MY opinion is NO. RC and TN are more than one.
It's hard to theorize about one of the players acting alone when they all act like they have something major to hide.
Most likely Haleigh died of an overdose of an illegal substance that could be traced back to Ron. If that happened, Ron would grieve for Haleigh but be powerless to do anything to expose Misty because he would be charged as well. So, Ronald Cummings clenched his jaw and tried to play the part of the father of a missing child. He married Misty because too many people were pointing fingers at him as a creepy dude with a teenybop girlfriend; also I think before long he came to realize he could have been charged and labeled a sex offender. Ron was able to divorce Misty against her wishes because once her parents signed the papers for her to marry, Ron was off the hook for any type of sexual predator charge and he knew Misty could not blow the whistle on him about the drugs that killed Haleigh because she would go down too.
This is the closest I can come to considering a lone perp: Haleigh died in Misty's care and she fed Ron a story about a drug overdose--and he could not refute that.
I do not think Tommy could be the lone perp here, mainly because Misty was just so far off course during the 911 call. She clearly had been told what to say, which Ron would feel compelled to do if she told him Haleigh had died from his pills. Ron had to cover for his own culpability and in the process covered for Misty's.
Ron and Misty both clearly have withheld information from the beginning, IMO. This tells me they know exactly what happened to Haleigh on February 9, 2009. They are in cahoots in a cover-up, so my answer is that neither Ron nor Misty acted alone. If Tommy acted alone, Misty would have covered for him to an extent, but I doubt she would be continuing to cover for Tommy to this day. And I cannot think of any reason why Ron would do any of what he has done if he thought Tommy was responsible for Haleigh's demise.
I have considered Amber as having a motive (or her mom on her behalf)...but that would not explain the behavior of the others. There is just no reason for the players to continue their charade if they were not involved, so I never really went too far in developing a theory with Amber as the perp. I had thought about Amber from time to time but never could make her fit solely because of the behaviors of the players.
Anyway, here I go again with one of my ridiculously long, drawn-out posts. I'll end with saying that while anything is possible in this case, I do not believe that this was the work of someone acting alone. If the players could point at any person, they would have done so, and they would have fully cooperated with LE all along the way. The players do not, IMO, appear to want Haleigh's disappearance solved, and that points the finger of guilt at them, IMO. One caused Haleigh's demise and the others became conspirators in the cover-up, maybe willingly but perhaps by circumstance.
Your theory is well thought out and one can tell you put a lot of thought and time into it...as well as considering many angles to it....
good work!!....
Perhaps you have a theory on this as well....Why is Ron now admitting there was a fight over a gun??
If true...does this fit anywhere in your theory???...thanks

bolded by me...
Do you have a theory where this took place? Green lane or Magnolia?
again...thanks for your opinion
I've been working on a theory that Misty called Ron as soon as she found Haleigh missing, & he either sneaked out of work or got off early, & helped with the clean up, & then did the drive thing & the ciggy run, to establish his alibi. Why? because he had a lot of criminal stuff to cover, before he called 911. clean the house of drugs & guns, maybe stolen property, who knows. & yes, I do think Ron would be capable of this. If he did this, then there's something else he would need to cover. I do believe these people made a bad situation worse. I know a lady whose son's gf died of an OD, in their home & they cleaned that house, from 1 end to another...not because they didn't care about the girl, because they did. It's been 4 years, & they still grieve, & the son will never be the same. But, they did clean that house. That's what dealers do. & I don't think Misty would've dared calling the cops without Ron's help. on a side note...2 years after that OD, the mom found some meth, still stashed in a tree, & a purse filled with the girl's pills. & the cops, who turned that house upside down, just missed them.Your theory is well thought out and one can tell you put a lot of thought and time into it...as well as considering many angles to it....

I agree & I think Tommy fed Misty the lies...starting with a stranger must've kidnapped her. I can't figure out why the not guilty don't rat out the guilty...unless that's what Ron is doing, right now.I think they're all liars so it's really hard to wrap my head around anybody acting alone but I suppose Misty would be my guess since she was the last to admit being with Haleigh. Maybe Tommy because he put himself there too. If it was Ronald I think he'd have needed some cooperation from those who said they were there.
It could have been a sexual predator if Misty was out (of it) but I wouldn't put my money on a stranger but someone from the family circle with access to the players before and after the fact, knowledge about their intoxicated ways and possibly able to influence them and feed them ideas for various lies to tell.
