Father and Former Stepmother of Missing Girl Arrested for Drug Trafficking

Authorities say the father and former stepmother of Haleigh Cummings have been arrested and charged with trafficking prescription drugs in Putnam County. Haleigh Cummings' disappearance from her father's doublewide trailer last year when she was five made national headlines. There has been no sign of her since she was reported missing.

Twenty-six-year-old Ronald Cummings, who made several television appeals for his daughter's return, and 18-year-old Misty Croslin were among five people arrested in a drug sting. They face a minimum-mandatory sentence of 25 years in state prison for multiple counts of trafficking medical prescription drugs. The month long investigation involved the Putnam County Sheriff's Office, as well as other federal officials.

According to deputy sheriffs, an undercover detective allegedly purchased almost $4000 worth of drugs from Cummings and Croslin, as well as three other people. Croslin faces six counts of trafficking in prescription medication and is being held on $950,000 bail. Cummings faces three counts of the same charge and is being held on $500,000 bail. The other three each face one count and are also being held on bail.

Last October, Croslin was allegedly robbed while attempting to buy drugs in Palatka. After Haleigh Cummings disappearance, she and Ronald Cummings got married, but soon divorced.

If you have been arrested on a drug charge in the Orange County or Orlando, Florida area, or anywhere else in the state of Florida, please contact the experienced criminal defense attorneys at the Umansky Law Firm for an initial consultation.
