(B/ULBM)
Jumping off this post, I know alot of people are frustrated with this case and the slow movement of it. I believe the SA and all involved in the investigation are doing everything they can to find Haleigh and bring justice for her.
Ron is his own worst enemy. He thinks he is so smart and smug and that he is fooling everyone. He will trip himself up. The SA/LE have him right where they want him. He got greedy with his plea deal on the drug charges. If he tells a lie and LE/SA can prove it he is done. He doesn't know what they have on him and what other people have said in their statements to LE. He is being played. As I've said before the trap is set and Ron will trip it. He will be caught and will pay for all of the mistakes he has made in his sorry life, as well as the others involved.

Re:BBM above;
I agree a hundred percent! If you don't mind, I'd like to jump off of your post Twall (what is this now, triple-jump-post?! lol). I've brought a previous post of mine along because it includes the words of the plea agreement, read by the SA in the courtroom (8/20/10);

IMO, based upon the outlined paragraph that the SA stood and read in the courtroom prior to RC officially accepting the plea offer before the judge, this is an absolute win/win for the state of Florida and more importantly, for the investigators in HaLeigh's case;
Quoting the SA;
Mr. Cummings understands and agrees that this negotiation comtemplates him providing
truthful, substantial assistance to include, but not limited to, truthful testimony if called upon by the state of Florida in any lawful proceeding including, but not limited to, statements, depositions, hearings, trials, or any other situation required.
I understand that my failure to provide
substantial assistance or truthful testimony in any lawful proceeding when called upon by the state will constitute a breach of this negotiated deposition contract and, as a consequence, my plea will stand but the negotiated sentence will not and I may be sentenced to any lawful sentence, which includes up to the statutory maximum on each individual count, consecutively.

I'm of the opinion that the SA would not have offered Ronald this deal/made this agreement UNLESS they already had him halfway in the bag and they know, with this agreement, Ronald will put himself in the rest of the way. You hit it spot-on here Twall when you said; "He doesn't know what they have on him and what other people have said in their statements to LE." As discouraged as I get with this case, down-deep I truly believe that there's a very good reason behind the silence from Ronald's neighbors, co-workers, HaLeigh's school, and yes, even the A/C guy, who's rumored to be Ronald's cousin's ex, and Ronald's "past" friend Orlando. Ronald has been resting easy, believing that the only real threat to him would be from those whose testimony would very unlikely hold up in a court of law and under cross exam (Croslin's, NayNay, Amber, Crystal, etc,etc,ect.,). But what Ronald isn't expecting is those who have very wisely, particularly for their own safety and the safety of their families, remained silent -some falling off the radar altogether, being his opponents. Those who won't/can't be so easily discredited/dismissed.
How anyone can read this plea agreement and interpret it to mean that the SA views Ronald favorably, or at least more favorable than any of the others involved, and believes that is why Ronald was given this plea deal, is beyond me. IMO, brace for a shock - Especially Ronald's when he finds out that people really did come through for HaLeigh - credible individuals who gave statements, statements that they'll testify to in a court of law. Testimony (finally) pertaining to the time he arrived/left work, the noise(s) regularly heard from within his home (i.e., shouting threats, screams, children crying...), the vehicle traffic coming and going from the house, particularly on the night/early morning in question that HaLeigh disappeared, and who picked HaLeigh up at the bus stop that last fateful day, etc,etc,etc.
My prediction: This isn't going to play out like Ronald's
other past days in court...
