Press release issued by attorney of Ronald Cummings
In response to today's story in the Florida Times-Union, Greg Kimball, the attorney representing the father of Haleigh Cummings, Ronald Cummings, issued the following press release:
This press release is in response to the Florida Times-Union article of today's date.
Ronald Cummings in the last two months has had to deal not only with the disappearance of his daughter Haleigh, but also false muckraking allegations by attorney Kim Picazio, representing Crystal Sheffield, and Picazio's personal friend "Cobra."
From the time of Haleigh's disappearance, Ronald Cummings was told that his employer was holding his job open. He was told by his employer that he could start back to work on Monday, April 6, 2009. Ronald agreed to this date and was prepared to go into work when he was told on Friday, April 3, 2009 that the offer to return to work was being withdrawn for "abandoning his job."
Ronald expressed his displeasure with the company for going back on its word, but at no time threatened anyone.
This office has referred Ronald to a Daytona Beach law firm that handles labor and employment law.
It should be noted that Crystal Sheffield is currently thousands of dollars in arrears for child support. She has not been gainfully employed in approximately two years. When Crystal and Ronald lived together it was mainly Ronald's grandmother that cared for their children since Crystal was usually watching TV.
This office anticipates providing Department of Children and Families (DCF) with new information on a confidential basis in the near future.
It is ironic that the last Florida Times Union article by Dana Treen on April 5, 2009 bemoaned that the squabbles and personal differences of Haleigh's parents have distracted from the search for Haleigh. The article blamed both sides equally. The article was rebutted in a press release from this office (which is being re-printed and follows this release).
Now Dana Treen wants to wade into personal matters on the side of Crystal Sheffield. Which is it, Mr. Treen?

PRESS RELEASE
April 6, 2009
This press release is in response to the Sunday, April 5, 2009 Florida Times Union article on the Haleigh Cummings case.
The headline of the article was "Family Feud Takes Focus off Search for Haleigh." Both Ronald Cummings, the father of Haleigh, and Crystal Sheffield, the mother of Haleigh, were blamed equally.
The reporter for the Florida Times Union failed to give a proper perspective on this issue.
A few facts need to be clarified:
1. It was Crystal Sheffield who chose to launch a Department of Children and Families (DCF) investigation about Ronald Cummings, as part of preparation for a custody battle over Ronald Cummings, Jr., rather than focus on the search for Haleigh.
2. Crystal Sheffield got attorney Kim Picazio from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to represent her. Attorney Picazio has been on television at every opportunity seeking publicity for herself and about family law issues.
3. Attorney Kim Picazio has admitted on television that the so-called investigator William E. Staubs, who refers to himself as "COBRA," is a personal friend. Cobra arrived in Putnam County from Ft. Lauderdale [sic] shortly after Haleigh went missing and has been feeding information to Picazio and some media.
4. Ronald Cummings had to obtain legal counsel in self defense of the public allegations by Sheffield-Picazio, and also regarding Sheffield-Picazio allegations to DCF.
5. That Kimball & Snider, P.A. only got involved in this case on March 18, 2009, approximately five weeks after Haleigh went missing. Our initial press release (a copy of which follows) of March 19, 2009, in paragraph three (3) stated that Sheffield-Picazio allegations about family law manners were detracting from the search for Haleigh.
6. That Kimball & Snider, P.A. got involved in this case because Ronald Cummings, at the urging of a family member, called our Palatka office. Palatka is about five miles from Satsuma where Ronald resided.
7. Kimball & Snider, P.A. has responded through press releases to rebut and correct Sheffield-Picazio allegations. We have not appeared on national tv or even given any interviews to local media.
8. Kimball & Snider, P.A. has provided information on a confidential basis to DCF and Putnam County Sheriff's Office (PCSO) about this case, and will continue to act responsibly to assist DCF and PCSO.
(Signed)

