2:02
Speaker 1: Nippers say the fifty two year old was dealing with
2:04
Speaker 1: a lot in this past year. I don't think too
2:07
Speaker 1: much of anybody had really hurts from her. She kind
2:10
Speaker 1: of cut everybody off. But when friends received the news
2:13
Speaker 1: she disappeared, leaving behind her phone while at keys and purse,
2:17
Speaker 1: they knew something wasn't right. I don't feel like she
2:21
Speaker 1: left of her own free will, and I don't feel
2:25
Speaker 1: like she's staying gone by her own free will. I
2:28
Speaker 1: feel like something happened to her. If you're going to
2:32
Speaker 1: go away just for two or three days, what woman
2:34
Speaker 1: leaves the purse behind? Longtime friend Tracy Hohenstein writes mystery
2:38
Speaker 1: novels for a living, but this isn't one of her books.
2:41
Speaker 1: This is real life, and she can't control what comes next.
2:45
Speaker 1: You know, every time I find out something, there's another question.
2:48
Speaker 1: So coming up with more questions than I am answers.
2:52
Speaker 1: Well versed in her career as a suspense author, Hoenstein
2:55
Speaker 1: knew where to begin, creating missing posters with her friend's
2:58
Speaker 1: face plastered on them and talk with anyone who might
3:01
Speaker 1: know something. I start from the beginning, just like I would,
3:06
Speaker 1: you know, with when I'm writing my books. Just go
3:08
Speaker 1: from the beginning, what happened? Who was the last person
3:11
Speaker 1: to see her? You know who her friends and family are?
3:16
Speaker 1: What would she do in the last couple of days. However,
3:19
Speaker 1: she also knows how many of her stories end. Did
3:21
Speaker 1: The longer person goes missing, it's it gets tougher to
3:25
Speaker 1: find them, and you definitely don't want the trail to
3:28
Speaker 1: go cold. And yeah, your mind starts going, Okay, they
3:31
Speaker 1: haven't it's been forty eight it's been seventy two hours.
3:34
Speaker 1: They haven't shown up, and then you have to start
3:37
Speaker 1: thinking about other things. Hohenstein continues to play her role
3:40
Speaker 1: as a friend while investigators work to find Danielle Nipper.

Speaker 1: men who worked as extras on the hit Fox TV show.
5:49
Speaker 1: The two men for an hour not being called suspects
5:52
Speaker 1: but our persons of interest. Their attorney, Gloria Schmidt says,
5:55
Speaker 1: they do both know Smolette, the people of interest my clients.
6:00
Speaker 1: They do know Jesse, they have worked with him on Empire.
6:05
Speaker 1: My preliminary investigations show that the on set, it's very tight.
6:10
Speaker 1: They're all very cordial with each other, so they're baffled
6:15
Speaker 1: why they are people of interest. TMZ is reporting that
6:19
Speaker 1: while Smolette says the two attackers were white and are
6:23
Speaker 1: the two men seen in security video, police say the

Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace, Drew Kessie has and says
6:57
Speaker 1: he will continue to ask the public for tips as
7:01
Speaker 1: to where his daughter Jennifer might be. No One, no
7:04
Speaker 1: one should go through not being found, not for the family.
7:10
Speaker 1: No one should not be found. The then twenty four
7:13
Speaker 1: year old disappeared without a trace. Orlanda Police detectives say
7:17
Speaker 1: their strongest piece of evidence is surveillance image of a
7:20
Speaker 1: person of interest, as well as Jennifer's car, which was
7:24
Speaker 1: found at a condo complex about a mile from where
7:27
Speaker 1: she lived. According to Orlanda Police, their current focus is
7:31
Speaker 1: re examining and resubmitting evidence from that car, hoping strides
7:36
Speaker 1: in crime lab technology will result in new leads. A
7:40
Speaker 1: lot of the testing that's been done can be redone
7:44
Speaker 1: with these new kids, So most of it's we're concentrating
7:47
Speaker 1: on Jennifer's vehicle. We think the answers probably lie there.
7:50
Speaker 1: Someone saw something, and it's just it's so has time
8:03
Speaker 1: to have closure. Since Kessie's disappearance, thousands of tips have
8:08
Speaker 1: come into the family and through crime line. Orlanda Police
8:11
Speaker 1: Chief John Minas as his staff will continue those efforts.
