Misty Croslin: “I Want Out of Here!”
First videotape of Misty Croslin Behind Bars
From Bald Truth Staff, (c) www.artharris.com, all rights reserved
Here’s Art Harris’s guest appearance on The Nancy Grace Show Wed. night, hours after law enforcement in Florida released its first batch of jailhouse videotapes of accused drug traffickers Misty Croslin, the babysitter who reported five year old Haleigh Cummings missing. Who needs detectives with Croslin blabbing about her role to her parents?
We’re working on putting up audio as soon as we can get it edited, along with a few transcripts of the face to face meetings.

I loved the one where she says to Timmy that she went to pick up the drugs (did not have them herself) and says not like the weed….know what I mean.
Timmy it is not like when we sell weed and have tons of it lying around. This is different.

Art, I just posted a comment..It rejected it saying, “you failed to pass spam checking”..What’s up with that? TIA
February 6th, 2010 at 4:12 am
Never mind, it went through.. Now I forgot what I said in that very interesting post…lol I’ll post later..

Well who can blame her,SHE ISN’T GUILTY!!!!!!
If she knew she would have already told!!!
I am more curious now as to why Crystal didn’t care to fail a drug test knowing she’ll be watched closely for awhile since she JUST got custody back?

It’s obvious that Misty is so childlike, the way Teflon Ron likes them, because she doesn’t have a clue about keeping her mouth shut, it so apparent from these jail house videos. How the hell does anyone think she could be diabolical enough to keep an even bigger secret, like where Haliegh is at??
I don’t get it, why are the detectives going after Misty and her family like bats out of hell and nothing when it comes to Teflon Ron, when he brought all these slimey drug/pimp characters into Haliegh’s life!
The only reason I can see for going after Misty so hard, is that the detectives believe the only secret she would keep, would be one that had Teflon Ron is at the center!!
Teflon Ron’s GrandMa tells him to shut up because “Pops” (who ever he is) says to tell Telfon Ron that “they put a snitch in there with him”?? And nobody thinks that’s weird?? But any little morsel that stirs around Misty is big, big news?? Get real Mizz Nancy, your boy Ron is one ugly person and everybody seems to look the other way when it comes to Teflon Ron and his family! I say arrest a few people in Teflon Ron’s family too! Who is the guy Teflon Ron’s gramdmother keeps mentioning Jeff Hardy or Harding, I think that was his name, he says this and he says that?? Is he a Sheriff and a friend of Teresa N.’s, things that make you go hmmmm??
February 6th, 2010 at 2:08 pm
Jeff Hardy, Oh okay, Grannie is referring to Sheriff Jeff Hardy with the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office. Got it. He’s still prob. a friend of Teresa N.
February 6th, 2010 at 2:13 pm
When MaMa works for the Sheriff’s office, but hey let’s go after the 18 year old girl that didn’t even have an arrest until she met up with Teflon Ron! Why wouldn’t you be tearing about a known criminal’s life as hard as you are tearing apart an 18 year old girl’s life and her family, who by the way has nothing, when really Teflon Ron the ADULT was responsible for little Haliegh’s welfare??
Just a few dropped charges for Teflon Ron and I am sure there are more!

It is cute that people think GraveDigger on a truck means something but it is like a little cartoon, a comic book, toys are made of the gravedigger trucks, and I mean I have seen teenagers with shirts on Gravedigger. Plus R.C drove a truck and that is probably what that means.
Confirmed: Haleigh’s Mom Failed Drug Test, Keeps Child
Art, have you checked up on this story?
February 6th, 2010 at 10:01 pm
I am sure they all want out of there. ” They won’t let me do nothing”. Well that is what breaking the law gets you. NO FREEDOM!! I do feel sad as I sit and watch their family fall apart. They are a family with many dysfunctions, but one thing you can see is they really do love one another.
I am wondering what messages from Rons jail house interview was for Misty? She mentions them in one of her phone calls.
Does anyone know if you are allowed to smoke in jail? If not, between not being able to smoke and coming off the pills it is no wonder she feels she is starving.
Ron just sounds like he is right at home.
Art I have a question. Did Crystal Sheffield receive full custody or temporary custody? I read she got full custody in the newspaper, but others are saying only temp. Which is true? Thank you and GODS SPEED

Art,
Just want to say what a great job you are doing on keeping up with the Haleigh case. Too bad Nancy can’t realize not everyone in Satsuma Fl are as ignorant as she likes to portray.It’s a shame that for the longest both Misty and Ronald have gotten away with so many things, but fortunately things are starting to come to a head.Instead of Nancy coming down on you for calling these people by the first names, she should give you a HUGE pat on the back for getting them to trust you,as well as if she had any desency about herself, she would look at her old transcripts and see what a huge ass she looks like for sticking up for Ronald Cummings and now she wants to come down on him, did she finally see the light for the true scum these two really are.It;s a shame she didn’t listen to us “dumb REDNECKS” a while ago. Maybe she should leave you to the real journalism, she might actually be able to keep the same opinion a year later as you have. Keep up the good work, it’s good to know, there really are a few good men left in reporting.

Steph, Jerry:
Without gutsy citizens like you both, supporting and vouching for the truth, it wouldn’t be happening now. Thank you for your support and trust. Art

More than likely they were listening to some ‘dirty RAP.’
Like Snoop Doggy…
I found a tape (old-fashioned) disc CD…’medium’ across the street on a wall once-upon-a-time after I called the cops on a bunch of near-grown up kids ‘hanging’ out after 2am…I’d finally had my fill.
Anyway after all was quiet and I finally got my child to sleep (she was scared but Mommy was fearless) I went over they and found that ‘present’ they’d left…the CD ‘medium.’
Most disgusting lyrics I’d ever heard…yet the vocals were real good.
Guess that’s what some consider ‘Art’ these days.

