Good Job

I need a few scorecards Art!
Is everyone aware that there is a new website requesting donations for the Haleigh case? Check the site out. It is none other than the PRO-BONO attorneys for Ronald Cummings. Yes, pro-bono, meaning free, attorneys!
http://www.findhaleighnow.com/
This is not the same as the one set up by Delaney, the 11 year old. Notice, similar in name,completely different sites. Then there is also the haleighbug.
http://www.findhaleighnow.com/
The ones that are actually doing the work on this case are getting nothing, spending their own time and money to look for a child they have never met. That is more than I can say for some. Everyday, they are out there tracking down leads, getting threatened, or hitting a brick wall because ppl don’t want to cooperate or it might infringe upon their operations, etc. This includes Art, Cobra, and KP. Whether you like them or not, they are helping and investigating and bring the story to us.
We are talking about the life of a child. This should come first and foremost.
Everyone else has their hand out. The money supposedly is for the search for Haleigh and towards the reward. All I have heard is spending, spending, spending. Not on searching but vehicles, eating out, going to the fair, buying beer, going gambling.
I am a mad citizen of Florida! I, as a taxpayer, am paying for law enforcement to find Haleigh. I don’t have a problem with that part…I have a problem with the drugs and people not telling the truth. People sending LE on false runs and giving false information. When the person(s) are charged with a crime, who do you think is going to pay for the legal fees?
Cobra and Art. Everyone seems to be thanking you for the great job you are doing except the family involved. I can probably guess who the ones are that are blocking your efforts.
May 4th, 2009 at 2:16 pm
THIS IS THE INTERVIEW THAT I AGREED WITH ALL OF THE PANELIST. I THOUGHT THE WATER BOARDING COMMENT BY THE GUARDIAN ANGEL EVEN SOUNDED GOOD AT THIS POINT. ANYTHING TO GET THE ANSWERS NEEDED TO FIND THIS LITTLE ANGEL.
YOU KNOW WHAT THE FLOW CHART REVEALED TO ME. THAT EVERYONE SEEMS TO BE CONNECTED TO RONALD. EVERYTHING BROUGHT UP IN THE CIRCLE AROUND HIM IS DRUGS,WHETHER IT BE PERSCRIPTION DRUGS OR ILLEGAL DRUGS.
I WONDEER NOW THAT RONALD AND MISTY HAVE LAWYERS, HOW DO YOU SQUEEZE THEM?
CRYSTAL MAY GOD GIVE YOU STRENGTH ON THIS MOTHERS DAY AND I AM PRAYING THAT HALIEGH WILL BE FOUND SO SHE CAN SHARE IT WITH YOU. DON’T GIVE UP; JUST KEEP HOPE. THERE ARE MANY OF US WHO ARE PRAYING FOR YOU AND HALIEGHS RETURN.
ART KEEP CRACKIN THE WHIP AND THANKS TO ALL HELPING ART TO FIND JUSTICE FOR HALIEGH. GODS SPEED
May 4th, 2009 at 5:31 pm
ART:SUNDAY I SPOKE TO COBRA AT THE RADIO STATION AND HE HAS SUCH A PASSION FOR HALEIGH.HE ALSO SMELLS BS,RONALD AIN’T FOOLING NOBODY BUT HIMSELF.
AS I HAVE SAID BEFORE HE’S GOING TO THROW MISTY BUTT UNDER THE BUS.ANYTIME THAT CLOWN LET COBRA HEAR MISTY TELLING HIM TO GET AWAY FROM COBRA HE HAS NO LOVE FOR HER.
May 4th, 2009 at 5:41 pm
AS I SEE IT WHOM EVER HAS THIS CHILD DIDNT BARGIN FOR THIS AND THEY ARE GONNA BE THE ONES TO BREAK THIS CASE.IMO
I THINK RON AND MISTY BOTH KNOW WHERE SHE IS AND IT WAS FOR MONEY.IT WOULDNT SUPRISE ME THAT WHEN ALL THIS COMES OUT THEYVE BEEN KEEPING IN CONTACT WITH WHOSEVER GOT HER.AGAIN IMO
NAYNAY KNOWS BUT IS SCARED OR BEEN PAID WELL OR BOTH.DRUG ADDICTS WILL DO ALMOST ANYTHING FOR THE NEXT HIGH
EVERYONE JUST KEEP PRAYING FOR THIS FAMILY GOD BLESS U ART
May 4th, 2009 at 6:32 pm
When all is said and done, you should get your own TV program,
May 4th, 2009 at 9:27 pm
All these players are just a diversion, What happened to Haleigh, …..who cares about all these other players in this drug induced town,,,,,,this si rediculous, find this child please!
May 4th, 2009 at 10:25 pm
Dear Art, Cobra, & JVM,
Thanks for keeping Haleigh’s case alive and in the media. Media coverage will hopefully bring in the tips needed to break this case.
For those who are interested, below is the link to Cobra’s interview yesterday with Simon Barrett of Blog Talk Radio.
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/
It’s quite a lengthy dowload and Haleigh is the last topic covered. Cobra’s main points were:
- Cobra is distressed that he is personally spending more time and expense looking for Haleigh than her own father, Ronald Cummings, is.
- Cobra reports that Ron has spent his donation money he has received on two elaborate tatoos costing $400, a new car, an engagement ring for Misty, and ‘buying dope’. Ron has not used a penny of his donation fund for Haleigh to hire a private investigator. Ron has not personally been searching for his daughter while Cobra has been looking and questioning people every day.
- Ron is aware that Cobra is working pro bono, but has not even offered to fill Cobra’s gas tank or buy him lunch.
- Ron did call Cobra recently in the middle of the night to ask Cobra if Cobra planned to call him the minute he found Haleigh.
- Cobra feels Haleigh is alive and that the key to finding Haleigh is Misty telling the truth. (interesting that Cobra did not bring up the need for Ron and Teresa telling the truth even though they have both been caught lying.)
- When Cobra is asked why he feels Haleigh is alive and being held hostage, he says he has to believe it in order to keep going every day.
- Cobra’s personal impression of Crystal is that she is extremely worried about Haleigh’s fate and worry is taking an immense toll on her physically.
Listening to Cobra, I got the sense that he thinks Misty and Ron together – or – Misty alone sold off Haleigh for drugs.
Art, can you comment on whether you think Haleigh being sold for drugs / napped by a drug dealer is plausible?
Art, if LE does still believe Haleigh is alive, what do they make of three cadaver dogs hitting on the dumpster near Haleigh’s home?
May 5th, 2009 at 12:09 am
ronald is going to keep doing as he please when he please.pretty much go for misty. the law have not done anything to them, and probaly wont. i’am just so sick of it, if only they get rough we both maybe they will get some where to the real bold of truth. From Shamby
May 5th, 2009 at 12:32 am
Art,
I have question for you. Do you know if man that bailed out Naynay knows Ron somehow? They ALL seem to know about eachother?
Art, why don’t you sit Cobra, and whoever else would like to talk about where is Haleigh and how to find her on camera? Give that to JVM. I do not, NOT want this case to drop off the radar. I watched clip on Cobra talking about his search for her and I saw more emotion from him than almost any of these main characters. Breaks my heart. Not a day goes by for me that I do not search for more news about her and pray for her return. Haleigh holds a piece of my heart. Please don’t let her name be dropped.
take care
May 5th, 2009 at 1:05 am
LA-I should be able to answer the who knows ron and who doesn’t soon.
May 5th, 2009 at 1:30 am
Lisa–
Sure Haleigh could be in the hands of some drug dealer, if rumors of getting even prove true. LE feels certain she’s not in the area, especially with the Mexican drug folks in Crescent City; not an easy crowd to infiltrate but sources tell me they have informants there. This is a small community and at any time, the PCSD can round up the usual suspects and put heat as needed, the kind of heat Nay Nay and Amber’s benefactor tells me he’s feeling pretty heavy right about now. Just got off the phone with Jerome. But LE is also exploring family ties, Hatfield-McCoy hatreds and other angles about anyone close to the family. But Misty remains the key.
As for the dumpster, I got a chance to speak with the lead investigator and he said they searched not only the dumpster behind the trailer, but EVERY dumpster in the county within the first few hours of their alert Haleigh was missing.
The dogs were not PHDs in sniffing, I’m told, and hit on a sanitary napkin in the dumpster…LE searched it thoroughly, Capt. Dominic Piscitello told me the other day, trying to clear up rumors the LE dumpster diving didn’t go deep enough. It was very thorough, he says, with his team searching some of the dumpsters again. My question is what kind of dumb killer would dump a body there when there are so many lakes and rivers teeming with alligators?
On a day Ronald took Cobra to a lake near his house, I got to tag along, and heard Ronald talk about going fishing with cousin Joe and how Joe loved to watch alligators tear apart small animals for supper…
May 5th, 2009 at 1:42 am
lisa did this answer your question this time or can we look forward to you asking it again in a day or two?