8:15
Speaker 1: We will never forget Jennifer. We will never give up
8:18
Speaker 1: our search to find Jennifer. Our friends at WKMG News six, Ororlando,
8:24
Speaker 1: reporting on the very latest in the search for a
8:27
Speaker 1: beautiful young girl. Jennifer Kessie with me right now, in
8:33
Speaker 1: addition to psychologist Karen Stark, judge and lawyer Ashley Wilcot

8:42
Speaker 1: Beneath My Feet, Joe Scott Morgan, Director of the Cold
8:45
Speaker 1: Case Research Institute, Cheryl McCollum. Special guests joining me now,
8:50
Speaker 1: Drew and Joyce Kessie, the parents of Jennifer. Welcome to everyone.
8:57
Speaker 1: First to Joyce Jessie. This is Jennifer Kesey's mom. Joyce.
9:04
Speaker 1: I think about you and Drew and Jennifer so often,
9:10
Speaker 1: and I go back over and over and over the facts.
9:16
Speaker 1: I know that right now there's a lot breaking in
9:20
Speaker 1: your world, a lot of breaking news regarding a lawsuit,
9:25
Speaker 1: regarding a go fund me, all with the aim of
9:30
Speaker 1: finding the truth about the whereabouts of your daughter. But
9:35
Speaker 1: when you look back, what do you recall about that day,
9:42
Speaker 1: Because that's where it all starts and ends, that day
9:46
Speaker 1: that Jennifer goes missing. What do I recall? I recall
9:51
Speaker 1: arriving at the time Dominium Complex and there being a
9:55
Speaker 1: multitude of workers just going about their business because it
10:02
Speaker 1: was the condo to apartment to condo conversion, and I
10:08
Speaker 1: just remember high anxiety on our family behalf as we
10:12
Speaker 1: drove to Orlando, and the nightmare began. And the nightmare began.
10:21
Speaker 1: When you say the nightmare began, what do you mean
10:25
Speaker 1: by that. Jennifer's journey, the journey to find Jennifer. The
10:31
Speaker 1: journey not so much at this point to find out
10:36
Speaker 1: exactly who did it, but we need closure. We need
10:39
Speaker 1: to find Jennifer, and that's our goal, is to give
10:47
Speaker 1: Jennifer the best chance. I mean, thirteen years is just
10:53
Speaker 1: it's surreal into itself that it's thirteen years, Nancy, but
10:59
Speaker 1: yet here we are. So that's why we're moving forward
11:02
Speaker 1: with trying to get answers from law enforcement so that
11:09
Speaker 1: a private investigator may be able to look at the
11:12
Speaker 1: records and come up with something different, because Orlando Police
11:18
Speaker 1: has never had a suspect in thirteen years. To Drew Cassie,
11:24
Speaker 1: Jennifer's father, Drew, I want to backtrack, as we often do,
11:30
Speaker 1: to start at the beginning. What happened in your world today?
11:36
Speaker 1: Jennifer went missing? Well, it was January twenty four, two
11:39
Speaker 1: thousand and six, first thing on the boarding and I
11:43
Speaker 1: was working as normal and Joyce as working as normal,
11:45
Speaker 1: and Logan was living with us, her brother at the time.
11:49
Speaker 1: He was out at the gym, and we got a
11:51
Speaker 1: call from a good friend of mine who also works
11:54
Speaker 1: at Jennifer's work, and he asked if Jennifer was okay,
11:57
Speaker 1: so she didn't show up for work, and I said, well,
12:00
Speaker 1: as far as I know, she's okay, let me give
12:02
Speaker 1: her a call and I'll find out. And for the
12:05
Speaker 1: first time since he was sixteen years old, when we
12:08
Speaker 1: gave her phone in a car, when I called her,
12:11
Speaker 1: it went directly into voicemail, didn't ring four times as
12:15
Speaker 1: it normally does. It went directly into voicemail, and at
12:19
Speaker 1: that second I knew something was wrong. So I got
12:24
Speaker 1: in touch with Joyce. She was at work, and we
12:27
Speaker 1: started to immediately call friends, called police, call hospitals, and
12:33
Speaker 1: make our way to Orlando, where she just bought a
12:36
Speaker 1: brand new condominium for herself and was doing very well.
12:41
Speaker 1: And that's how it started. We called the police and
12:47
Speaker 1: we were met with an officer that said, well, she
12:50
Speaker 1: probably had a fight with a boyfriend and she'll be
12:52
Speaker 1: back and he walked out, and that's when we started
12:56
Speaker 1: to lose, to be up front with you, but it
13:00
Speaker 1: has not progressed since January twenty sixth or twenty seventh,
13:06
Speaker 1: when her car was found one mile down the road
13:10
Speaker 1: in a very poor condo complex, and we have film
13:15
Speaker 1: of a gentleman getting out of that car that he
13:19
Speaker 1: parked and walking away and ever looking back, and we
13:21
Speaker 1: cannot find that person either. But that's where it has stuck.
