I think the people searching for Haleigh should be checking the local landfills, thick wooded areas, streams, and vacant, abandoned houses. I say the woods for any sign of a shallow grave (Caylee Anthony) and vacant abandoned houses (Somer Thompson) because that may be where her body could have been hidden. I hope she is not found in any one of the above. Also, in the one particular video clip of Misty, it shows her walking with another girl about her age with a 2-3 yr. old. Why not find that girl and ask her if Misty has told her anything about Haleigh? She may know something that could have solved this months ago.
Suzie LA October 27th, 2009 3:51 pm ET
Misty mentioned that she was supposed to be hypnotized. Are the police considering doing this? Maybe if they put her under and gave her truth serum they might find out what happened to Haleigh. I don't think she is going to crack just like Casey Anthony still has not cracked over a year later.
Jamey October 27th, 2009 3:59 pm ET
I don't beleive that Misty Croslin got rid of Hayleigh by herself. She just insn't intelligent enough to be that creative. I beleive someone she was at the party with helped her. SHe's just too dumb.
Suzie LA October 27th, 2009 4:05 pm ET
Renee: I read your comment. Does your psychic friend know what happened to Caylee Anthony? Maybe you could ask him and put that on here too. Then let the police, FBI, and Nancy Grace know about that too. I have watched and read about that case since Caylee went missing. I really think that whole family knows what happened to her especially Casey and her brother. It is going to take alot to get Casey to crack. If you find out anything, please post it on this site. Thanks.
LynNnc October 27th, 2009 4:16 pm ET
I think they need to check under that mobile home, that baby is somewhere and needs to be found ,
LIS October 27th, 2009 4:20 pm ET
Casey Anthony and Misty Croslin= murderers
Carol October 27th, 2009 4:41 pm ET
Misty sounds more upset in the robbery police tape then when the little girl went missing. Hummmm! Her arm hurt so bd so she could score some more pain pills in the hospital
Michelle Pierson October 27th, 2009 4:48 pm ET
As a recovering addict ,I have thought from the beginning that Misty was gone partying that night and came home right before Ron. OxyContin is not something you do once in a while or even moderately. I also felt Misty was still using, she didn't just quit after Haleigh disappeared. It's not a drug you simply stop and recent events have shown that she was still pursuing this drug. I also never believed that Haleigh ingested, accidentally or otherwise, any of these pills. OC's are very expensive and you don't give them away or lose track of them. I think Misty Croslin is a very scared little girl who is caught up in her lies and can't see anyway out. Addiction is a very selfish disease and all she cares about is saving her face and her butt at the same time. The police need to lock her up for a few days and let her withdrawl in a jail cell. She'll start to remember things she didn't even know she forgot.
Robert m October 27th, 2009 4:49 pm ET
They need to check the conventient marts and stores near to the trailor, and see who was in and out of them that night .The vidio may still be there on tapes if it were long term.They are all chain smokers and they need cigs,so she probably went to one of those stores nearby that night,They could tell if she was with someone or had the girl with her and gets some idea of time. Also the electric company would have an extra kilowatt or two gone on, if the lights were on in the trailor during a druggie parties.I think when this girl called 911, she had spent hours covering tracks.The key is to get her arrested and give her the cia treatment.My god what are the waiting on, they have had her twice on offensive behaviors.
Leigh October 27th, 2009 5:02 pm ET
I think Misty's family knows more than what they are saying. I also believe that if she failed the Lie detector test why is she still walking the streets a free person she should be locked up with the rest of the child killers. Her mother had all this information about what really happened to this little girl wjy hasnt any of it been told yet and why does Misty get to keep leaving the state when she is a suspected murderer????? Keep digging in Misty or you will never find that poor little girl she knows exactly where she is at just like Casey Anthony did.
Tiffany October 27th, 2009 5:11 pm ET
OK people are saying that she wasnt home and that haleigh was with her ok then if her brother went there The little boy was where if homehe would have woke up. and if somen stole her why not both of them?
sonya October 27th, 2009 6:02 pm ET
I strongly believe Lori made an excellent suggestion to pull samples of the kids hair to check for drugs. This is the possible break that is needed to resolve this case! LORI YOU SHOULD THINK ABOUT BEING A DETECTIVE!
Lin Hirsch October 27th, 2009 6:34 pm ET
If Misty was gone for days before the night Haliegh disappeared, suposedly on a drug binge, Ronald Cummings was negligent in leaving his children with a 17 year old, who obviously was not capable of taking care of her self let alone 2 children.
