Haleigh Who? The forgotten Missing Florida Tot
April 23, 2009
I have received multiple emails in the last few days from readers who are anxious to receive updates on Haleigh Ann Marie Cummings, a 5-year-old girl from Putnam County, Florida, who disappeared in February 2009. It was not my intention to allow this case to fall by the wayside; this has been the case due to the many other missing person cases I have been working on in recent weeks. Nonetheless, it is my intention today to update you on the latest happenings - as slim and far between as they may be.
Before we get into the newest details, I feel that a brief recap is in order for those of you who are not completely familiar with the case.
Haleigh Cummings was last seen in the early-morning hours of Feb. 10, allegedly sleeping in her father's mobile home.
According to John Merchant, a detective with the Putnam County Sheriff's Office, police were first notified of the case at about 3:45 a.m., when they received a call from 17-year-old Misty Croslin, the then girlfriend (now wife) of Haleigh's father, 24-year-old Ronald Cummings.
In the call, Croslin said that when she woke up, she discovered that Haleigh was missing and that the back door to the mobile home had been propped open.
"Like, there was a brick on the floor," Croslin said. "Like, when I went to sleep, the door was not like that."
When police arrived at the mobile home in the Hermit's Cove area of Satsuma, they were greeted by a frantic Ronald Cummings. When deputies were finally able to calm him down, he explained that he had last seen his daughter at about 10:00 p.m. that night before he left for work. When he returned home, at about 3:45 a.m., his girlfriend had told him that his daughter was missing.
According to Misty, she had been alone in the house with Haleigh and the child's 3-year-old brother. She said that Haleigh was next to her in the bed when she had fallen asleep; however, when she later woke up to go to the bathroom - minutes before Cummings arrived home from work - she discovered that Haleigh was missing. Her original story has since varied.
Upon receiving the report, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement responded by activating its Child Abduction Regional Team and, within an hour, over 130 officers from at least 10 county, state, and federal law enforcement agencies were searching for Haleigh.
In the days that followed, Haleigh's mother, 23-year-old Crystal Sheffield, traveled from Georgia to Florida to assist in the search effort. Since that time, she has been very vocal in terms of her opinions of Ronald and his girlfriend, and has made allegations of possible child abuse; law enforcement has looked into those claims, and found no indication that anyone had ever abused Haleigh.
In the days and weeks that have followed, several tips have poured into the police, including one from a local resident who alleged that Misty was not at home the night Haleigh disappeared. It has further been alleged that the night Haleigh was abducted was not the first time Croslin had sneaked out while Cummings was at work and his kids were sleeping. There have been further allegations regarding her activities at that time; however, that information has not officially been released.
In March, Misty announced that Ronald had proposed to her and, in the days that followed, the couple wed in a private ceremony.
On April 3, Ronald was notified by his employer, PDM Bridge, that he had been fired because he had not come to work since his daughter had gone missing. In response, Ronald's lawyer, Greg Kimball, released a public statement, which reads in part:
"From the time of Haleigh's disappearance, Ronald Cummings was told that his employer was holding his job open. He was told by his employer that he could start back to work on Monday, April 6, 2009. Ronald agreed to this date and was prepared to go into work when he was told on Friday, April 3, 2009 that the offer to return to work was being withdrawn for ‘abandoning his job.’"
In the midst of all of this, licensed bondsman and surety agent William "Cobra" Staubs was hired by an anonymous source to investigate Haleigh's disappearance. Staubs attempted to get Ronald and Misty to agree to a reenactment of the night Haleigh went missing, but that fell through when Misty allegedly refused to cooperate. Since that time, Staubs has been working various angles and, according to Bloggernews.net, has been bailing out of jail people who are connected to the case.
On April 20, the mother of Ronald's 20-month-old son from a previous relationship, Amber Brooks, 20, was arrested on charges of cocaine possession. Arrested with her was Kristina "Nay Nay" Renee Prevatt, 18, a woman who recently gave an interview to artharris.com in which she allegedly describes a lurid sex, drug, and alcohol party that Misty had supposedly gone to on the week before Haleigh went missing.
