>> man, that's a hard question to answer. it's hard to believe that she don't know more, but it's also hard to believe that if she did know more, she ain't already talking, you know? especially if they got her locked up like they got me, man. because it [ bleep ] drive me crazy. this place ain't but the size of two sheets of plywood. >> and tonight, live, virginia, i received this letter from a detective in richmond, virginia, begging our show to help find two little boys, 7 and 8 years old. look at them. are they not precious in those two little suits? tonight, we will help. what happened to these two little angels? jamal abdul farouk was just 7 when he went missing from his richmond, virginia, apartment complex along with his older brother, 8-year-old jazile. the boys were out of school for spring break and begged their mom to let them go outside to play. their mom had just worked the night shift hours earlier and decided to take a quick half-hour nap. when she awoke and went outside to tell them to come in to eat, no one knew where her sons had gone. police, volunteers and tracking dogs searched frantically for days. on the third day of search, basile's body found. the boy's body was bound and wrapped in a plastic garbage bag. but his brother jamal, never seen again. is jamal still alive?

>> uh-uh. no. they know i haven't found out anything, dana. they know i haven't. because they know they would be the first ones to know. i wouldn't call them or nothing else. they would be notified by the news media or somebody, you know, reporting a homicide. they already know that i haven't found out anything. they don't have to ask me a dumb question like that. >> do you think misty knows more than everybody says, that you're trying to find out stuff from her. is that accurate? >> that i'm trying to find out stuff from her? >> right. >> well, of course, i want to know if she knows anything. what she does know. >> i just want anybody to know that i didn't do anything with that little girl. i loved her like she was my own, and i'll do anything to get her back. >> he feels like they're so certain that misty knows something and that misty is going to say something while she's in there. he just bawled when we talked about haleigh. the way he feels like that this may bring her home, you know? and if it does, then it's absolutely worth whatever happens. >> that is grandmother theresa neves talking to wofl, fox 35, after visiting ronald cummings, haleigh's father behind bars. straight out to art harris at artharris.com, investigative journalist. art, why are they so sure that misty knows what happened, misty croslin knows what happened to haleigh cummings? >> well, contradictions have been mounting all the while, nancy. she has been their number one key to unlocking this investigation, police have said. and now ronald is saying that's what they told him when they arrested him on these new drug charges. >> okay. what about it, marlena? >> well, nancy, he told his mom that they are certain this is going to get them answers. he thinks that now this is it. if she is in a detention center the way he is, and he's locked up because he says he's going stir crazy, it's going to finally get her to talk. >> let's take a listen to some of the rest of ronald cummings' jailhouse tapes. >> i mean, a 911 call, i haven't changed my mind about the 911 call since the minute it was made. >> okay. >> that still remains. it don't matter. 40, 50 years from now, if i find whoever done it before they do, you know, whatever might be done, whether they took haleigh because they lost the child or whatever the case might be, you know. yeah, if i find out who or however there's two people, three people, whatever, did, whatever, took my daughter wherever, then when i find out, if i find out before the police, it's going to be done for them. done dealing. i have satisfaction of knowing that i got the person who stole my daughter from me. >> let me ask you one other thing. what's your relationship with misty? >> there really isn't a relationship, you know? just, i guess, ex-wife/friend. >> okay. and do you have a girlfriend? >> yeah. >> who's that? >> i'd rather not say. but yeah, i do have a girlfriend. >> let me ask you this on the record. what do you think is going to happen to you? >> hmm. i'm going to prison. >> okay. that's what you think. i mean, that's -- can you say how long you think? >> no, i don't have a clue. let me ask you this. >> yeah. >> can you send me a newspaper every day, man, so i can read it? >> i don't know. yeah, i don't know. i'll have to figure that out. but i'll do what i can. >> i mean, i'll pay for the newspaper or whatever. >> no, i can -- you can have a newspaper? >> yeah. >> but you just need somebody to get it to