Psychic believes Haleigh Cummings will be found alive and well


Haleigh Cummings

Another ‘psychic’ is claiming he knows what happened to Haleigh and that she will be found on Tuesday, Feb. 24.

Bob Caterino’s blog alleges Misty Croslin, 17, “would sneak out… in the name of fun, and always come home before…” Ronald Cummings, Haleigh’s father, would return home from work.  Croslin is Cumming’s live-in girlfriend.

“Earlier that morning, the seventeen year old has a relative over.  He stole something from the home and the small childs [sic] father would discover it missing.  They argued and the relative would walk away angry…” writes Bob.

According to the blog, this relative waited until Cummings was at work and Croslin left the home to abduct Haleigh from her bed for revenge. 

Bob also believes, “The relative is trying to sell the child… The girl will be found and all will get what is coming to them.”

Haleigh has blond hair, brown eyes, and is 3 feet tall.  Anyone with information regarding Haleigh Cummings should contact the Putnam County Sheriff's Office at 386-329-0800.

    Geez....a real no brainer. 99% of this stuff this guy is spouting has been VOICED in he news for days now. Hey, is this "psychic" from Macclenny? If so you may have misunderstood how he represented himself as there is a BIG hospital right down the road a stretch from Haliegh's Mom's family -- the Northeast Florida State Hospital --a psychiatric hospital. Are you guys sure this guy didn't describe himself as "psychotic" instead??? Maybe the voices told him what to say.

    Thanks Kim, I am sure your hope will be added to the hope of many. I always admitted I am a nut but this is not about you nor I now is it? Many wonder why the real mother lost her kids. Ron, good old Ron went to the courts for custody and gave them a wrong adress for mom and she was never notified as to a court date. He is sneaky but does know all the rules of child services now doesn't he. The child will be found and if I am wrong, so be it at least I tried. Kim, I may have meant side kick. i stand by my word. I wonder why the guy in the Anthony case was snooping around that crime scene before a body was found. I wrote about that also. My deadline is midnight tonight and Kim, your key is where you left it, on the table in the kitchen.

    I don't believe in all the psychic BS but I hope he's right. As far as people saying Misty needs to "rot in hell", remember she's a 17 year old girl who has been sexually abused and is in a relationship with a man in which the relationship is statutory rape. She's also taking on responsibility which a 17-year old doesn't have the mindset for. Ron Cummings should be at fault for being a sexual predator in his own right, and leaving his children in the care of a minor, who he himself is abusing, shows great lack of morals and neglect towards his children. I'd like to slap the judge that gave him parental control over his children.

    I hope and pray Haleigh is found soon but my "psychic feelings" are opposite of Mr. Caterino's. Somebody had the eye for this child and waited for the right moment. Whether the girlfrind was home in bed or not did not matter to them. Sometimes it's easier to do a deed like this when all are home and sleeping. The suspect stopped long enough to remove Haleigh's top? Doubtful. The girlfriend probably doesn't remember what Haleigh was wearing. Mr. Cummings certainly leaves alot to be desired and I hope he'll change some of his negative ways when this is all said and done.

    There's been a lot of talk about the sex offenders in the Haleigh Cummings investigation. Some of these sex offenders were convicted of the same thing Ronald Cummings is doing with 17-year-old Misty Croslin. Why is it a crime for them and not a crime for Ronald Cummings?

    KIM: why are you so bitterly impassioned toward the psychic? I mean, whether he turns out to be right or wrong does not add or subtract from your life in any way does it? You can always ignore what you don't want to believe, can't you? Exchanging thoughts, ideas, feelings, theories, etc., contributes to the education and growth of most people, but you don't have to become vindictive in the process.

