ok, I'm still stuck on the something happened that night inside the home theory. It must have been an accident from either neglect or abuse, for 911 not to be called asap.
I have three working theories at this time...
1. Misty is supposed to have the kids to bed at 8pm per Ron's orders, perhaps she's been instructed by Ron to give Haleigh otc meds to induce sleep so she can get enough rest and not miss any more school. Because Misty doesn't have a clue as to her weight she gives too much at 8 or 8:30 when she puts her to bed. At 10 or 10:30 she checks on Haleigh as she is going to bed and the child is gone (passed). Ron takes lunch and runs home. They decide she's already gone... and he doesn't want to lose his son (they've been investigated by cps already). He, takes her down to the pond and leaves her in the shed - while they figure out their plans - he then takes the boat & body (possibly in a container) and takes the water route to his dad's (placing her somewhere along the route) and has Misty get JR and drive his truck and meet him there. JR is sleeping. at this point Misty could take JR back home by boat and dad rushes back to work, or they drive to dad's work and Misty takes the truck and rushes back home. Cleans as directed. then picks him up after work and drops him off to pick the boat back up and they meet back at the trailer.
2. Misty puts the kids to bed and leaves, Ron comes home at 10ish to check on her - she's gone, he is red hot, haleigh wets to bed and wakes up, she is crying and upset, Ron's temper gets the best of him. He takes Haleigh's body to the shed down by the pond and leaves it there until later. Takes off early from work, stops by dad's grabs a boat - takes the waterway over to pick up haleigh and dispose of her on way back over to dad's then heads home. He knows Misty was gone, Misty really has no clue what happened while she was away.
3. Misty has company that she shouldn't have at the house, she is either drunk or stoned and passes out. Someone takes puts her into bed and grabs haleigh on the way out.
been thinking on it more and Ron & Misty could have drove over to fathers, grabbed boat without dad knowing - Misty then takes the boat back to their place, puts haleigh inside it, ties that boat to the one at their place and pulls it back to ron's dads. leaves the boat & child (wrapped in blanket) there and heads back home to JR who is alone sleeping in trailer. When Ron gets off he stops over a dad's and takes the body to dispose of it - before heading back home in his truck.
toddler beds have mattresses that have plastic outer shell - so they can be wiped down. could anything remove the scent of death from blankets or be used to clean a plastic surface???? also - the shed, was it dirt floor?? or cement?? did the cadaver dogs check the shed??
here is a
google map from Ron's to what I believe to be Ron's dad's address (correct me if I'm wrong on the address please!!!).
------------------
adding as I think of things:
-Ron is a hunter, and from his rap sheet we see he likes to hunt at night.(knows way around woods at night)
-Ron is a fisherman - pics of him fishing with haleigh - probably knows way around the waterways in the dark.
-ron had access to waterway from his home
-had access to boat or boats?
-can travel to his dads back yard via waterway... (assuming I have name & address correct)
-pink shirt could have been used to leave scent through woods, around neighborhood then easily tossed in laundry basket before police arrived.
-a plastic storage bin could have been used to transport the body in first two scenarios
