A private investigator and bondsman related to the disappearance of Haleigh Cummings was arrested and charged with false imprisonment Friday.

William Eugene Staubs, 51, of Weston, Fla., is accused of taking Daniel Everett Snodgrass, 51, from his Satsuma home against his will on March 20.

Staubs, also known as “Cobra,” had been working closely with attorney Kim Picazio, who represents Crystal Sheffield, the mother of Haleigh Cummings. Haleigh has been missing since February, and was last seen in her Satsuma home.

Haleigh Cummings, 5, was reported missing on Feb. 11.

It all started when Snodgrass was arrested and charged with sexual battery of a child under 12. Snodgrass filed a complaint saying that Staubs called him out of his home on a loudspeaker with a siren on.

According to a news release, Snodgrass told Detective Ken Taylor that Staubs told Snodgrass he was revoking Snodgrass’ bond, threw Snodgrass to the ground, handcuffed him and forced him into Staubs vehicle. Staubs then reportedly drove away from the residence headed towards Palatka, according to the release. After driving a short distance and making several telephone calls, Staubs reportedly turned around, drove Snodgrass back to his residence and released him, the news release said.

Jail officials said that Snodgrass had been bonded out of jail when the incident occurred.

Staubs is being held on $5,004 bond at the Putnam County Jail.

The Haleigh Bug Foundation

will be at this year’s Catfish Festival in Crescent City, passing out flyers with the missing 5-year-old’s picture.

“Haleigh has been missing since February 9th, and I want to keep her picture in everybody’s heads,” said Debbie Huddleston.

“My main focus is Haleigh and finding out where she is…it’s been too long and it’s too frustrating.”

Huddleston says she spent days on the phone with the festivals organizers trying to get permission to walk in Saturday’s Catfish Festival Parade,. At first, she says they were reluctant because the deadline had passed to register. Then on Wednesday, the organizers said it would be fine for them to walk.

“That’s all I want them to do is see Haleigh, that’s the main focus…keep Haleigh in the spotlight,” said Huddleston.

Next stop, says, Huddleston will be the Putnam County Raceway where the organizer there has agreed to donate the night’s proceeds to the Haleigh Bug Foundation. Then on to the Green Cove State Fair. She wants to hopefully set up a booth where volunteers can pass out flyers.

“Anyone that wants to is welcome to come down here and share information, come down and show their support,” said Jeremiah Ragan, a family friend.

The foundation is called “The Haleigh Bug” foundation. When Haleigh was a baby, her mother would call her “Haleigh Bug”. Now, the name serves as a reminder that the little girl may be gone, but not forgotten.
