this just in to prime news, the state of florida has filed drug charges against mystei mis crosslin.
6:30 pm
her story about haylee's disappearance has never added up. >> mom, i want out of here. >> i know it. >> i want out of here really bad. >> i know. >> that's misty crying in jail, talking to her mom, what she wants, what she needs, but not one mention of little haylee in those conversations. we'll take your calls, 1-877-tell-hln. back with us, law enforcement analyst mike brooks. t.j., still we have to start with little haylee, anything knew in the investigation? are you getting any buzz that they've got something new here? >> i can only tell you that the mood here is a lot more energized and when i talked to officials with the putnam county sheriff's office. in fact i had a conversation with sheriff jeff hardy
6:31 pm
yesterday, he said i can't comment on the investigation. but you could feel a sense that progress is being made. in fact, i was treated to some nice scenery, which was the haylee's room, putnam county sheriff's office, where they keep a lot of the evidence on the files, but i couldn't get into them, because those are all evidence in the case. but that's where they are housed and things like that. that's never been done so i sense there's going to be a break. misty croslin not adapting to jail life. not doing well at all. tommy croslin is do a bit better. ronald is in lockdown in putnam county. >> mike, you see this, new charges?
6:32 pm
not that they're not valid, but investigators are going to use those to keep -- we saw misty crying, maybe she's ready to crack here, right? >> i sure hope so. from what t.j. is saying, it does sound a little hopeful. because putnam county, they don't really say much. and you know what? she's young. nobody likes jail at all. but, you know, if this is what it takes, i'm all for it. and again, it's not charges they're just trumping up on her. and she didn't realize how much money it was going to take to get her out of jail and right now she doesn't have that money and she's not getting out. >> let's go to the sound bite, this is misty again speaking on the phone about how much bail, what kind of money it's going to take to get her out. let's listen to misty one more time. >> i know it's $50,000. so what's 10% of $50,000.
6:33 pm
>> i think it's $10,000. >> so i need $10,000 to get out? >> yeah. >> all right, i think that's that. all right, t.j., what else are you gleaning as you're listening there. obviously she's breaking is that right? >> these telephone calls that i have been listening to have been seriously redacted. she's talking to her brother, timmy, she says, i know something, i don't know nothing. she says i got to get out of here. what about this cobra guy, somebody's going to bail me out. she was very convinced that somebody from las vegas, whether it was going to be somebody along the lines of a stubs or a padilla, and you can tell she's at the point to where she's going to crack. >> we have to get mike brooks in
6:34 pm
on this. leonard padilla, we know he bailed casey anthony out. is he going to bail misty croslin out? >> i talked to him and i said it's been a year now, are you going to get involved? he says i'm just looking at options. but he said if she could give me information that would lead to finding haylee. and i was able to get the information just to get her out, otherwise i wouldn't get her out. i don't think the attorneys are going to let that happen. and law enforcement, they don't want her out, they want her right where she is. >> and ronald's bail is $1.3 million. nobody in putnam county has that kind of cabbage. >> except for leonard padilla.
6:35 pm
this is misty talking to hank croslin sr. let's listen. >> this has got to come to an end, it's got to, misty, whatever the truth is, it's got to come out. and, you know, you don't want to be talking with us, your lawyer. >> uh-huh. >> there you go, mike. tell the truth and get lawyered up, huh? >> don't lie anymore. so what does that say? hmm, he's the father, i think he probably knows, she knows some information. and mike, i keep going back to those polygraphs, do you know who took haylee? 42% deception. did you take haylee? 95% deception. >> we appreciate it. coming up, mel gibson, not exactly known for holding his
6:36 pm
tongue and letting loose again, this during an interview.

6:38 pm
welcome back to "prime news" on hln. if toyota's not bad bad enough problems, now the prius hybrid. so many of you have called in asking for information.
6:39 pm
let's bring back in ali velshi, author of "give me my money back" all over this since day one. walk us through how serious is this? >> is preous prius is new. a number of people have complained there is a problem when you hit the brakes on the 2010 preious, the brakes don't kick for about a second after you hit it. that doesn't sound like a lot but, in fact, as you troo toy stop a car a second delay could mean a big difference. toyota has looked into it and identified a software problem and sometime this afternoon word got out they were re-calling some 270,000 cars. toyota immediately told us, toyota usa, that's not the case. they can't confirm whether it is the case or deny it's the case. we're not entirely sure. as is emblematic of the whole situation once again toyota doesn't have a clear message. so, people in the industry are speculating that there could be a recall coming on these, but as of right now, toyota is saying no recall right now on the 2010 prius of the brake problem.