Staubs posted the girls' bonds because he believes they have information that is vital to the case. What, if anything, he has learned from them is unknown.
So where does all of this leave us today? According to the Putman, Florida County Sheriff's Office, they have investigated over 1,400 tips and reported sightings. None of them have revealed what happened to Haleigh; however, the investigation is still active and the task force has yet to be scaled back.
Authorities will not comment on whether they are focusing their investigation on Ronald and Misty or other family members, and will say only that they have yet to rule "anyone" out.
Hence, the investigation continues…
Haleigh Cummings is described as three feet tall, weighing 39 pounds, with blonde hair and brown eyes. Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to contact the Putnam County Sheriff's Office at 386-329-0808 or Crime Stoppers at 1-888-277-TIPS.

thank you for this update!all of us who have followed this case from the beginning appreciate it!I'm almost positive that the anonomous person that hired COBRA is either KIM P or someone affiliated with her!bailing out two woman who were caught with cocaine is pretty low so you can have another story when you go back on t.v...that's my opinion...I have beleived all along that either Misty knows what happened to Haleigh or Crystal Haleighs mom...both are suspicious in their own ways and both like to tell stories..god bless haleigh cummings...and the L.E trying to figure this crazy case out!By the way what is going on with Crystal and her 4,000 dollars in child support owed?court ordered might I say?Does she not have to pay if Haleigh is missing?this is highly suspicious!and has L.E checked out her step brother fiance?and one more thing if amber brooks grandma looked through her peep hole and saw this black man could she point him out in a mugshot?IF she cannot this is all hear say and just another crazy story for a sad/but crazy case.

They should just arrest Misty on child neglect and see if they can scare her into telling the truth - she is clearly lying - sound familiar - Casey Anthony!
Posted by: Kim | April 24, 2009 at 09:34 AM
I follow this case everyday with every detail I can get.I do not feel that Crystal's back child support has any impact on this, she still has to pay for Ron Jr. it makes no sense to take one and not the other if this was indeed the case. You can bet that LE has checked every ave. in regards to Crystal and Chad and as stated no one has been ruled out with the exception of the cousin and the AC repairman that was there that day. I feel the person or person's involved in taking Haleigh know the family one way or another. With all the inexusable behavior going on around these children with people involved and indirectly involved (drugs, prostitution, fights),it's a wonder to me that something did not happen sooner. It is my opinion that perhaps whoever took her had no idea this would escalate to this huge national exposure.If whomever has Haleigh just might be reading here you need to bring her home find a way to drop her off somewhere safe and leave the country if need be. Think of her family they miss and need her home, they are worried sick, but most of all Haleigh needs her family she misses them as well.

Well there it is folks. A bunch of irresponsible drunks & dug addicts responsible for the safety of young vulnerable children.
My heart breaks for Haleigh - absolutely breaks. I hope she is found and I hope when she is she is not rerturned to these people. She deserves a warm bed in a warm house with a real mommy and daddy to protect her.
Posted by: Kim | April 24, 2009 at 11:31 AM
Thanks for the update. Just think. If the players in this soap opera weren't busy acting like horses' patooties, there might never be any information.
Haleigh is gone, but not forgotten.
Posted by: helenhudson | April 24, 2009 at 02:48 PM
sounds like the stepmom should be checked out more....