THere is something wrong with this whole situation, no one seems to be incontrol of them selves. So sad that children are born into "families" like this. I am sure the grandparents hearts are broken, but the people who were supposed to be taking care of this little girl were at the least negligent.
cedrone October 27th, 2009 6:43 pm ET
I don't understand why Misty hasn't been pushed harder to tell the truth? It's like they're wearing kid gloves with her. I don't mean a physical push, but more interogrations to wear her down.
Something isn't right with her story or stories since the night this happened. It just seems if she were instead a MISTER instead of a Misty they might be harder on a young man.
But maybe they're hoping by giving her such slack that if she is guilty, even if only as an accomplice that she will slip & convict herself.
Now she gets caught in drug buy gone wrong and they're letting her leave?
joann October 27th, 2009 6:44 pm ET
Misty should be right beside Cindy in jail PLEASE !!!!!!!!!
Mrs. K October 27th, 2009 6:58 pm ET
What I don't understand is how an uneducated, 18 year old girl, who has FAILED lie detector tests get away with such a horrible crime in this country!?! Everybody knows she was involved, and at some point I believe she will crack. Whether it be now or much much later, she will eventually tell somebody the truth She has played the police, the media, her family, and everybody in God's creation. This entire case ticks me off!! Why haven't they found this precious little baby?? I really don't understand how something like this could happen. I pray that this little girl is found alive, and in the meantime I pray that God has his hands of protection over her until she finds her way home!
Bailey October 27th, 2009 7:12 pm ET
i think that misty could be innocent, i mean every one is automatically jumping on her case and *assuming that she has something to do with this little angel going missing. yes, it is fishy that she has has several incosistencys with her story, but i think that the cops should look into her bio-mother some more. i just feel liike she is hiding something. (dont be mad nancy! i love your show i watch it every night1)
EILEEN October 27th, 2009 7:15 pm ET
Where is Misty ?
She is not married any longer and as i seem to see it she is still a minor who's mother is in jail. shouldn't she be in child protective
services.? Why isn't she in school? Who does she fly to all these tv appearances with? who is her guardian right now? Anyone know? So many questions do few answers!
JB October 27th, 2009 7:30 pm ET
First: What the Hell is going on in Florida?
It seems that at least half or more of the stories we hear on NG comes out of Florida, whether it's missing kids, missing moms, murdered families, babies tossed out of car windows, etc... Most in Florida. When i hear a new story, i immediately think "I bet its in Florida" and i am usually right.
Second: Everytime one of you posts about this Haleigh case and you say you "hope that little girl is found alive" or "hope they find what happened to that little girl", it reminds me of Misty because she usually refers to Haleigh as "that little girl"... it's creepy and distant and it creeps me out that you guys use that term so much. I checked and it's used 25 times in all the comments so far. At least say "that darling girl" or "that precious girl" but "little girl" is soooooo Misty. Yuck.
Third: Kill the Killers!
Inside Source October 27th, 2009 7:57 pm ET
MarlaLouise: I know A LOT more. But if and when I post it, it is NOT being posted. I have first hand knowledge. Go to

Michelle Pierson October 27th, 2009 8:07 pm ET
What really makes me sick is how Haleigh's birth mother didn't know anything about this girls life! Then her father just leaves her with a drug addict who had been gone for days. this poor girl never stood a chance- i hope her brother is removed from the home and given a chance at a normal life. The only one who seems to have any sense is Ronalds mother, she has shown real emotion. The saddest part is that children live like this all over this country and nothing is done about it- how many Haleighs are there that we don't hear about?
Cassie October 27th, 2009 9:13 pm ET
I watch you all the time and I think that it is sad that so many children are coming up missing in Florida. I send my wishes for Haleigh and hope they find her and I send more wishes out to the family.
shari October 27th, 2009 9:35 pm ET
i just wanna say nancy and her team are doing SUCH a job good. i couldn't be on tv everyday talking about missing kids/adults . that must really take a tow out of you . i see in your eyes that u just wanna just cry. you have a tough job but your doing great !!!!
please people dont give up on Haleigh. look for drug dealers. maybe they know something , MAYBE THEY HAVE HER
Misty did say that she was to young to take care of 2 kids and i agree with her . so i hope these older men who have kids recognize that . dont date a teen if u have kids. a teenager brain is still maturing . shes so young and i wish to GOD that she NEVER got involved with Ron . i really dont think she was jealous of Haleigh , i really think its all about drugs and does or did Ron also do drugs??? you have to pay those dealers because if u dont bad things will happen ! AND BY THE WAY GET THESE DAMN DEALERS OFF THE STREET. THEY ARE ONLY KILLING PEOPLE BY GIVING THEM DRUGS
MISTY HAS TO BE GOING CRAZY , THATS IF SHE HAS A HEART INSIDE HER BODY , HATE TO SAY THIS BUT I KIND OF FEEL FOR HER . ONLY BECAUSE THE WAY SHE WAS RAISED . SHE DID HAVE IT HARD GROWING UP BUT TELL US SOMETHING MISTY . YOU CANT LIVE THE REST OF YOUR LIFE WITH THIS ON YOUR BRAIN. YOU NEED TO FREE YOURSELF.