“Why is Ron and family so worried about snitches”
________________________________________________
I found this quite interesting that Teflon Ron (as someone nicely put it) is being warned about snitches cops may have put in with him. Surely the whole family knows cop’s have the drug deal’s on tape so there is nothing to snitch about there soooo i can’t help but feel Ron’s GGMa is talking about HaLeigh.
As for Misty i do think she’s scared of Ron & thats why she’s not telling everything she knows. I have a hard time thinking Misty killed Haleigh in anger but with Ron’s temper i can see him lashing out & HaLeight getting hurt real bad. i do think it’s very possible maybe lil HaLeigh ingested some drug & died with the possibility of it occurring before Ron even went to work that night.
I hope someone can reach Misty & convince her that if she didn’t lift a hand to hurt HaLeigh but knows what happened to do the right thing & tell what she knows. Her family needs to keep the pressure on her & work with cops to ensure to Misty that Ron can’t make good on his threats to kill anyone as he’ll be in prison a long time. I can see Ron convincing an immature Misty that she can’t tell what happened coz she’s in it as deep as he is & that they must protect eachother because “it was an accident”. If thats what happened i could & i bet other’s could easily forgive her part in the yearlong coverup.

I really hope that Leonard Pedilla (the guy who bailed casey anthony out of jail) minds his own business and stays out of this case. Misty, Ron and everyone else who was arrested need to stay behind bars. I don’t understand what makes him think that he will be able to get information from Misty about finding Haleigh. Really??? Because it didn’t work in the Anthony case. I think he loves to be in front of the camera’s. There are plenty of other cases he can get himself involved with. Let law enforcement handle this one. I honestly believe that Leonard loves to be in front of the camera’s. He really needs to stop getting involved in these cases that have nothing to do with him. What makes him think that any of these people would talk to him? If they were to talk to anyone, it would probably be Art Harris… They probably would say that they would talk to Leonard ONLY if he bails them out and then once they are out they won’t talk to him, just like casey anthony.
It’s sad that it is almost a year since this little girl went missing. Misty already out of jail bad, she’ll crack soon.
I that is was interesting when the Judge asked Misty how she supported herself and she said by her parents. From what I can tell, her parents don’t even have two pennies to rub together. The other thing was when she is talking to her brother Timmy and she saying to get money from his wife’s family and then says that she will pay the money back. How is she going to pay the money back? She doesn’t have a job and her parents have no money, how on earth would she pay them back? Maybe she can sell more drugs. That seems like how she is making a living. Maybe, she should consider getting a REAL job. Then again, she probably is going to be in jail for a very long time.

HOW DOES RONALD GET BY WITH SO MUCH? WHY DOES NANCY GRACE TRUST HIM SO? IT’S GONNA BE A BAD THING IF HE IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS TOO….. {WITH HALEIGH} THE WHOLE HEE HAW BUNCH MAKE ME NAUSEAS. I ALSO RECALL RONALD BASICALLY THREW GERALDO OFF HIS PROPERTY WHEN GERALDO QUESTIONED HIS RECORD? JUST READING WHAT IS WRITTEN.
February 9th, 2010 at 7:11 pm
I also have to wonder if Nancy Grace is feeling like a huge azz yet. The way she always coddled Ronald Cummings. In interviews she always took it much easier on him, then she did with anyone else in little Haleigh’s life. She kept trying to portray him as the grieving daddy…with all of his crazy stunts since Haleigh’s “disappearance” he certainly hasn’t seemed very “grieving” ! Now with these drug charges,and the stories coming out about how abusive and controlling he has been of his ex’s…The TRUE Ronald…HAs Nancy G finally come to her senses and taken off her rose colored glasses when it comes to Ronald?
February 10th, 2010 at 12:54 am
Art, Who is Jeff Hardy?? Grandma talks like they know him real well. Why did Ronald get transferred to another jail? Is he getting special treatment as I suspect he always has (because his mother works in LE? Ronald doesn’t seem to be worried about a thing. I have aways believed he is involved in Haleigh’s disappearance. I think he knows who took her and why and that he has Misty too afraid to say anything.
February 11th, 2010 at 7:15 am
I’m pretty sure I ‘typed’ that same old RAP last year, or the year before. If not, then the year before that.
Hope you slept well, I did!

The draconian drug laws in Florida and the rest of USA need to be abolished. Oxycodone! Big deal It’s a light weight phamaceutical drug. Has Florida turned into Havana! What the hell is going on. Misty and Ron Cummings are not Noriega. The media knows Zippo! They are legalizing pot all over the usa and next is percocet. What kind of country do I live in. This is communism! Repoters who have never ever taken a percocet in their life (so they say) are a joke. Nancy Grace is a beautiful mother but She’s worse than any good ole boy system that ever hit the planet. You charge someone with murder, you do not set them up to solve a crime. This is a violation of civil rights. Misty and Ron are both victims of southern injustice/Florida style. Where are the suppliers? No arrests,why not? Innocent until proven guily does not exist in this country for poor people and it never has! Enough is enough. Get out in the real world and quit playing the blame game. Michael Jackson took those drugs on his own and they want to crucify the doctor and the same with Anna Nicole. Oh because you are a celebrity, it’s always some one else’s fault. We live in a sick control freak world. I am so happy I do not live in the south around the most frighting freaky people in the universe. Nothing has changed,just the dynamics.Lock em up and throw away the key. What happened to compassion and love and simple justice. What the hell is going on?
