According to Ron's Lawyer Misty Never Returned This Weekend.

[PorcineGranny]

Do you have a link because I have not heard his job did not entail running a crane? Thanks.

SeriouslySearching, hi, I don't know where the link is you are requesting but I remember the conversation. It was thought it was highly unlikely Ron was a crane operator because of training and I think a license. Without experience or training it would be more likely he operated a forklift. But, just recently I learned that he did whatever needed to be done there, so I don't think he had a definite title. Hope this helps

Tony McCauley, director of human resources for PDM Bridge, said Cummings’ bosses never heard from him following Haleigh’s disappearance Feb. 10. McCauley said Cummings could have asked for a leave of absence.

*SNIP*

Cummings operated a rolling crane at the plant north of Palatka. He was not a longtime employee.
“We still have a great deal of sympathy for Mr. Cummings and his family and certainly hope for the best,” McCauley said.

To add to the mix/documentation FWIW, Ron's Lawyer said this on NG night before last:

SHOEMAKER: He was hired as a crane operator. However, his job duties would, you know, differ depending on what they had in store for him that night.​

That could easily be a source of confusion about what he actually did there.

That article that SS refers to about RC operating a crane is not substantiated at all. It was the words of the reporter who was fed the info....not PDM. I think the lawyer tries to save face. I doubt he was hired as a crane operator and works in the yard doing odd jobs. Crane Operators need to be certified. Hard to imagine them hiring RC, not certified, and giving him the title.

I have heard him and family say in early interviews that he operated a crane....have my doubts, always have. He may have thought he was going to do that, when he started, however; that is not what he did do despite the fact you keep seeing in repeated that he did...IMO. I keep getting fed these articles by posters who saw it written and believe it as fact.

Reporter take info off the AP and run with it. They fill in the articles with pieces of info that another reporter says. The only time we should believe it as fact is when they quote the source and the PERSON who said it.

Regarding RC and "Not a long time employee"..it is beginning to sound like a mantra.

Thanks, Ath~

Well...looks like this settles it. It is coming straight from PDM.

Which brings us back to how exactly is she paying for her little trip? What did she and Ron have in available funds? (probably not much they were living in a tent while the MH was a crime scene). Have they or Ron recieved any payments for media interviews? (I do notice there was a new photo of Hayleigh making the media rounds last week). How much of what spousal funds there were went on a trip along with Misty?

(respectfully snipped for space)

Fae, I believe Ronald is receiving child support. Since he and Misty have no real living expenses, they can probably afford to spend the money on recreation.

eh...possibly a larger supply of drugs to sell?

Yes, and there are also a lot of *exotic dancing* establishments there. No education required.

It sounds like he operates a piece of lifting/moving equipment within the factory itself. This is a far diferent from being a licensed and certified crane operator able to operate multi story cranes in the public space, such as for major construction projects.

Haleigh deserves better than this. For every girl that ever danced, ever did things un-worthy of the Princess' they truly are, never prayed nor asked to grow up in a world that writes them as un-educated girls "stripping" them of really all they have. Themselves.

Run, Misty, Run!!!

Get the HECK away from Satsuma and Welaka. [If you're even there.]

I'm not sure I'm following......the original poster didn't highlight the word like you did, or referred to women who strip as uneducated, merely pointing out that establishments don't look at curriculum vitae on the girls who want to work there..........:waitasec:

They are like overhead cranes that run on tracks. Hard to explain but here is a linkhttp://www.americancrane.com/industrial/industrial.htm

I believe I read that when Crystal paid the back child support , that she was continuing payments and was up to date. So, he is receiving child support. Sadly, I feel that is one of the main reasons he is holding on to Jr.

Kool, I'm not clearly understanding your posts. I guess I am just a concrete thinker.

I am not exactly sure how child support and employment history or even exotic dancing are related to the title of this thread which is "according to Ron's lawyer Misty never returned home this weekend". Misty seems to be back in Satsuma. I hope that the rumors are true and they did spend time at Universal with RJ. I couldn't understand why in the world Misty would go there but if Ron and RJ joined her for the day it explains it a bit.

Some people were speculating about Misty's whereabouts. Then one poster mentioned that perhaps she had gone looking for work, to establish a new life. Then other folks were wondering how in the world Ron and Misty could afford a trip to Universal (or wherever) and it was brought up that perhaps they used the child support money.

HTH

Ha, just look at the rumor thread, that's where it came from. I guess PCSO lied about him operating a crane..go figure

Crystal really didn't pay squat and Ron holds on to Jr. because that's his son that he's raised since he was a baby and considering he had not received any support from her for years and he still kept his children I don't know how you can say he holds on to him because of support.

Cajun is there public info on any payments made after the "mystery woman" paid off Crystal's years of unpaid support?

Marie gave a copy of the support payments to a blogger and it was posted here somewhere. Last I saw after whomever paid the 12,000+ in back support another 600+ dollar payment was made. I haven't seen anything since then to know if she's up to date or not.

(bbm) The financial benefits under the circumstances are hardly limited to receiving income from child support tho as there's the rather obvious further advantage in that he simultaneously avoids paying out any support.