WHEN SHE CALLED 911 IT SEEMED LIKE SHE WAS MORE WORRIED ABOUT HER POCKETBOOK GETTING RIPPED . IT MUST OF BEEN AN EXPENSIVE ONE BECAUSE SHE WAS GETTING PAID TO BE ON SHOWS BUT I WAS ALSO GLAD SHE WAS SO THE WHOLE WORLD COULD SEE THIS GIRL AND HEAR HER MERRY GO ROUND STORY. WHATS GOING ON WITH THE REAL MOM? DOES SHE EVEN CARE?
THANK YOU
Carol October 27th, 2009 10:15 pm ET
This is the first time I ever made a comment on anything here on the board. However....I have read a few of the previous postings about this topic, and I agree we are all on the right track; I don't believe Haley will ever come home alive. That is one terrible shame. No matter what happened, or what the situation was, it will not change anything. Drugs kill families. It is very possible that Haley got ahold of Oxycontin or even something else. If you are high and "trying" to watch children, its kin to being on the road drunk. Your judgement is the first to go. I lost my daughter in Florida in 2007 as she was riding in the car with a friend who had been drinking and doing drugs the night before with very little sleep. Nothing happened to that girl, she was not injured, and didnt even get a breathing test or anything. She is still walking around doing her drugs and partying even though she seen my daughter fly out the windshield while the car flipped over three times. And she had to look down at my dead daughter who was her "friend", and she also had to remove my grandaughter from her car seat. Thank God she wasn't hurt. SO....my opinion is....we will see many more of these situations and others that are similiar because of drug abuse. Anyone who disagrees has to be doing drugs themselves. No, I don't believe Haley was sold as one poster mentioned. But I have a strong feeling about the "accidental death" theory. God bless the grandmother, she loves that baby, and she is in denial and really is going to need some help if and when Haley's body is ever found. The grandparents suffer a hell of a lot over things that the parents of the children in this world are doing now a days.
TINA: OHIO October 27th, 2009 10:28 pm ET
HAS IT EVER BEEN DISCUSSED ABOUT WHAT HALEIGHS' LITTLE BROTHER "JUNIOR" HAS SAID WHAT MAY HAVE HAPPENED? DOES HE SAY THEY WERE SOMEWHERE ELSE THAT NIGHT?
t parchment October 27th, 2009 10:49 pm ET
It makes me sick to know that someone out there has information about Haleigh, and isn't coming forward. You could even do it anonymously if you're feeling guilty. Haleigh doesn't deserve whatever you have put her through and/or are currently putting her through. She is just a little girl. It's amazing that we have so much technology today, and yet...we can't find her?
To whoever has info on Haleigh: You need to find a way to come forward so Haleigh can go home to her family (one way or another).
Also, doesn't it rain alot there? I haven't heard if anyone checked for suspicious tire tracks or footprints around the Cummings home. Just curious.
Carole October 28th, 2009 1:28 am ET
I am curious who notified the natural mother, what time was she notified, her re-action, statements made at that time of who she felt might have done such a thing. Were there concerns from the natural mother before this of Misty being with her children?
Claire October 28th, 2009 1:45 am ET
Nothing adds up in this case. I don't believe that a 17 year old, even a very resourceful, sophisticated and intelligent one, would be able to cover up a child's disappearance and/or murder and keep law enforcement at bay for months on end. Misty just isn't very bright –but she hasn't been arrested yet and no-one in her circle of drug-using friends has opened their mouth either to incriminate her. So what's the deal?? Either law enforcement know much more than they're letting on and are slowly building their case or something else is going on, I have no idea what. Usually I get some kind of a hunch regarding someone's guilt either way–but on this case I'm stumped. The father seems genuinely remorseful but he isn't the most upstanding guy in the world. What was he doing with a 17 year old girl anyway?? And, again, Misty comes across as your classic "at-risk" youth–growing up too fast, using drugs, uneducated, etc., but not exactly a monster either. I'm not buying the Casey Anthony comparisons, people. Maybe something happened that was a tragic accident but for Heaven's Sake come clean, people. The little girl deserves some peace.
nannymargaret October 28th, 2009 3:03 am ET
Poor wee Haleigh, Dad Ron is constantly in denial. Misty is shifty! The U.S. is very slow moving in their investigations, and very wimpy at attemps to find the truth. I'm so glad I'm not a U.S. Citizen, a country totally out of control – unsolved murders, rapes, child abuse, abuse against women, little or no gun control. There seems to be a tremendous lack of conscience abounding. GOD HELP AMERICA!
