Most people knew that that cinder block might hold a key clue to what happened to Haleigh Cummings. Now WJXT is reporting that two cinder blocks have been pulled from the Saint Johns River in the search for Haleigh Cummings.
The police have announced that Haleigh is dead, and are searching the river for evidence. Multiple persons of interest identified.
Misty Croslin’s grandmother appeared on Nancy Grace saying that Timmy Croslin had called her from jail and said he was in the Cummings home with Misty and Joe Overstreet the night Haleigh went missing. The grandmother also said that Joe had went there to steal a gun and when Misty couldn’t find it he took Haleigh instead.
Apparently Misty confirmed this story fifteen minutes later in a similar conversation with her grandmother. Misty has reportedly said that Joe Overstreet had held a knife to her throat and told her he would kill her if she ever told and she was frightened.
Rumors are spreading that Joe killed Haleigh and tied cinder blocks to her body and threw her in a river near Misty’s parents former home.
This entire story is suspect because Misty has already named Joe over a year ago as someone that might be involved because “he has been a criminal all his life.”
This from the Nancy Grace blog…
Flora Hollars laid out multiple versions she says Misty and Tommy Croslin gave her about the night Haleigh vanished, all of them ending in the little girl’s brutal death. One of them, that a yellow rope was put around Haleigh’s body, a brick tied around the bottom of the other end of the rope and Haleigh thrown into the river.
After we see Misty Croslin on video in handcuffs standing on the dock of the Saint Johns river, investigators reveal Misty Croslin went to the river voluntarily. But what exactly did she tell police? We also learn she’s not the only one who was at the river with cops. Tommy Croslin’s attorney says he was the one who brought investigators to the St. Johns River in the first place, the same spot where unnamed sources say dive teams have been searching for a murder weapon.
We know cops have pulled “items” from the river for testing, but are Haleigh’s remains among them? And are multiple arrests about to go down.
This might very well be the way the crime went down but Misty’s justification that she was scared and didn’t tell is ridiculous. That defense only works to the point that Joe left the home. Was she to scared to tell when she being questioned by the police for countless hours? Did she believe Joe would burst into the police station at any minute and kill her? Would he break into jail where she is currently incarcerated on drug charges and kill her?
The “scared of Joe” defense is likely only a justification to absolve herself and her brother Timmy from any wrong doing in the murder of Haleigh Cummings. They all kept their mouths shut for the past 14 months because the were likely all involved in some way. IMO.
