Kesses Announce Search For Jennifer
26-Year Old Missing More Than Three Years

UPDATED: 7:23 pm EDT July 27, 2009
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Jennifer Kesse's family has announced plans for a renewed search effort for the missing Orlando woman.

Drew and Joyce Kesse announced a "preplanned extensive ground search" with a news release Monday evening.

Kesse has been missing since Jan. 24, 2006.

The search, which will be performed by trained search and rescue teams, is planned for Aug. 1 and 2. The experts will look for Kesse, as well as other missing people in Central Florida, on a volunteer basis.

No law enforcement agencies are involved in the search, but the Kesses said police have been made aware of the search should they need to respond.

Jennifer Kesse

ORLANDO, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35) - The parents of a young woman who disappeared three and a half years ago are starting a renewed effort to find her this coming weekend. Jennifer Kesse went missing from her Orlando condominium near the Mall at Millenia in early 2006. Her car showed up three days later, but there was no sign of Jennifer.

Tips have slowed to a trickle, but her parents refuse to give up in their search. This weekend there will be a renewed effort to find her.

"What it's made up of is basically six or seven groups from around the state of Florida. They're total professionals and we're not even bringing in volunteers for this. It will be strictly a professional search," Jennifer's father, Drew Kesse said.

Kesse said he hopes there is a connection with the case of Tracy Ocasio, another woman who went missing from Orlando.

"Honestly, there's a lot of overlap, and to be quite honest with you, when we go out this weekend there's a lot of overlap in that we'll search areas where Tracy may be," he said.


The search will start early Saturday morning. Searchers will work by ground, boat, and air. They will be looking in areas near Jennifer's condominium, Orlando International Airport, and in Ocoee where Tracy Ocasio vanished in late May.

Teams to mount weekend search for Jennifer Kesse
Teams will be searching for Jennifer Kesse but will also have Tracy Ocasio on their minds.

 Bianca Prieto and Willoughby Mariano  Sentinel Staff Writers

6:06 AM EDT, July 31, 2009
A familiar sight will return to Central Florida this weekend: people searching for a missing loved one.

This time, certified search and rescue teams are looking for missing Orlando resident Jennifer Kesse. But this search could be different from the others because they also will keep their eyes out for missing Ocoee resident Tracy Ocasio.

Some of the search areas for Kesse overlap possible locations where Ocasio may be located, her mother Liz Ocasio said earlier this week.

"The search this weekend is for Jennifer," Liz Ocasio told the Orlando Sentinel earlier this week. "But since some of the areas overlap, they won't just walk over her [tracy Ocasio] if they find her."
A tipster had reported seeing Ocasio's yellow Chevrolet Cobalt parked on the wrong side of a two-lane road near a wooded area the night she disappeared.

That is the first credible tip that police have had about the missing 27-year-old's car since it was found abandoned near James Hataway's home hours after she was reported missing on May 27.

Hataway was the last person to see Tracy Ocasio. He is being held at the Orange County Jail on unrelated drug charges.

Fifty to 70 trained searchers will be involved, as will multiple ATVs, search dogs and boats. Orlando police and the Orange County Sheriff's Office are not involved in the effort.

Kesse disappeared Jan 24, 2006. Police think she was abducted in the area of the Mosaic at Millenia condominium where she lived.

Large scale searches conducted earlier this summer by Texas EquuSearch didn't yield any clues about Ocasio's whereabouts.

Volunteers Search Orange County For Two Missing Women

Posted: 9:06 am EDT August 1, 2009Updated: 9:13 am EDT August 1, 2009
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- Trained search volunteers are searching for two missing women, Jennifer Kesse and Tracy Ocasio.

Searchers gathered Saturday morning with helicopters, K-9 search teams, air boats and ATV’s to look for the missing women.

Ocasio was last seen in May with James Hataway, the prime suspect in her disappearance.

A man who recently returned from Ohio told police he saw what looked like Ocasio’s car, the night she disappeared, near Binion Road and Apopka-Ocoee Road. This tip prompted the search for Ocasio.

The search group was already planning to search this weekend for signs of Jennifer Kesse. She disappeared in 2006

New Search Under Way for Missing Florida Woman Jennifer Kesse

Saturday , August 01, 2009





http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,536040,00.html

Family members launched a search for new clues Saturday in the case of a Florida woman believed to have been abducted from her home near a mall more than three years ago, MyFOXOrlando.com reported.

It wasn't clear whether there was anything specific that prompted the latest effort to find evidence about the 2006 disappearance of the 24-year-old woman, Jennifer Kesse.

About 70 certified volunteer searchers from around the state arrived in Orlando on Friday to help Kesse's parents find their missing daughter.

The trained searchers, many of whom are former or current firefighters, are funding the effort out of their own pockets, according to the local FOX affiliate.