Raquel Quigg October 28th, 2009 9:08 am ET
Did the cops ever think to check landfills where the Cummings trash would have been dumped?I watch your show every night and feel sorry for little Haleigh.The stepmom Misty looks like she's not to stable herself.I hope for everyone involved with what happened to Haleigh never get a good night sleep until she is returned home to her family.
Mo October 28th, 2009 9:18 am ET
****Hello, has Jr.(the baby brother) said that when he saw the man in black take his "sissy" did he say that Misty was home. I know he's a baby but maybe if the b***ch was home . Little Jr. maybe would have woken up scared or startled and Misty would have saw this person. It's a shame that she has Casey Anthony's example to follow by keeping silent. she's a copy cat and if Casey gets off maybe Misty will think she can too.
Wayne October 28th, 2009 10:03 am ET
Misty says she saw the outside back door propped open when she got up, but according to your CNN reporter the inside door closes automatically. So how could she see the outside door was propped open? Also when this story was first televised, Ron had a bandage on the back of his neck. What caused this?
JB October 28th, 2009 10:21 am ET
After reviewing all the information, I'm not so sure that Misty had anything to do with Haleighs' disappearance. I'm throwing another idea out there....could it be that Haleighs' biological mother or a relative had taken the little girl as, if I remember correctly, the bio Mom accused Cummings with abuse on the children? Perhaps she arranged, with Mistys' consent or knowledge, to abduct Haleigh and that's why Misty mentioned on TV interview to look at the 'other side'?
MICHELLE October 28th, 2009 11:31 am ET
I FEEL AND THINK THAT SHE IS ALIVE SOMEWHERE THERE IS HOPE STILL I THINK THEY SHOULD PUT UP BILLBOARDS OF HER ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES. MISTY KNOWS WHAT HAPPEND TO THIS POOR LITTLE GIRL SHE KNOWS. I THINK ALL ALONG THAT SHE WAS JELIOUS OF HER CAUSE HER DAD LOVED HER SO MUCH AND THAT MISTY WANTED HIS ATTN. MISTY IS LIAR . SHE'S ALREADY HAS GONE SO FAR INTO HER LYING SHE'S THINKING IT'S THE TRUTH BUT WHAT'S REAL IS THAT SHE KNOWS WHAT REALLY HAPPEND. I BELIEVE WITH ALL MY HEART THAT SHE'S STILL ALIVE HOPEFULLY SHE WILL BE FOUND SAFE. MAY GOD BE BY HER SIDE AND HELP THIS FAMILY FIND PEACE. MISTY MY DARLING YOU WILL PAY YOU CAN'T EXCAPE GOD'S EYES!
Ginger October 28th, 2009 12:13 pm ET
I am sitting here at work and praying for the safe return of Haylie. You guys have her dead and buried and Misty hung for her murder.
If Misty is innocent of any crime in connection to Haylies disappearance all this time and energy trying to figure out what is in this teenagers mind has been a waste. She may know absolutely nothing and is reacting the way she is because she feels everyone hates her ans blames her for something beyond her control.
No one has ever mentioned, not once, the word "love" when it came to her marriage to Ronald. Ask yourselves how you would act (on camera) at age 17 if this were you in Misty's position. Then add the dysfunctional upbringing, (lack of) education level, siblings that are criminals, drug experimentation (at the very least), having a controlling boyfriend/husband, informants lurking around, people judging you because you used the wrong bathroom in the middle of the night (I would have too, by the way, so as to not wake the children with the light, sound of the flush or running water, but that's besides the point), then put together your own mother saying you're hiding something, having gone through a marriage, a divorce, having no means of income and be homeless.
How would you act?
Can't the police come up wit anything better than playing games with a teenager? Isn't the FBI involved too? Maybe you all should add to the reward money and the police should give Misty immunity, then we'll find out if she knows anything, and we can all move on.
