1400 block of State Rd 19 is what she reported.

Approximately 30 drive by car.

By boat from point A to point B about a mile from Buffalo Bluff Rd in Satsuma near 202 Green

Authorities are draining a large pond in the Mondex in their search for Haleigh Cummings, the 6-year-old Satsuma girl who vanished in February.

The decision to drain the pond followed two days of searching by police divers.

Removing water will �make the search easier,� said Maj. Gary Bowling, director of law enforcement for the Putnam County Sheriff�s Office.

�We got out here and we determined to do this the best, and really, to lessen the risk to divers, we needed to pump out a large volume of the water,� Bowling said. �We�re going to pump out a majority of the water and take a look and we�ll be back in business.�

Searchers have checked several ponds in the seven months since Haleigh disappeared, but this marks the first time one has been drained.

The Mondex property, southwest of Palatka near State Road 19, is notorious as a party location sometimes drawing large crowds.

They tried to deny it for a long time, but no one fell for it especially after hearing on he scanner "dive team can you hear me", nd all the chatter from locals, they tried to spin it as a training exercise, but I called BS on that ASAP

HH and IM, do you guys remember that we discussed Misty having the kids in the van with the blanket for them to sleep on or something. Could be that she took them to a party in that area.

Nothing official has been released about who did what, and I doubt they have a body after this amount of time, there would be next to nothing left (unless she was in a container of sorts). I wonder if any vehicles were reported stolen that night?????

Yes, very early on due to all the "excessive blanket talk", and very well could have been!

[dsntslp]

How did the cousin get down here?  The one that took the bus home?

I wouldn't put too much stock in the found car yet, cars are dumped in ponds and lakes all the time by kids who steal them to joy ride.

Yea, I know, I was just saying that if Tommy had told them something and they find out its true, they better keep it under wraps until they arrest Misty,    and I dont know....I wonder the same thing, hmmm...or is someone missing a car that they just havent said anything about...

OK~I tried to hang tonight, but after the trip this week and an early game I must crash........night monkeys and God Bless HaLeigh

[darla]

As bad as i hate to..I have to catch a few hours sleep. This crowd will be up at the crack of dawn. Hope everyone can get a little rest.

God Bless you Haleigh !

[higherhopes]

Yea....goodnight Island, Im right behind you.....I just might take a trip tomorrow and so I do need to get some sleep.....if they find anything, I am thinking about going to Satsuma tomorrow so......Im just waiting on whats gonna happen,,,,

[dsntslp]

I wonder if side sonar would be able to find a skull (sry) so small if a body is badly disarticulated.

I also wonder if line searching in the water does not pose the risk of pushing remains into the mud like TM stated he was trying to avoid doing with CA.

[KCJackie]

can some one get a screen shot of the L shaped lake , River avenue & mondetes road

  Is this the right one?

[Mudder]

They mentioned River Ave on the scanner a bit ago, but didn't catch the numbers.
But, apparently, they're still in the area at this hour.

[Desdemona]

Across the river from the trailer.

I hardly ever get up from a sound sleep once I finally get to bed but I was restless.   I searched around for anything new & all I found was this article so far, while I paused for a brief sigh of relief I'm still aggravated with so many conflicting reports, hopefully by tomorrow we will have something a bit more concrete:

Haleigh Cummings Body Not Found; Lake Drained, to Be Searched This Weekend
September 19, 2009 by Carol Bengle Gilbert

The latest news reports out of Palatka, Florida indicate that the body of Haleigh Cummings who disappeared Feb. 10 from her father's Satsuma home in the predawn hours was not found in a lake dredged Friday evening.

Major Gary Bowling of the Putnam County Sheriff's Office told WAWS that a search would be conducted in the area of the drained lake during the weekend.

Bowling also stated that the discovery of a suspicious item during the uprooting of marijuana plants in a field Friday did not relate to the Haleigh Cummings investigation.

Earlier reports by First Coast News Friday repeated the claims of several viewers that Haleigh Cummings' body had been recovered. Haleigh's father Ronald Cummings denied any knowledge of his daughter's body being found when questioned by a First Coast News reporter. Cummings said he had spoken with Haleigh's mother Crystal Sheffield concerning the reports.
PCSO investigators interviewed Misty Croslin Cummings' brother Hank (Tommy) Croslin, Jr. (who was recently jailed on grand theft charges involving the theft of a gun from a neighbor) and 3 other inmates of the Putnam County Jail last night concerning Haleigh Cummings' disappearance. Misty Croslin Cummings, then Ronald Cummings' girlfriend and now his wife, was the last person to see Haleigh before her disappearance.

Investigators denied learning anything about Haleigh's disappearance from Hank Croslin, Jr. when questioned by Channel 4's Jim Piggott Thursday night. Hank's wife Lindsy was questioned by police Friday morning. The sheriff's office described the interviews of Hank and Lindsy Croslin as "nothing out of the ordinary."

The identity of the other inmates questioned and any possible relationship between those interviews and today's draining of a Palatka lake has not been made public.

The search for Haleigh Cummings while unsuccessful in finding the little girl has uncovered baskets upon baskets of Cummings and Croslin family dirty laundry both literally and figuratively, with Hank Croslin, Jr. the latest to be plucked from the pile for public airing.
