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.

Misty Croslin has reportedly written a letter telling what happened to Haleigh

Several sources are reporting that Misty Croslin wrote a letter to a family member revealing what she knows about the night Haleigh Cummings disappeared. The letter is being examined by authorities in Satsuma, Florida for its authenticity and validity.

Will this new evidence finally lead investigators to Haleigh?

Remember when the story broke that Tommy came by and stole a gun? Well now the story seems to be that Tim and Joe, Misty’s cousin, came by to steal the gun but it wasn’t there. Joe got pissed and took Haleigh.

It has also been reported that Misty Croslin’s attorney has known what Misty has been hiding since she was arrested on drug trafficing charges when she sold prescription pain killers oxycodone and oxycoton to an undercover officer.

This is not verified but its being passed around by Art Harris, a freelance reporter that has been covering this case.

“It’s gonna hurt two people”

Six little words blended in to five but maybe the first crack in Misty’s armor. Such a simple sentence but an unbelievably explosive statement.

Newly released jailhouse tapes gives us some insight into what Misty Croslin, the last person to see 5-year-old Haleigh Cummings alive, knows about the night the little girl disappeared.

Misty Croslin is speaking to her sister-in-law Chelsea, she knows she is being recorded so she doesn’t say much. She is speaking of a bounty hunter who has offered to bail her out in exchange for information that will lead him to Haleigh.

Here is what she said:

Sister-in-law: So what, you have things you need to talk to him about?
Misty Croslin: Well yeah, I mean, it’s you know, hard to talk.
Sister-in-law: I know.
Misty Croslin: Yeah. But it’s gonna hurt two people. It’s gonna hurt two people.
Sister-in-law: That we care about?
Misty Croslin: Kinda. One, yeah. And the other, kinda.
Sister-in-law: That I care about?
Misty Croslin: Yeah.
Sister-in-law: Cause I know I don’t give a f**k about Ronald, excuse my language.
Misty Croslin: No, No. No it’s somebody. Yeah, no.
Sister-in-law: It’s not him?
Misty Croslin: No, you just think Chelsea, use your head. And you’ll know.

“just think Chelsea, use your head. And you’ll know.”

I believe Misty Croslin is protecting her brother Tommy Croslin. I have always thought it was pretty obvious that one of these “two people” is Ronald but this gives me some doubts. In the sting video they brought up Haleigh. They had no way of knowing they were being recorded and they spoke like they had no idea what happened to her. I have pretty much ruled out that they acted together at this point.

Tommy left the area immediatley after Haleigh went missing.

“Not Guilty”

Misty Croslin’s Attorney entered a plea of…. drum roll please
\./\./\./\./\./\./\./\./\./\./\ …. not guilty on drug trafficing charges.

Misty has been so forthcoming with information these last 14 months I thought she would admit the drug selling and tell us where the body is.

Tongue in cheek of course.

An attorney for Misty Croslin, the last person to see Haleigh Cummings, said his client is not guilty of drug-trafficking charges.

Croslin’s attorney filed paperwork with her not-guilty plea on Monday in St. Johns County.

Croslin, 18, was babysitting Haleigh more than a year ago when the child vanished from her father’s trailer in rural Putnam County while he was at work.

Raw footage of WESHTV’s interview with Misty Croslin about the Road Rage incident while walking thru the airport.

Action News spoke with the Deputy from the Lake Mary Police Department who was on scene when the women were cuffed. Officer Zach Hudson says the women were cooperative with investigators during the questioning. He says when Misty was put on the ground and cuffed, she looked up at the officer and said, Im Misty Cummings, you might know me.

Officer Hudson says there was no bravado in Mistys voice, and she wasnt acting as though she thought she needed special attention. He says it sounded as though she just wanted the officers to know she was not a threat.

Mistys lawyer Robert Fields tells Action News he believes the 911 caller made up the entire story. He says during the 911 call, the woman told dispatchers the license plate number of the vehicle they were driving. Fields says if the caller was in front of the suspects car, she would never be able to read off the license plate to dispatchers. He believes the caller initiated the call to 911 to report a false claim to get back at Misty and the driver for an earlier altercation on the road.