Crews will be searching within a three-mile radius around John Young Parkway and Conroy Road on Saturday and Sunday. They'll use airboats with sonar, an amphibious vehicle, a remote-controlled drone airplane and cadaver dogs.

“This search is a joint ... effort with FL-3 ASAR as the sponsor of this mission working with five other top-notch certified search teams in Florida," according to a statement on a Web site established to find Kesse. "All six teams will take an equal part in this ... mission."

Kesse, who managed timeshare finances at a real estate company, was last heard from the night of Jan. 23, 2006, and never went to work as scheduled the next morning.

Her abandoned car was discovered about a mile from her Orlando home. Surveillance video taken on the grounds of her apartment complex shows an unknown man parking her black Chevrolet Malibu on the afternoon of Jan. 24.

There is a $10,000 reward for any information that leads authorities to the driver caught on camera.

Parents of 27-year-old Tracy Ocasio, who has been missing from a nearby neighborhood bar since May, hope the Kesse search crews will find clues leading to their daughter as well.

James Hataway, a person of interest in that case, is in jail on unrelated charges.

In January of this year, a convicted killer contacted Kesse's father saying he had information about his daughter's disappearance. David Russ, who in May was sentenced to death for the 2007 murder of 58-year-old Madeleine Leinen, asked to meet with Drew Kesse about Jennifer.

Detectives doubted Russ' claims, which did not lead to a break in the case.

There have been few other leads since Jennifer Kesse vanished. Months after her disappearance, her photo turned up on dating Web sites for lesbians and the elderly.

Anyone with any information is encouraged to call the Orlando Police Department at (407) 246-2470 or the Kesse family tip line at (407) 722-2162.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- A large-scale search effort kicked off Saturday morning to find two missing Central Florida women.

Jennifer Kesse has been missing since 2006, and Tracy Ocasio disappeared in May.
Watch video.  http://www.wesh.com/video/20248240/index.html
Trained volunteers from across the state met at the First Baptist Church of Orlando Saturday morning.

The searchers used K-9 units, all-terrain vehicles and high-tech equipment to try to find the women.

"How do you decide? I don't understand when people ask us, 'When will you give up?'" said Joyce Kesse, Jennifer's mother. "I just can't wrap my head around it."

Joyce and her husband, Drew, stood united on Saturday, front and center as professional searchers prepared to head out and look for their daughter.

The last time anyone saw Jennifer Kesse was Jan. 24, 2006. Authorities said they believe someone abducted her at or near her Orlando apartment in the Mosaic at Millenia condo complex.

Almost four years later, her parents seemed as hopeful as ever and refused to give up on finding their only daughter.

"We're not letting evil win twice," Joyce Kesse said. "That's probably one of our biggest things. Evil will not win twice."

"We have lives," Drew Kesse said. "We understand bad happens, we do. We are doing things about it. It just can't rip you until you can't do anything about it...then what good are you?"
Searchers are trekking through the thick brush in the heat, hoping to find any clues over the weekend.

Mike Coffey, a professional and certified searcher with Search and Rescue of Central Florida, is also a schoolteacher.

"I take the love of helping people and the love of being in the woods and, voila, I am here," he said.

When asked if he'd ever give up, he said, "No not at all. There's always hope, you know? You just keep doing what you can do and keep hoping."

The Kesses said they'll never give up hope for their daughter.

The search for her and Ocasio will resume Sunday morning.

Searchers Halt For The Day In Kesse, Ocasio Cases
Saturday, August 01, 2009 3:04:23 PM


Reported By Nick VinZant

ORLANDO -- More than six hours of searching Saturday produced no evidence in the disappearance of Jennifer Kesse, a woman who disappeared without a trace in 2006.

For the latest search, half a dozen teams of certified search and rescue volunteers looked at areas by her home near the Mall at Millenia. The search was centered around the intersection of John Young Parkway and Presidents Drive.

These same spots were covered before but searchers didn't find anything.

Neither Orlando police nor Orange County deputies are involved in today's search.

The volunteers covered a three-mile radius around the intersection and called it off to avoid rising temperature. But they will return Sunday.

"It's painful for me. We know the statistics and we know the realities," said Joyce Kesse, Jennifer's mom.
The searchers relied on an unusual tool, a radio-controlled aircraft equipped with a remote control camera.
 
The only clue in the case is a three-year-old surveillance video of a man seen getting out of her car nearby then walking away.

Kesse is not the only case volunteers are looking into.

Searchers also covered the same ground looking out for any signs of Tracy Ocasio of Ocoee who has been missing since May.

Some areas in the Kesse case overlap areas where they are seeking clues in the Ocasio search.

Police are still examining a credible tip in the Ocasio case after a man came forward saying he saw Ocasio's car parked along a road the night she disappeared. The yellow Chevrolet Cobalt was seen parked on the wrong side of a two-lane road near a wooded area around the time she disappeared.

