Haleigh Cummings

Police Have 'New Leads' in Disappearance of Missing Florida Girl Haleigh Cummings

Everyday there is something new that is coming out in this case. It just breaks my heart to keep hearing new evidence, yet they are not getting anywhere and they still have no found this beautiful little girl Haleigh Cummings.


Police said they have several new leads in the disappearance of a 5-year-old Florida girl after interviewing individuals they had missed during earlier sweeps of her neighborhood. Capt. Steve Rose, of the Putnam County Sheriff's Office, declined to describe the information Tuesday in the case of Haleigh Cummings. "We were able to come up with several good leads that we are following up on today," Rose told reporters. "At this time we cannot discuss the nature of those leads." Rose said police did a second neighborhood canvass Monday evening and got more information from people they hadn't previously talked to. They also set up a vehicle checkpoint."It's possible those are people we missed the first time — new people, new information," Rose said. "We’re still looking at everybody as a suspect at this time."
I have such a huge love for children and I have spend most of my life around young children as well. I do a lot of nannying and babysitting and I just got understand how that girl could not have work up to someone in the house or the girl making even making a fight. Also it upsets me to think that the story of the dad and his so called girlfriend keeps changing about who was sleeping where.

Police had never been called to the home in the past, but there have been investigations by a social services agency involving Cummings, Croslin and Haleigh and her 4-year-old brother Junior, according to Rose. He hasn't revealed the nature of those cases.
The Florida Department of Children and Families confirmed that the agency "was involved with the family," but wouldn't disclose details, citing confidentiality laws.
In addition to Croslin and Cummings, the child's mother, Crystal Sheffield, also has been questioned in the case.

This story makes me so upset and it’s so hard for me to understand. When I see the story all I can stay to myself is WHY or HOW. This little girl is so innocent and she has lived such a short life and now she is going through this along with her family.

  1. I would have to agree with you on how upsetting these circumstances are. It is horrible to know that there is a littler girl out there with out her family or even possibly dead. I have seen a few things about this story only because I lack the interest of the news, and because it seems like they are so quick to tell you that she is missing and then they pull it on and on for a week until there is some thing else to report on. Haleigh is an adorable girl and she is in my thoughts and prayers. I hope they find her safe and in good keepings.