Ginger October 28th, 2009 12:36 pm ET
By the way, there is no proof or evidence that clearly proves beyond a doubt that Misty has or is using drugs, only speculation and that she was a passenger in car of teenage girls (that were giving her a place to stay for the night) that were allegedly going to a residence to buy pot. The smashed bottle of unidentified pills outside the residence could have been put there by anyone, including the police, to give them probable cause to search the residence and the girls. We're not working with brain surgeons or rocket scientists here. The biological mother couldn't back up a statement she made about Mistys "three day drug binge" either. just "sumthin I heard somewhere, I guess..."
Maybe Misty should submit to a drug test and a hair sample to clear that up too.
And if she's under all this police surveillance and her phone is tapped, why haven't they caught her attacker? If the police have any evidence at all against her wouldn't they stop her from leaving the state and know her whereabouts at all times?
Amanda October 28th, 2009 12:45 pm ET
Just like everyone else i to think that Misty had something to do with this beautiful little girls disappearance.Not only because of all her inconsistancies but also because she has never shown any real emotion.Misty seemed more distraught and upset in her 911 call when she was robbed during drug deal than she did during her 911 call when Haleigh went missing.For Ronald and his family to say that they dont suspect her playing some type of role in this is absolutely ridiculous.You better believe if that were me in that situation the last one with my child would be the one Id go after and I do anything and everything to get information even if it meant torture I would do it in a heartbeat.I think the authorities need to step up the heat on Misty or get her on more talk shows she seems to open her mouth alot more when bieng interviewed on tv.I just hope they find this gorgeous baby alive she is to precious and young to go especially in a way such as this.Good Luck in the search and dont give up.
Betty Phillips October 28th, 2009 1:21 pm ET
without a shadow of doubt, Misty knows exactly what happened to the sweet litte angel Haleigh., I have watched her (Croslin) behavior go through some drastic changes, that I know the investergators know what they are going to prove that this wicked stepmother has done to this precious child. When she is "dressed up" just watch how she will toss her head and roll her eyes when speaking, a 100% sign that she (croslin) is soo guilty. I still think little Haleigh's body was sent out of the state (Fla) by Croslins brother and that Haleigh's body is somewhere in Mass. Please seach the surroundings where the brother lives, there will be the clues found to give Haleigh the right she needs to be brought home,. This wicked stepmother is an equal to Casey Anthony, they both are very sick and evil women and Cindy Anthony is just as quilty. Why do these women think that they are the only ones living in this world with everyday sense. God bless and protect our little children. Confess the truth Croslin and pay the price for what you did to an Angel. Betty
Mrs. K October 28th, 2009 1:56 pm ET
I totally agree with JB about the whole Florida thing. There is so much that happens in that state, I would like to make a correlation if I may: I watched a documentary on how easy it is to get Rx meds in Florida. It depicted how so many people in Florida are addicted, and how they can Dr. shop and get hundreds and hundreds of pills (Oxycontin seems to be the drug of choice). But people are not just popping pills, they are cooking them to smoke, and shoot, and God only knows what else. It's really nasty stuff going on down in Florida. I don't know if anything has been done about it since the documentary aired, but it looked as if there were Pain Management Clinics on every corner. It's sad to say, but obviously there is drug abuse in the Croslin-Cummings family (along with a lot of other people in Florida). I just wonder if Misty really did take Haleigh to a party where these drugs are so readily available? I think the letter that was written by that girl in jail DOES hold some weight. As much as I want Haleigh to come home and live a happy and healthy life, a part of me wants to believe what's in that letter. If you think about it, it does make since. God Bless Haleigh, wherever she may be.
Jeanette October 28th, 2009 3:10 pm ET
Didn't the little brother say something about hearing "squeaking" on the couch? Do you think that Misty had a male visitor and the kids woke up and maybe Haleigh saw Misty doing something and said she was going to tell her dad, and Misty and her male friend got scared and did something to Haleigh to shut her up? Misty seems like a typical selfish teenager who may have just been thinking about herself and her relationship with Ronald, because she seemed really really happy showing off her engagement ring and not caring about Haleigh.
Jacky Diamond October 28th, 2009 3:16 pm ET
the Police botched this one up really bad. From the beginning misty had no alibi. Ronald could not reach her. Why the police have not arrested her is beyond me. How could she not be a person of interest. I even think that Ronald and Ronald's mother have been covering for her. SHE HAS NO ALIBI-–ARREST HER!!!!!!!!. Do you know that the Green river killer was not considered an suspect as he went on to kill another 30 woman till the next interview. How could Misty not be a suspect. It frustrates me so much. Now even if they find the little girl how can they tell what killed her. ??? Misty is a smart, evil person and I do believe she had help and no one is talking because they know the criminal system very well and they don't want to go to jail.