The gators were hybrenating at that time, Art. Could be, but it sounded like it was cooler at that time when she went missing. They could hide food for later, (Oh my I said it) but I am not leaning this way. Maybe weighted down in something in the river, but not gators…Could be wrong.
May 5th, 2009 at 1:50 am
No, no, no, stay focused people. Haleigh was not sold, not even close. LE is saying they think Haleigh may still be alive to throw Ronald and Misty, let them feel very comfortable. Search! Where are all the gdamn searches? Haleigh can be found along the roadside between Ronalds trailer and PDM. Either that, or he weighted her down with cinder blocks and put her in the river. Hard words to type out, difficult to even believe, but Ronald killed Haleigh in a fit of rage and promised Misty if she went along with the story, he’d marry her and give her everything she ever wanted. Misty, coming from the unstable and dysfunctional background, jumped to the offer.
THAT is why there are a million inconsistencies. Their “script” isn’t an easy one to follow and often they get caught up forgetting their lines and recreating a new version. If I were le, at all costs, I would search high and low between Ronalds old employment and his trailer, why won’t le look? IDIOTS!!!! Sheriff Hardy better not be re-elected, he is failing Haleigh in a million ways, in my opinion.
May 5th, 2009 at 1:53 am
Joe sounds like a sicko. Keep reporting Art. You are doing a good job even if it ends up not having anyting to do with who took Haleigh. As far as Cobra, not to long ago he said he did not want to accept funds from either side so he would seem fair. Now he is mad that Ron is not paying him?
Is Crystal buying him gas and food? I spoke to Jamie Watts and he tells me that the fund can’t be abused. Ron had to submit bills and it only pays for the basic stuff. I think if it turns out that Ron Cumming’s did not abuse his kids and has nothing to do with Haleigh going missing, someone should give him a break. Buy him a home or something. I have never seen anything like this in my life. Close with Jessica Lundsford and Shasta Groene, but they got found before it got this crazy.
May 5th, 2009 at 2:41 am
Art,
I know who would be dumb enough to put a body in a dumpster.
Were the dogs human remains canines or the kind that also hit on body fluids, and were they trained with human remain scent or with pig scent? Because a true cadaver dog would not hit on a sanitary napkin unless the napkin was from a dead person. Did anyone else expire in the area?
May 5th, 2009 at 3:04 am
Naples FL,
I think you must have Ron’s website confused with Crystal’s.
Findhaleighnow is not taking donations. All people have to do is go to the site to see that is not true.
May 5th, 2009 at 3:10 am
Justice4Haleigh, where do you come up with this crap?
May 5th, 2009 at 3:10 am
Dogs are not Phds? What does that mean. Are you saying the dogs are poorly trained? It does depend who trained the dogs and it also depends what they are trained with. It depends if the dogs hit one at a time or saw each other alert. Just because they did not find anything does not mean something was not there at one time. I will have to guess here that these dogs are the kind of search dogs that are trained to find both fluids and death. Anyone know if these were FBI dogs? Who trained these dogs?
May 5th, 2009 at 3:14 am
naplesfl, kim p is doing the exact same thing rons lawyers are. only difference is shes putting herself on tv every chance she gets. who do you think came up with the haleighbug idea? its odd u trash rons lawyers for doing what crystals is but you praise kim. that logic is a$$backwards.
May 5th, 2009 at 3:19 am
llisa cobras made it very clear hes working for kim p and crystal. ron should be forkin out some cash but so should the ones that hired him.
May 5th, 2009 at 5:10 am
Justice4Haleigh—I agree completely!
May 5th, 2009 at 5:32 am
Question- If they say Ron was at work (Alibi) so how can he kill Haleigh and then Marry Misty to help him cover it up? This is one soap opera in the Making lol Or perhaps it should be a Movie called “As The Misty Lies” Thanks again Art, Cobra and JVM for keeping at this, I think the more the public keeps twisting the screws, hopefully the biotch Misty will crack. If she hasn’t nothing to hide, so then why not come out at tell the truth, oops duh she doesn’t want to lol which proves they all are hiding something, the Truth will come out, and the Lord is protecting that sweet Angel I wonder how many more characters they will find for this movie. Maybe the seat is getting hotter and this case will be cracked open soon! This stress isn’t very good for Crystal!! Thanks Again Art, JVM and Cobra, twist and twist those screws to crack these people! This poor Angel needs to be brought home to her Mother and brother soon!! Don’t let it slip into the cracks!!
May 5th, 2009 at 7:37 am
I still can’t bring myself to believe Ron knows where Haleigh is. Maybe I am stupid??
Something isn’t adding up. LE has made no arrest in this case. Which makes me believe there is NO evidence that Ron & Misty (or anyone) are involved.
Theories do not bring Haleigh home. And that is all I am reading. I do agree with the post who stated whoever took Haleigh, got more than they bargained for. It wasn’t meant to get this big. Is she alive?? I hope.
I do agree. Ron could buy Cobra a tank of gas or buy him a meal. However, where is the money from HaleighBug going??
Shouldn’t that money be helping Cobra out??
May 5th, 2009 at 9:40 am
llisa: How can you say Ron cant waste the money given in donations when he suddenly became rich? Well, lets say that is true. Did he get his “sudden” money from selling Haleigh?
I really dont think that he sold her. I also think that you really would have to be cold to “feed” a kid to the alligators, even if she was deseased, being a father. I am not even sure Misty is capable of that.
No I am not a fan of Ron and Misty. At the very least they are guilty of child abuse for the atmosphere they kids live in. But feeding them to the gators is something that I cant picture even low life Ron doing. YUCK!
Me thinks that the FBI should be called in because Me thinks the LE there is being paid off. Just my opinion, but Art, how believable do you find these guys in LE? ME thinks Ron gives them what they want so they wont talk.
May 5th, 2009 at 10:19 am
[ART HARRIS] I’am sick off this Art Harris, tell us we want to no right now, i’am getting VERY MAD. yes OR no.o.k. did misty croslin pass the polygraph test tell me. did ronald pass the polygraph test. tell us we need to no the truth.From Shamby.
May 5th, 2009 at 11:26 am
helping the lost, if youre so sure where haleigh is, how ’bout instead of calling LE idiots, you just go show them where she is? that would probably be more helpful than screaming at LE in every post, dontcha’ think?
May 5th, 2009 at 11:50 am
Naples,if you look at the site http://www.findhaleigh.com supposedly set up by an 11yr.old they are asking for donations for Mother(Crystal)to be sent to Jamie Watts,Watt Funeral Home,he’s the guy that is accepting donations strictly for Ron,I also heard online it could have been rumor,but I heard it was not 11yr old girl that set it up but woman from Arizona I believe,I don’t know if this is true but I find it strange that they would ask for donations for Crystal to be sent to Jamie Watts,I sent them an email and said I thought that was misrepresentation to list it that way,it looks like it’s going to Crystal when it’s obviously going to Ron IMO there are to many cooks in the kitchen.I would donate to Crystal rather than Ron because at least her lawyer is over-seeing the account and they have brought Cobra in what has Ron brought in besides beer,cigs and lottery tickets.JMO
May 5th, 2009 at 1:24 pm
I agree with llisa all this hate/rumors directed at Ron. My goodness his daughter is missing and he is the one that has taken the best care of her all her life acording to the court documents.
Most of these hate filled rumors are coming from the maternal side and WS forum. That is all they talk about over there just making up hate rumors and spreading them everywhere. Why the need to slander Ron? I find it really suspicious that the focus of all these rumors are on the Dad. Is it just a ploy to gain custody for the mother regardless of Haleigh’s life being put more in jeopardy?
May 5th, 2009 at 1:34 pm
I WAS WATCHING AT LARGE WITH GERALDO THIS PAST SUNDAY NIGHT. ROBIN MEADE WAS SITTING IN FOR GERALDO. THEY WERE DISCUSSING THE MADEILINE MCCAN STORY. THE 3 YEAR OLD THAT WAS ABDUCTED IN PORTUGAL. ONE OF THE COMMENTATORS ON THE SHOW MADE A VERY INTERESTING COMMENT. HE SAID” YOU DON’T EVER CLEAR ANYONE IN A HOMICIDE INVESTIGATION” THIS MADE ME THINK OF THIS CASE. HALIEGH WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU BABY. WE ALL WANT YOU HOME. I AM PRAYING FOR GOD TO SEND YOU HIS ANGELS AND KEEP YOU UNTIL WE CAN FIND YOU. KEEP CRACKIN ART, COBRA, KP AND JVM. GODS SPEED
May 5th, 2009 at 2:07 pm
Naples FL….I don’t live in Florida and even I am boiling at this point about Ron’s lawyer new page. I smell the same bullsh*t I smelled with Casey Anthony. People who don’t know all the pieces to this story are natuarally gonna feel sorry for that sad ass father figure and SEND MONEY. Send money for his lifestyles of the ‘Trash and Famous’ to continue. He could have helped Cobra or maybe grew a pair, sucked up his pride and joined Haleighs ‘real’ mother at that center! If he at all cared about his child for starters he wouldn’t have ever let Misty watch her and he wouldn’t have been not looking since the press picked up his drug records and his brides trashy ass ways. Sorry for the lang, but I am floored right now!!
Just to make sure I got this right,,up to this point. Crystal started Haleighbug for donations to help find Haleigh and yet she hasn’t giving any money to Cobra or any P.I. but has an attorney taking her money, no job, and other children. So donations are for what again???
Ron now wants the public to send him money through his lawyers. Yet Ron hasn’t been working, I’m pretty sure I haven’t seem Ron helping Cobra or getting his own P.I. I know he was getting donations yet no searches with that money came about. Just tats, fairs, weddings….Did I miss something?????
Sorry Art, you know up this point I have been trying to keep my peace and cool over all these people lives. This is just over the top!!
May 5th, 2009 at 2:51 pm
To Ilisa: so you spoke to Jamie Watts and he said the fund can’t be abused; what about the collection jars? I bet he never had to account for them and spent every last penny as soon as he got them. Sorry, I think your statement is bull.
May 5th, 2009 at 4:10 pm
Cadaver dogs don’t hit on sanitary napkins. What a joke Putnam LE is. They have the IQ and experience of a rock.
Art, do tell us all again how you rode shotgun with the 2nd Marines. A source tells me you were in the infirmary the whole time, having vapors. Why did CNN let you go again?
May 5th, 2009 at 7:03 pm
This question may have been answered, and I missed it..The dumpsters have been checked, but has the landfill/s in the area? TIA
May 5th, 2009 at 8:34 pm
Poster #16 llisa, YOU have got to be kidding me…..Buy Ronald C a home…..Whether he did away with his daughter or he didn’t,,,just the fact, that he is a pedophile who beds, and impregnates teenagers is enough for him to be banned to an island all by himself. Or jailed and fed nothing but bread (stale) and water. Some people in this world are just plain crazy…RC has done nothing but place his children in harm’s way ,and expose them to his druggie friends and he is the scum of this earth…sheeeech
May 5th, 2009 at 10:05 pm
Art,
I think you should start a missing children program. You have such passion for reporting, and I think it would be great help in finding children; before it’s too late. Thanks again, for keeping Haleigh in the news.!
May 6th, 2009 at 3:26 am
Lisa did you get bumped on the head or something? Someone buy RC a home when this is all over?? OMG For what?? Allowing a 16 year old to come into his life to to live with, do drugs with, have sex with and lord only knows what else with. Oh almost forgot the most important thing, leave the responsibility of nuturing and caring for his 2 small children to an ill fit minor???
Oh yeah people, let’s buy Ron Cummings a home. Let’s throw in a new Ford Truck, season tickets to Nascar and lifetime free tatoo’s while we are at it. If you have extra drugs in your medicine cabinet, I am sure they will be welcome too.
Wow, that post just threw me for loop. Buy him a new house when the true man out there truly looking for Haleigh can hardly get a tank of gas or a decent meal from this backwoods town.
May 6th, 2009 at 3:35 am
BTW, my post was responding to llisa not Lisa.
May 6th, 2009 at 5:23 am
Barney: so much for your sources…where did you serve? try google.
May 6th, 2009 at 7:16 am
The Haleigh Bug Center is still there in all of it’s purple glory. Yet, since the mother, Crystal had her seizure there the weekend before last, the place has been closed. Zipped, nada, no one there. Haven’t seen Cobra lurking around either, lately. Have seen plenty of LEO, undercover even, in major quantity in the area.
May 6th, 2009 at 7:25 am
You know what #29-ethel… I went to the link you posted and from what i saw it looks like a place to aplly for a job!! Is that the correct link, it looks funny. Still praying that they bring this adorable child home soon ((((Haleigh))) Love ya: *MUAH* oxox
May 6th, 2009 at 8:22 am
AskedandAnswered – The ppl that are actually out there searching for Haleigh are doing it on their time and with their money! Ronald’s attorney is/was PRO-BONO, meaning they are doing it free of charge. Then, they set up another website asking for money? I guess he is going to have to because Ronald is not going to give a dime to anyone!
Funds should be for the search/reward of a missing child, not for profitting your own habits, etc. I would love to have a brand new truck or vehicle. Crystal did thank ppl by having a cookout. She was taking tips on the whereabouts of Haleigh, but those have dwindled. I don’t hear everyday that she is out shopping, buying cars, gambling.
The only way KP can get information out there is to go on TV because no one else is doing it or talking! That town must have a lot of “skeletons” and “secrets” because no one is talking. I hope the person(s) withholding information get persecuted also. It is costing taxpayers a lot of money, not just Satsuma.
There is the website findhaleighnow and findhaleigh. There is also Jaime Watts Funeral home, Bank of America Account, and jars at local establishments for Ronald. Now, tell me who is profiting?
May 6th, 2009 at 9:34 am
Gramma: are you TN? YOu sure sound like her. What does this statement mean?
Is it just a ploy to gain custody for the mother regardless of Haleigh’s life being put more in jeopardy?
Do you know something? Do you know if Chrystals family keeps talking it will put Haleighs life in more danger? Wow, sure sounds like it. Can you explain that statement?
May 6th, 2009 at 11:45 am
Yes, Jaime Watts is collecting and managing that fund for RONALD, not Crystal.
May 6th, 2009 at 11:51 am
Question for Art – do you have any idea if Jason Squires is Ron’s cousin? If so, do you know why he had a civil order against him a couple of years ago for sexual violence?
Also, Putnam County Jail booked in someone named Chrisopher Sumner last night with a big bail of over $250K. Looks like he was wanted in Clay County for trafficking in oxycodone. Any rumors or indications that he may have known the locals, like Amber, Greg, Nay Nay, Lindsay, Misty, etc?
May 6th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
Sharilyn,you are so right,I just went there but that’s not the same site as it was when I put up the link,that is too weird,I’m going to keeping looking for the right one,they have possibly removed the site because I went there the day I posted the link and sent them an e-mail asking what adult was supervising the contents of the site,I swear I have no reason to lie about it,it was there.Sorry if you think I posted wrong info I don’t know what’s going on.WEIRD!Makes me think I’m lossing my mind lol.
May 6th, 2009 at 3:32 pm
Art, I am forwarding e-mail to you that I sent to http://www.findhaleigh.com and you maybe can tell me if I am losing my mind,the site was there,I sent them e-mail about the wrong info being on it and said it should be corrected,now the site has totally changed.I SWEAR I’M NOT NUTS.Will forward e-mail to you and see what you think.Thanks so much,Ethel.
May 6th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
Never mind Art,I’m not going NUTS,just did AOL keyword search for Haleigh Cummings page 15 of search had a site http://www.findhaleigh.com and showed info above the link that made it related to case so obviously the site has been redone and is now a job search site.I still find it strange seems like someone got caught!Thanks Art,you don’t have to post the comments waiting moderation now,I’m really not going nuts lol…Thank you and keep digging but be careful..
May 6th, 2009 at 4:04 pm
Sharilyn,if you click back on that site and look in upper right corner,site is under construction,my complaint must have reached someone! Interested to see what replaces it!