13:26
Speaker 1: It has stuck on day three when Jennifer was taken,
13:33
Speaker 1: and we have not been able to move the case
13:36
Speaker 1: forward whatsoever, which is why, thirteen years later, we have
13:41
Speaker 1: no other choice than to put our own team together
13:44
Speaker 1: legally and investigatively and do justice for Jennifer and find her.
13:53
Speaker 1: That's the most important thing is to find Jennifer. Guys,
13:56
Speaker 1: I want to pause right here in saying our partner
13:59

14:04

14:13

15:22
Speaker 1: Blink thank you for making today's program possible. At the
15:26
Speaker 1: Orlando Police Department, we never stop searching for missing persons,
15:31
Speaker 1: but today we're announcing an enhanced focus on the Jennifer
15:35
Speaker 1: Kesse investigation and renewing our plea for anyone with information
15:40
Speaker 1: to come forward and help us solve this case. You
15:45
Speaker 1: Through the years, the public's interest in this case has
15:48
Speaker 1: not waned. That is due in large part to Drew
15:51
Speaker 1: and Joyce and who have been committed to keeping this
15:55
Speaker 1: case in the public eye. And it's worked. This case
16:01
Speaker 1: continues to generate tips. So I'm announcing today that Orlando
16:06
Speaker 1: Police Department Detective Teresa's Sprague, we'll focus exclusively on this case.
16:14
Speaker 1: She's going to pour through the thousands of pages of
16:16
Speaker 1: documents and case files and the hundreds of tips with
16:19
Speaker 1: a fresh set of eyes. We were also announcing today
16:24
Speaker 1: that the crime line reward has been up to fifteen
16:27
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. We'll never stop looking for Jennifer. I was
16:31
Speaker 1: working tonight she went missing. I remember to talking to
16:35
Speaker 1: Drew on the phone, and I remember hearing the voice
16:39
Speaker 1: of a very concerned and upset father, and I'll never
16:42
Speaker 1: forget it. It is not lost on me after twelve years.
16:45
Speaker 1: What an enormous task this will be. Some of our
16:49
Speaker 1: most experienced detectives have been assigned to this case. I'm
16:52
Speaker 1: the next person in charge of it, and I look
16:55
Speaker 1: forward to the opportunity. I want to start from the
16:59
Speaker 1: day Jennifer or went missing. The day she should have
17:02
Speaker 1: shown up and went to work like every other day.
17:05
Speaker 1: We're going to start with the first week, the first
17:08
Speaker 1: few tips. Again. If you've called in tips in the
17:11
Speaker 1: past and you think that we need to take a
17:13
Speaker 1: fresh look at what you said, please call those in again.
17:17
Speaker 1: We need to know who this missing, who this person
17:20
Speaker 1: of interest is. That is the key to finding Jennifer
17:24
Speaker 1: and bringing her home and giving the answer to her
17:27
Speaker 1: family that they so desperately want and deserve. We're going
17:31
Speaker 1: to start from the beginning. We're gonna take a fresh
17:34
Speaker 1: look at every tip from the first day through last
17:37
Speaker 1: week and see if a pattern develops. Because there's been
17:41
Speaker 1: so many tips called in in Jennifer's case over the
17:43
Speaker 1: last twelve years, it's imperative that someone take a really
17:47
Speaker 1: long look at this exclusively and see what we can
17:50
Speaker 1: figure out. Is there something we missed. It's certainly possible
17:55
Speaker 1: that there is. Is there something that's happened in the
17:57
Speaker 1: last five to six years that we need to compare
18:00
Speaker 1: to the first two weeks and see if a pattern develops.
18:04
Speaker 1: We need the public's help. We cannot emphasize that enough.
18:08
Speaker 1: If you know who this person of interest is, please
18:11
Speaker 1: call us, Come talk to me and let's bring Jennifer home.
18:15
Speaker 1: Is it a day late and a dollar short? Is
18:19
Speaker 1: their hope of finding Jennifer Kessy with me? In addition
18:23
Speaker 1: to Cheryl McCollum, just Scott Morgan, Ashley Wilcott, and Karen Stark,
18:27
Speaker 1: Drew and Joyce Kessie joining me the parents of Jennifer.
