Haleigh Cummings Update: Ex-Stepmother Misty Croslin Sentenced to 25 Years for Drug Crimes

PALATKA, Fla. (CBS/AP) Nearly two years after Haleigh Cummings disappeared from her father's home without a trace, the woman who was supposed to be watching Haleigh, Misty Croslin, has been sentenced to 25 years in prison and nearly $1.5 million in fines for a series of unrelated drug crimes.

The prison term will run concurrently with a 25-year sentence for drug trafficking given Croslin in October 2009.

Croslin has remained the focus of the two-year-long investigation into Haleigh's disappearance ever since the 5-year-old was reported missing in February 2009.

According to police reports, Croslin said that she put Haleigh to bed one night, along with the girl's 4-year-old brother, at around 8 p.m. When she woke up at 3 a.m. Haleigh was gone and the back door of the north Florida house Croslin shared with the girl's father, Ronald Cummings, was propped open by a cement block. Cummings reported Haleigh missing when she returned from work.

Croslin has reportedly changed her story several times since Haleigh went missing.

Croslin pleaded no contest last year to seven counts of dealing in prescription narcotics. She was sentenced to various terms for each count, but they will all run concurrently with an earlier sentence.

In October, a St. Johns County judge sentenced Croslin to 25 years in prison for one charge of drug trafficking.

Croslin and Haleigh's father, who divorced shortly after Haleigh disappeared, were arrested along with three others in January 2010 following an undercover operation. The others, plus Ronald Cummings, have each been sentenced to 15 years in prison.

No one has been arrested in connection with Haleigh's disappearance. Putnam County Sheriff Jeff Hardy has said that he believes Haleigh is dead.