Saturday marked the first time Kesse's parents met Liz Ocasio, Tracy's mom.

Liz Ocasio vowed in July to dog James Hataway, possibly the last person to see Tracy Ocasio, at every court appearance.

Tracy Ocasio has been missing since she gave James Hataway a ride home from a MetroWest bar.

Hataway remains the only person of interest in her disappearance.

Volunteers Search For Jennifer Kesse

Posted: 9:06 am EDT August 1, 2009Updated: 6:44 pm EDT August 1, 2009
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- A new search is underway in Orange County Jennifer Kesse.

Kesse disappeared in January of 2006 when she was abducted outside her Orlando apartment.

Several search groups gathered at the search command post Saturday morning to go over what areas they would be searching.

In addition to manpower, searchers used an amphibious car, K-9 search teams, and airboats in an attempt to rule out more areas where Kesse could be.

For Jennifer’s mother, Joyce Kesse, their search seems endless, but the searching helps, even if nothing is found.

"We don't know what happened. We don't know if she's dead, but hopefully something will be revealed."

The search will continue all weekend. Local law enforcement is not involved in the search but say they will be ready and available if anything is found.

At one point, search teams were also going to search an area of interest in the case of Missing Ocoee woman Tracy Ocasio. They have since decided to call off that search, saying the Kesse search area is so large they wont have the time or resources to search another area.

Crews look for signs of Jennifer Kesse
 By Ricardo Ramírez Buxeda  Sentinel Staff Writer

August 2, 2009
Dozens of searchers from across Florida began a weekend quest looking for remains of a woman missing from her Orlando neighborhood since 2006.

Jennifer Kesse disappeared Jan. 24, 2006. She was 24 at the time, and police think she was abducted from the Mosaic at Millenia condominium where she lived.

Searchers spent hours Saturday marching through woods and homeless camps but came up empty-handed.

They were looking for any clues to her disappearance in an area stretching from near Orlando International Airport to portions of Ocoee. That is where the search for another missing woman, Tracy Ocasio, 27, has focused.

There might be some overlap in the search, but there was none Saturday.

The search crews need no volunteers and will be out in force again

Kesse, Ocasio Search Ends With No New Clues
Sunday, August 02, 2009 3:18:09 PM

ORLANDO -- The newest search for Jennifer Kesse wrapped up Sunday with no signs of the missing Orlando woman.
   
Nearly three dozen specially trained volunteers, along with search dogs, were back out near Kesse's home near the Mall at Millenia searching for any signs that could help in the investigation.

Searchers went into the weekend knowing it would be tough to find any clues.  But they say their work in Central Florida may not be done.
   
They now say they're working on a new search for missing Ocoee woman Tracy Ocasio.

"That is in the planning stage at this point,” said searcher Joe St. Cyr.  “We've been in the planning stages with the family, but we also need to contact Ocoee police before we do any type of search but that is in the works at this time."

Ocasio hasn't been seen since late May when she left a MetroWest bar with James Hataway.  He's a person of interest in the case.  Hataway is behind bars on other charges.

No New Clues Found In Kesse Search
Kesse's Parents Won't Give Up Hope


POSTED: 6:03 am EDT August 3, 2009
UPDATED: 6:42 am EDT August 3, 2009
ORLANDO, Fla. -- An intense search over the weekend failed to reveal any new clues to locate an Orlando woman who disappeared more than three years ago.

Searchers spent the weekend looking for clues in several areas of Orange County. Kesse's parents said the search is far from over.

K-9 units assisted in the search. Amaretto is a chocolate labrador retriever, who is 3 years old and certified by the National Association for Search and Rescue. She's in training to find human remains.

"The dogs can smell things that we can't. They smell things and detect things we can't detect," K-9 handler Whitney Hart said.
Because of their heightened senses, Amaretto can play a critical role in searching for the missing. As crews looked for Kesse, Amaretto, who is still in training, stayed back, but she'll soon be ready for duty.

"When they indicate or find something, it depends on the moment. It's sometimes very emotional, and sometimes it's overwhelming. You are kind of caught up in the moment," Hart said.

It can be a moment that those who've spent countless hours searching by foot, all-terrain vehicle and airboat hoped for.

"It's bringing peace and closure to the family. Not knowing where someone is, to me, is the worst fear," Hart said.

Kesse's parents, Drew and Joyce Kesse, want peace and closure. But until that day comes, they have the support of agencies across the state, and the support is hard to miss.

"You have a lot of people that have no motive other than the passion in their heart, than the willingness, the desire and the training to try to help," Joyce Kesse said.

Your welcome.

It was brief tonight, but she said both families will be on tomorrow.  A man who was away on a trip, returned and heard about the yellow car - he saw a yellow car parked backwards somewhere (I didn't catch where) and the lead is promising - so JVM makes it sound so.  Looks like they are trying to get another search together for this weekend - hope to find both girls.