Art , I have written a few times on here and for the most part in my writings it has been to give you the accolades you so deserve in keeping the spirit of that precious angel Haleigh alive.
I, like many others, only wish for Precious Angel Haleigh’s safe return.
The saddest part of all this is the hatred this tragedy/mystery has brought out of the family members, internet investigators and yes PRO-BONO Lawyers.
It is expected that there will be many that will offer their opinions,theories and accusations but truth be known there is only one person that knows what happened to that Precious Angel we call Haleigh, and that is the Lord above, however there are one or more people that also know but are too afraid, ashamed, and/or have no remorse in their deed that they have done.
I am not here to cast stones nor judge anyone , Just want that Precious Angel found. In these types of cases ,people no longer live in their comfort zone but in glass houses and somewhere along all the accusations, reports made on their behalf,whether good or bad there is some truth however those are issues that they will have to answer to authorities at a later time or to a higher authority.
In closing Art ,I would like to make an offer to Cobra, I don’t have much as far as monetary, however we can offer a home-cooked meal, a place to sleep and good conversation at best.
We live in Palatka, so would give a place of refuge when needed and still close to where he needs to be. If interested you may forward my e-mail for contact purposes.
God Bless the Little Precious Angel we have all grown to love and care for.

naples #43 you ask who is profitting? lets see. which parent is working? neither. which parent is searching? neither. which parent had 3 minutes of prime media coverage and never once mentioned haleigh? crystal. which parent is on drugs? both. which attorney is pro bono? both. which attorney is going on tv and bashing the other parent repeatedly with “facts” that have been thrown back in her face with domented facts? kim p. which parent is carrying around a jar at every event they can find for donations? crystal. which parent has a bank account set up for donations? both. which parent is getting funds from jars in stores? ron. which parent isnt putting their face using the other ones recent medical drama to paint the other parent in a bad light? ron. but you can bet your a$$ kim p would be jumping all over it if it was ron and demanding drug tests. where are crystals by the way? why isnt kim sharing those results? hmmmm. gotta wonder why, no? there are two sides to this drama. youre just choosing to harp on one.