you? >> yeah. >> so how would you get it? not by mail. do they bring people newspapers in the jail? >> well, what they do is you get -- it would be like by mail almost. i mean, all i know is that i can have reading materials. i haven't asked, but i will ask if you want me to. but i can have reading materials. there's just nothing left in the library. everything is already checked out except the bible they brought me. you know? i mean, the cell can't be no more than -- it might be 10x12 maybe on the side where the toilet ain't at. on the side with the toilet, it can't be more than 8x10. that's what i'm saying. this is not very big at all. >> it doesn't sound big. i'll tell you what, it will get smaller and smaller. >> oh, yeah. it does. >> do they let you read anything? >> i've got a bible finally last night. >> okay. >> we are taking your calls live. patty in texas. hi, patty. >> caller: hi. >> hi, dear. what's your question? >> caller: first of all, i would like to say, you know, give a heads up and say that i want justice for morgan. and then also i wanted to find out, do you know any information about this donna brock and her involvement in the arrest of misty and ronald? >> oh, patty in texas, she's in so deep. go ahead, art, explain it. >> donna brock is a confidant of misty croslin. she was on the scene as a volunteer for texas equisearch, went undercover supposedly to get close to misty and try to find out by befriending her, taking her to nail and hair appointments what she knew about the disappearance of haleigh. and i have talked to donna numerous times over the last couple of months and she believes that she does know more than she's revealed. >> what have they told you about why you're in jail? >> i've just been in jail, man. they told me i was being arrested because they had warrants for me for trafficking this hydrocodone. i mean, the 911 call, i haven't changed my mind about the 911 call from the minute it was made. that still remains. it don't matter 40, 50 years from now, if i ever find whoever did it before they do, whatever might be done, whether they took haleigh because they lost the child or whatever the case might be, you know, yeah, if i find out who or however, there's two people, three people, whatever, did, whatever, took my daughter wherever, then when i find out, if i find out before the police, it's going to be done for them. done dealing. i'll have satisfaction of knowing that i got the person who stole my daughter from me. >> what's her date of birth? tell them we understand. we need to get her date of birth. >> what's her date of birth? >> we need to find her. >> okay, sir, let me talk to your wife. let me get some information from her. can i talk to her? okay. >> i know somebody took my little girl. that sorry piece of trash that will be wasted when it's all over. >> what have they talked to you about? have they talked to you about why they have arrested you? or have they you talked to any dblgts at all? or have you been just been in jail? >> i've just been in jail, man. i was told i've been arrested because they had warrants for me for trafficking in hydrocodone. >> back to you marlaina schiavo. did ronald cummings actually make any of the sales on drugs or was it all misty and he was along for the ride? >> misty was at all of the sales but yes, ronald was there. >> that's not what i asked you. >> okay. >> i asked you if he made the sales himself? >> he did. he did. she called him on one of the transactions, she called him, went up to his truck, he made the phone call, got the pills and gave them to the agent. and you know what, nancy? we haven't seen it yet, but we're waiting on this video evidence that they have. when i spoke to ronald's lawyer, they're saying they've got a pretty good case against him and her, for that matter. >> okay. marlaina, break down the charges for me. what do we have? >> we have trafficking, nancy, of prescription drugs. now, we've got oxycodone and hydrocodone. and they range from 4 grams to over 24 grams. each with a mandatory minimum of their own. the 4 to 14 grams will get them three years and the over 28 grams will get them 25 years. misty is looking at over 100 years in prison and ronald's looking at a hefty sentence himself if convicted. >> i want to go to a special guest joining us, crystal cummings. this is haleigh's aunt, ronald cummings' sister. your mom was at the jail. what did ronald cummings say behind bars? >> he is pretty much saying that he wants the focus to be on haleigh. he's really worried about something coming out for haleigh of this. and his son. mostly that's what was talked about, his children. >> did he say behind bars that he and/or cops are convinced that misty croslin knows what happened to haleigh? >> i'm