Haleigh Cummings:Misty Cummings - Crystal Sheffield and her family have Haleigh Cummings.

Misty Cummings talked candidly on the CBS Early show Friday, but she didn't waste any time pointing fingers at who she thinks knows where Haleigh is. "I feel likeCBS News says Misty Cummings provides new details about the night that Haleigh Cummings vanished in part two of an "Early Show" interview. Misty Cummings was baby-sitting for the child when she disappeared from her father's Satsuma home in February. The Department of Children and Families became aware of the allegations of drug use by Crystal. DCF requested a random toxicology test of Crystal Sheffield, during the course of their investigation, as they found it relevant to investigate Crystals fitness as a parent. At that time, in June 2009, I learned from DCF that Crystals infant daughter, Chloe, not even one (1) year of age, had been born with illegal narcotics in her system due to Crystals drug use during her pregnancy. The DCF caseworker had not informed me of this DCF case against my client, and I had no prior knowledge of the case until that time. DCF dismissed the investigation against Ronald Cummings, without explanation.

I felt as if I was only being told relevant information by the family, after a fiasco had occurred. I could not represent a client who was not being honest with me, and was taking illegal drugs. To make matters worse, In April 2009, Crystal admitted to me that she had taken unprescribed pain medication. Further, her mother, Marie Griffis, reported to me that Crystal had stolen her step-fathers pain medication after he had surgery in April 2009. I was extremely concerned over my clients drug use. Crystal assured me that it was not an addiction, and that it had only taken a few pills due to back pain from an old car accident. In April, 2009, Crystal suffered another seizure, and was taken to the hospital by ambulance. All of these incidents played out loudly in the media. Despite my requests to family and friends to withhold all comments to the media about Crystals seizures, they defied my recommendations. As such, I then was forced to issue numerous press statements regarding Crystals status.

A vindication? I do not think so. A most telling statement comes from William Cobra Staubs:

Kim Picazio and I had conflicts during the case because she adamantly defended her client. During the course of the case, I personally witnessed Crystal Sheffield take illegal narcotics on several occasions. I attempted to tell Kim that her client was doing drugs. Kim Picazio did not want me releasing this information to the public. I confronted Crystals family about her drug use, and they believed she should be put in rehab. I was present at a meeting between Crystal Sheffield and her Father,

Link to latest information on this case, sworn testimony of Kim Picazio lawyer for mother Crystal Sheffield reveals lies and more lies by Crystal Sheffield, her mother and maybe her lawyer as well. Is Kim Picazio trying to protect herself from something by giving such a detailed response including many of Crystal's illegal activities and information that Marie Griffis and Crystal Sheffield were very worried their phones were tapped by law enforcement in the days and months since little Haleigh went missing? Maggie Rodriguez conducted the interview, which concludes Monday. The first part aired this morning.

Also on Monday, Rodriguez will have a live interview with Ronald Cummings, Misty's husband, about her comments. "The Early Show" starts at 7 a.m. on WKMG-Channel 6. CS offered this excerpt from Monday's interview with Misty Cummings:

Rodriguez: "Your brother told police that when he went to the trailer that night, that you were supposedly putting Haleigh to bed -- that you weren't there. Did you go somewhere that night?"

Cummings: "No, I did not. Did not leave my house at all."

Rodriguez: "Why did he tell police you weren't there?"

Cummings: "Trying to get out of jail, that's what I think."

Rodriguez: "So your brother was in jail"

Cummings: "Yeah, he was in jail."

Rodriguez: "Your own brother would betray you like that?"

Cummings: "That's how my family is."
it's on the other side of the family," said Misty.Law Enforcement has said the Ronald Cummings is not a suspect in the taking of Haleigh Cummings. They have also said they are satisfied that he does not know what happened to Haleigh Cummings.

Kim Picazio has made a long statement about Crystal Sheffield-here is the link to that statement

Headline: Misty Cummings " Crystal Sheffield and her family have Haleigh Cummings?" She Never said that. she said they need to look at the other side. She's much more at ease because Ron isn't sitting there telling her what to say.

[DotiBump]

They said they fired him for not coming back to work or calling in. I think that since he was an operator of a crane and there was lots of talk about his drug use.

Who wants that?

[GamertownUSA]

This has nothing to do with the case, but...
