Ok ya'll, I've been thinking about a few things today:
Here is what I think is going on in this case overall:
I believe that we are looking at a 4 part crime and this is what I mean....
1. I believe that there is one murderer-whether it be someone who gave Haleigh drugs, shot her, raped and strangled her, hit her in the head with a board (I hated typing that), there is only one person who is responsible. This person would have the most to lose in this whole situation.
2. But then we have the clean-up/disposal....I believe that there's several people involved in this part of the crime, not many, maybe 2 or 3...these were the ones that helped dispose of Haleigh's body (wrapping her in a blanket, putting her in trash bag or whatever), and took Haleigh somewhere else....it is my opinion that this part of the crime was the most gruesome task of all.
3. Then there's the Disposal/Burial-this was, to say the least, Haleigh's proper Good Bye. In this part of the crime I think there is at least 2 people involved. I think this is where Haleigh is eventually laid to rest whether it be the river, underground, or wherever. IMO, this part was to honor Haleigh and say good bye. This is a place where Haleigh can be visited on occassion, IMO.
4. Then here's comes the overall cover-up- in this part of the crime, a plan is devised that is to be played out in front of the world (or at least LE)....like who would play the main role (and ultimately become the "key"), the 911 call, staging of the mh, removing any drugs, the marriage, the divorce....
IMO, that's why this case has not been solved...there's too many parts to uncover and too many people involved in the whole scheme of things. You would have to play the game of process of elimination in all parts of this crime.
Who is the main one responsible? IMO, I would have to say Misty, Ron, Teresa, or GMSykes. Misty because she has placed herself as the last one to be with Haleigh and has failed many LDT's. Ron because his suspicious behavior before, during and after Haleigh "disappeared" just did not (to me) add up to him being a grieving father. Teresa because she has been a central figure in this case from the start (in her LE jacket, picture and all), and had her share of suspicious behavior. GMSykes because she puts herself at the mh on the evening something happened to Haleigh and admits to changing Haleigh's shirt, although we could never get a clear description of what Haleigh had on. These are the 4 people I put into this category.
Who did the clean-up/disposal? I believe that this is where Tommy comes into play. I don't think Tommy would've or could've completed this task all by himself. Those that were more than likely to help Tommy would be JO, Misty, or Timmy. I just don't think Jo had anything to do with it because it just seem too convenient to point the finger at him...and Timmy moved away pretty fast to me (which was suspect)and the blue van was in his possession.... and I believe Misty was the reason for Tommy even agreeing to go along with any of it. So, IMO, that leaves Timmy and Misty.
One thing that I am sure of is Tommy played a part. He and the others had the most gruesome task...preparing Haleigh to be taken away. and the only way either of them would participate in the clean-up/disposal is if one of them 3 actually killed Haleigh or they were led to believe that one of the 3 had killed her. Out of these 3, the only one on my who's responsible list is Misty. IMO, Tommy came to Misty's aid in this situation and only because he thought that she was responsible or would be held responsible for whatever happened to Haleigh. I think Tommy was given instructions as to where to take Haleigh. And I believe that the instruction came from Misty as she had been given the location by Ron (via phone)...I think Ron led Tommy to believe that they were all trying to help Misty out. which is why there was no clear answer as to what the call was about around 9pm. Problem is Tommy knows nothing factual about before and after the clean-up/disposal....Tommy could not tell his part of the crime because 1. he didn't know exactly how Haleigh died and where she ended up (her final resting spot), therefore knowing he could not lead LE to Haleigh's body even if he wanted to, and 2. If he told his part of the story about moving Haleigh's dead body somewhere else, he knew many other questions would follow that he had no answer for. like how did Haleigh die, where is she now? And that's exactly what happened after Tommy had his "godly moment" and told LE about the dock because is participation only included taking a dead Haleigh to the dock. And I believe that's why we also seen Misty at the dock...Tommy told LE Misty gave him the instruction to do so. I believe that's why the Croslins had to come up with with their own cover story for this part....hence, the JO story....Tommy starting throwing out all these stories in an attempt to explain his part of the crime. In his attempt he had to try and explain the who, what, when, why, how, and where. Now, I believe that Tommy knew first hand the what, when, and where: referring to his part in this, which is incriminating enough. He knew Haleigh had died, hours before the 911 call, and he was instructed to take Haleigh to the dock...but he does not know or was lied to about the who, why and how. That's why we heard about Jo, the gun, and Haleigh being taken because of the gun.
LE wanted the whole story from Tommy, something that he did not have, so he made up most of it..because he had already opened up to some involvement, KWIM? IMO, Tommy only knew what Misty had told him regarding the rest of the story....As time past, I think Tommy started to doubt whether Misty was the main one responsible and that she was possibly covering for Ron. Tommy stated this in a few of the jailhouse recordings. I also think when Tommy started to put it together...he received threats and a dead rat in his mailbox. I believe that not only had he began to figure some things out...so did Timmy and he took his family and left Satsuma. That's why Tommy said he felt his sister had him caught up in this mess. If you think about it....she did. That's why Tommy can't say for sure that Ron is the main one responsible. Would Tommy cover for Ron? Is a question I hear often on here....truth is IMO, Tommy thought he was in this for his sister not Ron....so him covering for his sister made him also seem to be covering for Ron. but I don't think that's the case. IMO, had Tommy known that all of this was because of Ron or any other Cummings, he would have NOT helped Misty in any way concerning Haleigh. So Tommy, Misty, Timmy, and Ron (via phone) is who I think is apart of this. Although, Misty and Ron are on my who's responsible list.