Posted by: Maggie Kuchenski | April 24, 2009 at 11:38 PM
In the Cummings case have they checked the railroad cars from the train that passes by the Cumming's house every night
she may be laying in a RR car on a siding somewhere --- the police probably did not check this ( TOO TIME CONSUMING ) but the RR has the record of each car and where it was and IS
Or how about a grave which was dug for someone else's funeral -- who ever killed her may have known there was an open grave in a cememtary all they needed to do was read the obits for burials, kill her, go the cememtary at night and place her body in the grave then cover it with enough dirt to hide it -- when the casket of the person who died was put in it the grave it Covered Haleighs Body even more
Does anyone ever send tips seen here to the Police ??????????? Please FEEL free to do But I want part of the reward
Posted by: Bill | April 25, 2009 at 01:06 PM
I'm glad you have an update on Haleigh. I regularly watch Nancy Grace for updates but she has seemed to drop the story since, I guess, there is nothing new being discovered. And I agree with Kims post.
Posted by: Lisa rae | April 25, 2009 at 06:27 PM
Lets all just hope that this little girl is found alive. a lot of people steal kids because they can not have any. Lets just hope this was the motive.
Posted by: cheryl norman | April 26, 2009 at 07:32 PM
These adult characters in this sad drama are, frankly, the biggest bunch of white trash I have seen in a very long time; in fact, I cannot remember the last time I saw such a bunch. They give new and expanded meaning to the term "white trash."
Are any of those people concerned w. what happened to Hahleigh? Or are they more interested in custody fights and maligning ea. other? What if Ronald Cummings decides he wants custody of his disabled son? He couldn't keep track of his daughter. And Misty as Caregiver? My blood runs cold at that thought. Also, would CPS please step in and yank "junior" asap before he disappears.
Posted by: mountaingirl08 | April 27, 2009 at 11:00 AM
I don't understand why child protective services don't do nothiing to save children that really needs to be saved, they yank kids home that are safer than this and yet you have a nutty octomom whom is obviously unable to care for her children and has too many to care for anyway then you have these idiots drug users and partiers that don't deserve children still have their children and while there are millions of stable wonderful good qualified people out there that are not able to have children are desperate to have children can't seen to be able to adopt one becuase of these foolish idiots!!!! That is sad and CPS needs to be investigated for their sorry work!!!
Posted by: laura | April 27, 2009 at 07:41 PM
The girlfriend/stepmothers story sounds very fishy here. Have they checked out that she might have sold her for money to a sex ring. Heaven knows, that a lot of that happens in this country and over seas! I pray for haleigh, innocent child, may the angels keep you and protect you.
Posted by: roxie | April 27, 2009 at 10:13 PM
I think they need to search where the father worked, he was a truck driver they need to search every delivery he made after she went missing, it can't be that much because he quit as soon as this happened, and i agree why make them rich with press, look at casey anthony, she went from a thief, to blood money princess in biaz's eyes.
Posted by: Bettttt1 | April 28, 2009 at 11:07 AM
Roxie is onto something very probable.
The 17 yr. old girlfriend could have made plenty of money selling poor, little Haleigh into a pedophile sex ring. It's tragic.
Posted by: monica | April 28, 2009 at 05:20 PM
i don't understand how there have been no updates on the news of the possible whereabouts of this beautiful baby, as a mother i would make sure that the national news stations would be airing my story until my child was found and they better hope the police found them befor i did,because God may have mercy on them but i would not.
Posted by: j.reed2005 | April 29, 2009 at 10:41 PM
I know that this is a family that has a lot of issues but everything keeps coming back to drugs. I think that the media has forgot what this story is about, Haliegh. Mabe that if the media keeps reporting, then just mabe the one or ones that is responsible will make a mistake and get caught. I hope they find her soon, she has been gone too long.
Posted by: Jenn23 | May 02, 2009 at 12:31 AM
nobody has forgotten about little Haleigh Cummings. I think the parents took focus off of finding Haleigh, so the media might of wanted to stop focus on the parents and the drama surrounding it.
Posted by: Sue | May 06, 2009 at 01:28 PM
Has the new step mother taken a polygraph?????? Why is she refusing to cooperate with the PI?? Another casy anthony.
