Cousin vs. cousin over Haleigh Cummings' disappearance

Last weekend, a grandmother said, she had to decide which of her grandsons to believe about what happened to Haleigh Cummings.

The first grandson, Hank “Tommy” Croslin Jr., called from jail saying his cousin entered the Satsuma trailer with a knife that night in February 2009 and left with 5-year-old Haleigh.

The other, Joseph Overstreet, says he’s sorry for what the family is going through but swears he didn’t hurt the girl.

Ultimately, Flo Hollars says, she immediately called authorities, spurring a revived search for Haleigh and a quick trip by Putnam County detectives to Nashville, Tenn., to interview Overstreet...

Near the end of their news conference, a reporter told Overstreet she spoke with his grandmother. Immediately, he clenched his fists and walked away from the cameras. His mother followed to console him. She came back a few minutes later, alone.

Misty Croslin, the last person to see Haleigh Cummings before she disappeared in February 2009, was spotted Wednesday at the scene of a search for evidence in the case...

It was unknown what investigators were saying to Croslin at the dock, but from their body language, it appeared intense as they pointed to the murky water. At one point, Croslin covered her face with her hands as detectives spoke to her. She spent only a few minutes at the dock before a female detective slowly walked her back to an unmarked patrol car.

Lead brings new search for Haleigh on St. Johns
http://www.news4jax.com/video/23145771/index.html very interesting video of former FBI agent Steve Brown who has been working with Crystal Sheffield and claims to have solved the case on Monday. I hope he has. .
.
Now, I'm not defending Misty, but I must point out:
.
Even in the early interviews Misty gave, she says quite a few times that Joe could be responsible. At the beginning in an interview with Matt Lauer in front of the tent camp, she said "no, I'm not at all sure he had nothing to do with it."
.
She said he had been there that day with Tommy, she said he had been a criminal all his life.
.
Misty said he had "tried to mess with her when she was 13."
.
It was she that brought up the original and second stolen gun stories, and the "dream" of seeing Joe in the doorway with Haleigh.
.
Plus, Chelsea said he had taken her van that night, parking it differently than she had left it and that he slept in his clothes, which was unusual for him.
.
It was law enforcement that kept saying he was cleared.
.
In a jail phone call with her mom she says "I've told them all I know and they just don't listen."
.
Add in the fact that he left the morning that the news was breaking that Haleigh was missing. Planned or not, it seems odd he would leave at that time--like he didn't want to be interviewed--and did indeed avoid that until authorities in Tennessee interviewed him.
.
The problem for Misty as I see it is, who knew which statements were true, when she couldn't tell the same story twice?
.
Another report from a neighbor of the current search at Shell Harbour Way, east of 309, was that LE is asking if anyone has information on a 1990's Chrysler van...
.
And who drove a 1990's Chrysler Town & Country minivan?

.Right: a map from Google Earth that shows the area of the current search in proximity to 130 Magnolia St, Satsuma, a house that Hank Sr and Lisa Croslin were owners of until February of 2009. It is .3 miles. The entire Croslin family would have been familiar with that boat dock.

SATSUMA, Fla. -- Deputies from four counties and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement were searching the St. Johns River south of Satsuma Tuesday, and authorities confirmed the search is connected to the Haleigh Cummings investigation.

Putnam County Sheriff's Office Lt. Johnny Greenwood said the search was prompted by one of over 5,000 leads received by the Putnam County Sheriff's Office since the then-5-year-old girl disappeared from her bed in her father's mobile home 14 months ago.

Casey Anthony Document Dump April, 2010

The Prairie Chicken
April 11, 2010

Below I've pasted some links to the letters so loudly hailed in the past week between Casey Anthony and Robyn Adams in the early months of Casey's incarceration at the Orange County jail.

Casey writes in an immature 'double-bubble' script that makes it hard to read at times. Any of the good information is in the links below, but what I noticed in reading through her letters was that when Jesse Grund was interviewed, he told Yuri Melich that Casey would morph into what ever person she needed/wanted to be.

He said that when she was with him and trying to win over his parents she was heavy with faith and gods love. With Tony she was totally into hip-hop or screech or what ever that music is called now.

Here--knowing Robyn is religious--Casey goes on and on like a Sunday School teacher. She says she wants to start an RV ministry together and travel the country, those two and Robyn's kids. But then she also says they should get a house together, where Casey's #1 must have is a king size bed, and then there is the sport's bar Casey wants to open.

So, Jesse is right. Casey was trying hard to morph into Robyn's world, but the materialism gave her away.

Also hilarious was Casey complaining about the clothes her mother brought her. Her mom has no control over how fat Casey's ass is getting. She probably expects some new items. Maybe some spring ensembles.

I still want to see Mallory Parker's interview. The fact that she has not been mentioned at all tells me she is one the prosecutions secret/surprise witness. Mark my word.