Karen October 28th, 2009 5:40 pm ET
I don't believe this beautiful child is alive. I think that she will be found hidden in the woods within two miles of where she lived. There have been so many cases where the authorities had already looked several times where the bodies were found. I think Misty killed her and hid the body ....that is why ...she had her phone off....and she didn't answer the door when her brother went to check on her.
mommy October 28th, 2009 5:57 pm ET
I would like to know if the little brother and hair samples of haleigh have been tested for drugs that maybe she has been giving to them all along,,,possibly in their drinks so they could ingest it, so she could go out and party while they slept? Have the detectives looked into this?
tammy October 28th, 2009 6:32 pm ET
I was suspicious from the get go. My initial feeling was that either the sitter wasn't home or that she had a 'guest' and was possibly witnessed in a compromising position & thought she'd be in danger if the child told her daddy. A short time later the little boy told of a stranger and bouncing couch. But must've been discounted by investigators.
SO MANY inconsistancies in the story, almost hard to keep up.
I beleive that Misty knows more than she's saying for sure- but that she either KNOWS that a body will never be recovered and all she has to do is keep her trap shut and/or she is terrified of Ronalds reaction.
Misty comes off to me as a trashy little party girl & I hope that someone talks soon!
Renee October 28th, 2009 7:10 pm ET
Suzie LA: Thank you for reading my blog. That assures me people are seeing it. I had plans to go to John today and see if i could get a few minutes with him to ask more questions. I certainly will ask what happened to Caylee. I cried many tears over her. It may take a few days to get to talk to m friend but i will find out as much as i can and i will blog it here for everyone to see. I cant believe they called of the search for Haleigh. I'm sick over this. And someone made a good point about checking the well... if they have a well. Suzie as soon as i talk to John i will immediately blog it here. I may get to see him but i dont always get a chance to talk with him. I will make it my mission to question him further. Till then take care and thanks again!
Sandie October 28th, 2009 7:18 pm ET
Does anyone know how Misty was dressed that night I haven't heard or saw where that question has ever been asked. I would like to know if she was in pjs or street clothes it seems to me if she was as exhausted as the family has claimed she would not have awaken to even go to the bathroom.
Jeannie October 28th, 2009 7:20 pm ET
With the little we do know, common sense dictates Misty is guilty of SOMETHING. I think she had a boyfriend or drug supplier on the side, who came over with drugs, they wanted to go out and drugged the children, came back and found Misty dead, propped the door open and she prepared her story....and being the tough little nasty that she is, she has been able to stick to it. She needs some really mean cops to take her behind closed doors and let her have it......... I feel that she has probably confided in someone, as has the other party involved who disposed of the body, and maybe their conscious will overtake them. Pray, pray – God can open doors to expose the perpetators without anyone's help. Nancy Grace, you could so easily be lovable – why so mean, hateful and spiteful so much of the time?
Charliee October 28th, 2009 7:33 pm ET
I think Ron knows exactly what happen to his daughter. Remember the night Ron came home from work? Supposedly, as soon as he found out his daughter was not in the trailer, he immediately talked about her being "stolen". That's not natural. He would of first started looking for her. And would have looked for a long time before even thinking of her as being kidnapped. Yep, IMO Ron is responsible. No doubt about it.
Daisy sechrist October 28th, 2009 7:45 pm ET
When Misty's brother came by her home, was there a vehicle parked there? Did Misty have access to a car the night of the disappearance? If she had a car, did the brother notice whether it was parked at the time he went to her home? Were there any tire tracks around the home that night other than Ronald's?
Louise October 28th, 2009 8:18 pm ET
Hi Nancy, I love your show. I used to live in Florida, so I know that Putnum County is relatively close to Clay County. My Question is: What is the possibilty that Haleigh and Summers abductor is the same person? It seems a possibilty. Thanks.
Louise October 28th, 2009 8:21 pm ET
Sorry. I spelled Somers name wrong.