Posted by: Laura | May 07, 2009 at 10:53 AM
I hate to pass judgment on anyone, but when I watch and hear Misty, she comes off to me as not the sharpest tack in the box. It totally blows my mind that no lawenforcement interrogator has been able to "crack" Misty. I heard on Nancy Grace that even the FBI interrogators couldn't get anything from Misty. And that her story was never the same two times in a row.
I can't help but wonder if perhaps Misty traded beautiful little Haleigh for some drugs. Or she was taken because Misty hadn't paid up for some drugs.
I honestly don't believe Ronald had anything to do with Haleigh's disappearance. I can still hear his voice in the background when Misty called the police. He was livid. Also when he talked to the 9-1-1 dispatcher himself. Remember him saying if he found the responsible party first, he was going to kill them? I just don't think any of that was acting. He was also upset that the police were taking so long (in his mind) to arrive. The dispatcher had to keep reassuring Ronald that the police were on their way.
I can't help but wonder if Misty didn't "encourage" Ronald to get married when they did. Perhaps drop some hints about proposing to her. I just think Misty has a "reason" for marrying Ronald when she did. Such as an attempt to convince Ronald she had nothing to do with Haleigh's disappearance?
Such a beautiful, innocent child. That deserves the best life has to offer her. She looks so happy in the home movie of her at Christmas. She loved that purple hat. She doesn't act like a child that was abused by her father. As far as Misty herself went, I wouldn't be surprised if when Ronald wasn't around that Misty pretty much ignored both children.
Haleigh is also old enough that if she witnessed Misty doing something she knew her father would be angered about, she might would tell her dad. There's another angle. Although I don't really think that happened.
Any bets as to how quickly Misty will turn up pregnant? I bet it won't be long. Another way to "convince" Ronald she is the devoted, loving little wife. And possibly even some type of "protection" if Ronald did learn Misty and all her stories aren't true?
I pray for Haleigh all the time.
Posted by: Ellen | May 07, 2009 at 01:35 PM
I too pray for this little girl to be found .
Misty needs to be arrested and Ron Needs to get his Head out of his ????? and see he married the wrong girl .
All these people drink the same water and its scary to think I ever would want to live their.......
Posted by: Terri Diane | May 07, 2009 at 08:59 PM
Lets say, that Missy got upset with Haleigh and brought her outside (Haleigh was deathly afraid of the dark) with this being a punishment. propped the back door open so Haleigh could get back inside when she found her way home. but Haleigh never made it back home, someone found her crying etc. and just took her.Maybe this was not the first time that Haleigh was punished in this way.I do not like to think that she was murdered. Missy, was not old enough, or mature enough to care for these children. The back door being propped open is a big key to this case. i am just about 100 lbs and i could carry this child and not have to prop a door open to get back out. just a thought.
Posted by: julie | May 08, 2009 at 07:18 AM
Where is this child??? How come she is not on the news anymore? I want to world to know that CASEY ANTHONY IS NOT THE ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD!! She killed her child let her stay in jail! But someone needs to keep the world informed of the cumming girl so she does not become forgotten!
Posted by: Crystal In Alabama | May 09, 2009 at 01:14 PM
I think and feel the mother has taken haleigh and hidden her and to get custody of her son, that is my thought something to check into

People please,if this family wasnt poor we wouldnt be in a up roar-children have went missing out of rich peoples homes to-it is one of the pedifiles in that county-or someone who had been watching for just the right moment-bless her heart-they will find her little body one day, maybe in another county-or in a hole that someone has built. They should never allow a pedifile to go back into the world-most always affend!!! Misty isnt a smart girl-maybe she did party-but i dont believe she is a child killer.teenagers sleep so hard-an a skilled child killer-can watch for months till the right time- an ease in, an out with a child so vary easy.Its a shame-how many lived near this child-watching waiting..It is happening all over America-She has been gone to long for it to be anything, other than an abduction!!!