18:33
Speaker 1: To Cheryl McCollum, director of the Cold Case Research Institute,
18:36
Speaker 1: I wonder if the Orlando police decision to refocus on
18:41
Speaker 1: Jennifer had anything to do with a lawsuit her family
18:46
Speaker 1: has filed. I mean, does it really take that to
18:50
Speaker 1: get answers? Sadly, in this case, it looks like it did.
18:54
Speaker 1: Believe Nancy, They've got forty three binders of animation. Why
19:01
Speaker 1: not let the family look through it at this point.
19:05
Speaker 1: It's not like this case is a week old. Say
19:08
Speaker 1: that thirteen years Nancy. Let her mamma look at it
19:13
Speaker 1: and say this doesn't seem right. I know this name
19:17
Speaker 1: or possibly this can't be right at all. Let them
19:21
Speaker 1: help in this case. What does that mean to you?
19:24
Speaker 1: Drew Cassie, Is it true you have not been able
19:27
Speaker 1: to review police files? Yes? Absolutely, and in fact, that
19:31
Speaker 1: recording that you just played our lead detective saying that
19:34
Speaker 1: she's starting from the beginning and assigned she had the
19:38
Speaker 1: case seven years at that point. So you're just we're
19:43
Speaker 1: getting lip service, unfortunately, and that's what we're doing legally now,
19:47
Speaker 1: is to try and get in there. But yes, we
19:50
Speaker 1: truly believe that, given the opportunity, we know just as
19:56
Speaker 1: much as they do about this case. We've been there
20:00
Speaker 1: stay one. We've been standing next to them since day one.
20:03
Speaker 1: But yet we don't have all the information they do.
20:06
Speaker 1: We do have an investigative team, Yet what is their
20:09
Speaker 1: explanation to you as to why they won't let you
20:12
Speaker 1: look at the files? It will set precedence that if
20:16
Speaker 1: it is an open and active case, that they will
20:19
Speaker 1: never share any information, not even with the family. No,
20:27
Speaker 1: that is outrageous to Ashley Wolcott, judge lawyer. You can
20:31
Speaker 1: find her Ashley Wolcott dot com. Ashley gen you imagine
20:35
Speaker 1: police not sharing information with you if your child is missing. No,
20:41
Speaker 1: and so first and foremost to both of you, I
20:45
Speaker 1: can't even imagine. And thank gosh, because I see children
20:49
Speaker 1: who don't have families to advocate for them and to
20:52
Speaker 1: push an investigation forward. I'm so appreciative that you both
20:56
Speaker 1: are there to do it. You deserve the closure your
20:59
Speaker 1: seek and Nancy, here's the thing, I completely agree that
21:05
Speaker 1: if this had happened within the last year, for instance, yes,
21:09
Speaker 1: open investigation, maybe you shouldn't couldn't share records with family
21:13
Speaker 1: at this point, this many years later, I would hope
21:17
Speaker 1: you would embrace the help, the extra set of eyes
21:21
Speaker 1: people who knew her best, knew her better than anyone,
21:25
Speaker 1: to look at these records. There's no reason I could
21:28
Speaker 1: think of they should not be given access. You know
21:30
Speaker 1: that that's just a huge, huge slap in the face.
21:33
Speaker 1: And also to learn this investigator talking about detective We're
21:37
Speaker 1: gonna put fresh eyes on it. She's had it for
21:39
Speaker 1: seven years and it takes a lawsuit to get fresh
21:42
Speaker 1: eyes on it. Cheryl McCollum, Cole Case Research Institute Director.
21:46
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the day that Jennifer goes missing. Start
21:50
Speaker 1: at the beginning, Cheryl, what happened, Mafia looked like she
21:53
Speaker 1: got up and got ready for work. Howell, her brand
21:56
Speaker 1: new pumps were missing, some closure on the back and
22:00
Speaker 1: four that she working up before for jamas, you know,
22:03
Speaker 1: and her car is missing and she doesn't show up
22:06
Speaker 1: for work, and the people at her job call her
22:08
Speaker 1: dad and say, hey, she hasn't shown up, which is
22:10
Speaker 1: completely unlike her. She always takes or cause her boyfriend
22:15
Speaker 1: that morning on the way to work that didn't happen either,
22:18
Speaker 1: and calls it, going straight to her voicemail at eight o'clock.
22:22
Speaker 1: So she is missing by eight o'clock in the morning.
