DotsEyes, I don't know very many women who had kids at 12 and 13, do you? Very few 17 yr. olds are raising 4 and 5 y.o. kids. They were not Misty's son and daughter. But I do see your point. She might have been exhausted from cleaning, etc. And not being their mother, she would not have had those motherly instincts kicking in, like waking when your child makes a sound. BUT, if Haleigh were in the toddler bed or on the big bed, wouldn't you notice her gone the INSTANT you woke up/got up? And not have to get halfway to the bathroom... either one... before noticing a light on? The way she says this, it seems that she woke up, started to the bathroom, noticed the kitchen light on, saw the back door wide open, then went back to the bedroom to get the cell phone to call Ronald, THEN noticed Haleigh gone. Isn't that a little odd? I would notice my child not in her bed the first thing... not the last thing.
She's young, I give her that... and that says it all. A loving and concerned father would not trust his children to someone that ditzy... JMO.
She has said so many things about that night that it has become silly to even repeat them.
But let's have a go;
She woke up a litte before 3.
She woke up after 3.
She saw a three on the clock when she woke up.
She noticed Haleigh missing when she woke up to get a drink.
She noticed Haleigh missing on the way back from the bathroom.
She noticed Haleigh missing after she saw the kitchen light on.
She noticed Haleigh missing before she found the door open.
She noticed Haleigh missing after she found the door open.
She called RC after she saw the light on.
She called RC before she discovered Haleigh missing.
She called RC after she noticed Haleigh missing.
She called RC after she noticed the door open.
She called RC as he was pulling in the driveway.
She called RC as he was on the road almost home.
She didn't call RC, as he got home as she was calling him.
The blanket stories.
Which movies they watched.
When they watched them.
Where they watched them.
What time they went to bed.
What bed each one was in.
What she covered them with.
etc, etc, etc!
And she isn't the only one changing stories, or adding stories;
GM, GGM, RC, CC, CS, Jr, etc, etc, etc!
Then add GA, CA, DC, LP, Cobra, CS atty, RC atty, GR, GVS, NG, The today show, etc etc etc!
Also, our local posters; player, stormy, LFlorida, Annafl, pirate, etc, etc, etc!
LE appears to not know where she is,
whether someone took her,
or something happened there.
As they have said, "We don't know what crime occurred, or when the event happened."
The only thing we all know for sure is Haleigh isn't where she is supposed to be.
So, where is she? What happened to her?
No one seems to know. But many seem to think the best thing to do about it is;
deny, deny, deny,
and lie, lie, lie,
and muddy the water as much as possible,
and fight over Jr.
OMGosh! What a mess!!!