Has anyone in LE bothered to check out the pharmacies in the area for medications for Haliegh. Who filled the prescriptions, who picked them up and did law enforce3ment follow up. Haliegh needs medications for Turner’s syndrome and the quickest way to find her is to find out who filled them. Date, Dr. and expiration date are on the bottles as well as the phone number of the person who filled them. LE’ get off your butts and go find her. IT MAY BE TO LATE.
May 8th, 2009 at 1:38 am
Ron got rich? Last I heard he had to move in with his grandmother. I have read that
http://www.findhaleighnow.com is talking donations for Ron. I went to this website and NO DONATIONS are asked for or even accepted anywhere. So why the lie? I was told by Jamie Watts that he collected less than $5,000 and that under Florida Law it could only be used for basic living expenses.
If this account and this is the only one has less than $5,000 and the reward fund is under thirty thousand than chances are NOBODY is getting rich here. I would like very much to know what the heck people are talking about Ron Cumming’s getting rich. He lost his job and I am sure he has lost more money not working than ALL the money collected in some jars. Which I have read were put out by the owners of local establishments, NOT by Ron Cumming’s himself. Crystal on the other hand has been on Geraldo saying about Haleighbug when asked what Haleighbug is all about “If anyone wants to do any donations…………” and Crystal has been to local events with her family with purple jars to collect for Haleighbug….if you go to the website http://www.haleighbug.com you will see that is very clearly states that money collected (by calling the 800 number)goes to Crystal for her living expenses. It used to say to feed and cloth Junior and Cloe. My point is that Crystal has not worked in years, she has not paid her child support for at least a year, so why does she now need money for her living expenses? She said it was so she could stay in the local area but she herself has said she has family she is staying with in the local area. Ron Cumming’s has not asked for money. So why are people saying that he is?
Crystal herself has asked for money and everyone gives her a pass when she did not even have a job? I also wonder if her motivation is putting forth these false alligations about the black eye is so that she will look better and be able to collect the money. Maybe she got upset when she came to Satsuma and saw that Ron Cumming’s had support. That Jamie Watts had to take her name off the account because she did not live with Haleigh. Even if we just say Crystal is a saint, she just needs money for whatever when she did not have a job in the first place, why is it wrong for Ron to have an account set up under Florida law when he is the custodial parent and he had a job? I do not see the logic in some of these posts. Unless it is that Crystal reached her goal and everyone believes Ron is so bad he does not deserve help with basic living expenses. What a nice goal to have when your daughter is missing. The court records can be found on fox online, three hearings and two judges basically found Crystal to be an unfit. Criminal record of BOTH Crystal and Ron were disregarded by the judge because it was in the past. Read the record if you care to have the facts. I do not see any proof that Ron Cumming’s has any riches other than Internet rumors.
1.He got a tattoo (paid for by someone that specifically wanted to give him a tattoo, maybe the tattoo place looking for publicity?)
2.He got her a ring. (the ring was his mothers, who got it from her mother) We do not even know if it is real.
3.The fair. (It is total B.S that someone would spend $1,000 at a fair) also the person that posted that here claimed “everyone” was taking pictures. That was sometime ago where are the pictures?
4.He got a new truck. (what new truck?) He had a new truck at the start of this thing, it is seen on the news. So, what new truck? He also had the Ultima it was also in news footage. What new car? Cobra said he had a new car?
What new car? Art????
I am so sick of the lies. Yes, I think that Ron Cumming’s is being slandered all to high hell and I can’t figure out why people are so nasty. His daughter is missing. The “mother” I think is behind this and these rumors since she is so concerned about how she looks on the Internet and has brought it up on the news. I would think she would be more interested in bringing up her missing child rather than bringing up how she wants people to talk nice about her on the Internet. I think she has succeeded in reaching her goals and the public does not care if it is the truth or not. Kim Picazio has no regard for the truth and she proved that with her television appearances and this black eye that occurred at school. Crystal has no regard for the truth and she lied so many times I have lost count. Cobra I had some respect for but this last interview just proves he is Kim and Crystal’s good pal and if he needs money he should asked them for some and not Ron Cumming’s who lost his job and is living with his grandmother. Anyone who does not believe what I am saying about this account can email Jamie Watts at Watts funeral home and ask him about the account he set up and he will tell you. Some people seem to have a strange definition of rich.
Ron Cumming’s had custody for a reason. He was taking care of his kids and not receiving even a basic amount of child support. He may not be a perfect parent but he was found to be the better parent. The “mother” has managed to turn this situation upside down and nobody has any regard for the truth in this situation. For example the photo he has up is from November and Haleigh went missing in early Feb. Someone is upset that is not a recent photo? She has a mark from a band aid and it looks like a blood test- Someone says it is a bite mark made by the father- He has a website that posts his side of the story and the basic facts-Someone says he is just out to collect more money. Is this because he is different and comes from a whole different background and life that we can’t even see him as a person? Because the mother is doing a real good job at pretending like she is more like mainstream U.S.A but in reality she is just the same and from the same life as the father. The father was found to be the better parent. He had custody for a very good reason. The mother did not know anything about her own child. If you listen to her early on her favorite line is “I have no idea” when asked about Haleigh.
So if DFS done with their investigation? Why does Ron still have Junior? I am waiting to see if they take Junior away.
If they do not then what? I mean with all the media focus I am sure DFS will dot their i’s and cross their T’s. So, if they find no abuse and leave Junior with Ron Cumming’s, then what? Does everyone still believe Crystal who lies all the time on national television and never gets called on it except once by Nancy Grace? Probably. And yes that is why I think someone should give Ron Cumming’s something. He not only lost his child but his character has been assassinated to high hell by a woman that is less than credible and the public and the media have allowed and even encouraged it.
It is a sad state of affairs. Believe me if the situation was reversed and Ron had done this to Crystal. I would feel the same way but in support of Crystal. Funny thing is I have not heard Ron Cumming’s take much of a swipe at Crystal. Even though the facts back him up.
May 8th, 2009 at 2:01 am
Art, it said in the aricle posted today, that Ronald went back to the home that little Hakeigh came up missing from to see if it was reanted out yet.
Wonder why he didnt just call the realtor if he wanted to know this.
I think he is afraid that someone else might just find something there.
I believe the clock is ticking against him. H e knows its just a matter of time before it strikes that hour when the truth is finally gonna come out.
May 8th, 2009 at 6:09 am
llisa I won’t even try to tell you that there are two sides to this because you have chosen only to see Ron’s however I must point out a few things,you say Ron has never took a swipe at Crystal did you see the Today show interview with his new bride where he said with his sarcastic attitude that he didn’t believe Jr. had told Crystal anything,that’s pretty much calling her a liar,Crystal has admitted her drug use when she was with him why would she do drugs and not Mr. Wonderful,he to this day denies his drug use,Crystal is manning that Center selling shirts and things to make money she’s not just sitting there with her hand out or going around town picking up collection jars,and she gave the cookout to thank the community for their kindness,how has Ron thanked them,and as far as losing his job WHOSE fault is that,he should have contacted his boss he was not too distraught to get married or go to New York,you notice I’m not mentioning fair or mudbogging stuff that has not been proven.I’m bringing up documented facts.One phone call and IMO he would still have a job and why would he not want to live in the same house Haleigh was taken from,what if she were to find her way back there and no one was waiting for her?SAD this whole thing is sad and I want to ask you one thing as a mother(if you are one)could you marry the person who is with-holding information from LE and the FACTS show that she is not telling consistent stories..I don’t believe either parent is beyond reproach but you seem to think Ron is.What’s up with that?
May 8th, 2009 at 6:28 am
llisa – It was not a lie about the donation. It was there when the website was first posted and believe it was removed because of the outrage. It was there because I though it was unethical for an attorney to agree to do the case pro-bono and then set up the site.
Secondly, it was reported on here that Ronald was seen going to places and emptying jars to pay for his beer and cigarettes and other items. I didn’t see it but others did. If you read all of the entries to Art’s stories, you will see.
If Jaime Watts has an account set up for Ronald then that one is different from the one that was set up at Bank of America BY Ronald for Ronald and Junior. He set it up himself. That was in the local newspaper right after Haleigh went missing.

RE: llisa
As stated in todays Palatka Daily News, DCF is still investigating the Cummings case. You actually sound like a very angry cummings family memeber. And as i’ve noticed in some of your other posts you have resorted to calling other posters names, like idiot, for posting thier views. Perhaps you would be better fitted on the CL R&R where it is common for posters to call each other names. Keep in mind it was under Ron and Mistys watch that this baby came up missing, not Chrystals, were it reversed Chrystal would be under fire. As is common, those who are the last to be around a missing person are always a suspect and the first to be ruled out of foul play, this hasn’t happened. If only these two would have came out of the gate with the whole truth efforts would have been concentrated on other areas of the investigation, and Ron and Misty would have some sympathy shown them.

#62 Naples-I looked on site myself after you posted and I’m 99.9% sure I saw that also but after people jumped on you about I went look again and it was gone….hmmmmm
I know what I read. Seems to be worded little different now. Now says “Any information or assistance regarding Haleigh is encouraged”
I also remember watching clip when someone from funeral spoke about giving donations to funeral home on Ronalds behalf because I remember thinking how terrible that was. Why a funeral home? Why not a church or bank?
And
It does say living expenses on Crystals site and not just to look for Haleigh.

#59 llisa:
I have been reading these posts for a long time and only recently have I posted anything. I feel for the children in this whole affair. Both parents have some fault here but arent we all human and now with hindsight being 20/20 we have all become armchair QB’s. As the old saying goes,” opinions are like a**holes, everyone has one”. Whether you like it or not the spotlight falls on Ron and Misty because this child went missing under their watch and from under their roof! Most LE knows thats where they start to look and for the most part the “last” person to see the victim alive is usually the one that is “responsible” for what happened to the missing person. Now, I have posted my opinion before as to what I think happened here. I find it very “odd” that Ron would not only not care what Misty did or where Misty was during her wild weekend… Ron “rewarded” Misty by standing by her after Haleigh went missing during Misty’s watch, by marrying her (I don’t think it is a reward} Ron’s family also praised and stood by Misty… why? I think Ron and his family are using this dumb teenager to coverup what they or Ron did to Haleigh while Misty was gone? This is the only reason I can see for Ron and his family backing Misty so hard… they are using Misty to coverup what really happened to Haleigh. Think about it folks? Why, wouldn’t Ron care what Misty was doing on her wild sex and drug filled weekend? What could have happened that Ron was so willing to welcome Misty back? He needed Misty to cast LE off the real trail! I hope I’m wrong but nothing else makes sense to me.
May 8th, 2009 at 5:01 pm
Thank you Art, Cobra and Jane for staying on this story. I’m glad some people out there really care what happened to Haleigh. God bless this child…