6:40 pm
>> are we hearing of specifics -- >> yes. keep in mind the other problem was an accelerator that sticks a bit of o problem but a brake that fails is more serious than an accelerator that sticks. i would venture if we talk about this tomorrow, there will be a greater development on this one way or the other. i would venture if you and i are talking about this tomorrow, there will be a greater development on this tomorrow. something will be done about the priuses. >> if not enough. >> we have the rest of it, more than five million cars, re-called on two major re-calls basically. this is the gas pedal, one is a gas pedal that is interfered by the floor mat and is getting stuck in an accelerated position. the fix for that take it in and they trim the gas pedal so it doesn't, you know, mix up with the floor mat. the second one, the one that took them longer to figure out a gas pedal, over time with wear and tear, starts to accelerate on its own. and that's the other problem we've got. now they have a fix for that. not every toyota dealership in the country has employed it yet because they have had to train mechanics on it so. they are training individual mechanics who train other mechanics. many toyota dealerships will stay open 24 hours to get this
6:41 pm
repair done and toyota is giving the dealerships money based on how many cars they repair to keep staff going, you know, overnight and the weekend. >> again. i've got to ask again as we go through this plus the prius problem, how are they handling this? i know it is difficult and you want to give them a bit of a benefit of the doubt. >> i gave them sort of a low c or high d yesterday. >> yeah. >> it is dropping. the fact we have to run around and chase whether or not there was actually an announcement and can't confirm because it is overnight in japan. guys, this is crisis mode for you, you've got to be up and running now. we need to see the face of the president of toyota out there saying we have got a handle on this and this is what we are going to do. we have had reporters getting different answers no matter who you ask. that's no the way to handle a crisis when your entire company is built on reliability and reputation. >> if you and i aren't getting a straight message. >> that's my points. >> imagine the person driving into a dealership going help me out here and expecting someone
6:42 pm
at a dealership to have the right answer. >> look. i'm a big business guy. i like business and i like business like toyota. i think they've done a great job. it's also time to say, guys, you are really, really mishandling this thing. you've got to get out and own this before everybody else does it for you. >> clock is ticking. has toyota built up enough goodwill to weather this storm or is it getting to the point where they are going to take a serious hit for quite a while? >> i think they are probably right on that line. i think they can recover from it if they do something very, very quickly but the clock is ticking on them, too. >> ali, always great having you. >> my pleasure. >> thanks, ali. coming up, more on tiger woods. hard core porn star detailing their affair. steamy text from tiger. she starred in the hit films, "big breasted nurses" and "my

we have yet another alleged tiger mistress coming up. her name is joslyn james. she's also one of 12 featured on a set of golf balls, called tale of the tiger the mistress collection. she's asking for her picture to be taken off that product. >> i have come forward today because i feel it is wrong for a golf ball to have my picture on it. as a victim of violence myself, it bothered me to think that someone would be standing with a dangerous club in their hands and hitting a ball with my face on it. >> all right, so a hard core porn star is worried about her image because her face is on a
6:46 pm
golf ball. this is the wom-- tiger's wife n nordegren is going to pick up tiger from rehab and they're going to go and try and work things out. welcome back, friend and colleague, jane velez-mitchell and brooke anderson. jane, i'll start with you, i'm all for sounding the alarm for violence against women. but a golf ball here? and the people who are buying these golf balls, they're not even going to use them on the course, they're going to display them as a conversation piece. your thoughts on all this, jane? >> i have to say, perhaps she's a very good actress because she seemed sincere to me. and tonight on issues, we're going to have her attorney gloria allred on live to talk
6:47 pm
about why this woman, joslyn james is stepping forward, she says she was a victim of violence, and maybe she's telling the truth. you might want to judge her because she's an adult film star, but my feeling is, she's an american, she has the right to speak out if she wants to, and if she's offended by this, she's offended. >> i don't think people are thinking about that when they're buying these golf balls, they're thinking about the novelty and the joke value of it. brooke, let's get you in on this. she's also unveiling some pretty steamy text messages from tiger, right? >> she says she's got about 100 text messages from tiger woods and that she was with him for a year and she says that she thought tiger truly loved her. and this is a man that she knew
6:48 pm
was deceiving his family, so why wouldn't she believe that he wouldn't be lying to her as well, either he's very persuasive and believable or she's extremely delusional or maybe it's both. i do not know her reasons for getting into the adult film business, i'm not judging her. >> let's listen, you mentioned it, how she said she loved him. i believe we have that, talking conference, she was in love with tiger and likewise. let's hear it. i was in love with tiger, and because of what he said to me and the length of time that we spent together and how long we were together, i believe that he loved me, too. i don't think that tiger would want a picture of me on now tha. >> okay, let's get back to the
6:49 pm
love portion of this chain. she is not alone. how many others have said the same thing, that they thought they were the one? >> look, all this happening, all this coming out, just as elin reportedly, according to some published reports, is going to be picking tiger up and taking him from rehab to some sojourn where they're going to try to work out their marriage? how much more can she take? it reminds me of the edwards situation where at a certain point elizabeth edwards said you know what, i don't take anymore. >> yeah, and talking about sheer numbers and we're not just talking about generics, we are getting details of these steamy messages, and is basically he was very happy with her. talking about the porn star. and brooke, you wonder where that breaking point is. do we know, where has elin been, where are the kids? what's been going on with her? >> there are reports floating around, and as jane said, we're hearing that she is going to pick him up from rehab, they're going to try to patch things up.
6:50 pm
and i am shocked if she is truly going to do this. because what he has done to her is despicable, it's appalling. but at the same time, i do firmly believe in the institution of marriage. although he has violated his wedding vows over and over and over again. if she is trying to save her marriage for the sake of her family, more power to her. but really, how many women are going to have to come out of the woodwork for it to be too much for her, for her to finally leave him high and dry? >> how hurtful would it be if they do try and if she has that big a forgiving heart, again, more power to her, and six months later, two more come out of the woodwork with more damaging details. you wonder how much one person can take. jane, real quick, "issues," what else are you going to hit? >> misty croslin, we're playing the tapes. ask boy, they're humdingers, ask we're going to analyze the mysterious mystery croslin tonight to find out what happened to haleigh.
6:51 pm
>> brooke and i are going to continue, and mel gibson letting loose again during an interview? what's going on with this guy? call in, 1-877-tell-hln.
