Hank C. Jr. (Misty's Brother)

HOT DIGGITY...HALLELUJAH...CUMMINGS on their way down...JMO

What does Tommy getting thrown in jail for grand larceny have anything to do with Ronald going down?

 

[TxLady2]

Breaking your comments down one by one...

I don't think he "entered" the vehicle, but rather that he is alleged to have put his hand or hands inside the vehicle.

Ron did not enter private property. The van was on private property and they had been asked to remove themselves and their van from that property.

As for them being in the "process of leaving"...are you saying they were stuck in mud or without keys or something? I never heard the vehicle was moving and understood it was stationery.

If he had only put his hands inside the vehicle he would not have been arrested and charged with burglary, IMO.

They had got into the van, preparing to leave... not sure if the van had been started or not. I don't understand your question about being stuck in the mud or without keys. Whether it was started, already moving, or had not been put into gear, it doesn't matter. Ron got into the van from the passenger side and hit Tommy several times. What's so difficult to understand about that?

 

[alwaysonmymind]

Why would he?

Tommy needs an attorney.

Just thinking maybe he's the attorney that overheard Ron tell Tim about putting the rat in Tommys mailbox.

The fact Hank Jr. didn't even try to defend himself speaks volumes to me. I'm curious why you think he is such a good guy?

I dont' know that he is a good guy at all. I dont know a lot about him and haven't seen him in interviews etc.

However, in this instance, I don't think it makes sense (to me) for him to roll up on Sykes house for no reason.

MOO

the comment was re the cummings---Misty is now a Cummings and if she allowed these bad people around Ron's kids....sheesh...it does point back to Ron's POOR judgment, don't you think?

 

[Whisperer]

RC has had somebody take out an injunction on him for domestic violence. Seems like he intimidated the heck out of her and she had to drop it.

RC may not have an arrest for DV but he has had priors for assault. Oh, excuse me he did have an arrest on that injunction but he forced the petitioner to drop it or she would never see her kids.

 

[cajun]

Not sure. Why does anybody want/need a gun?

I have them for protection. I will never be a victim.

 

[Whisperer]

I think it is time to get away from this thread.

 

[TxLady2]

ITA. And it seems lots of people are conveniently forgetting that the Court ordered Tommy to stay away from Misty (as per the PRO). It seems the Court believed Misty over Tommy on that point and I will go with the Court's findings on that point.

I have family members and friends show up at my door all the time, uninvited. I dang sure don't accuse them of trespassing!! Even if I don't like them.

Misty obviously changed her mind about leaving with them, or Ron changed it for her. Once they got there, it erupted into a fight. Misty lies!

Whether it was started, already moving, or had not been put into gear, it doesn't matter. Ron got into the van from the passenger side and hit Tommy several times. What's so difficult to understand about that?

They were asked to leave the property...they were still on the property and I've seen no evidence they were trying to drive the van away. As I said, it's not like they had no keys or were stuck in mud....so why were they still there? When they saw Ron coming towards them, why didn't they just drive away? Sounds like some serious provocation on their part to me. I would be furious if people were asked to leave my property and rather than doing so, they sat in a parked car on my property. What additional "preparations" do you think they needed to make? Seems to me turning the key in the ignition and putting their foot on the gas was all they needed to do to leave...what's so difficult to understand about that?

 

[TxLady2]

I'm not at all sure why you post the "carry on" comments when someone points out you are wrong on something.

If you think the PRO relates to some other incident, please let us know what you think it is.

The Court granted the PRO....no stretching needed.

ETA. re the "carry on"...this is not the army and I don't think it appropriate for posters to order other posters to do things.

Because the PRO was for Misty saying he came at her and hit her twice. In the initial report she told the officers she got in the middle of the fight and got punched accidentally. That PRO had NOTHING to do with trespassing, because there was no charge for trespassing.

Throwing it out there. As someone who (in another lifetime, it feels like now) turned my back on my family, friends and anyone else who got in the way of my true love abuser of a boyfriend, I can tell you that for the first time in my life I felt like a grown up. I had my own place, (BIG deal to me as a teenager) could come and go as I pleased, could party at will, and so many other reasons that made perfect sense at the time, but now know were juvenile, destructive and just plain stupid. I got the hell beat out of me, never pressed charges because I knew he would be in trouble and gone for a day or so and due to my unbelieveably low self esteem, thought he might not want me anymore when he got out and where would I go? SO, I stayed and took the abuse, and stuck up for him every chance i got and clung to him like my life depended on it. I didnt want to go back home..I could go on, but the point is, IMO Ron is abusive, I see it all over him. Doesnt mean he did anything to Haleigh, but I'd bet the farm he knows he has complete control over Misty and there isnt a damn thing she will do about it. Isolation from family and friends is a classic sign of an abused person. A loving person would urge the family of the person he loved to reconcile. It is to his advantage to divide and conquer. JMOJMOJMOJMO

To me that is fairly clever.

Say she was hit by her brother so any bruises she has from Ron are explained away. KUDOS.

Also Misty is a liar imo. So her "they were uninvited" doesn't mean beans to me really.

MOO

Funny, ain't it. Folks are ready to throw her under the bus and call her a liar six ways to Sunday... but in this one incident, she's telling the absolute truth... even though the story she told the officers and the story she told the judge are different.
GMAB. She got that RO by default, because Tommy said the heck with her, and wants nothing more to do with her.

 

[kellync]

I apologize. I was merely trying to possibly explain the reasons that the family stayed in the driveway. They wanted to give their family member ample time to leave if she wanted to. I worded it wrong, and for that I am sorry. But not for my post prior.

 

[tehcloser]

Did Tommy tell you that? Or is it just an opinion that you are posting as fact?
Many people plead no contest to charges....it doesn't necessarily mean they are innocent of those charges, in fact, it usually means quite the opposite.

IIRC........he said let her have it, he was moving anyway.........nothing about no contest.

So....you believe they deliberately stayed there when asked to leave?

 

[SeriouslySearching]

I am delighted to see them arresting Tommy for whatever reason! I see the bond is set high enough that I doubt they will be coming up with the funds to get him out anytime soon.

I believe now they have him in jail maybe they can put the pressure on him to confess to what really happened that night to Haleigh as I think he is the real "key".

I thought the RO dictated he could not own or have guns in his possession? (If the gun story is even true...considering the "source".)

IMO they wanted to give their family member every possible second they could spare to get her in the car and get her out of there. If it was my daughter, I would have had to be taken away in handcuffs. Yes, to answer your question

GmaS said she ordered them in the van, and in the meantime, Ron comes running out and opens the door and starts punching Tommy. Things like that can take only mere seconds.
We really don't know that they just sat there, not moving, for more than a second or two. I'm sure that Ron could manage a distance of quite a few feet with one long running leap, and the car could have been right up close to the house.
Years ago, I saw an incident where a 17 y.o.'s mother and stepfather were in their vehicle about to drive out of the driveway, and the boy kicked out the storm door, leaped up on the hood and kicked their windshield in, when he had been sleeping off a drunk only minutes before that. So it can happen in the blink of an eye, especially when a person is angry.

He did not contest it, no matter what explanation he put forward for not doing so.