Haleigh Cummings- Update from TJ Hart
TJ Hart of Sky 97.3 sent in some rough notes about the Haleigh Cummings case. TJ actually left this as a comment, but I think it is worthy of being an article so that more people will have an opportunity to read it. Editor
Thanks, to Simon and the gang for allowing me on Sunday’s webcast.
Here are a few notes from the weekend RE: Haleigh Cummings
REPORTERS NOTES 4/20/09 by TJ Hart
12:05 a.m.
I am chasing down information received at 11:48 pm by phone Sunday referencing a possible BOLO alert for Ron Cummings Sr. who is the father of missing 5-year-old Satsuma girl, Haleigh Cummings.
I was tipped by an informant, who shall be refered to as “Digs,” in Putnam County, FL that a 911 call was made between 9 p.m. and 10 p.m. stating that the father, Ronald Cummings Sr. sent his 4 year-old son, Ron Jr., to the door of his former girlfriend, Amber, in an attempt to lure the child he and Amber produced to come outside.
The information received from my informant also stated that a tall, thin male was also present near Ron Jr.
Our sources says that this was an attempt by Ron to take this child.
It’s been reported that Ronald Cummings Sr. is now behind in his support for that child.
9:35 a.m.
Contact was made with Lt. Johnny Greenwood to verify a BOLO (be on the lookout) for Ronald Cummings Sr. regarding a 911 call Sunday, April 19, at about 9:20 p.m.. The call allegedly from Amber Brooks where sources claim Ron tried to use his son, Ron Jr., to lure the child of Ron and Amber to the door in order to take him.
Lt. Greenwood said he could not verify that action and told me it was the first he’d heard of it.
Greenwood was then asked about Amber Brooks and Christina Rene Prevatt (a.k.a. Nay Nay) being arrested on drug charges. He confirmed the arrests and bookings.
Amber Brooks (DOB 3-29-89) was arrested on charges of possession of cocaine, introduction of contraband into a detention facility and failure to appear. Her bond is set at $2512. Booking time 8:04 a.m. ET.
Christina Rene Prevatt (aka “Nay Nay” DOB 5-30-90) was arrested on charges of possession of cocaine and introduction of contraband into a detention facility. Her bond is set at $2008. Booking time 8:39 a.m. ET.
Prevatt is the woman who introduced Misty Croslin-Cummings to Greg Page for a weekend of drugs and sex the weekend before Haleigh Cummings was taken from her Satsuma home. Misty was the last person to see Haleigh before she was abducted.

COBRA DETAILS THE LAST 24 HOURS!

4/18/09 at Haleigh Bug Headquarters
I visited the Haleigh Bug headquarters late Saturday afternoon on my way back from a conference in Jacksonville, FL earlier in the day.
The purple, one-story Haleigh Bug building is located at 1185 U.S. 17 in Satsuma. It’s named for the nickname used for missing Haleigh Cummings.
It was there I visited with Haleigh’s mother, Crystal Sheffield. Ms. Sheffield had just returned to the area that day before after taking some time to recuperate in Baker County from a small series of seizures.
Crystal appeared to be very tired and her skin appeared to have a grey to yellowish tint, but her resolve to find her daughter remained undetered.
Crystal did not elaborate, but she said she had received some tips on her MySpace page regarding a possible sighting of Haleigh in another state. She told me she passed that information on to law enforcement and her attorney, Kim Picazzio.
If it was possible to witness a person looking both hopeful and sad at the same time, I think I saw it Saturday in Crystal’s face when she told me about the possible sighting. I could tell she felt optimistic about the thought her child is still alive, but also cautious since so many sighting have turned out to be false.
Someone is at the Haleigh Bug Headquarters, 24 hours a day to take calls and tips regarding the search for Haleigh Cummings.
Haleigh Cummings has not been seen since the night of February 9 when her father’s then girlfriend, Misty Croslin, put her to bed.
If you want to donate to the Haleigh Bug Foundation, call (954) 553-6514.
