FL-AMBER ALERT Haleigh Cummings 5 yrs. old - Putnam County #1

[MeoW333]

Can they determine where the brick came from yet? Was it already there or did the perp bring it from nearby?
Sometimes doors can be squeaky and if she abducted then the perp would want to make as little noise as possible. Maybe that's why the door was propped open with the brick. Maybe it was a squeaky door.
Also the kidnapper would be carrying the child, he'd want the door open to get out quickly since while holding the child, his arms wouldn't be free and i think that's where the brick comes in..

I would like to look at bio-moms myspace please? TIA for a link.

The temperature was in the mid 40s-low 50s and it was overcast.

I'll look for the link, Kat, the bio mom's name is Crystal Sheffield.

"Haleigh’s mother, Crystal Sheffield, 23, of Glen St. Mary, arrived in mid-morning with her mother. Marie Griffis said her daughter and Cummings have not been together for about three years but were not at odds. She said Haleigh visited them in Baker County every other weekend. Her daughter and Cummings have a 3-year-old son, Ronald Jr., who was taken to other relatives Tuesday."

If the door opened out...I don't see it being a problem for him to get out quickly with a child in his arms.

If the door was squeaky or needed to be propped open to avoid it closing due to the trailer being unlevel...it would seem the perp would have to know this ahead of time in order to grab the brick to use.

ETA: So now we are back to little Ronald being 3 years old! Grrrr! Someone get it straight please!

According to the bio mom's myspace she has a 3rd child who is named Chloe and is 9 months old so i'm guessing that baby is with her and probably from a later marriage (not the same father as Haleigh and Ronald)

Yes, I belive she had Chloe with the guy named Chad, whom is also on myspace.

Thank you MeoW333, for some unknown reason her myspace page keeps locking up my browser. Probably something my kids have done to this computer, no doubt.

Watched the video of his plea for her return. This seems odd. Anybody heard the last time someone other than the father and girlfriend seen or talked to the child? I'm still feeling someone in the house is invovled. Hope they can interview the little boy and find out exactly what life was like in that house.

Investigators with the Putnam County Sheriff's Office said it's not clear if Haleigh was abducted. The trailer where she lives had no signs of forced entry, but a back door was ajar.
Haleigh's father said the child was missing when he returned home from work around 3 a.m. Tuesday. Ronald Cummings said his girlfriend was awake and frantic that Haleigh was missing from her bed.

Sounds like GF didn't call 911 until the father came home! Sounds fishy to me! JMO

I noticed that too. There are some things here that don't add up, IMO. The statement the Dad made about the five year old missing child saying, "I'll see you when you get home from work". IMO, that sounds like something an adult would say, I just don't remember my kids saying things like that at five years of age ? Any thoughts ?

It's doing the same to my computer. I think it's just all the stuff on the page.

I just got a chill when I saw bio mom's myspace music. The only time I ever hear Vince Gill's Go Rest High is during funerals or memorials anymore.

Then she has a bumper sticker which reads, "Guns don't kill people. Dads with pretty daughters do.". Innocent probably, but creepy just the same.

 

[SeriouslySearching]

It also sounds like the gf didn't call the father either. Did the father have a cell phone?

 

[Kat]

I got it to work. Beautiful children. I agree, the user Chad is more than likely the youngest child's father.

I'm still trying to get the page to reload so that I can access her blog.

I think whoever did it, was stalking so they knew about it ahead of time, knew the father's work schedule, could see the bathroom light go on.
Also in trailers, you can hear the heat kick on from outside as well.

Your welcome, Kat

Bio mom's blog has 3 pictures in it, i can't get the pictures to load either, it may be the woman's own error when she uploaded them..

This g/f is only a kid herself....does she go to HS?? ITA with the possibility of friends coming over....drinking/drugs....MAYBE she left to go to a friends to party - or for a "sleepover"....LOL Sorry for that one. BUT, I'm serious about her leaving to go hangout with friends.
I keep thinking about my 17 yo niece....my sis still helps her pick out clothes!!
This one is waaaay too bizarre and off to me.....

 

[SeriouslySearching]

Why are you so convinced that it was an abduction, MeoW? I have my doubts.
