THE SEARCH CONTINUES FOR HALEIGH

This week authorities are searching the St. Johns River for missing Florida child Haleigh Cummings.  The mud in this river is described as being like pudding, making these efforts extremely difficult.  After more than 15 months, and thousands of cold leads, it appears investigators have solid information leading them to this area.  Investigators took Misty Croslin out of her jail cell and brought her to the river scene at one point, though no word yet on what she was able to provide while there.  Many reports show Misty standing, in handcuffs and plain clothes, pointing to an area in the river.  Authorities indicate Misty’s cousin may have more information about Haleigh, and that he was in the area at the time she went missing, but returned to his home state of Tennessee not too long after.

BACKGROUND:  On February 5, 2009, Haleigh Cummings was snatched from her bed in Satsuma, Florida.  Since that time investigators say they’ve received thousands and thousands of leads on her case, but there’s been no sign of the child.  Haleigh’s father’s girlfriend at the time, Misty Croslin, is the last person to have seen this beautiful child.  Early in the investigation, Misty told police Haleigh was not in her bed around 3 a.m. and when Ronald Cummings, Haleigh’s father, came home from work he made a frantic 9-1-1 call.