May 9th, 2009 at 4:24 am
KiKi, yes that would make sense except that LE has said Ron Cumming’s was at work. People saw Haleigh after he went to work. I am trusting what LE has said here. If they are giving out false information, then you could be right. I am trusting that they are not. I think it makes more sense that the mother took her for custody or Misty was gone or did something. I do not think the entire family is lying to cover for the dad. Sorry, I just do not. We can agree to disagree.
May 9th, 2009 at 4:30 am
La-girl lindy and Naples Florida. The website set up by Ron Cumming’s never took donations. The only site Ron Cumming’s has anything to do with is find haleigh now. Jamie Watts set up an account for both parents early on. He had to take Crystal off because under the law in Florida she could not be on the account. Ron Cummings did not ask Jamie Watss to set up the account. Neither did Crystal. He did it to be helpful, because he knew Ron could not work. Under the law the account goes only for living expenses. People are lying about how the money is being spent. Jamie Watts is following the law. Ron Cumming’s never asked for a dime.
I just do not like it at all when bullshit becomes truth because someone decides they will post it for fun. I started out on Crystal’s side. One lie after another I changed my mind. The lies continue.
May 9th, 2009 at 4:37 am
Naples, I read the post about the jars and I have no idea why you would believe a post. Ron Cumming’s did not set up an account for him and Junior at Bank of America. Only one was set up by Jamie Watts. You are mistaken. The website Find Haleigh now never took any kind of donations. You may be confused with a website called findhaleigh that someone set up early on. They tried to collect with paypal. Outrage followed and they changed it around and posted the account set up by Jamie Watts as well as Jamie Watts address for donations to Crystal and Ron. Ron could not have set up an account because under Florida law only one can exist and Jamie Watts set it up, he set it up very early. I am 100% positive or I would not be posting this. I am just tired of the lies. That is all. The truth would be nice, bald or not.
May 9th, 2009 at 4:41 am
Perry, oh yes of course anyone that wants the truth must be a cumming’s family member. So, I assume you are from the Sheffield family
I do not support Ron. I did not call anyone a name. Facts do not change. Just because I do not like posts that are bullshit………… I mean so many are obvious lies. It is very easy to check. I guess nobody wants to. Say hi to Crystal.
May 9th, 2009 at 7:38 am
Jeff #54 …. Thank you, I truly hope Cobra contacts you..God Bless you and yours.
llisa #59 …. I agree with you, but I’ll admit I am so confused as to why he married Misty, and I do think Misty knows more than she’s revealed so far. My hope is that once Haleigh is found that Ron takes himself, Haleigh, Jr. & Jordan (if he is his son) out of that miserable environment as quickly as possible and start a new life for themselves … I’m afraid if not, young Haleigh herself will end up just like the Amber’s Nay Nay’s and Misty’s of Palatka.

how can any of yoe actually sit and say that ron was a good parent, are you dumb deaf and blind?!?!??! All the bruises that this little angel had on her and not to mention all the drugs that were being passed around her and little jur, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves. I pray with my little 3 yr old verynight that she is found safe and unharmed, i beleive in my heart that she may still be alive , wether it is true or not, it helps me sleep at night. I truly think that ron had a big part in the disapperance of the little girl and i am eith th one who said that he married misty to keep her quiet, end of story!! Thank God for Art and Cobra for keeping haliegh alive in the publics eyes, i think they care about her more than big daddy ron and his teeny bopper wife does!!!! Kudos to you guys and i hope you find her soon
May 9th, 2009 at 12:23 pm
In today’s edition of the Palatka Daily News, which didn’t really reveal any staggering new, news… At least they put little Haleigh on the forefront, yet again… Anyway, it was stated in the article, “Picazio now has a full-time employee at the building, which she pays for herself.” When did this happen? No one has been seen there this past week! It’s locked up tight with no traffic at all to be seen there. Also it was reported in the article that the center is there to collect money to print fliers, t-shirts and wrist bands to distribute in the area festivals and such, to raise awareness of missing Haleigh. It has also been said that Sheffield family and friends plan on being in the Jacksonville area, possibly the TPC functions and the Fernadina festival to pass out fliers and raise awareness of missing Haleigh. They are also planning to be present for the Blue Crab festival at the end of this month in Palatka, doing much of the same thing. K.P. on JVM via phone said that she didn’t know what Ron Cummings was doing, but that he was more than welcome to join the Sheffield family in their endeavors… T.J. Hart states that Ron and Misty are living with his Grandmother in Welaka, a Mrs. A. Sykes, which is about 5 miles south/west of Satsuma. They moved there with her, after they were asked to vacate the tent/trailer area by Putnam county codes…well before he ‘lost’ his job, as he refused to move back into the trailer they’d been living where Haleigh went missing, after police released the site. In the PDNews it also said that Mrs. T. Neves stated that they’re still holding nightly prayer vigils there on Front Street, in Welaka and that the public is invited to join them.
Mmmmmm….
May 9th, 2009 at 1:07 pm
Just got back from a veg. stand run for items and asked some of the locals there if they’d seen Cobra in the area… No one has seen him in some time… Art, is he gone?
An update; The Haleigh Bug Center is open with 5 chairs sitting out front (empty, but inviting) and a car parked in front.

As far as any Foundations or Funds set up for Haleigh
Who ever is running the Fund can, by law, desigante up to 70% of the monies collected to administartive costs to pay the “volunteers” and themselves for their time and effort
That is a FACT
May 9th, 2009 at 4:12 pm
Ger–
I reported weeks ago that they were living at the Sykes trailer behind the Kangaroo convenience store…that’s the spot where Cobra and I met deputies with the Putnam County sheriff’s department who came out to check on possible domestic issues. We’d just had dinner with Ron at MeMa’s, where Cobra brought up Misty and WBG, and pressed him to line Misty up for a walk through of the trailer as she’d promised earlier…That’s when Misty called, with Ronald reporting she was screaming in the phone for him to get home, and then changed her mind about the Cobra walk through.
May 9th, 2009 at 10:45 pm
#74 Ger, most of that’s way old news. I don’t know where this person is that Kim says she hired, because I was there earlier today, and though there were lawn chairs out front (which have been there every time I’ve been out there), there was no one at the center, and the same car that’s been parked there for weeks was still parked there…in the same spot it’s always parked in.

=================================
From Art:
First of all, I don’t vouch for the accuracy of any comment on the site except my own, and when I learn I’m flat out wrong, will retract… But that doesn’t mean I’m going to respond to any naysayer who thinks they’ve found a gotcha, when they are not journalists and I know the reporting is questionable…Whoever interviewed Cobra on BNN, for example, obviously misreported or misunderstood his comments about Nay Nay and Amber as they relate to the Haleigh probe, and I appreciate very much his clarifying that in his recent post here. I asked if that star struck blogger had a tape of the interview and if so, to post it…that it might help clarify, and back up their transcribed notes…
Regardless, Cobra’s statement as reported was not accurate, so pointed it out, not blaming Cobra…or slamming the writer…anyone can misunderstand, just don’t claim your epistle is the gospel truth…none of us here want anyone to p— on our leg and tell us it’s rain.
As for the misquote or misspeak about Nay Nay and Amber, for me that raises questions about the accuracy and context of everything else in the article… You all know the “I heards” and “someone saids” that are cited as attribution for so much rumor and innuendo and opinion that flies about here…it’s entertaining, but not necessarily credible. I allow it because it sparks debate and others to perhaps correct with bonafide and verifiable info….I let my posters do the policing as much as possible. I wish I could do this full time and respond to everyone, but for now, will just have to weigh in when possible…
Earlier Saturday, someone wrote they’d gotten an e mail from Kim P, in fact said they’d just spoken to her, that she was having a press conference Monday, and had something important to tell the media…I asked the person to send me the e mail…haven’t looked yet to see if they did, but KP says she has no idea who it is and has no plans to do any such thing, never talked to anyone about it, and has no idea what the poster is talking about…Sooooooooo
Now I hope you all can better understand why I let the comments area enjoy almost free reign to debate and duke it out, as long as it doesn’t get profane, threatening or terribly personal or insulting. The First Amendment rules here, but I will draw the line with those out to slam for slam’s sake and mislead with malice, who hold themselves out as righteous arbiters of truth, when they may know only part of the story…none of us profess to know it all…or even half of it all…journalism is a mere snapshot of history…but we can try to attribute where we get information we put here within the bounds of our source relationships…That’s what I hope will distinguish the Bald Truth from other sites, and is one reason you all keep coming back…

Asked and answered re #76–
As I posted above, I didn’t expect a copy of the e mail he got because she never sent one and says she never talked to this person, doesn’t know who it is and has no plans to give a presser Monday…good catch.
May 10th, 2009 at 1:32 am
Art, that is my point. I think you are honest even if I think sometimes it is one sided. But people are putting comments on the site that are not fact. I even think they are making them up and it is really sad. Also coping posts and making it seem like Art Harris says it is a fact. As I have said before I felt sorry for Crystal. But then I started reading court papers and listening carefully to her and her mom. The more lies that get told the more I support Ron Cumming’s. Because if people have to lie to make him look bad, he must not be that bad to start with. That is how I feel.