Posted by: Debra j GENTRY | July 02, 2009 at 03:07 AM
I totally agree with Debra - I believe this was a stranger abduction. No one in this child's family is smart enough to have pulled off this kidnapping and gotten away with it. I do hope the media will keep this case in the spotlight so that someday Haleigh will be located.
Posted by: Janet | July 09, 2009 at 12:20 PM
I also agree that the mother or mother's boyfriend has (I hope)hidden (not harmed) Hayleigh. The boyfriend Chad specifically comes to mind.
Posted by: Karen | July 10, 2009 at 01:19 AM
I think Ellen is on the right track. I beleive Misty is guilty as sin and I don't think Ronald wants to believe it. Poor man probably just married her to make her happy but think about this... maybe he's skeptical and knows with the lifestle she led, he needed to try to find a way to keep her close. She should be behind bars. I think the story changing alone is probable cause, let alone her NEGLECTING both children and going out. C'mon people! FBI and LE officials in that area must be lost. following the letter of the law, she'd @ least be in for neglect and child endangerment leading to the disappearance. I think she was personally involved and I thank God that little Ronald was still safe. She should have called 911 the very moment she realized she wasn't there and NOT waited for daddy! Especially at 3:45 am! Hoping little Haleigh is safe wherever she may be!
Posted by: Dawnlynn | July 11, 2009 at 05:38 PM
I really don't understand why we don't hear any further updates on the search for Hayleigh? I don't want to think that the reason is that it's no longer newsworthy and doesn't bring in the ratings that poor little Caylee did. I am also a nurse and she has a medical problem that needs monitoring and medical intervention if necessary. I hope that she is still alive but this needs to be kept in front of the american public to be a constant reminder until she is located.

Posted by: tonya | July 15, 2009 at 10:04 AM
It boggles my mind that noone seems to be spending any 'real' time investigating these nuts Hayleigh called parents. How can these people look at each other every day, knowing they have had some type of involvement in this. Misty with her "alleged" underage drugs, sex (with multiple people)and if I am not mistaken, she seems mentally impaired. I have not seen one interview that she can actually string a whole sentence together? Why so much coverage on Casey? We all knew she did it, and yet every one reported it every day. Same info, same jailhouse video. Hayleigh's parents should be on these shows at LEAST once a month. Please don't forget this little girl.
Posted by: jeanne | July 30, 2009 at 04:34 PM
i just wanted to say i am so very sorry about what has happend i am from alabama i wish there was more i could do the one thing i know i can is to pray for u all god bless u all
Posted by: connie | August 17, 2009 at 09:05 PM
Due to the fact that Missy can't tell the same story twice I can't fault Tim Miller for wanting a polygraph before investing both time and resources in searches for Haleigh. I am positive that Ron Cummings is completely in the clear but from his reaction on the 911 call I can't fathom his whatever attitude when it comes to all the conflicting stories that Missy comes up with since the disappearance. If I were Ron I wouldn't let up on her until she tells all she knows. He has to be aware how badly she flunked the polygraphs. I guess the real question should be is it Haleigh or Missy that is truly the most important in his life?
Posted by: Mary Niles | August 31, 2009 at 07:18 PM
It seems to me that none of the people involved family and extended family are the sharpest tacks in the box which makes law enforcement's job nearly impossible. Tonight on Nancy Grace's program Crystal,the biological mom,couldn't answer the most simple of questions regarding Haleigh's schedule etc... This poor child never stood a chance! It's a blessing that Jr. is in a protective environment. I'm just sick regarding this little one's diappearance and wish that there was something I could do.
Posted by: Mary | September 02, 2009 at 10:54 PM
I am new to this particular blog but I have blogged for 7 months. First off I want to say I pray for Haleighs safe return everyday. I feel like she is still alive. I just do not feel she has met with foul play. I may feel that way because I am so sick of hearing about our children being murdered by the very people that are supposed to protect them. Well here goes my questions.
#1 Ron said in the beginning on all the News shows etc... That he picked Haleigh up from the bus stop that day however, Parents from Haleigh's bus stop are saying that Misty picked her up from the Bus Stop that day has this been confirmed or denied?