Who did the disposal/burial? IMO, this is where the Cummings clan take over. and I believe they retrieved Haleigh from the dock and buried her underground somewhere close to that area...I believe they kept Haleigh in this area simply because Tommy had already admitted to taken her there and being told to do so by Misty...so Misty also knew about the dock. It would still point the finger at Tommy and Misty, if Haleigh had been found there, KWIM? As far as the disposal/burial...IMO, that would be Teresa, GMSykes, and/or Ron. It was their attempt to honor Haleigh and give her a proper burial. If we consider Ron's alibi, he was at work...that leaves Teresa and GMSykes. I know some may be disgusted by this accusation but I really do believe this...why would they do this? Honestly I can see no other reason but to protect one of their own as being the one responsible for whatever happened to Haleigh...while showing their love to Haleigh...who would they protect? themselves or Ron....that leads me back to who's responsible and all three of them (Ron/Teresa/GMSykes) are on that list. But if we stick with Ron's alibi, that leaves only Teresa and GMSykes physically capable of the handling the disposal/buiral. And before some of you throw tomatoes, it is not too far fetched...when Misty warned them about the dock search...both of these ladies searched the woods for hours...so who's to say they had not done it before? If Haleigh was buried there, there is no doubt that Teresa would tell Ron where Haleigh is.
I don't think that Misty accompanied them to bury Haleigh...and that's why Misty can't lead LE to Haleigh's body either. If she could I think she would've done it long ago. But she can't and IMO, it was planned out that way.
Some of the people involved have limited information but there are a few who knows every detail...IMO, the spotlight has been put on the ones with limited information....including Misty and she's supposedly the "key".
Then we have the overall cover-up:
I believe there was a "round table" discussion
waitasec
as to who was going to say what once the police were brought in. What to say, what not to say, how to act, how not to act, and most importantly the sketchy details of what had transpired the whole day. Now as far as the coverup, some things Misty could not keep straight and often relied on Ron to save her by injecting details that he would have not possibly known if he was at work when it all occurred. like where everybody was sleeping. That tells me that Ron is included in this part of the crime also...Everyone had a story to tell and Ron had the most simple story "I was at work". because he was and LE could prove it. and that built up confidence in Ron...he felt untouchable...but the moment Ron would realize that Misty was not keeping the story straight, either he would straighten it out or remain silent. I didn't have a problem with him remaining silent, it was when he tried to straighten it out, that really bothered me. But what stood out to me is that some of the basic things that Misty should've known for sure if she was there, she did not know...like what Haleigh had on.. because of this I don't think Misty is the "one" responsible and that leaves Ron, GMSykes, Teresa.
Everyone that was involved in the first 3 parts, became part of the coverup. That would be Misty, Teresa, GMSykes, Ron, Tommy, and/or Timmy. Therefore, they could either remain silent and appear to be a non player in this, which I think Tommy and Timmy tried to do....or they could take over the spotlight at times to "deflect", whether it be defending/praising another key player, or screwing with the timeline in some way. Tommy tried to remain quiet but when the spotlight was put on him, he used it to "deflect". Teresa jumped in the spotlight quick...right out the gate..to "deflect"....who then pulled in GMSykes to help "deflect"....and IMO, when things got too hot, Teresa and GMSykes tried to remain silent...like after the drug bust. The Cummings did a "360" on Misty...so why the change of heart? IMO, they knew a few key players had been put in positions where it was "do or die" "talk or walk"....Ron, Misty, and Tommy. and that's why Teresa seems worried and asks Ron if he thinks Misty is going to talk....Ron's response (if completely innocent) should've been about how he hoped that she would talk
so that they could find Haleigh...but instead he warned Teresa that the phone call was being recorded. That told me they both knew why it would not be a good thing for Misty to talk. And they also knew it would not be good for Ron to talk so GMSykes warned him about the snitches in jail.
IMO, there is a cover-up inside of a cover-up, if that makes sense...and that's why LE was having a hard time solving this case. Problem is Tommy's cover up for his part, distorted the bigger picture...the part that included the Cummings. and that's why some people can't see it and don't want to see it. The part that Tommy played was the most gruesome and some people think that the bus stops there...but it doesn't..nor does it stop at Misty...IMO
Ron did not get his hands dirty but he had a hand in orchestrating the cover-up. I do believe this. And out of all the people involved the only real threat to him is Misty. Because she knows enough.
After the dock search....LE said there were multiple persons of interest and one of them was going to be a surprise to everyone. IMO, the surprise POI, is going to be someone who had injected themselves into this case as a supporter of some sort.....trying to appear forthcoming and truthful in the matter. The surprise POI is not going to be someone we have never heard about. IMO, it's going to be someone a part of this case, someone who has tried to appear as an innocent bystander and/or victim. It's not going to be someone who already been put into the spotlight as to having something to do with Haleigh's demise either....like JO.
IMO, the surprise is going to be either Teresa or GMSykes. Ron has received a plea deal for information that he has regarding Haleigh...and it was valuable enough for him to get a deal. So I'm thinking that he may not be "the one' responsible either but assisted in other parts of the tragedy.....so would Ron cover for?? No way would he cover for Misty, nor any of the Croslins....but he would cover for one of his own....Teresa or GMSykes.
I'm going to stop now...sorry for the long post...I hope it came out the way it was intended to. Goodnight all.
JMHO, I think this story has been greatly blown out of proportion – and Misty grabbed on to something Crystal said that Junior said and weaved it into her story and Chelsea is now running it in the direction of Ron’s work-attire. To me it's noise & smoke and Misty can't even remember to fit the couch bouncing into her stories...