#74 Ger, most of that’s way old news. I don’t know where this person is that Kim says she hired, because I was there earlier today, and though there were lawn chairs out front (which have been there every time I’ve been out there), there was no one at the center, and the same car that’s been parked there for weeks was still parked there…in the same spot it’s always parked in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not about to get into a posting match with you…however, Some of what I posted, wasn’t exactly new, news to me. I’m sorry if my post irritated you. When I first drove by, I saw the chairs out front and that is the first time I’ve seen anything out front all week, during the times I’ve driven by. By the time I was returning home, there was a car parked out front, but I didn’t see anyone outside. Again, the times that I’ve driven by the center, there was no car parked. The place looked deserted. I guess we travel by the center at different time frames and see different things…
Art, I’m sure you wrote about Ron and Misty living in Welaka with his grandma Sykes… I didn’t realize that they were still having nightly prayer vigils on Front street. BTW, where’s Cobra?
May 10th, 2009 at 3:00 am
I’d like to clarify something for all the people that think Ronald is being slammed for nothing. First of all lets put things into perspective, Haleigh was living with Ronald Cummings.It was Ronald Cummings that had a teenage girl that, by her own admittance, had been gone for the past three days partying and was worn out and tired because of this and also she said that her and Ronald had been fighting, but he still left these two children at home with her when he went to work. Now in his court papers he told the Judge that the children would be looked after by his Mother while he was working but was that where they were? NO, they were with Misty, a girl he had just met a few months prior and had already been leaving these children with her all the same, I would say that was not good thinking on his part already. Now if it was your child that was there that night and came up missing I dont think you would be standing up and praising this Man for the facts I just posted now would you. No Ronald has done alot that he had no mbusiness doing and he has proven what kind of Man he is just by his past actions and Im say if he isnt guilty for Haleighs dissapearance, then he is guilty by association, he allowed this to happened by his own actions and so therefore I dont blame people for talking about him, for when its all said and done he is gonna wish thats all he had to worry about!!!!
May 10th, 2009 at 3:24 am
art, i know if i didn’t space that out people might read it wrong, and that’s what happened. naples fl wrote the quote below in a comment:
“naples FL said: Secondly, it was reported on here that Ronald was seen going to places and emptying jars to pay for his beer and cigarettes and other items. I didn’t see it but others did. If you read all of the entries to Art’s stories, you will see.”
my response to her was this:
- if it was reported on here it must be true!!! you didnt see it but here you are posting it as fact.
does that make more sense? i was basically telling her that just because she saw it posted here in a public comment section by an anonymous poster doesn’t mean it’s true or that it’s a verifiable fact. sorry for the confusion.
May 10th, 2009 at 3:38 am
Art, what I do not get is that if it is true that Jamie Watts had to take Crystal off the account because she is not the custodial parent, how is it that she has an account now? I mean is this a technical issue because the one Watts set up was under the missing child rules and for a family of a missing child and Crystal’s is to run Haleighbug? It seems to me like it is the exact same thing? I really would like to know.
May 10th, 2009 at 5:56 am
Cobra it was not part of the deal for you to take donations that should go to Haleighbug.
May 10th, 2009 at 5:58 am
Do not bad talk Crystal Cobra. Unless you want her to bad mouth you back.
May 10th, 2009 at 9:57 am
AskedAndAnswered – nothing anyone says that does not agree with you, you attack. Let it go.
Whomever is involved in the disapearance of Haleigh will get what they deserve. IMO, the perps are/were residents of that trailer. I do not hear KP getting paid, period. Prove to me she is collecting money for herself. I don’t hear Crystal going out and spending money like Ronald was.
Like I said….I will read Art’s blogs but I am not going to participate because all it has become is bickering. No one’s opinion counts anymore.
May 10th, 2009 at 3:56 pm
Naples, you do not hear about Crystal spending money like Ron was? That is because the place you heard Ron was spending money was in the comments section of this site. Probably posted by Crystal, her family or her supporters.
I someone wanted to make a rumor that Crystal was abusing her fund, it would be easy to do so. For some reason people just want to make Ron look bad. You keep posting like it is fact he abused money. It is not fact, it is fiction.
May 10th, 2009 at 3:59 pm
Ask and Answered. I was on the site the day it went up. I saw no place where donations were accepted. Besides if the lawyer wanted donations for himself, why is Naples saying Ron was asking for money to abuse? It is not the same thing.
May 10th, 2009 at 4:02 pm
#95 Naples – Respectfully, where has Ron spent money? The money that has been donated to him is for living expenses and finding Haleigh, I believe he has to produce receipts for every $ that is spent, but I don’t know that for sure.
He had the truck before Haleigh went missing, the ring was originally his grandmothers, $1,000 at a fair??????? how and on what? That’s a lot of Candy Floss, and to date, whomever made that claim hasn’t been unable to substantiate it.
As llisa says, we need facts and proof, not hearsay.
May 10th, 2009 at 4:05 pm
Crystal is out buying new clothing, make up and nails that she did not have before Haleighbug went up. Crystal did not have a job for over two years and did not pay child support.
She got a notice to go to court two days before Haleigh went missing. She has said she is staying with family. So, why does she need all this money? What do you think Crystal is doing with all this money? Because clearly she is receiving way more that Jamie Watts did for Ron Cumming’s, who lost a job and had an income. He lost his income and had bills to pay because he supported his family. The account Watts set up is only for those basic bills. Crystal does not have those bills or did not until Haleigh went missing and she decided to move to Satsuma to collect money.
This is very biased to pick on the father when he is the one with the job. I do not know if Picazio is collecting money but a Jeff Picazio was listed as in charge of Haleigh bug. On the website
May 10th, 2009 at 7:24 pm
naples, youre one of the most argumentative people on this thread. you spread gossip and innuendo more than anyone else ive seen, and get angry if your bs is countered with actual facts. that makes this a discussion, not an attack. wait, you did realize this is a discussion board, right?
May 10th, 2009 at 9:51 pm
Naples Fla: Once again what is your deal? Kim Picazio may not get paid as in donations but you bet she has gotten clients because of the press. When she goes on any show it is like a television commercial for her as a lawyer. Why exactly do you think she is on all these shows? Because she knows that women will see what she is doing and hire her to rip their husband a new one in court. You really can’t figure that out by yourself? That some people are using Haleigh here?
Nobody knows what happened to Haleigh. You are the one posting every chance you get that Ron Cumming’s is abusing his donations. Donations that can’t be abused because under Florida law he has to submit his bills to get help. Now you are saying it again and saying that Crystal is not abusing her donations. Crystal taking donations is abuse in itself.
Because Crystal did not have a job. She did not loose income because Haliegh went missing. So, she is not making up for a loss in income. She is just turning her child into income. What about all her new clothing? She looks like a different person and so does her mother. Ron looks the same.
Try to be a bit more fair. I have read your posts and been quiet for a very long time. Posts that are lies. Made to seem like the truth.

Yes ron very openly purchases 8 packs of beer at the welaka kangeroo,and the fruitland kangeroo,and not long ago he and misty were in the welaka kangeroo and along with beer and cigarettes bought $50.00 WORTH OF LOTTERY SCRATCH OFF TICKETS.YES AND SHE WENT IN SATURDAY AROUND NOON OR SO AND WAS OPENLY DRIVING THE PURPLE NISSAN,NO DRIVERS LICENSE.They dont mind breaking the law obviously.They were at the fair two nights in a row ,wearing sun glasses and hoodies ,who for christ sake would want a photo of those two.He was being driven around by his cousin jason squires and.no jr was not there.misty had to have all the fun.no one has to make up any thing that is not true ron makes himself look bad.the public doesnt have too.So to all you ronnie fans this is the bare ,hard truth.God bless all those who care about Haleigh and her being found

