employed at the time)
In November, Haleigh was injured in a fall at school that was documented with pictures. But Picazio said later photos the same month show other injuries not connected to the fall.
Kimball said the accusations are false and in a release said the assertion amounts to "slander and libel."
Picazio calls the injuries "two incidents close together."
(my comment - she is stating she has information of abuse that followed the school incident and cause further injury aside from the school play ground injury)
TN took pictures of the injury. Why? Could it be because she knows there was an abuse incident shortly afterward that RC caused.
So, Johnny Sheffied, father of Crystal, stated in his affidavit of January 2006: "... that Cummings left the children with family members who used drugs."
My question: Which family members? And, why did Johnny Sheffield not name them for the record for the Magistrate's benefit?
Family members would include but not be limited to:
Ronald's father, Lester Jack Cummings; his mother, Teresa Neves; sister, Crystal Cummings, his own grandmother, Annette Sykes.

GRACE: Was there any problem? Were there any tensions in the home that you knew of?
SHEFFIELD: No.
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0902/12/ng.01.html
Personally I think it was a dumb question for NG to ask of Crystal. How would she have any knowledge of any tension in Ron's house?
Perhaps NG should have asked LE that question. Didn't they say they were familar with that residence and had responded to calls there? I seem to recall reading that somewhere.

How long will GGM put up with Ron and his new bride living off her is the question. Ron, at the moment has no income.

I've been through it more times than I can count, and bottom line is when there are grandchildren, you just do it.

$64 question! JMO, but the house where the wedding took place did not look all that big to me. She's 64, as I recall, assumed to be retired. Must be a major lifestyle change when you live alone and then all of a sudden you have your grandson, his new wife, and a 4 year old boy living with you 24/7.

Assuming that Annette Sykes is still enamored of her new grand daughter-in-law, backs up both Misty and Ronald 100% she may be willing to do so for quite a few months.
Junior may be eligible for a Head Start Program or something of that nature. Also a real possibility his day care would be subsized by county, state, or federal funded program(s).
As I posted several days ago, Ronald and Misty should both be out looking for jobs.
Florida's minimum for 2009 is $7.21/hour for 'non-tip' jobs.
They can both go to school in the evenings -- to get their GED; learn a skill or trade so they can both become productive citizens. [JMO * Themis]

What does that really have to do with Haleigh?
and is that really our business?
FallenAngel: It has as much to do with Haleigh as you asking just now (post 329):
"wasn't Crystals sister in a fight with someone?"

I was responding to a poster who said CPS's would be reluctant to remove a child from a home he had grown accoustomed to. My reply was to that statement. We don't know how Gma Sykes feels about her new guests and how long she would welcome it.

Same for Crystal. There is NO excuse for a mother to tell a Judge she was just too LAZY to get out of bed and take her sick child to the dr. MOO
Would she be a better person had she lied to a judge in a court of law? To me, and I think to others, this is an example of her inherent honesty. She spoke the truth to the judge even though it would make her look bad.
I would imagine he was quite moved by that, if a bit taken aback. She is unusually honest. For that she has gained many people's respect, including mine.

Themis,do you think Crystal should also be out looking for a job? IMO

I wonder how far Crystal was willing to take the false report about the stolen car.If she hadn't admitted the truth it could have gone as far as court.So much for the theory that she isn't willing to lie in a court of law.IMO

I doubt Crystal's problems with seizures at the moment would enhance her changes of finding employment, do you?

seeker, this man's arrest records proves to me he NEVER saw abuse to his daughter or his grandchildren. This is a man that would not even hesitate to beat the he** out of Ron if he thought for one minute he abused these children or his daughter.
I am sure Ron also knew this and knew NOT to abuse his daughter or their children. MOO
Evening, Bam Bam,
As far as I know none of us know what has transpired between Crystal's Dad and Ronald Cummings, then or now. Everything doesn't make it into the news and everything is not always reported to the police; sometimes incident reports are not written up even when the police are called and come on scene. We do know he signed an affidavit for the court, on behalf of Crystal and his grandchildren.
Beyond that documentated fact, I just think that we don't know.

And her health (seizures) will also be taken into consideration in a custody change Is the stress going to be to much for her to handle two small children? The judge is going to want to see proof that she can. MOO
I'm sure this time around Ron will have to produce more than just his word. This time I look forward to a level playing field.

Hi,seeker, If there was any fighting between these two I do believe Ron would have had to make a trip to the ER. I think a man who has as many assault charges against him would put a hurtin' on Ron. No doubt in my mind. This man was involved in dog fighting, gambling. Really a dangerous man if anyone crossed him. Nope, no one will ever convince me that he would stand back and allow anyone abuse his daughter and grandchildren.
I can not see that happening.
Hope your week end was a nice one.:wink:
Um, if I'm not mistaken wasn't there a dog fighting charge on Ron's record?
moo

JMO
IIRC,Ron had more than just his words.He had a job and was able to produce test results that showed he was clean as far as drugs.
How level will this playing field be? I think with all the rumours started by Picazio and continued by AH,Cobra,and others will surely sway child protective services.Can you imagine if they decided that Ron Jr should stay with RC.Most of the public would have a fit.I think Picazio counted on this and that is why she went public with her allegations of abuse.IMO

Sorry, I just deleted the link as Ron's court record was posted on WS and i realized it might not be something I should post here.
If you tyoe in Ron's name with a %, this should give you his Putnam County record.

i wish the state would take about ALL these children from these horrible people :(
it is really amazing that every name mentioned in this case has some sort of criminal record in their past, cept Misty and that's probably only because she's still a minor. :sad:

what does this mean?
VIOLATION OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE INJUCTION
I think it mean that there was a protection order or something in place like person x can't go within 500 feet of person y, I think this means person x did whatever it was the order said not to do.
