SATSUMA, Fla. (March 12) - The father of missing child Haleigh Cummings' married his 17-year-old-girlfriend, who was the last one known to have seen the child alive.
On Sunday Ronald Cummings asked his teenage girlfriend, Misty Croslin, for her hand in marriage at a local Chili's restaurant. While he was with several family members, Cummings got down on one knee, asked Croslin to marry him and gave her Haleigh's grandmother's diamond ring.


I only took this section as cut and paste but if you read the whole article it also mentions that in the middle of the search for his missing daughter, the two are going to fly to new york for their honeymoon....

I would hope that his missing daughter would take priority over the honeymoon but I guess i'd be wrong.....

i found this link...it does sound strange. i couldn't think of anything else but my missing child

if there's grass on the infield, play ball!

17's consentin' age in Flaaaida.

psst...i don't think it's about the girlfriend's age as much as they are getting married while the child is still missing

I apologize I should have posted the link please forgive me :)

Yes the story is more about the timing of their wedding/honeymoon than the fact that she's 17.

i'm not sure if that was the link you read or not. that's one that i found

could it be they don't care because they know what happened to the little girl or getting married so one can't testify against another?

I found the story on aol.com

It's the same story though so it works :)

I was thinking that too rose, the whole thing seems fishy.

my child is 18 but even if he was 40 yrs old....if he was missing....i couldn't think about anything else

i think one or both know something. has their family not thought of this?

yep

Not that I could tell from the story I read. They all seem to think this wedding was a great idea for when the girl is found.

I say when cuz I'd rather not think of the alternative...
