FL-AMBER ALERT Haleigh Cummings 5 yrs. old - Putnam County #9

[MeoW333]

I think Misty went out, and knowing that BF comes home at 3:30, got home just before then. That's why she noticed at 3, NOT because she used the bathroom.

She knew to get back home just before he got home from work. She knows he'd be mad at her for leaving the children alone. I think it's very possible she went to the brothers house. She probably went out the back, left the back door unlocked, then cut through the woods. A SO could have put the cinderblock against the door once it was clear, since he'd be carrying out Haleigh (possibly wrapped in a blanket) so his arms wouldn't be free..

What about the ones that are NOT registered....Like John Couey, he had little Jessie right across the freakin' street. Every trailer in that park should be searched, top to bottom, left to right, under, around.[/QUOTE
That is so true.

Here's a thought. Knowing that a locked mobile home door can be popped in a second with a screwdriver or pocketknife:

What if perp tried to open backdoor after propping open screen/storm door with block and could not open it due to deadbolt. Goes around the house and tries to open front door and is successful. Closes door behind him.

Abducts child and then opens back door/dead bolt from INSIDE and exits that door. Less conspicuous to exit back door with child than front door.

Is it clear if "back door propped open" is the actual door or the screen? Most mobile home doors have a storm door or screen in addition to the main door.

This morning I woke up and thought Haleigh would be found by now.............so sad.
This is another case of dyfunctional adults raising a sweet baby girl...........
How bad are Halieghs disability (Turner syndrome)?
I am so glad that Tim Miller is there! He's the best.

Actively persued over 350 leads...still operating under assumption this is an abduction...can't answer if Haleigh was at school on Monday...

What ????.....it's Friday, & no one can verify school from Monday ????

 

[alwaysonmymind]

A reporter asked the sheriff why the family has not released more photos/video of Haleigh?

I think that is a good question.

I can recall 4 photos.

These people aren't level. moo

ITA , if this story is in fact true.(she was abducted )
It is giving flash backs of the Destiny Norton case.

 

[kiddosforme]

Who doesn't LE just contact the school for their attendence records to check the child's recent attendence?

Is 17 not considered "underage" in Fl?

Off Topic but I get where you are going. I have a daughter that just turned 18 the man across the street....30 something wants to take her to dinner cause she is so pretty and of age now....according to him....It's pathetic and if he doesn't knock it off my husband will kill him!

I can tell you this, having a son that is a drug addict I have seen more then my share of what a person acts live when they use them. Even when they are clean the drugs take weeks to get out of the body and emotions are really screwed up...........that being said: My feeling is all three of these people Dad, GF and the real mother are heavy drug users and their emotions don't add up.

Can't or won't. My impression of his answer was that he could but chooses not to because the answer might contradict the father's statement. And he does not want to give anything away just yet. KWIM?

 

[passionflower]

I think she is lyinag about something postentially inadvertant that may have in her mind, contributed to the event. I dont sense she is involved directly.

I believe this is what is referred to as an "acquaintance offender", in other words unknowingly, someone gave permission to let the vampire in the house.

I agree with the acquaintance offender........gf very young..........who were her friends when dad worked 12 hour shifts?
She could be easily fooled, IMO.
When asked by OTR (Greta) if they were drinking (party house? ask neighbors) gf looked funny then said NO.

 

[djk]

i think a lot of the confusion in this case stems from the fact that these people are just not that bright/educated and are part of a certain kind of culture

i agree the inconsistencies with the GF's story are suspect, but i think some things--like the biomom's one word answers, the fact she has no idea where she heard certain facts, the fact her fiance is sending her fun myspace apps and has a page full of bikini-clad models while her child is missing--is more a reflection of the fact that these people are, well, just REALLY country, to put it mildly. i would take my myspace page down or at least make it private as soon as my family was the focus of an abducted child investigation. and i certainly wouldn't be talking about my "brats!!!"

and maybe the GF's story is actually consistent but she's not explaining it well because she's not very articulate. she does, after all, ask what the 911 operator means by "numerical" address

and crystal says on her myspace that she doesn't read because books give her "headackes."

not trying to be snotty here, really not, and certainly i hope and pray this poor little girl is found safe and sound, but i grew up around a LOT rednecks, and all the weird behavior here, a lot of it, can just be chalked up to the kind of culture these people are a part of.

i hope i don't get in trouble for saying this. but it's really different from the anthony case because it's a much different kind of family, IMO. not that the anthonys aren't really problematic, but i find reading into the things this family is saying and doing to be not all that productive, whereas reading into the caylee case seems to make a little more sense...i think the anthonys are capable of covering stuff up and plotting. not sure these people are. sometimes what you see is what you get.

I agree with much of what you say. Country people do seem strange on many levels but one thing I have experienced is that most of them have hearts of gold, family means a heck of a lot to them, and they as a group will try to help you as much as they can evn though they may not really know you that well. so they do lack a lot, but then again they do have certain qualities that other more educated more well off people do not have.

Some were drawing similarities to the McCann case, where the family thinks nothing can happen being just a short distance away.

--snipped--

I have the same theory... it's just too easy to pop open a door that does not have a deadbolt! Going down a ramp has got to be a lot easier than steps when carrying a possibly kicking and flailing 5 year old, while trying to keep her quiet.

How bad are Halieghs disability (Turner syndrome)?
I am so glad that Tim Miller is there! He's the best.

Here are the symptoms of Turners Syndrome

Common symptoms of Turner syndrome include:

Short stature
Lymphedema (swelling) of the hands and feet
Broad chest (shield chest) and widely-spaced nipples
Low hairline
Low-set ears
Reproductive sterility
Rudimentary ovaries gonadal streak (underdeveloped gonadal structures)
Amenorrhea, or the absence of a menstrual period
Increased weight, obesity
Shield shaped thorax of heart
Shortened metacarpal IV (of hand)
Small fingernails
Characteristic facial features
Webbing of the neck (webbed neck)
Coarctation of the aorta
Poor breast development
Horseshoe kidney
Visual impairments sclera, cornea, glaucoma, etc.
Ear infections and hearing loss.
Other symptoms may include a small lower jaw (micrognathia), cubitus valgus (turned-out elbows), soft upturned nails, palmar crease and drooping eyelids. Less common are pigmented moles, hearing loss, and a high-arch palate (narrow maxilla). Turner syndrome manifests itself differently in each female affected by the condition, and no two individuals will share the same symptoms.

I got this info from Wikipedia

I gotta say this.

You wake up and the back door that you never use is wide open.

Your child is not in her bed.

My own instincts would be to run out there screaming her name.

Why didn't they do that?

Your bf is at work and you don't call your brother who lives right behind you to help you find her?

Hinky hinky hinky.

That is what I am taking from it too, however I tend to think that since the father said he picked her up from the bus, that certainly she did not go to school that day..
Something is really wrong here! If nothing was wrong, LE would have already told the public that these people were all clear..Maybe they are only focusing on one of them and saying that no one is clear just to stay closed lipped with the one that isn't telling the truth..

May be OT, or may get lashed with a noodle, BUT....my sis brought to my attention something TUBA on our Astro site mentioned about a "bluff" having something to do with this child....there's a "Buffalo Bluff" Road or one of those things...Lane or Cove or Street....right within that area. It a dead end street, as well.

Do you think Tuba may have meant 'bluff' as being just a bluff, like someone is trying to call a bluff on someone. I know they said there has been a custody battle so maybe bio-mom or dad playing games with each other and little girl being used as a pawn to show one or the other unfit.