#2 Misty said when she realized Haleigh was missing she looked everywhere including under the beds. Well the beds they showed on the news were laying flat on the floor. How can you look under a bed when it is laying flat on the floor?
#3 When I watched the Voice Analysis Video and the Hypnosis Video Misty took both of these tests the same day I am assuming as she is wearing the same clothes. She said in the Voice Analysis Video that her Brother sold his RED TRUCK shortly after Haleigh came up missing but in the Hypnosis Video taken the same day she said her Brother sold the VAN shortly after Haleigh disappeared. Has that been determined which one was the truth?
#4 Was Misty ever given a Drug Test to confirm whether or not she had been doing drugs when Haleigh disappeared.
#5 Can Misty not be arrested for Child Neglect as she was responsible for the care and protection of this Child.
#6 I do remember in the beginning Ron was on TV this was like 5 or 6 days after Haleigh went missing Ron said Please bring Haleigh home now IT IS TIME. I heard those words.
#7 How did it come about with Misty sending the Police to this Location where there was a fake rose? How would she know there was a rose there?
#8 If Ron and Misty had an argument on the phone that night while he was at work does LE not think that is important information that neither of them shared in the beginning?
I understand Ron being scared of going to jail for having Sex with a Minor but am I the only one that thinks it is very Tacky to get married to the young lady that was watching my child when she went missing 1 month after my daughter came up missing and on the day that there was a search party looking for my child? I would not be getting married I would be out in the search party looking for my child. Or at least if I did get married it would not be with cake and a ceremony etc I would just do a quickie at the courthouse. Misty was in a wedding dress Laughing etc when there was an active search at the very moment they got married. Marriage would be the last thing on my mind. I understand keep your Friends Close but your enemies closer. But I would be heading up any and all search parties for my child.
Lastly on February 9th there was a Contempt of Court order issued on Ron Cummings for Haleigh's continuous Truancy from School and the last time she was seen was February 9th late night to early hours of February 10th? That seems like a huge coincidence to me.
A Couple more thoughts. Why has DCF not stepped in and taken JR into protective custody? They have both admitted to Drug abuse and the dad Ron was actively sleeping with and living with a 16 yr old minor. I have known of kids being taken away from Parents for much less in the State of Florida.
Please Lord bring little Haleigh home.
Posted by: Heather | September 10, 2009 at 01:11 AM
The latest I've heard is that the police went to Massachsetts to check on the possible siting of Haleigh at the local Walmart. Has there been anything showing up on the surveilance tapes that show Haleigh was in the store? Also could the brother's arrest be linked to anything on those tapes even though that wasn't the reason for his arrest?
Posted by: Mary | September 19, 2009 at 05:08 AM
well now, the cat's not just "out of the bag" , but was also "out of the house"...according to her brother. so , as a beliver that misty wasn't home the night haleigh went missing , i'm buying this. my questions are now , does misty have a car? maybe she took the kids and put them in the car while they were sleeping , and left them in the car where she was partying. maybe haleigh woke up and wandered off , or was abducted from the car instead of her home. i wonder this because brother says he went there and knocked loudly on the door about 10 pm that evening and no one answered , nor did he hear anyone. maybe the kids didn't hear it was because they weren't there
, i'm pretty sure that's why misty didn't hear it!! i also think daddy ron may have known..report on nancy grace show says ron ask misty's brother to go to the house and check if misty was there because he had been trying to get her on the phone and she wasn't answering. some young women with drug attractions/additions will dump the kids off anyway and anyplace they can to get to their party night , it's all about them , it's not about the kids or being responsible. i think ron is an angry , frantic , explosive controller, with a real nasty mouth. he and misty are the perfect "bad for each other" couple and crappy parents. i am intriqued why no has come forward for the reward , someone knows where she was..