not sure about that. i guess this is -- the arrest will -- is supposed to bring something. if we can get anything out of misty, my opinion, this should help. i mean, i'm not sure if that's what's going to go on, but i'm hoping that something -- we can get something out of misty. >> isn't it true that he said, behind bars, that the reason he married misty croslin was to get the truth out of her about what happened to haleigh? >> i'm sure it is. >> what? >> i'm sure it is. >> why are you sure? >> i can't answer that question, nancy. >> i'm going to go back to art harris. art harris, weigh in. >> nancy, i can tell you that's what ronald cummings told me one night. we were having dinner at a place in satsuma. and he said that the reason he married her was, quote, you keep your friends close and your enemies closer. that's been stated before. but this is someone, that night, he was very angry at her, nancy, for her, quote, alleged partying ways. and he did not express that anger in public, but apparently now he is going public about his doubts about her. >> we are taking your calls live to anne in georgia. hi, anne. >> caller: hi, nancy. >> hi, dear. what's your question? >> caller: well, first of all, i've got a two-part question. one is have the authorities got any reason to believe this child is still alive? and secondly, why would anyone want to take this child from someone who has nothing to give them for the child back? >> that is an excellent question. marlaina, what are police telling you about that haleigh is still alive? >> they're looking for a live haleigh cummings because there's no evidence that foul play has been involved whatsoever. >> out to the lawyers. eleanor odom, atlanta, felony prosecutor, peter odom, defense attorney atlanta, jason o shins, new york. what about it? >> i think it's interesting that ronald is saying all these things from the jail. it's clear what he believes. he believes misty is responsible for haleigh's disappearance. and having her in jail may make her talk, nancy. >> what about it, jason? >> i agree with eleanor. i think you're going to start at the bottom, squeeze until you get out at the top. hopefully something good comes out of this for the cummings family. let me ask you this on the record. what do you think is going to happen to you? >> i'm going to prison. >> okay. that's what you think then and that's -- can you say how long you think? >> no, i don't have a clue. somebody stole my child out of my bed. i come home from work and my child was not there. >> i'm going to go right back to peter odom. but first, back to you art harris. apparently, these drug deals were caught not only on audio but on video. now, how exactly did the undercover narcotics agent -- was he wearing, like, a pinhole video camera? >> no. his car was wired for the camera, kind of like "taxicab confessions." and he had audio of all the cell phone call between misty and the undercover officer. apparently, there were hours of tape. one of my sources close to the case said it's really a slam dunk. they've got six counts, six incidents, and all five people on audio and videotape. >> hold on just a moment. i'm hearing from the control room. matt, are you telling me he did have on a video -- on his person and, as art harris is saying, in the car? okay. all right. to bill gallander, how does that work where your body -- i mean, i worked with wires when i was prosecuting. undercover wires. but i never rigged somebody with a wearable video. >> nancy, there are a variety of ways that covert video cameras can be secreted on the body. some of them can be used as a buttonhole camera. a button in the shirt is replaced with a video camera. it's a pinhole camera where the lens is actually the button. it's worn on the body and it connects to a dvr, a digital video cam recorder, that is about the size of a pack of cigarettes that can record for a number of three to four hours at a clip. also, the camera can be hidden in a pair of sunglasses. it can be in a baseball cap. it can be in a book or a cup of coffee. there's a variety of ways to se secret these cameras and they're very good digital cameras these days. >> what's your relationship with misty? >> there really isn't a relationship, you know? i guess ex-wife/friend.  