First of all, this group was so drug-addled I am surprised an alert CPS worker didn't take the kids from Ron. (Many reports were made to CPS/DCF and all were ignored. I think there was an on going investigation at the time of Haleigh disappearance as well and DCF closed "all" the cases from what was said early on.)
They are really not too bright down in Fla. when it comes to child safety at CPS. Lots of kids slipping thru the cracks.
Anyway, these people were high all the time. Its possible Misty did it, its also possible she doesn't even know or remember what happened. ( I agree, it is possible. It is possible that Ron did it as well as anyone else. At this point they are all POI in one way or another IMO.)
I just don't "feel" Ron did anything to Haleigh, he look genuinely grief stricken on TV, but I am not 100% on that as I know people have done some award winning performances in order to look not guilty. (I agree that he looked grief stricken, almost like if he already knew that his daughter was dead IMO. Parents that kill their children can put on Emmy award performances that's for sure. Not saying Ron had anything to gain if he did kill/hurt Haleigh. It could of been an accident by him or Misty IMO, and maybe they figured disposing of Haleigh would be easier than facing murder charges?)
But LE said his work alibi was rock solid, I thought? (Art Harris and TJ Hart said that. LE only said that they "WERE SATISFIED" with Ron's work hrs and have refused to answer that question for the public or the media.)
And what did Ron have to gain by killing his own daughter? ( Nothing, a paid debt, an accident? Anything is possible at this point.)
I'm not saying he doesn't know NOW who did it, etc, but IF he did wouldn't he be using that as a tool to bargain with for less prison time on the drug charges? (If he knew anything at all why did he not tell LE on Feb 10, 2009? Why would he wait to be busted on drug charges and use the information to his advantage to get a lesser sentence? If he had no involvement and had information why would he not share that with LE when Haleigh first went missing? Why did he and Misty avoid LE from around March 2009 to the fall of 2009?)
Second of all, this whole clan, both sides or all 3 sides if you include Crystals dysfunctional (at best) people all lie so much that even if one of them spoke the Honest-to-God truth about what happened, who would know if it was a lie or the truth? (CS has not lied about anything regarding the Haleigh case as far as I know. I agree that the Cummings/Croslins have lied though and Haleigh went missing while in her father's custody not CS.)
How far back, how many generations of these families were so screwed up? Cos we have great grandmothers involved that are a few bricks shy of a load, too. And the rampant drug use!!! (I agree, the whole lot of them are drug users and abuser and I am not defending their drug use, but can say that some that are users still care for their children and their children come first. Not all drug users are so negligent towards their children the way Ronald was, leaving them alone, in a car alone, in the MH alone, with Misty knowing she left them alone, with Misty knowing she was on a 3 day drug binge that prior weekend.
My God, how co)uld they afford that? Is that why some lived with other relatives, such as parents, or in run-down places, cos of all the drug buying (and selling)? (All of the above probably, or they went without phone, cable, cell phones, some of the luxuries some are accustom to just so they can have their next fix. Or as Ronald-Misty-Hope-Tommy did, Sell drugs to make money to buy and use drugs.
I don't think Haleigh will ever be found. I think there's a little bit of truth in her being thrown in that river and if she was, she was taken by the current and the gators. May She Rest in Peace. I think the whole lot of them will do their jail time for the drug charges and many years from now will be released, and Haleigh will only be a distant memory to those of us that followed the case so closely. So sad, but IMO true. ( I agree, if Haleigh was thrown in the river she will never be found and the real POI will end up getting away with murder.)
