Lead #3Why was a set of keys to Jennifer's condo complex stolen one month before her disappearance, and could this be connected?
Jennifer Joyce Kesse, a 24-year-old finance graduate, disappeared on January 24, 2006, from her Orlando condo after failing to show up for work at Westgate Resorts in Ocoee, Florida. Her car was found abandoned one mile away with surveillance footage showing an unidentified person parking it, though their face was obscured. Nearly 20 years later, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement has identified several persons of interest and announced the case is no longer cold, with new evidence yet to be tested and potential use of artificial intelligence to identify the suspect.