22:25
Speaker 1: The last communication anybody had with her was ten o'clock
22:28
Speaker 1: the night before. So her car is then found in
22:33
Speaker 1: an apartment complex at noon. So we have a four
22:38
Speaker 1: hour window where something terribly goes wrong. To Joseph's Goot Morgan,
22:43
Speaker 1: forensics expert, Professor Forensics, Jacksonville State University and author of
22:47
Speaker 1: Blood Beneath My Feet on Amazon, just got Morgan. I've
22:51
Speaker 1: gone over and over and over the scene that morning
22:55
Speaker 1: where Jennifer we last know that she was alive and
22:59
Speaker 1: well in her condo. What jumps out at you regarding
23:04
Speaker 1: that scene? I think the thing, kind of going back
23:07
Speaker 1: to what Cheryl said was the freshness of everything that
23:10
Speaker 1: had occurred within there. You have specific evidence of the
23:14
Speaker 1: fact that she was just going about her daily business
23:17
Speaker 1: as as you know, as she normally would, you know,
23:22
Speaker 1: getting ready for work, all this sort of thing, and
23:24
Speaker 1: Cheryl talked about a window relative to this is for
23:28
Speaker 1: our period. The window I'm concerned about is now, all
23:32
Speaker 1: of these years later. In that evidence that they have,
23:34
Speaker 1: she had mentioned new technologies and all that sort of thing,
23:38
Speaker 1: and my guide is just sitting there and no one
23:41
Speaker 1: has truly have a new set of eyes on this thing.
23:45
Speaker 1: And I understand that it's currently under investigation, but they
23:48
Speaker 1: really need to get a fire lit under them. And
23:50
Speaker 1: I think the family is doing the right thing. I
23:52
Speaker 1: think they are too, and I usually do not advocate
23:54
Speaker 1: suing a police department, but this is crazy. It's crazy
24:01
Speaker 1: to Joyce Cassie, Jennifer's mother, what led you to go
24:05
Speaker 1: along with the lawsuit? Answers? Wanting to find the answers,
24:10
Speaker 1: and again it's trying to find justice. We're having a
24:16
Speaker 1: really hard time comprehending law enforcement not wanting to share
24:23
Speaker 1: the information because they're saying that the case is active.
24:28
Speaker 1: And as Drew mentioned that it would set precedence for
24:31
Speaker 1: the family to look at the records, it's not per
24:35
Speaker 1: se that we want to. We want a private eye
24:39
Speaker 1: to be able to look at these records as well
24:42
Speaker 1: and try to see if Orlando didn't miss something. I mean,
24:48
Speaker 1: it's just insane that with the immediate response that we
24:53
Speaker 1: had to Jennifer not showing up for work, that we
24:56
Speaker 1: don't have any answers that we've never had a suspect.
25:02
Speaker 1: It's very, very sad. Take a listen to this, Miss Cassie.
25:07
Speaker 1: What more can you tell me about what time? If
25:09
Speaker 1: you know that she would contact her boyfriend in the morning, Well,
25:14
Speaker 1: jen typically left for work between seven thirty and eight
25:17
Speaker 1: in the morning, and it was her habit to call
25:20
Speaker 1: Rob when she got in her car, So as she
25:24
Speaker 1: got in her car and was driving to work is
25:26
Speaker 1: when she would make that good morning call. And as
25:32
Speaker 1: we know, Rob never received that call. Drew, tell me
25:35
Speaker 1: the condition of her apartment. Her condition, It was obviously
25:41
Speaker 1: brand new, she had just purchased. I mean that morning,
25:44
Speaker 1: what did it look like. Had she made her hair
25:47
Speaker 1: or what? No, No, it looked like she slept in
25:52
Speaker 1: her bed. She had two or three outfits laid out
25:54
Speaker 1: on the bed as if she was choosing an outfit
25:56
Speaker 1: to wear. She as was stated, the bathroom looked like
26:02
Speaker 1: someone got ready to go to work. The rest of
26:04
Speaker 1: the condo was just perfect data. Honestly, looked like a
26:07
Speaker 1: maid came through right down to a full setting, four
26:11
Speaker 1: piece setting, table setting on our dining room table. Hi,
26:23
Speaker 1: Nancy Grays here, have you ever Googled yourself, your neighbors,
26:26
Speaker 1: somebody at work a crush? Fifty seven percent of Americans
26:30
Speaker 1: admits keeping an eye on their own online reputation. Forty
26:34
Speaker 1: six admit to using the Internet to look up somebody
26:37
Speaker 1: from their past. But Google and Facebook the tip of
26:41
Speaker 1: the iceberg when it comes to finding personal information. There's
26:44
Speaker 1: an innovative new website called truth Finder. It's now revealing
26:48
Speaker 1: the full scoop on millions of Americans. Truthfinder can search
26:52
Speaker 1: through hundreds of millions of public records in a matter
26:55
Speaker 1: of minutes. Truth Finder members can literally begin search in
27:00
Speaker 1: seconds for sense of data like criminal traffic arrest records.