Posted by: sherry | September 22, 2009 at 04:03 AM
From the report on the Nancy Grace show tonight Misty has split from the upheaval she caused in Satsuma to parts unknown. If the brother's story is fact,which I believe it is, this is further proof of the type of people that was in that child's life. Misty should save all that fake sobbing and just tell the truth. She keeps proclaiming her LOVE for Haleigh maybe the truth would be the first step in the right direction in that regard. No one in the immediate or extended family should be able to have anything to do with those children. There is a saying that I have found very true in life, " I may misunderstand you or the high advice you give but there's no misunderstanding how you act and how you live." I shall continue my prayers for that sweet child.
Posted by: Mary | September 23, 2009 at 01:34 AM
As Thanksgiving comes closer and closer and we come together with our families to unite and give thanks let us not forget that at the Cumming's table there is an empty chair. HALEIGH IS MISSING!!!
Posted by: Mary | November 24, 2009 at 02:42 PM
Where is Haleigh? In less than 2 months Haleigh will be missing for a year! Did Misty just put all of this behind her and move to Tenn. ? Why don't we hear anything more about this investigation? Isn't she worth keeping her face and story alive? My dearest Haleigh not everyone has forgotten you; I still hope and pray. This child deserves our media attention until she is found!!!!!
Posted by: Mary | December 21, 2009 at 02:19 AM
Where are you Haleigh? Does anyone care anymore? I've made posting after posting and there has been no response;no one sharing ideas. I hate to think that you are no longer newsworthy!!! There has been media attention over the failings of sport figures but none devoted to finding what happened to a little 6 yr. old. What does that say about us as human beings? What IF that was your daughter would you just sit back and say " Oh well Haleigh I gave it my best shot. I hope wherever you are it's all good." Please America wake up and see that if we give up on the smallest of little ones WE ARE DEMINISHED AS HUMAN BEINGS!!!!
Posted by: Mary | January 11, 2010 at 07:37 PM
I was visiting Disney in Florida on the day this child went missing. Now, I check online to see what updates. Why no one has found this child. I can't understand this.It is like people have forgotten about her and it is no big deal. Why are there not stories and investigations?
Posted by: Jill | January 25, 2010 at 06:21 PM
I too was in Florida vacationing with my family last year when all this was happening. She was on the news channel constantly. I can't get this little girl out of my mind. What a beautiful child. I have faith that God is with her no matter what. So sad that some people are blessed with kids and yet don't care for them properly.
Posted by: Karol | January 25, 2010 at 10:53 PM
WHEN MISTY WAS SHOWING HER RING TO SOMEONE AND THEY WERE ASKING HER QUESTIONS ABOUT HER UP COMING MARRIAGE. SHE SAUD, ITS WHAT HAILIE WOULD HAVE WANTED ! IF SHE WAS ALIVE, MISTY WOULD HAVE SAID, ITS WHAT HAILIE WANTS !! I DONT THINK ANYONE CAUGHT THIS.

I was watching Nancy Grace's program and they were showing Misty and her jailhouse visit with her parents. She was sobbing and saying how she needs to get out. When Hailey was first missing and she was putting forth all those FAKE tears I was so angry but now her tears are REAL. The difference is that now those tears are for HER. There wasn't any mention of Hailey from her when she was speaking with her parents. Everything centered around her and what she's going through. She knows alot more about the disappearance of that sweet baby. She's right where she belongs with all the rest of the worthless people on the earth. The only thing that angers me at this point is that our tax dollars pay for her room and board. It's not only her we're paying for she went to jail on the family plan.

I was listening to Nancy Grace tonight and they were playing some of the jailhouse tapes and Tommy's wife was telling her husband that with the years Misty has to probably do that she won't be able to have babies etc.. If there's one thing for sure this is a blessing from God that this woman will not be able to procreate. Also here we go again that in jail God is found. Misty says that when she gets out God is going to keep her on the right path so that she doesn't do anything wrong.PLEASE......