    Thanks for your reply Bob. I live within the Northeast Florida and am very familiar with the proceedings of court custodies as worked in that area. The excuse of having the wrong address is that -- an excuse, a justification. Her information she should have kept current with the Clerk of Court in her area so she was responsibile for that. This case is full of justifications and excuses. Both parents have skeletons, as most people do. I do not believe that she will be found today. I hope I am wrong, but am not and have my own beliefs/personal reasons for stating as such.
    If Crystal and Sheila had so many misgivings about Ron's parenting there was plenty of time in the past 3 yrs that he had primary custody for either of them to petition the court with sound proof. When they could they called DCF which resulted in no avail to their statements of supposed abuse/neglect. Dig deeper. Become familiar with the laws in Florida before any reasonable statement of conclusion are drawn against Ron. But the bottom line is that this young girl is missing for whatever reason and needs to be found. But I do not believe it will be today. Not yet. The negativity has to clear. Every time Sheila surfaces there is noothing but turmoil.

    I am shocked that being an attorney you'd publish a psychic's premonition that doesn't even ring true. People don't steal children out of revenge and then bring them back two weeks later because kidnapping is a felony. Hailey knows the cousin so she'd tell he was the one who did it even if he lets her go. She has been gone two weeks now and the police have known about the cousin since day one so if he had her they would have found her. Plus, Haleigh's picture has been all over the Internet and national TV and news outlets. Anybody can call themselves a psychic and make up any story. Just because this so-called psychic wants to believe in happily ever after this is rarely the outcome of a child abduction. Of course, everyone wants any kidnapped child to turn up well and alive. But believing a psychic is not realistic.

  • Sally 2 years ago

    Kim, you are right. This psychic sounds laughable. Is he related to Leonard Padilla? Remember the bounty hunter with the black hat rode into Orlando announcing that Casey Anthony misplaced her toddler and told whoever had the child to take her to a drug store and they wouldn't be prosecuted. Bob Caterino is another fraud who wants his 15 minutes of fame. Shame on you for giving it to him. He is a dreamer like those on the Caylee Anthony blogs who claimed Caylee was sold and living happily ever with a nice couple. We all hope Haleigh too doesn't turn up dead like Caylee did. People don't even attempt to sell kidnapped children when the FBI and law enforcement all over the world, plus citizens are looking for her. It doesn't make sense. Every time someone says they looked in their crystal ball and saw Haleigh, I hope you don't publish it. The truth is no one knows what happened to Haleigh but the person who abducted her.

SO NO, UNFORTUNATELY THAT IS NOT-HER AGE THAT IS, , AT LEAST WAS NOT THEN A MAJOR FACTOR.
    REALIZE THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A WHOLE DIFFERENT CULTURE AND SOCIETY HERE, AS FAR AS THE KEY PLAYERS IN THIS CASE ARE CONCERNED. THE NORM FOR THESE FOLKS AND WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE IN THEIR CIRCLES AND EVEN SOCIEYT IS NOT WHAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED APPROPRIATE IN OTHER AREAS OR OTHER CULTURES OR SOCIETIES. FLORIDA IS A STATE WHERE IF YOU ARE A 3RD COUSIN YOU CAN MARRY ANOTHER 3RD COUSIN. THAT IS NOT A NORM BUT IN SOME AREAS IT DOES HAPPEN. SO THAT IS WHY SO MANY OF THESE PLAYERS HAVE SAME LAST NAMES, FAMILIES BEING SO CLOSELY RELATED. IT IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT SOCIETY AND CULTURE AND IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN EXPOSED TO IT AS I HAVE ALL OF MY LIFE THEN IT CAN BE HARD TO UNDERSTAND.

    Kim, your point is well taken and I understand what you are saying. I was just trying to point out that it muddies the waters (dilutes your point) when/if insults are hurled and used as part of a debate. Respectful comments often times add credibility and due consideration. Bob may very well be wrong. I'm just trying to figure out what is so different about Bob voicing his 'gut feeling' or expressing his theory just like so many others have already done, including yourself, except that an article was written about him here and that article was prefaced with the term 'psychic'. I'm curious, if not for the term psychic, would you have the same reaction? And who is Sheila?

  • Kim 2 years ago

    Viking-Thanks for your reply. Sheila is the mother of Crystal the mother of Haleigh;

    I think it would better if Bob describes himself as a spirtual person than a psychic. True psychics do not act in this way and they do not proclaim to the world their titles with no true background. When people proclaim to be such those of us that truly are gifted, it hurts our purpose.