Once again the only fund set up for Ron Cumming’s was set up by Jamie Watts of Watts funeral home. It is for basic living expenses and Ron can’t use it to buy beer and lottery tickets. Thanks
May 11th, 2009 at 6:37 am
my heart aches, I support Crystal but no enough to make up some lies. Who cares if Ron buys beer. Why should I care? Maybe he wants to get Misty drunk and get some truth. Maybe he wants to win lotto and put up million for Haleigh to come home. Who cares? Please focus on Haleigh and not dummy stuff.
May 11th, 2009 at 6:39 am
And same for Crystal Llisa, if Crystal want to buy any shit she wants to she can. Not your problem. Long as she not driving on drugs or anything not your concern.
May 11th, 2009 at 8:52 am
The whole thing about Ron using donated money to buy beer and so forth came about when someone reported that he went into a store and took one of the collection jars out of the store or took money out of a collection jar at a store to get whatever.
This would not be money that would be in the account that Jamie Watts set up therefore there is no accountability for this money. Ron can spend it however he wants.
At least that is the way that I remember this all coming about. If I am wrong please correct me someone.
May 11th, 2009 at 10:59 am
Ya know i’m so fed up with everybody gettin’ fat pockets off Haleigh missing.Not just Ron,but KimP.claims to be probono,NOT SO because Jeff P is getting paid and you best believe a percentage of that cash goes to Kim.
Is there anybody not talking about money here?As for Cobra he needs to stop talking so much.Yes he wants to find Haleigh but,stop bad mouthing everybody that pisses you off.
Art you better not piss Cobra off or who knows what he might have to say about you.LOL/LMBO!!just kidding.
Alot of what Cobra vents about is opinion,and IMO petty!
I like Cobra,but if and i do mean if it’s 4 the right reason so what if Ron hasn’t bought gas or lunch.These are not your average people they don’t feel emotions the way a normal person would.Drugs suppress those feelings and cloud judgment.My point is it would be the right thing to do for Cobra(buy gas or lunch)but Ron and family is to be excused.IMO
I hope Haleigh is alive!!!But where ever she is Misty and Ron know more.
May 11th, 2009 at 12:57 pm
The focus HAS to be on Haleigh.
I don’t care what Ron/Crystal/Misty are doing/saying/spending, the truth has to be revealed.
Somebody out there has to know where she is???!!!
Please someone, anyone, that has any idea at all where she may be, please, please, please share the information. Any information at all, even if you think it’s nothing, just share what you know, get the info to someone that can let LE know.
Haleigh needs to be found, just bring her home safely and let her try and live her life as normally as possible.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:01 pm
I’m thinking of calling the National Enquirer,
…..they seem able to get the scoop on many things; I wonder if they offered enough $$$’s would some hot leads come to light?
May 11th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
llisa, while you seem to think that Ron, Misty and his family don’t have anything to do with Haleigh being missing. I have noticed that there are many persons posting here with very strong feelings for both parents. I have only posted my opinions and if Haleigh had gone missing from Crystals home I would be looking very hard at her and her household. As it happens Haleigh went missing from Ron’s home while under Mistys care. Now as far as people seeing Haleigh after Ron went to work… I didn’t think Haleigh was seen by anyone other than Ron’s family. Am I wrong? If so, who saw Haleigh after Ron went to work that is not related to Ron? Besides what I posted was nothing more than my opinion… that all. Misty has given conflicting accounts of what happened the night Haleigh went missing. This is way LE has not cleared Misty. All roads lead back to Misty and I just thought that she could be covering for someone else. Do I think Misty is capable of hurting Haleigh? Yes, she could have or she could be covering for someone. I just don’t see how Ron and his family can stand by Misty, unless they know something we dont know. Misty is just stupid enough to cover for someone else in exchange for Ron marrying her. I mean Ron didn’t marry Crystal or Amber and both have kids with him. Why, would Ron marry Misty? I think the timing tells it all. Just my opinion… that’s all.
Askedandanswered, sorry if I hit a nerve with my comment but I have heard it many times on TV by LE. As a standard rule LE must look very closely at the last person to see the missing child or person (for the most part that is a family member and/or parent or caregiver) and many times the last person to see the missing child or person is the one responsible for that happened to the missing child. It’s not as crazy as it sounds… its very logical.
Art, thank you again for keeping this thread fair, honest and balanced. I do enough all the different view points on this thread. I don’t know why some take comments so personal and attack the opinions of others. I welcome the exchange, keep it coming! Please people focus Haleigh is the one that all should be working to find and return to her loved ones.. I mean both camps… not just one or the other.
May 11th, 2009 at 7:19 pm
nikki, I agree and Kim Picazio will get clients from this. Because she helped Crystal give Ron a slap down. Women who are angry and want to get their man will be calling Kim and she won’t be working pro bono for them.
Cobra is making himself look bad. It almost seems like this is a big game and funny to him. To say he has her picture cause he feels like her dad and nobody else wants her is sickening. Promoting his videos several times. Claiming to be leaps and bounds ahead of LE in his investigation. Claiming he takes no side and is impartial yet bringing in a Lawyer that lied about a playground accident on national television. Then making it seem like Ron Lawyer ed up out of guilt. It is crazy.
Lynn-people say many things. Many people are posting on this site complete bull crap to make Ron look like shit. Ron did not put out jars to get money. I think if a store or business put jars out and Ron went right in and abused the money in the jar right in front of the owner of the business. The owner would simply stop collecting. This man has lost his daughter. He is the one that had custody and he clearly loved his daughter. I would not judge anyone in the months after such a loss. But many are quick to do so.
I just think if they are going to pick apart the father (and the mother is the one that got that ball rolling) the mother should not be exempt. She has been collecting, taking jars around to events, and she had no income to start with.
Cobra hanging out with Crystal at his hotel but claiming he take no sides.
I am waiting to hear about this car Cobra claims Ron purchased. If he traded one in or just got a new one.
He had a truck and a nissan. What new car?
Art, Cobra said that Donald Sapp was watching Haleigh play on a trampoline the day she went missing. Any confirmation on this? Has LE ruled him out? Does he have a monitoring device as you said they all do?
I want Haleigh to be found safe. I do not think the dad hurt his child. I think the 911 speaks for itself.
May 11th, 2009 at 9:34 pm
Noreen,I totally agree the entire focus is on what Ron’s getting and what he’s spending and what Crystal’s getting and what she’s spending NO doubt there are PRO RON and PRO CRYSTAL bloggers it always Ron bought beer,lottery tickets,well Crystal bought make-up and she owes back child support.WELL BIG DEAL for every negative thing said about Ron someone will counter back with one about Crystal! It really doesn’t matter bottom line is HALEIGH and if you choose not to donate to one parent or the other then by all means don’t donate.ITS YOUR CHOICE!!Let’s just have a all about HALEIGH DAY,when should we have it? I’m not being sarcastic because I too have chosen a side and it may not be the same as anyone else here but again it’s my opinion,it’s your opinion, we are all entitled to one but poor Haleigh is entitled to the truth someone has to find out the TRUTH about what went on the night she just vanished!!I pray that someone finds this out soon!It’s been TOO LONG!!! Art and Cobra God Bless and please keep searching for the truth and for Haleigh!Thank You Both!
May 11th, 2009 at 10:42 pm
I do not care if Ron or Crystal spend money. To much time fighting on this here. Much of it is lies because some people do not like Ron or hate him before this and now it is exuse to screw up Ron. Then people git mad and saw what bout Crystal and money she git. Tit for Tat. People nobody has got tons of money and would rather have baby girl back than any of this money. Sure Ron loose more money missing work than he got from you guys for his bills. Jars around in some places that is true for Crystal and Ron. But some people making up some crap and that is way not nice. If this entire town thought that Ron or Crystal is abuse money then no money go in jar to abuse-make sense crystal and ron not pefect ok? But Haleigh need her mommy and daddy. Haleigh do not need outside people make up stories about her mommy and daddy. Junior do not need this either guys.
May 11th, 2009 at 10:48 pm
i agree Cobra need to stop his opinion into fact he learn some of it on blogs and not even true and he had some folks on his side sort of but he goes and bad mouths crystal. he goes and hurts nay nay on the news. he talks to much in this press and need to take notes so he does not keep saying he is doing this and then oops he did the opposite thing that he said he would.
May 11th, 2009 at 10:56 pm
#120Noreen that’s a great idea,National Enquier.
as for this being about Haleigh,that it is.However what moms and pops are spending is very important,that could be the missin link.
WHAT PEOPLE DO FOR MONEEEEEY??!!!THE WORLD MAY NEVER KNOW.
I guess Cobra found out the hard way just how shady Crystal really is.Like the old saying goes A”LEAPORD DON’T CHANGE IT’S SPOTS.”Crystal and family are no better than the cummings for those children if she was wh now?Kim claimed on NG it was bcuz she had no money well GET A JOB!!!Well now she doesn’t need one thanks to poor little Haleigh going missing.Haleighbugg gots no buisness making Kim,and Crystal RICH and they are so money hungry they bitchin about $800.00 lousy bucks when Cobra is trying to help.I don’t have anymore respect for Crystal bcuz she’s too much for money and IMO she was fine with just getting her children on weekends or else she would have had Ron back in court b4 all this mess happend.Really the more i think about it they probably haven’t filed 4 custody bcuz in all honesty it’s just a ploy to get sympothy and more MONEY.How much has Crystal spent to aid in finding Haleigh?We all know what Ronald Cummings has spent his funds on and it ain’t finding Haleigh.
SO STOP RIDING COBRA’s JOCK,DON’T HATE PARTICIPATE!!!IT’S ABOUT HALEIGH SHE NEEDS ALL THIS OTHER CRAP ON THE BACK BURNER SO SHE CAN COME HOME ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.
May 11th, 2009 at 11:16 pm
rainy you are off your rocker. why do you think its ok for crystal to live off contributions made for a kid she never took care of? is she using those donations to catch up on her child support? helping take care of Jr? someone on another thread said they turned her contribution scam over to the irs and welfare. good for them. shes not the custodial parent. that would be like any one of us setting up a site collecting cash for haleigh and spending it. she gives about as much to her kids as the rest of us. actually not even that since her welfare comes from us.

thats funny my sisters name is sunny. i think Haleigh is gone and it is not good to just bash in mommy and daddy because mommy and daddy love haleigh. daddy lost job mommy want to stay close to search and sides that people tell crystal do this and that is a good idea come on crystal not make haleighbug all by herself make website get building people say this good idea crystal we do this and that my idea is that this is wrong to just pick apart mom and dad because you can, now cobra said bad things on crystal. it is hard for mom and dad and they love haleigh. i do not git why cobra says that nobody wants haleigh. this is mean. i do think cobra has good will but he needs to use his head and not hurt haleigh mommy
May 12th, 2009 at 7:30 am

#121 llisa you r so right Kim will benefit in more ways than we can count taking on a high profile case like this.However if any women had any sense they would run from her,I say that bcuz any lawyer that lies on national tv is not any good,and to be honest she didn’t even look convencing when she lied.Forreal IMO on NG Kim P. looked like a law student,a lying freshman law student,and Im on Crystals side more than I am Ron’s.Just giving MHO.
May 12th, 2009 at 10:13 pm
WHAT THE HECK IS THIS??WHY CAN’T WE ALL HAVE AN OPINION WITHOUT SOMEONE ELSE TRYING TO SET THE OTHER PERSON STRAIGHT.IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT IF IT WAS FACTS BEING QUESTIONED.ANYWAY CAN’T WAIT UNTIL ALL THIS IS ALL OVER.HALEIGH IF SHE IS STILL ALIVE HAS JUST BEEN THROUGH TOO MUCH FOR ANY PERSON TO ENDURE ESPEICALLY A 5YO CHILD.
May 12th, 2009 at 10:36 pm
Yes, I do not understand why the mother needs to collect money. It seems to be her main concern.
May 13th, 2009 at 2:14 am
nikki, I am not sure about all of that however it does seem that if Kim Picazio and Crystal really believed that Ron was beating the children bloody and throwing them down the stairs, they would have been in court to file an emergency motion for custody and a protective order. If they really believed it was the truth. Instead Junior has been left in the care of Ron for what two months since they started this mud slinging. Crystal saying she has not decided yet if she was going to court for custody. What is to decide if she believes what she has claimed?

