I absolutely am not blaming the victim. I don't think domestic abuse should be swept under the rug or ignored. However sometimes women DO lie - it's the women who DO lie about it that is the problem. I'm not at all saying Crystal is but everything I've ever seen her do or say was for her own gain - not for Haleigh. GR tried to provoke Ron and he didn't take the bait.
Like I said, if Crystal really cared about Haleigh, this throwing Ron under the bus could have waited until Haleigh got back. Until she was found. She is making this whole thing about her and her abuse - it's NOT ABOUT CRYSTAL. I don't give one flying fruit about Crystal at this moment - her DAUGHTER is missing. I think its sad when a group of strangers seem to care more about Haleigh's (safe) return than her own mother, who is concerned about getting hers (like setting up her own donation fund). thats just MOO.
