Tot Mom pleads guilty!

Casey Anthony pled guilty on Monday, but that was just for check fraud. She stole her friend's checkbook last summer and wrote some bad checks. She was sentenced to time served. No date set for the murder trial.

Other Crime News...

Virginia...Missing student, Morgan Harrington, went missing in October during a Metallica concert. She left her group of friends to go outside and then couldn't reenter the stadium. She texted her friends inside to say she would get a ride home. She was never seen again. Her cell phone and purse were found not far from the stadium. Her remains were discovered yesterday by a farmer on his property. Today it was confirmed it was her skeletal remains. No word on a motive or suspect. This farm property is not easily accessed to the public. Even the owner said he doesn't go this far back on his farm, but about two times a year. The 700-acre farm is located about ten miles from where the concert was held. I'm wondering if this farmer has a son or nearby neighbor that might become a suspect. The news has said you would have to know this area and this property to be able to get to this area where the body was placed. It's about a mile walk from the entrance. More details to come...

Florida...Ronald Cummings and Misty Croslin were arrested last Wednesday for drug trafficking. Ronald's daughter, Haleigh, went missing over the summer I think. He was at work while his teenage girlfriend was babysitting Haleigh and her little brother. At about 3am, a 911 call was made when Misty claimed she woke up to find the little girl gone. Over the course of the investigation, it appeared Ronald had nothing to do with the disappearance, but Misty was withholding information, avoiding the police, and failed a couple of polygraphs. She and Ronald ended up getting married and then divorced. For some reason they were together selling drugs to an undercover officer and are both now in jail. Police are hoping they can now question Misty more about what happened to Haleigh. One speculation from the beginning is that the little girl ingested Oxycontin and died. Ironically, that is the drug that the two were arrested for selling. I think Misty has something to do with the disappearance, but I don't think she actually killed the little girl.

These are three of the cases I have been following the most.