I think the whole family on both sides and everyone involved and friends all know something terrible happened to haleigh and she isnt coming home alive. they are all irresponsible and all are a bunch of liars. the grandmothers bio dad and mother misty and everyone they know. ron s mother crys with no tears, talks and redirects her answers with god stuff, you dont get a truthful answer or direct answer from any of them. my thought about it is ron and misty are in this together, i think the little girl got in the middle of a heated argument between ron and misty or the bio mom and she was harmed in some way. i think this happened before ron went to work and they all planned the afterward story and ron went to work like usuall. i think they are all covering for each other and this is a repeat of the casey anthony case, with lies, and grandparents in denial. i dont think there is any truth in any of them. I think they need to bring in officers and police from another district cause these cops in this county are bias and know the family and dont have a clear view on the investigation. i do believe tim miller is right and is being condemed because he is on to the entire family and their lies and deciet, just like the anthonys. and just like the anthonys they want to reap in all the cash publicity they can before the truth comes out and haleigh is found. i believe they seen the anthony case and what they got away with and are pulling the same stunts. all of them have nothing, come from nothing, and probably live off the system . none of them were good parents, role models for their kids. not even the grandparents. otherwise this wouldnt be happening in this way. typical florida low lifes the whole bunch of them. there is no excuse that can make any of them appear to have an ounce of responsibility, morals, truth or god in them. why hasnt florida taken the little brother away for his safe being? florida needs to stop being the good ole boy back wood state and get with the times. to many children are unsafe in florida.
just wondering... October 28th, 2009 9:35 pm ET
If Misty was estranged from Ronald for two or three days prior to the day Haleigh went missing, who was the caregiver for his two children, Haleigh and Jr? Has anyone interviewed that person?
Doesn't Ronald have another illegitimate child with another woman? A disabled son? Has anyone checked that mother and all her friends/family out?
I'm sorry, but at this point it does appear that there is a "witch hunt" attitude towards Misty. If it turns out that she is found innocent will the police/media be responsible for her therapy? She most likely will have someone write a book about her ordeal or have movie rights.
Lets all pray someone will come forward and help bring Haleigh home. Someone has had to have seen or heard something.

Does anybody think its possible that Haleigh was beaten and killed by Ronald before he left for work? It has been proven that he was abusive several times–is it so far fetched to propose he may have lost control and went overboard? Maybe it was all a cover up. Maybe they both gave Junior something to sleep–because when Misty's brother was knocking on the window I don't know ow he wouldn't wake up in a trailor–the walls are paper thin. If he would have woke up he would have been scared and alone. I can't imagine any child sleeping through that. Maybe that was their cover up. Let Misty take all the heat and act "stupid." Maybe he knew she could get away with it as long as he had an alibi–why else would he be so high strung that night? Maybe Misty's accomplice was Ronald.

From the beginning, I thought Misty had something to do with the situation. I think that athorities need to go back months and look at phone records. I think that everyone listed in her contacts or anyone who received or sent text messages to her should be spoken to. This poor child DID NOT deserve this. My heart goes out to the family and I hope that Hailey is found alive.

I agree that Misty wasn't brought up in a good home, and maybe that is why she can be so cold and insensitive. She is a teenager and Ronald is too old for her. He's probably wasn't raised in the best environment either. As for Haleigh's mom, I can't imaging not knowing anything about my own child. What is soooo sad is that all of this dysfunction has cost a little girl her life. I pray that someone felt sorry for Haleigh and kidnapped her to give her a better life, but realistically that poor precious baby may be dead or suffering, because her mom was not involved on a day to day basis, Ronald couldn't even get her a decent bed to sleep on? Him and Misty should sleep on the floor, my kids have NEVER slept on the floor no matter what my financial situation has been, and as for Misty why would she care about Haleigh when nobody ever cared about her(Misty)? She don't care. Misty should have been arrested. God Bless you Haleigh wherever you are, you are a precious angel and you deserve better!!!

Ron’s mother stated on Nancy Grace approximately one month prior that she has or had a prescription for oxycontin. Since there has been much speculation about Haleigh overdosing on oxycontin, I would like to know if LE interviewed Ron’s mother about her prescription, if Ron has ever used or stolen his mother’s prescription, and if Ron’s mother ever reported her prescription stolen with LE (a common practice when prescriptions are abused) or local pharmacies for a refill. Furthermore, why did Nancy Grace never question Ron’s mother about her oxycontin prescription. Nancy Grace is a smart one, and I have no doubt that she did not miss that comment, yet chose to not comment about it. It is relevant that Ron’s mother had a prescription for oxycontin, so why not investigate further???

The father has irritated me more than any one. I think he is slow, he has to be. Everyone can tell she is a liar. I am ready for her to be locked up. Maybe her and Casy Anthony can be cell mates.

