“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.

Your thoughts?

Nashville police and Tennessee Bureau of Investigation agents arrested Lisa Croslin on a fugitive-from-justice warrant on Thursday. She was wanted by Florida authorities on forgery and theft charges.

Lisa Croslin was arrested after an area man told police she had cashed a check using checks stolen from his home.

Croslin is the mother of Misty Croslin, who police say was the last person to see Haleigh Cummings, now 6, when she disappeared Feb. 10 from a mobile home in Putnam County, Fla.

At the time of the disappearance, Misty Croslin was the girlfriend of Cummings’ father. They married about a month after Haleigh’s disappearance.

The Gainesville Sun reported Saturday that authorities in Putnam County are looking for a woman who dropped off a letter at the sheriff’s office that allegedly has information about Haleigh.

Authorities would not reveal the letter’s contents but said it could be “very helpful.”

Lisa Croslin’s arrest is not related to her granddaughter being missing but it is showing a pattern of criminal behavior from many member’s of the family. I’m sure you remember Tommy Croslin, Misty’s brother, being arrested a couple of weeks ago.

According to the Sheriff’s Dept., Marvin Martin, told deputies that he wanted to file charges against Hank Jr. (Tommy) for stealing his .38 caliber Colt revolver.

Tommy and his mother had come into his house to use the phone and Tommy went to the bathroom while his mom called someone. Later, Mr. Martin, who is elderly and legally blind, found the gun missing and knew they must have had something to do with it. The victim called Tommy’s sister-in-law and told her he knew either Tommy or his mom took his gun and he wanted it back or he would involve the police.

A few hours later, Tommy’s mother and dad brought the gun to him. His mother said that he stole it and hid it in the shed behind his house. Mr. Martin said he wasn’t really sure whether it was Tommy or his mother that did it, but he suspected it was Hank.

Sounds familiar doesn’t it? Tommy had stolen Ronald’s gun on or about the night Haleigh went missing and hid it in a culvert.

Ronald Cummings has been arrested over a dozen times with the charges being dropped almost every time. Most likely the fact that his mother works for the police department has something to do with that.

Lots of criminals in little Haleigh’s life, seems it was only a matter of time before something like this happened. She never had a chance.