Parents of Mitrice Richardson continue to pressure Malibu Sheriff's Department about inconsistent stories, stonewalling and failing to investigate

Booking Cage Video of Missing Woman Generates New Family Concerns

Mother Demands Information on Deputy Apparently Exiting Station When She Did

April 1, 2010

Malibu Surfside News

malibusurfsidenews.com page 7

Malibu--Mitrice Richardson, 24, disappeared after a Malibu restaurant incident led to her being booked on two misdemeanor charges at the Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station on Sept. 16, 2009.

Richardson, a Cal State Fullerton honors graduate, was released from Lost Hills shortly after midnight the next day with no money or cell phone. Her purse was in her impounded car in the Malibu tow yard...

For six months, those in charge of the LA County Sheriff's office at Lost Hills have been caught in several blatant lies, one being that there was no video of Mitrice Richardson that night at the station. In the excerpt below we find a very BIG lie--not only was there video, but:

"On Monday, March 29, Latrice Sutton Mitrice's mother, and her close friend and the young woman’s college mentor, psychologist Ronda Hampton, were among the small group shown an
approximately two-hour tape, the existence of which was first adamantly denied by the LASD, but is now reluctantly acknowledged.

.

In a conference call with the Malibu Surfside News on Tuesday, Sutton contended that the video 'supports her theory that [sheriff’s] officers could very likely be involved in my daughter’s disappearance.'

She says, 'Two minutes after the jailer walked back from letting Richardson out the station’s side door, an officer in uniform went outside the station.' Sutton thinks he might have offered
her a ride back to her car, but...'

.

...Another aspect of the viewing that disturbs Sutton is that she says she was told by Lt. Michael Rosson, now the lead LASD investigator on the case, that the reason her daughter had to be taken to Lost Hills is she had no identification, but the booking slip indicates she had her California’s driver license that was returned to her after the booking process was completed.

.

But what the women describe...that was spotted by Sutton’s nephew, Jonathan Sutton, 'Who noticed that as the tape finished rolling and everyone’s attention was focused on Rosson, a
uniformed deputy can be seen exiting the station right after Richardson left.'
.

They asked that the tape be shown again, and those present say, 'There is no doubt that is what is on the tape minutes after [Richardson] was released.' Since that is not a shift time change, they are interpreting this ominously.

Sutton is now aggressively asking that the arresting deputies and all personnel at the station that night be investigated. Hampton added there appear to be what she calls 'blips' in the tape, which she thinks indicate editing.
.

The videographer...was not allowed to film the video with his equipment."

...Corrections employee Silvia Hernandez was suspended with pay on March 22, although an Orange County Jail spokesman declined to give the reasons for the action. WFTV-Ch. 9 is reporting that Hernandez was suspended because she helped Anthony and another inmate communicate through letters...

In March, Hernandez was interviewed as part of the Anthony case, according to documents released by the Orange-Osceola State Attorney's Office.
.
...A judge banned the release of the letters until at least next week to give her defense attorneys time to review them and prepare any objection to making them public.

Kayleah Wilson, 12, Missing Since Sunday from Greeley Colorado

Kayleah Wilson, Not Seen Since Sunday When She Went to a Birthday Party
abcnews.go.com
April 2, 2010
Authorities Say They Are Re-Interviewing People Who Might Have Information About Kayleah's Whereabouts
By EMILY FRIEDMAN
.
The FBI has joined the search for a missing 12-year-old Colorado girl who vanished on her way to a friend's birthday party. The agency sent 15 detectives to Greeley, Colo., to look for Kayleah Wilson, Dave Joly of the Denver field office said. "When it involves a child, we're there," Joly said, adding that the Greeley Police Department requested the extra help and expertise...
.
Kayleah was reported missing by her mother, April Wilson, when she never came home Sunday evening from a birthday party that was supposed to end by 7 p.m. Police, who have few leads, say Kayleah never made it to the birthday party.
.
"We do not believe Kayleah ran away. There is nothing to indicate she did." Authorities are also reportedly questioning the 17-year-old boyfriend of Kayleah, of whom her mother told ABCNews.com she did not approve...Kayleah's ex-boyfriend is being questioned but is cooperating with police and has not been named a person of interest.
.
Kayleah, who is in sixth grade at Brentwood Middle School, was last seen wearing a white-and-pink shirt over a white tank top, blue jeans and white and red shoes. She is described as being 5 feet 1 inch, and approximately 145 pounds with brown eyes and brown hair.
.
Wilson said her daughter left at 3:40 p.m. Sunday for the party, which was just a few blocks away...
.
The eight-block area where Kayleah would have walked to get to the party is well-populated and safe, according to authorities, who are still looking along side a busy highway that runs behind her home.
.
Wilson said her daughter is a typical preteen who has a crush on one of the singers from the folk band Celtic Thunder. On the morning of the day she disappeared, Wilson said her daughter had gone to church with her and had been happy during a lunch at a local restaurant with her grandmother...
