Haleigh Cummings – The Cobra Tapes ... Transcripts

Haleigh Cummings – The Cobra Tapes (Transcripts)
Posted on April 25th, 2010
by Simon Barrett

Seeing as these tapes are very likely to get some discussion time in our program this afternoon I thought it might be useful to publish some transcripts. We had three people (volunteers) work very hard on these. I want to thank Carpe, Hollygsmom, and Pam Page. It was a tough mission, and time was not on our side. Your efforts are most greatly appreciated.

Do these tapes reveal anything to do with the Haleigh Cummings disappearance, I don’t know. I am not a trained psychologist but even I can see some issues with what is being said by Ronald Cummings. Do not get me wrong I am not a Ronald hater, I hate them all. There is not one of them, Misty Croslin, Tommy Croslin, Ronald Cummings, Crystal Sheffield, the battling Grammies, or anyone else remotely connected with this case that I trust any further than I could throw them!

We will be discussing these tapes on todays program at 3pm central, listen here
