"Until Haleigh is found either alive, which is what we're praying for, or not, has gone onto heaven, we're going to have hope," family pastor Terry Wright told First Coast News' Erich Spivey.
Wright is one of the few people outside the media who is welcome at the camps of Haleigh's mom and dad. The parents are holding separate vigils each night about a half-mile apart.

Haleigh's Brother Says "Man In Black" Took Her
Tuesday, February 24, 2009 &#8211; updated: 9:09 am EST February 24, 2009

PUTNAM COUNTY, Fla. -- There was a possible new clue in the search for 5-year-old Haleigh Cummings Tuesday morning. The family said Haleigh's younger brother may have witnessed her abduction.
"I want to find my sissy. And he said something about 'the man in black took her,'" said Haleigh's mother, Crystal Sheffield.
The 4-year-old boy gave the description to his mother nearly two weeks after his sister disappeared from her father's Putnam County home in Satsuma on February 9.

Investigators are following up a lead provided by the brother of a missing 5-year-old Putnam County girl that a man came into the room where she was sleeping and took her.
Putnam County sheriff&#8217;s Capt. Dick Schauland confirmed that officers had received the lead but didn&#8217;t provide any details except that the boy gave the report to members of a child protection team. Ronald Cummings Jr., was 3 when he was interviewed the week Haleigh Ann-Marie Cummings was reported missing from her Satsuma home. &#8220;Everything they were able to find out from him they are following up on,&#8221; Schauland said.

PALATKA, Fla. -- The younger brother of a missing Putnam County girl may have provided investigators with a new lead.
Haleigh's paternal grandmother, Teresa Neves, said she questions Sheffield's decision to disclose this information.
"I don't feel like anybody should have said that," Neves said. "We don&#8217;t know who has my grandchild. And if that is somebody who would hurt my grandchild, or if you are that person and you feel like he could identify you, what would be your next move then? You know?"

Last night on the trailer at the bottom of the screen on Nancy Grace it said that the Dad's teenage girlfriend has been cleared of any suspicion in Haleigh's kidnapping. Since I can't find it anywhere today I went back to review the NG show that Patty G taped and sure enough it is there. Part 7 about 19 seconds in

The Putnam County Sheriff's Office has confirmed that members of its child-protection team interviewed Haleigh Cummings' 4-year-old brother in the days after his sister's disappearance. Capt. Dick Schauland of the Sheriff's Office would not say what Ronald Jr. told investigators, but said a detective would have been assigned to follow up on any information gleaned from the interview.
A $25,500 reward is being offered for information that helps investigators find Haleigh and/or leads to the conviction of whoever took her. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers of Northeast Florida at 1-888-277-TIPS.

Tip Leads Detectives To St. Johns Co. In Search For Haleigh
Search For Missing 5-Year-Old Continues
POSTED: Tuesday, February 24, 2009
UPDATED: 6:27 pm EST February 24, 2009

PUTNAM COUNTY, Fla. -- A tip about a possible Haleigh Cummings sighting led investigators to St. Augustine on Tuesday -- day 15 in the search for the missing 5-year-old girl.
On Tuesday morning, officers searched an area in St. Augustine near some railroad tracks around state Road 16 and U.S. Highway 1 after someone called to say he or she saw a man walking with a girl who fit Haleigh's description.
Police eventually located a man in the area who was walking his daughter to school. Still, there was no sign of Haleigh.
Other tips of possible sightings of the missing girl have led investigators on searches as far as Tennessee, where officers searched after receiving a lead that Haleigh was seen getting into a vehicle outside a restaurant. However, like many others, that turned out to be a false lead.

John Arwood may not be able to search the First Coast himself, but he owns and operates 4000 dumpsters and a fleet of utility trucks through Arwood Waste & Demolition. They travel all over, and now so will Haleigh's picture.
"There's thousands of people looking, but I can do one thing, is to get a picture out, all over the city, all over the county, northeast Florida, to southeast Georgia. I can do that to help find her," says Arwood.
To get the sign out there, Arwood called a friend. Steve Hunt owns Signs of All Kinds. When Arwood asked about ordering the signs, Hunt said he'd do it for free and went right to work.
Steve Hunt says he will print out signs and give them to anyone who wants one for free. For more information, call Signs of All Kinds at 904-707-6416.

Haleigh's Brother Says He Saw the Suspect

"He was asleep. I got there 10 minutes after we noticed she was gone. I had Junior, he said he didn't know anything...said he was asleep," Haleigh's great grandmother, Annette Sykes, told First Coast News on Monday.
Detectives have talked to the child. Relatives on both sides say he told police he saw a man in a ski mask come in their trailer and leave with his big sister.
"They questioned Junior. I asked them (police) about it. They couldn't tell me anything other than he's a little child. He was questioned and the story went from one thing to another and another," says Sykes.
Child psychologist Dr. Lynn Wadelton says the average four-year-old can give an accurate account of what they witness. But there are factors that can sometimes cloud the story.

Cummings Family: Rumors Person Was Inside Home Are False
Reported by: Matt Saffer
Email: msaffer@tvjaxfl.com
Last Update: 8:23 pm
***************************************************************

<snipped> Annette Sykes says reports that her great-grandson saw a man dressed in black inside the house the night his sister disappeared are false. Sykes says Crystal Sheffield, Haleigh Cummings biological mother, went on the Nancy Grace show and said four-year-old Ronald Jr. told her a man in black took his sister.

&#8220;I thought it was ridiculous&#8230;should never had been anything said,&#8221; said Sykes.

&#8220;If he hadn&#8217;t been asleep, he would have been up saying something&#8230;I mean he&#8217;s not going to let somebody take his sister out of there.&#8221;