Ronald and his mother may not be the sharpest people, but not so dumb as to carry on this sham of Misty is not involved and is innocent of everything. Ron and his mother must see no evil, hear no evil or speak no evil to just ignore the three failed polygraph examinations and one voice analysis test. So, I wonder what are Ron and his mother’s MOTIVE to carry on this charade of belief in Misty. This is why I question Ron’s mother’s prescription for oxycontin. There is no question Ron and Misty hang with a group known for criminal activity and drug use. So, I think it is believable that Haleigh did get her hands on oxycontin while in Misty’s care. Misty brought this to Ron’s attention while at work, which carried on through several phone calls and verbal fights. And, Misty pointed out that Ron is as guilty for Haleigh’s death for having access to the oxycontin, obtained from Ron’s mother. Motive for Ron and his mother carrying on this stupid charade of belief in Misty, the key to solving Haleigh’s whereabouts!!! So Nancy Grace, stop taking it easy on Ron’s family. Justice for Haleigh, not for next week’s ratings, which have dropped. Yet, I still love ya Nancy Grace!!!

Of course Misty Croslin knows what happened, and I think that her brother had something to do with it. He was at the house when he said no one was at home. I think it was all a plan to get rid of that little girl so that Misty could be the center of attention. And the fact that these people are known drug abusers makes things even worse. "pill heads" lose touch with reality!!
Krisam October 29th, 2009 4:33 pm ET
I would like to know from Nancy Grace’s associates or Art Harris if oxycontin is a drug of choice for Ron, Misty, and their group of thug friends!!!

This story has really touched my heart. I feel in my heart that Haleigh is alive. I'm not giving up any hope. For those of you that are blaming Ronald Cummings for trusting Misty, etc., please don't. You can tell how much he loves his little girl. Misty is evidently not all she was cracked up to be when she was with him. However, that is not his fault. I do feel that Misty knows the whole story and she needs to give it up.
I'm holding out hope that Haleigh is alive and will come home. TO RONALD – I PRAY FOR YOU, JR., YOUR MOM, AND ESPECIALLY HALEIGH EVERYDAY. Don't ever give up. I'm not! God Bless you!
Love,
Melissa, Walnutport, PA

I really feel for the Cummings family! I saw Ron crying his eyes out and i started crying! I think Ron is innocent. I do think that Misty is invovled somehow, but she did say that Ron's in-laws had something to do with Haleigh's dissapearance, the cops should check that out!! I truly hope and pray that she is still alive and that she will come home to her Daddy soon!!

someone please answer this question for me since Misty has not....we know she says she washed Haleigh's blanket because it smelled like pee...what was the reason for washing the blanket on the window? And...where is THAT blanket?
Sarah October 30th, 2009 2:29 am ET
The police have ruled out Chrystal and everyone in her family...they have ruled out Ron and everyone in his...they have even ruled out a few extended family members of Misty's but they have NOT ruled her out so you bet that is their focus!
I don't believe for a minute that Chrystal did anything to her daughter..why take Haleigh and not her son too? why not clock Misty in the head as to not leave a possible witness? The fact that Chrystal did not have physical custody is sad IMO...have you seen the way Ron behaves? I have no doubt in my mind that they had a very tumultuous relationship when together...now don't get me wrong just hear me out...Chrystal HAD a drug problem by all appearances it's something she has kicked...and Ron according to her and others has an anger control issue...they are this child's MOMMY AND DADDY regardless of who has custody...if we're going to knock Chrystal for being young, possibly bullied, getting involved with drugs and losing custody then by rights Ron should get knocked for leaving his children with a child...I don't want either parent knocked down...they are going through Hell! Regardless of how they feel about each other...they have a daughter out there somewhere that needs to be found, my son's father has visitation, my son lives with me full time, that doesn't mean my son's dad is a deadbeat anymore than it means Chrystal is because she didn't have custody...I just see a bit of a double standard and I keep going back to the first few days this baby was gone and Ron kneeling in the grass...who was consoling him and crying WITH HIM? Chrystal was...as I recall I didn't see Misty on the ground with him...I saw Haleighs REAL MOMMY sharing that comfort
in some situations with parents who do not get along...the one that has the kids won't share information so easily with the non custodial parent...it's done purposefully....not saying that IS what Ron has done but if we are to believe Chrystal's story about the playground accident and about how she didn't know anything about it until after seeing Haleigh's injuries than that would be parental alienation...I guess my son's dad and I are cut from a different cloth..we not only communicate and make decisions for our son but we're also friends...we're very lucky! I just don't like to see a parent..male or female get run through the mud when they have been cleared..neither Chrystal or Ronald are perfect by any means, but they both are going through a parents worst nightmare...for Misty...someone who "loves those kids like they were her own"??? She sure doesn't seem to miss her one bit...have you noticed when seen out in public she doesn't wear Haleigh T's or buttons...only when she's being interviewed on all expense paid trips...hmmmmmm?