let me ask you this. can you spend me a newspaper every day, man, so i can read it? >> i don't know. yeah, i don't know. i'll have to figure that out. i'll do what i can. >> i mean, i'll pay for the newspaper or whatever. >> no, i can -- you can have a newspaper? >> yeah. >> you just need somebody to get it to you? >> yeah. >> so, how would you get it? not by mail. do they bring people newspapers in the jail? >> well what they do is it would be like by mail almost. i mean, all i know is that i can have reading materials. i haven't asked but i will ask if you want me to. i can have reading materials. there's just nothing left in the library. everything is already checked out except the bible they brought me. so you know. >> was the bed made? >> no. i was sleeping in that bed. how would the bed be made if someone's sleeping in the bed? i wasn't the only one sleeping in it, but how would it be in -- me and his son, how would it be made if we were in the bed sleeping? they have been on me for six months. they haven't left me alone for six months. i've been the one, the main focus. they just need to move on and look for the right person. >> that's what her mom told me. that she had a tattoo and you paid for it and paid for one for your cousin. >> i did not pay for her tattoo, and i didn't pay for my cousin's tattoo. my cousin paid for her tattoo and misty paid for her own tattoo. >> okay. i'm glad to clear that up. >> yeah, i appreciate it. because i did not pay for them tattoos. >> okay, i know it's off topic, but art, what tattoo? >> misty has a tattoo on her lower back, nancy, got it in the last few weeks. and the name on the tattoo is "ronald." it's of her ex-husband, which is a little strange, you know, coming in the middle of -- or after their divorce, and certainly, although it's in the middle of their new, quote, drug partnership. i mean, they were together in a business deal my sources are telling me. and you know, he was getting drugs for the deal and passing them out. she was calling her contacts. this was a family affair. >> okay. art. what can you tell me about misty croslin's father. you just spoke to him. look, forget about the drugs. all right? that's just a tool to find out what happened to haleigh. what did the father say about misty croslin? >> he was shocked, nancy, that she's been accused of being the ringleader of this -- >> wait a minute. wait a minute. put harris back up. that is a video of her, we were just showing you in court, where they asked her, how do you make a living? what do you do? she says nothing. how did the parents think she lived? >> well, he did say that if she was dealing drugs, she was only trying to, quote, help out some friends, nancy. and it was really a rationalization. as far as tommy, her brother, go, i talked to his wife lindsey, she says tommy's not a criminal. she's an addict. she's been trying to get him to rehab. the program she tried is $8,700 a month. she doesn't have the money. she could get him committed for 72 hours but he would get out and want more hydrocodone. >> out to the line. suzy, ohio. hi, suzy. >> caller: hi, nancy. >> what's your question? >> caller: since the beginning, i wondered about this. do you think something may accidentally or on purpose happened to ron before he went to work? but he went to work for his alibi. it's awfully strange they never went after each other. it's almost like they're sharing a secret and now they're drug buddies. >> you know, suzy, as you started the question, i was all set to say no, i really do not think ronald cummings had anything to do with it. i still don't. my gut says no. but what you're saying about their ongoing association is extremely puzzling. you know, you've got a good point. what about it, bethany marshall? dr. bethany joining us from l.a., author of "deal breakers." >> i think the problem here and what creates this dysfunction and this ongoing connection between the two of them is that ronald cummings lacks big-picture thinking. he left his children in the hands of someone who is dealing drugs and perhaps using them herself. that's lack of big-picture thinking. he thinks that if he commits vigilante justice, justice will be served. but then who's going to parent little junior? he won't be available to his own child. he went and dealt drugs, but he didn't think that he would be caught. that's lack of big-picture thinking. and what i would really advise him at this point is that he find a trusted friend or adviser, perhaps even his attorney, who can help him think through these various situations. i think that is the only help to be had for this family system at this point, and perhaps he can lead the charge towards greater sobriety and better judgment. >> well, believe me, he's going to get sobriety behind bars. to you, peter odom. what do you think the prosecutor's plan is? and what do you make of this video and audio cops say they've got of every one of these deals? >> nancy, this evidence that's been collected is very typical of drug task force type investigations. it sounds like it's solid, solid evidence. very hard to overcome. the police know they have a solid case against these two, and they're going to be trying very hard, as jason oshins said, to squeeze everybody