May 9th, 2009 at 4:37 am
Naples, I read the post about the jars and I have no idea why you would believe a post. Ron Cumming’s did not set up an account for him and Junior at Bank of America. Only one was set up by Jamie Watts. You are mistaken. The website Find Haleigh now never took any kind of donations. You may be confused with a website called findhaleigh that someone set up early on. They tried to collect with paypal. Outrage followed and they changed it around and posted the account set up by Jamie Watts as well as Jamie Watts address for donations to Crystal and Ron. Ron could not have set up an account because under Florida law only one can exist and Jamie Watts set it up, he set it up very early. I am 100% positive or I would not be posting this. I am just tired of the lies. That is all. The truth would be nice, bald or not.
___________________________________________________________
According to this article, an account was set up at the Bank of America by Ron:
Haleigh’s father and brother have set up a fund at Bank of America, collecting donations for the family. But now some sites have popped up on the Web claiming to be collecting money for the 5-year-old and her relatives. (snipped)
People who want to donate to the fund should write a check to the Haleigh Cummings Family Relief Fund and submit it at any Bank of America branch. (snipped)

Rainy #123, #124-I appreciate your comments. Do you live in Satsuma or nearby? Do you know these people?? I haven’t reread the comments in awhile, so I don’t know if you said whether you do or don’t. Thank you.
May 13th, 2009 at 7:50 pm
Rainy, I think so also as far as Cobra and the Internet. Because I spend much time on the Internet on this case. I read something and then Cobra makes the same claim. Unless he is putting it on the Internet. I guess nothing is really wrong with that as long as what he says is true. Because he has some real respect from the public (some) and they believe what he claims. So when he reads on the Internet that Ron got a car with donation money and then he says so in an interview, I want to know has he confirmed that? Is he sure? Because I really think some of this he says is not the truth. Not that he is lying but that is his opinion. Either that or it is not even his opinion but he is trying to put pressure on Ron.
May 13th, 2009 at 7:52 pm
Many children have gone missing and the parents were blammed and it turned out the parents were not involved. I can’t imagine what it must be like to loose a child this way and then get blammed for it.
May 14th, 2009 at 11:30 am
Checkitout- the account was set up by Jamie Watts, for Ron.
This is the only account and the article is talking about the same account, the one set up by Watts. It is for Ron but Jamie Watts set it up. This is easily confirmed. This account, in this article, at Bank of America was set up by Jamie Watts.

Llisa please put your mind at ease now that Crystal is not scamming money to pay child support and buy makeup and clothes if you want the truth go to http://www.thesky973.com/pages/4014463.php interview with KP papers were filed to make it NON-Profit Haleighbug Foundation, now maybe we can see a link to where Ron’s fund is NON-Profit why do you feel it is right for either parent to profit from this? If you listen to the interview money goes towards finding Haleigh sending fliers all over the US sending fliers and making calls to Drs. and hospitals to post fliers,trying to get the word all over the country about Haleigh and keep her face ALIVE, to me that is a GREAT idea and shows she’s searching for her daughter and not just sitting back doing nothing wonder if Ron and family will be at the HOPE vigil on May 17th,Crystal,Marie and KP will be there and Marie is going to speak to me this speaks volumes but that is my opinion you have yours.

Scorpio, Rainy go to post #593 on Daddy’s Girl Got Attitude blog.

rainy,
I have a few questions to ask..
First, I do understand that you wish to be very protective of Crystal. But, why would you want to throw her Dad aka Marty to the dogs? I am under the impression that she and her father are very very close, and he would walk through fire for her. Or, unless you might be an ex..
You bash Cobra pretty good, but its all over Money.. A topic of conversation you apparently are privy to, that the outsider’s wouldn’t be.
And last, but most important what is this game your playing with your grammer. I have read through all of your post, and you seem to waver between a very illiterate person who does not know proper grammer to very accurate grammer, and sentences that are perfect. Rather confusing isn’t it to try to post in two worlds.
One other little question, where would you have learned that ron’s housekey would be on the key ring of the van, or is this your assumption?? That info has never been released to my knowledge.. That would have to come from inside the cummings family..

Checkitout- The Haleigh Cumming’s relief fund was set up by Jamie Watts of Watts funeral home for Ron and Junior. The person who wrote the article just got it wrong. Some people think it was set up to bury Haleigh in case she is found dead. But Ron Cumming’s never set up any account and his website does not ask for money.

The Truth
Will set
you Free Haleigh.
Love Shamby.

Common Sense says Ron or Misty is involved…There’s no way that child could go missing sleeping 2 feet away from the girlfriend and she knows nothing. I dont even think it happened the night of the 911 call…They need to get some professionals that knows what the hell they’re doing down there in Florida,,,,Geeesh
May 15th, 2009 at 10:04 pm
The system failed that girl….Florida is completely backwards and Ron is a known druggie, most likely made a deal with the police,,,,,Isnt there another case involving the killing of a girl who was working as an informant there in Florida???
May 16th, 2009 at 2:28 pm
So Chloe’s father is also her step-uncle? Oh Boy!!! Are they all related down there?
May 16th, 2009 at 4:46 pm
#149–you are correct. I believe it happened in Tallahassee. I may be mistaken but I think that the PD that used her or the FDLE is being held accountable for using this poor girl and throwing her to the wolves without adequate protection.

Driving the purple nissan.Art,I saw Misty with my own eyes last saturday the 9 of may.A clerk that I know very well at the Welaka Kangeroo told me about the lottery tickets,beer and smokes.He was a little shocked ,but who can figure the stupid things people do.As for the fair they were seen by two young people who have have no reason to lie.They just wondered why little jr, was not there to have some fun. No they said nothing about any money that Ron spent,as a matter of fact they tried to avoid being in the same proxcemity as Ron .They did describe Ron and Misty as dressed in jeans,dark glasses and wearing hoodie jackets pulled over their heads.

Thank you Rainy, it took a few days to get back here. I appreciate your posts, you have good thoughts. Cobra stirs things up and isn’t always nice about it or fair. A lot of people do want to eat mommy and daddy for lunch. You know some people, could be hard on you I don’t know. Take care of yourself.

Lunn #117 – that is what I remember Ron and Misty doing with the donation jars around town also. Had a relative do the same thing. Every morning she would make her rounds to collect “her” money. The family paid for the funeral, she spent the money on her own needs (beer, cigs. etc). No accountability.
I read that Ron went to Crystals tent and took the money she had in a collection jar there and declared it “HIS” money. Geez!
Generally I do not have a problem with these families receiving money for cost of living expenses while looking for a lost loved one, but it should be held an account and drawn on with some monitoring to avoid abuse. (i.e. a check made out to the mortage/rental company, reimbursement for groceries, gas, etc). It would certainly put to rest these rumors/abuse of heartfelt donations.
Haleighbug foundation has legitimate expenses as well as Crystal needing money to feed herself and her baby when she is there. Ron needs money for food if he is not receiving food stamps during his off work time, as well as clothing, etc for Jr. Those types of things are needed expenses.
May 18th, 2009 at 6:32 pm
One more thing – I personally do not want my donation to go for beer, cigs and tatoos nor fun rides for a trip to the fair!
May 18th, 2009 at 11:14 pm
To Rainy, my own post #153-Meant to type, ‘you posted you know some of the people, could be hard on you living there’.
Rainy, you may be one of the people that are in a position to help. Some of your posts sound like teasers. People are touchy about the case. Melissa said some good things about contacting someone like Art if that makes sense.

Noni Says: I read that Ron went to Crystals tent and took the money she had in a collection jar there and declared it “HIS” money. Geez!
Noni, this has not been confirmed, and has only been reported on blogs with no corroboration from any viable source.

my heart aches Says: As for the fair they were seen by two young people who have have no reason to lie.They just wondered why little jr, was not there to have some fun.
Is it possible Jr. was being walked around by g-ma and other family members at that particular moment these “young people” saw Ron & Misty? Playing some kiddie games? Grabbing a hot dog with grandma? Or should we automatically assume he was left completely out of all the fun? He may HAVE been left home, ESPECIALLY since it was March and cold, but do we know that well enough to report he was left out completely?

148 new yorker, when could she have went missing then? we know Haleigh was in school that day and seen by many afterwards.
May 19th, 2009 at 10:31 pm
One question of all posters here. The Pow-wow between Ron and the LE task force (with his lawyer) has not appeared to have happened.
My question is Ron and Misty beng cooperative? Does anyone percieve deception and a defensive posture.
Does any discussion and speculation count if LE continues to point at Misty and Ron whom are hiding behind lawyers. Let the excuses begin.
May 20th, 2009 at 10:24 pm
Does ANYONE know who Misty’s attorney is???
Thanks.

2Spunky#i59,These young people did not follow them to try to see what they were spending,and did not care.They just were wondering why little jr was not included .No they had one other person with them and that is the truth.Ron and Misty all lovey dovey ,this would of been a chance for some bonding with jr .The trip to the fair should of been planned especially with jr in mind.Just very sad.
