Authorities have found Jennifer’s car in Orlando.  But Jennifer remains missing.

Not that it matters, but I think I heard that Jennifer spent some time in Palm Harbor, and went to school at Gaither High (someone correct me if I’m wrong), so it’s not out of the question she would end up in Tampa Bay. 

Not that this matters, but the reward for information has increased to $15,000.  Keep your eye out for her, and call Crimeline at (800) 423-TIPS with any info you may have.

    Tommy,

    I’m not sure about the Palm Harbor part. She grew up in Tampa and attended Gaither High school. Thanks again for your help.

    This forum was established by a group of local Orlando, FL residents that want to discuss crime in Orlando and specifically communicate thoughts and ideas for the safe return of Jennifer Kesse. Many volunteers who have signed up to help also visit this and other forums to share ideas. http://flfiesta.com

    I’ve been following this case from the moment I heard about it. I still am. Working for a television station in Birmingham, AL (my station is owned by a corporation who owns 1/4 of all broadcast stations in the nation), I spread the word to everyone I could that could tell her story. Jenn and I went to school together and were friends. She is very close to my heart.

    Kesse Reward Up to Quarter Million
    Bob Hazen 04/24/2006 12:46:18

    It’s been three months since Jennifer Kesse disappeared from her Orlando home. A reward for her return is going up to a quarter million dollars. The anonymous donor has a name. “I’ll be very happy to write that check,” said timeshare tycoon David Seigel. Siegel owns the resort where Jennifer Kesse worked. “This can be a reward, a ransom, whatever you want to call it.”

    Her father, Drew, says now is the time. “There’s absolutely nothing that leads to that Jennifer is no longer with us, absolutely nothing.”

    The family has set up a direct phone line for tipsters 407 722 2162.

    January, 2007 Family Letter

    January 24, 2007 will mark one year since Jennifer was last seen or heard from and her nightmare began through the senseless act of her abduction in Orlando, Florida. One year ago her life and the life of her family and friends, changed as she and we knew it.

    Time has stood still since then and will until Jennifer comes home to us. Though the mystery of her abduction remains unsolved our resolve to find Jennifer is unwavering and has never been stronger. The heartache and pain we feel from her absence every moment cannot be put into words. We feel Jennifer within us . . . she gives us the strength to continue our fight to find her. Jennifer we love you, miss you and will never give up on you!

    Jennifer’s disappearance has touched the hearts of many people who we may never know - from Orlando, our state, across the country and the world. So many people have reached out to help her in ways that astound and humble us. It is absolutely amazing. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone for unselfishly giving of your time, support, kind words and comfort, which has been a great source of strength to us - we are forever indebted to you.

    We have not yet reached the right person who can provide the needed answers to find Jennifer. To the person(s) who are involved with Jennifer’s disappearance and the family or friends of these individuals, who can provide information on what has happened to her, we ask that you search your heart and soul for the strength to come forward so we may bring Jennifer home. We know it is difficult, we understand it will take a lot of courage to do the right thing, but know that peace and forgiveness will be yours.

    To the authorities, who have been tireless in their actions and commitment - we want you and your community to know that we greatly appreciate the individual and family sacrifices each of you make everyday. We know how hard you all are working to bring Jennifer home. Your work and ours are not done until we find Jennifer. We will be there along side of you, supporting your efforts for as long as it takes. You will always have our total respect and admiration for the work you do! Our prayers are with you and your families so that you safely return home to your loved ones everyday.

    Many thanks to the media both locally and nationally - you have shown our family incredible support and compassion when dealing with us. We thank you for being there and keeping Jennifer’s story high in public awareness which is critical in missing person’s cases. You are an integral part of the equation which will ultimately bring Jennifer home. You all have been true professionals and have shown great respect to Jennifer and our family in a most sensitive crime. Please keep her story alive!

    Finally, we ask every reader to please continue to pass on this website to everyone you know and ask them to read about Jennifer’s story and pass it on to everyone they know. Awareness and visibility will help create action and results!

    Please remember that Jennifer is not the only missing/abducted person in Orlando, Florida or our country, and attention is needed to help the families of all missing people, each of us can make a difference!

    Many thanks to all of you,

    Drew, Joyce and Logan Kesse and Rob Allen