27:05
Speaker 1: Before you bring someone new into your life and around
27:08
Speaker 1: the people you care for your children, consider using Truthfinder.
27:14
Speaker 1: What you find may astound you. Go to truthfinder dot
27:17
Speaker 1: com forward slash Nancy right away to start searching truthfinder
27:22
Speaker 1: dot com forward slash Nancy Truthfinder dot com forward slash Nancy.
27:29
Speaker 1: Find the truth crime stories with Nancy Grace. Then it
27:40
Speaker 1: is the second revelation in two days for a case
27:42
Speaker 1: that almost fell off the radar. You're in Central Florida.
27:45
Speaker 1: The first grainy surveillance video from the Huntington Green's apartment complex.
27:50
Speaker 1: It shows Cassie's car the day she disappeared, around one
27:52
Speaker 1: in the afternoon January twenty fourth of two thousand and six.
27:56
Speaker 1: This parking lot is about a mile from where Kessie lived,
27:58
Speaker 1: near the mall at Millennium. The person driving the car
28:01
Speaker 1: gets out and starts walking around. The cops are just
28:04
Speaker 1: now telling us what that person left behind in the car,
28:06
Speaker 1: A fingerprint and possible DNA. Her fixture is still up
28:10
Speaker 1: all over Central Florida, but the leads have started to dwindle. Tonight.
28:13
Speaker 1: Police are hoping the release of this video information about
28:16
Speaker 1: the fingerprints and possible DNA will generate some more tips
28:19
Speaker 1: and hopefully lead to Jennifer Kessey. It's all about awareness
28:22
Speaker 1: when you're trying to find I'm missing left Blok. So
28:25
Speaker 1: what does the release of this new information and this
28:27
Speaker 1: new video mean for their daughter's case. I invited former
28:31
Speaker 1: police chief and Seminal Community College professor Richard Winblatt to
28:34
Speaker 1: our station to take a close look at the video.
28:37
Speaker 1: You're if you're living with someone, you know what shoes
28:41
Speaker 1: they wear? Do you know how they walk? Something about
28:44
Speaker 1: this night spark a chord and somebody else. He says,
28:47
Speaker 1: it's possible even this grainy, faraway shot will trigger someone's
28:51
Speaker 1: memory and provide for a tip that could blow this
28:54
Speaker 1: case wide open. Like the person's shoes and socks, Wineblatt says,
28:58
Speaker 1: a lot of people might not wear white socks with
29:00
Speaker 1: dark shoes. The smallest things can help. So what about
29:04
Speaker 1: the timing of all of this fifteen months after her disappearance?
29:08
Speaker 1: Why release this video now information is withheld and release
29:11
Speaker 1: the different as the investigation because they want to try
29:14
Speaker 1: to preserve the integrity of the investigation. Our friends at
29:17
Speaker 1: Parks thirty five in Orlando. That was fifteen months after
29:20
Speaker 1: Jennifer Kessey went missing. Now we are going on to
29:24
Speaker 1: year thirteen and no answers. It has taken a lawsuit
29:28
Speaker 1: by her family to try and get those files in
29:31
Speaker 1: addition to a go fund me. You know when you
29:35
Speaker 1: hear that to you, Drew Cassey, Jennifer's father, that they
29:39
Speaker 1: were saying they wanted to protect the integrity of the
29:42
Speaker 1: investigation by not releasing video of the person getting out
29:47
Speaker 1: of her car fifteen months after the incident. It just
29:52
Speaker 1: sounds like the same thing all over again. Drew, It is,
29:57
Speaker 1: it is, there's there's just you know, they our very
30:02
Speaker 1: first detective team said that they would never release that
30:06
Speaker 1: tape ever because they were going to catch somebody in
30:09
Speaker 1: a lie, which we can understand. But when it's gone
30:13
Speaker 1: on so long, you hear, we're hearing what's happening. As
30:16
Speaker 1: you said, fifteen months, not even two years, and we're
30:19
Speaker 1: at thirteen years and we're on Groundhog Day. I can
30:22
Speaker 1: tell you the same thing today as I just said that.
30:25
Speaker 1: When you say groundhog Day, just means like the movie
30:29
Speaker 1: groundhn Day, over and over and over, the same thing happening.
30:35
Speaker 1: And in the middle of all this, your daughter is missing.