to not only give up higher drug dealers but to get information about the disappearance of this little girl. this is a power play. and unfortunately, ronald and misty played right into the police's hands here. >> to pat brown, criminal profiler, author of "killing for sport," do you think she even remembers what happened? >> absolutely. and i think ronald is pulling her strings. i have to agree with the caller and disagree with bethany marshall. i think ronald is a criminal, pathologically lying psychopath who is controlling his girlfriend. after all, this is a guy who said he would go out and kill people to get them back for doing something to his child, but he won't even beat up his girlfriend to find out why she was lying to find out what happened to her. i don't think he's thinking she's going to crack and he will get some information. i think he's worried she will crack. >> so you think that he was part of it? >> i do. i don't think this kind of guy would have backed her all this time. >> wait. liz, pull me that 911 sound of ronald cummings. to me, this sounds so genuine. i see -- i see that you're smiling. you're not buying it. why? >> because this man is -- i have seen psychopathic behavior all along with this man. he stood in front of the cameras. it was geraldo, i think. he said i have never dealt drugs in my life. i am not that kind of guy. hello. of course he's that kind of guy. he's always been that kind of guy. he's a pathological liar. a good actor and a good manipulator. he knew exactly what he was doing on that tape. i don't think any of that is true. i think he knew what happened. he's covering it up. and i think he's got his little girlfriend, ex-wife, whatever you want to call her now, drug dealing friend who he supposedly should be really angry at and furious at, not want to have anything to do with her, he's got her in his hands. >> take a listen to the 911 tape. >> sir, let me talk to your wife so -- let me get some information from her. can i talk to her? >> [ bleep ]. >> i just don't know where my 5-year-old daughter has gone. i need somebody to be here now, i'm telling you. >> listen to me. listen to me. we have two officers -- >> if i find whoever has my daughter before you all do, i'm killing him. i don't care. i'll spend the rest of my life in prison. you can put it on the recording. i don't care. >> it's okay, sir. we've got them on the way. what kind of description of the pajamas she was wearing? the officers are going to come out there and do what they can. we can't have him screaming and yelling at the officers whenever they get there, okay? >> eleanor, i've got ten seconds to break. do you think he's lying? you heard the 911. >> it doesn't sound like he's lying, but what's interesting is when he said "how can you let my daughter get stole?" >> here is the ng family album. here are some photos of the twins. now, this is us last summer at the beach. this is john david and lucy with daddy. and listen, on the jersey shore, it is not warm, people. that's why we have on sweaters and long pants. there they are swinging. and now your photos. here's texas friends, the smiths. mom of three, angela, watches every night with her little crime fighters, casey, jane and braden. i can just eat them up. illinois friends of the show. trevor friend, robin. they never miss the show. what a family. and tonight, our thoughts and prayers are with army specialist trevor and his unit, bravo detachment 24, ft. stewart, georgia. deploying to afghanistan in just a few hours. god bless you and come home. have they asked you about haleigh yet? >> yep. >> when was that? >> wednesday, right after they captured me. or apprehended me or whatever they want to call it. >> okay. what happened? >> they just told me that their main focus is not on putting me in jail with you on -- but on finding haleigh. they didn't really question me, man. they already know that i don't know nothing about haleigh's disappearance, otherwise i already would have been in d.o.c. >> what do you think do for a living, ma'am? >> nothing. >> i'm sorry? >> nothing. >> how do you support yourself? >> my mom and my dad. >> how old are you? >> just turned 18. >> have they asked you about haleigh yet? >> yep. >> we are taking your calls live tonight. we get the rest of the ronald cummings jailhouse tapes where he says, behind bars, that cops are convinced that misty croslin knows where haleigh is. there's no way she can know where haleigh is and not be part of her death or disappearance. there's no way. i want to go back to dr. marty, professor of health from johns hopkins. give it to me straight. how hard is it going to be to get her straight? i mean, to get her off the sauce? >> well, let's face it, we're talking about dealing