The divorce of missing HaLeigh Cummings’ father from Misty Cummings is now final. Ronald Cummings, 25, cited irreconcilable differences in his petition, ending his 7-month long marriage to Misty, 17, according to CNN.
HaLeigh, 6, went missing from her Satsuma, Fla. home in February, while her father was at work and Misty was at home with the girl and her younger brother. Misty claims she awoke in the middle of the night to find the back door open and then discovered HaLeigh was gone.
Investigators have questioned Misty’s story and believe she’s withheld information from them, according to CNN.
In August, the Putnam County Sheriff’s office said, “…the evidence and investigatory effort has minimized the likelihood that HaLeigh’s disappearance is the work of a stranger.” According to CNN, authorities have ruled out Ronald and HaLeigh’s biological mother, Crystal Sheffield, as suspects in the case.
“Investigators believe that Misty Croslin-Cummings continues to hold important answers in the case,” according to a written statement from the sheriff’s office. “She has failed to provide any sort of detailed accounting of the hours during the late evening and early morning of HaLeigh’s disappearance. Furthermore, physical evidence at the scene contradicts Misty’s sketchy account of her evening activities.”