    Kim, I agree it is cruel to spread false hope and accuse innocent people under cover of a psychic vision. I suspect Bob thought his theory would be more believable if he called it a psychic vision. The police cleared the cousin on Saturday. Haleigh was not found today. These theories that a kidnapper would steal a child out of revenge because of a fight with the father and try to sell a child is silly. When a child is missing, the authorities use at family first, then pediophiles. These people were not rich so she wouldn't have been kidnapped for a ransom. I think it is best that we keep our accusations and theories to ourselves and just watch the news and see what the authorities come up with. They are investigating the case and have facts we don't have to make a reasonable conclusion.

    Hi Sandy, thanks for the reply. I’m with you all the way. I get up every morning, get my coffee and search the internet for any updates in the event Haleigh was recovered during the night. I’ve been hopeful everyday, but Bob’s situation yesterday – really the reaction to it - provided a little break from such a profoundly sobering issue. I DO wish law enforcement would be a little more forthcoming as to the progress in the case in order to quash rumors and innuendo and to maintain public interest. I’m sure they have their reasons, but without official information public interest tends to wane after a while. Maybe I am not watching or reading in the right places, but I’ve hardly heard a peep out of law enforcement and when I have, it’s not much of anything new. Kind of disappointing...

    Hi Sandy-
    The case of missing Haleigh Cummings is so very sad. My heart goes out to her and her family. As a professional psychic I am disturbed by Bob Caterino's posting of his psychic impressions on this case on his blog. I have worked with law enforcement and family of the missing for twenty years. These cases are highly confidential in nature. Unless I have been contacted directly by the law enforcement agency involved I will not work the case. This is the way that ethical psychics proceed when it comes to missing persons cases. Posting psychic impressions on a blog for anyone to see is ethically wrong and makes me question what Mr. Caterino's intentions were? Perhaps to draw attention to his blog? They were obviously not for the good of this tragic family. A psychic that publicly comments on the outcome of a case that has such massive media attention cannot possibly be making an intuitive statement. Any outside info on a case such as a news report, a tv show, etc.. prevents a psychic from getting an intuitive or clear reading, untainted by outside sources. Psychics have been invaluable to law enforcement over the years in solving crimes, however, predicting publicly the outcome of a case is turning the work that real psychics do into a carnival sideshow. Very disappointing.

    Kathleen, I am more concerned that Cindy Adams, a crime reporter, would report what Bob said than Bob's nonsense on his own blog. Why is what a psychic says news unless he is hired by the police to find Haleigh? Miss Adams should have researched Bob before she referred to him as a psychic. She should also have known from her news sources that the cousin had been cleared by police last Saturday. Although, Bob Caterino called his blog a psychic reading, I doubt if he even knows what that means. It was nothing but a rehash of speculation and news stories that he had read and then his own fantasy that the cousin is selling a child whom the whole nation is looking for and she will be found by midnight Feb. 24. It is nothing but wishful thinking. The media should be more responsible than this.

    Unfortunately the media jumped to conclusions yesterday regarding Crystal. Shortly after reporting that she had disappeared, they finally got ALL their facts together in this instance and reported them accurately. I’m sure everyone following the case knows by now that Crystal had a doctor’s appointment and that’s where they eventually met up with her to collect her DNA. Except for the media trying to sensationalize it, that’s all there is to it. Afterwards, Crystal was back at the family camp and gave an interview to dispel inaccurate rumors that had surfaced.

    Law enforcement, although staying tight-lipped, showed their cards last night by searching through the dumpster. If they had any concrete leads or evidence as to where Haleigh could be (dead or alive) they wouldn’t even have brought out the dogs again. They are in a phase of wrapping up the investigation – going back and filling in the blanks, crossing their I’s and dotting their t’s. Very disappointing. Someone knows what happened to Haleigh and apparently the only way law enforcement is going to find out is if someone who knows calls in a tip.