some -- dealing with some pretty serious medications, oxycodone and hydrocodone. these substances are like the oral version of propofal, the same substance that killed michael jackson. so we are talking about some major drug dealing involved here, over 300 pills. i mean, you only need about 10 to overdose. we're talking about issues of psychological trauma, detachment, drug dealing and the murder all in the background of it all. >> ingrid in arkansas. hi, ingrid. what's your question, dear? >> caller: i have only one of them. since he was living in the trailer, didn't he have a septic tank there? did they ever drain the septic tank and check if there was a body there? >> to marlaina schiavo, did they ever drain the septic tang and check if there was a body in there? >> they've checked everywhere. they even checked bodies of water in all in the surrounding area. they even drain ponds and no, no body. >> i tell you this much, with all these drug deals on video, i used to say, what else could a jury want, a video? they've got the video. somebody better crack. i want to take you quickly and ask for your help. i got this letter to our show from detectives asking our show to help find two little boys. take a listen. >> little 7-year-old jamal abdul farouk and his 8-year-old brother basile, orp on spring break. they went outside to play while their mother took a nap. just 30 mins later mom wakes up. she goes outside to call the boys in to eat, but they're nowhere to be found. a massive search under way. three days later, the police call the boys' parents to tell them the body of their oldest son has been found, murdered and dumped in a local landfill. his brother jamal's whereabouts unknown. police still on the hunt for the boy's killer, holding out hope jamal might still be alive. >> this letter is from detective james p. baines, city of richmond. everyone, the tip line in this case, 804-780-6748. this went down in richmond, virginia. one little boy we know is dead. the other still missing. alexis, what can you tell me? >> there's a very real possibility that the younger boy, jamal, is still alive. there was never any evidence found that he was either with his brother, that he had been taken even at the same time. so, there's a real possibility that he's out there and there's actually been two tips that have come in recently from the georgia area, hinesville, georgia, that maybe there was a sighting of jamal. >> i want to go to jason oshins, defense attorney in new york. >> i think rewards and what you're doing right now, that's what it is about. tips come in, whether they're accurate or they're in the neighborhood, that's what stirs law enforcement to keep digging and to keep going. so it's very motivating, nancy. absolutely. >> and to pat brown, criminal profiler, what do you make of the mode of the death of the one little boy? basile had been gagged, he had been bound with duct tape and put in a garbage bag. sounds very much like the murder of little casey anthony -- caylee anthony. >> right. well sounds like to me a sexual predator. and he likely grabbed both of the boys. maybe not necessarily wanting both of the boys, but the older one was the one that was killed. a lot of times brothers will protect their little brothers and they will fight and they will be the ones that are killed first because they become an annoyance, shall we say, to the predator. so he takes care of the one and enjoys himself with the second. one thing we hope with 20 years passing is someone out there will turn on this guy. they'll remember back, no longer have connections with him. no longer be afraid of him. and they will give up information and say, i remember that creepy guy. i think he was responsible. maybe that will help. >> everyone, again, the tip line, 804-780-6748. one brother murdered, found in the trash. the other, never found. eleanor, weigh in. >> well, nancy, i think it's great with the cold case squads and prosecutors that specialize in this because sometimes a fresh pair of eyes looking at the evidence can uncover something. especially in evidence now where we can test pieces for dna, even a hair where that type of testing wasn't available 20 years ago. >> out to the lines. shirley in kansas. hi, shirley. >> caller: how are you, nancy? >> i'm good, dear. >> caller: i'm a little 103-year-old woman who enjoys your show. >> i want to learn your secret to longevity. how did you make it to 103? >> caller: it's a little lady i take care of. >> how did she make it to 103? >> caller: a lot of hard work, but she never had any children. >> well, i hope my children are going to help me live longer. what's your question, dear? >> caller: okay, the little boys that went missing. did their parents live together at the time?