30:38
Speaker 1: To Joe Scot Morgan, forensics expert, let's talk about the
30:41
Speaker 1: car wag in. Hey, listen, Nancy, this is the one
30:45
Speaker 1: spot where we have an individual that, to the best
30:49
Speaker 1: of my knowledge, did not previously have access to the car.
30:53
Speaker 1: You know, I'm speculating here that was contained in an environment.
30:56
Speaker 1: I want everybody at home to think about this. When
30:58
Speaker 1: you get in your are There are various what we
31:01
Speaker 1: refer to as points of contact in that environment, where
31:05
Speaker 1: your rear end is positioned, where your hand is positioned,
31:09
Speaker 1: you know where your feet are position and every just
31:11
Speaker 1: like Lecard said over one hundred years ago, every contact
31:16
Speaker 1: leaves a trace. So in this environment, where did this
31:20
Speaker 1: individual put his hands? Where could he have left fibers
31:24
Speaker 1: behind on the headrest? Did he actually leave hairs there?
31:28
Speaker 1: And I want to know how thoroughly this car was
31:30
Speaker 1: searched by the teams at that particular time and what
31:34
Speaker 1: did they collect because at a period of time the
31:38
Speaker 1: car was finally released to the family, did they cover
31:41
Speaker 1: everything they possibly could during that period, during that golden
31:45
Speaker 1: period of time to collect all of this evidence, the
31:48
Speaker 1: golden period of time to collect evidence to Joyce, Cassie,
31:53
Speaker 1: Jennifer's mother, Joyce, when your husband Drew said this deja vu,
31:59
Speaker 1: same thing, Groundhog Day all over again. Tell me where
32:04
Speaker 1: you summon the strength to keep trying, because it's just
32:09
Speaker 1: got to be overwhelming, just one obstacle after the next,
32:12
Speaker 1: after the next, after the next. For you guys, it
32:15
Speaker 1: is overwhelming. But it's for the love of Jen that
32:20
Speaker 1: we'll keep fighting the fight to find answers and to
32:24
Speaker 1: you know, finally bring her home. It's strictly loving your child,
32:32
Speaker 1: your child, your children, and wanting answers. I mean, it
32:36
Speaker 1: defies logic how something like this could happen, and yet
32:41
Speaker 1: it's happened, and here we sit, as Drew said, groundhog day,
32:45
Speaker 1: every day is the same. We don't have answers, and
32:48
Speaker 1: it doesn't appear as if we're any closer to getting answers.
32:52
Speaker 1: Joyce Kessie. That morning, how did you first learn that
32:56
Speaker 1: anything was wrong, anything was out of the ordinance? By
32:59
Speaker 1: getting a phone call from Drew from Jennifer's work, I'm sorry,
33:05
Speaker 1: asking if there was a family emergency. Was Jennifer sick?
33:08
Speaker 1: And Matt started the dominoes just falling as they Nay
33:14
Speaker 1: and Logan and his friend Drew and I drove to
33:21
Speaker 1: Orlando making phone calls. I reached out to my colleagues
33:25
Speaker 1: who worked in Orlando to call a hospital, called police stations.
33:29
Speaker 1: Was there an accident? I mean, we were crazed. We
33:33
Speaker 1: were absolutely crazy because it's so unlike Jen to just
33:38
Speaker 1: not show up somewhere, so we instantly knew that something
33:42
Speaker 1: was wrong, and it was very wrong. You know, they
33:46
Speaker 1: have this drive to her condo, you know, a long
33:51
Speaker 1: drive to Joseph Scott Morgan forensics expert. When they get there,
33:55
Speaker 1: let's just start with a moment they get there. What
33:58
Speaker 1: do you notice about that scenario? To Scott referring to
34:03
Speaker 1: the parents, are referring to the police. Okay, well for
34:07
Speaker 1: the police when you when you arrived at a scene
34:11
Speaker 1: like this, you're the first thing that pops into my
34:14
Speaker 1: mind is how many individuals have had access to this environment?
34:18
Speaker 1: Because now, if I'm missing a person, you want to
34:21
Speaker 1: go through here and look for evidence of why they
34:23
Speaker 1: might be missing. But you're not necessarily working a case
34:26
Speaker 1: at that point in time that would give you an
34:28
Speaker 1: indication that some foul play had occurred, like trauma, homicide,
34:33
Speaker 1: that sort of thing. So you're looking for clues, but
34:36
Speaker 1: during that period of time, you're having to rifle through
34:39
Speaker 1: everything and it disrupts the scene. Now we're now we're
34:42
Speaker 1: so many years down the range, down range, and the
34:45
Speaker 1: case was initially worked as a missing person and now
34:49
Speaker 1: when you need delicate forensic evidence, I really wonder how
34:52
Speaker 1: much stuff was lost at that point. So that that
34:54
Speaker 1: leaves me scratching my head as an investigator. To Karen
34:57
Speaker 1: Stork's psychologist at Karen Stork dot com. How do people
35:01
Speaker 1: keep going this many years later? That's that's the problem.
35:06
Speaker 1: And you can hear it in these in their voices,
35:09
Speaker 1: can't you, Nancy, how upsetting this is. This is their
35:13
Speaker 1: daughter and they have no idea what became of her,
35:17
Speaker 1: and the brain works in such a way that it
35:19
Speaker 1: can never let it go. So you're on an endless
35:22
Speaker 1: loop of wondering and wanting an answer and wanting her
35:26
Speaker 1: and it's just horrific. You know, to Ashley Willcott, judge
35:31
Speaker 1: and lawyer, what do you make of a lawsuit against
35:33
Speaker 1: the police department? Well, I agree with you, Nancy. Ideally,
35:36
Speaker 1: I don't like to see them because generally law enforcement
35:39
Speaker 1: busts their rear ends to investigate and do a phenomenal job. However,
35:45
Speaker 1: in this circumstance, in this case, I really believe that
35:48
Speaker 1: the parents taking that action has caused it to move forward,
35:53
Speaker 1: and you cannot not do that in this case for
35:56
Speaker 1: the sake of your child. They've done the right thing.
35:58
Speaker 1: I think in this case it was Nancy, if I
36:01
Speaker 1: could interject one more thing, Having worked at the medical
36:04
Speaker 1: examiner in the coroner's office for most of my adult
36:07
Speaker 1: life and doing what I do, you've got a real
36:09
Speaker 1: dichotomy that's going on here, and it's heartbreaking. The police
36:12
Speaker 1: have their interest, and I know that they will say
36:14
Speaker 1: that they want to find this precious girl, okay, but
36:19
Speaker 1: they're looking to solve a crime. You have the heart
36:22
Speaker 1: of a mama and a daddy here that want to
36:25
Speaker 1: find their baby and that trump's at this point and
36:28
Speaker 1: I hate I'm not trying to speak for them, but
36:30
Speaker 1: as a mama and daddy, that trump's everything else. What
36:34
Speaker 1: happened to my daughter and where is she? And that's
36:38
Speaker 1: why this is so emotionally driven because we don't have
36:41
Speaker 1: those answers, and the reason this is going on because
36:44
Speaker 1: we're putting pressure on them because we have attorneys involved.
36:46
Speaker 1: Now we are over it. It's been twelve years. Didn't
36:48
Speaker 1: do this last year, no year before, no, the year
36:50
Speaker 1: before year. This is a jump. This is comical, and
36:52
Speaker 1: I hope everybody can realize that this is only being
36:55
Speaker 1: done because we have attorneys involved now and we are
36:57
Speaker 1: on their ass because they uh, okay, they didn't do
37:02
Speaker 1: things right. Okay, Well that's the fact of completing now, guys,
37:06
Speaker 1: this is this is it is twelve years. This is
37:08
Speaker 1: a joke. This is all everybody's standing up here behind
37:11
Speaker 1: this a joke. Everybody says a joke. The see through it.
37:14
Speaker 1: You know you've been here from the beginning. You know
37:15
Speaker 1: more than anybody this is a joke. Okay, we have
37:18
Speaker 1: attorney is involved and that's why they're doing this in
37:20
Speaker 1: Seawan Chase right now and half the SUFFI said, it
37:22
Speaker 1: is an absolute slapping the police, and I think we
37:24
Speaker 1: all know that common sense would prevail. You are hearing
37:27
Speaker 1: Jennifer's brother, Logan Kessi at a news conference telling reporters
37:32
Speaker 1: that the only reason the police are now talking about
37:34
Speaker 1: the case is because they have lawyers who are pushing
37:38
Speaker 1: them to do it. That they are insulting the Kessi
37:41
Speaker 1: family by refusing to open up and give them the
37:44
Speaker 1: files to really pursue this case. Jump in, Cheryl, Nancy.
37:48
Speaker 1: They've got a pr problem as well as an investigator problem.
37:51
Speaker 1: They should have before it ever got to this point.
37:55
Speaker 1: Shat with her brother and her mama and a daddy
37:58
Speaker 1: in a room of the forty two binders, is said,
38:03
Speaker 1: let's go over this together, y'all help us. What have
38:06
Speaker 1: we missed? What do you see that we don't see?
38:10
Speaker 1: Let them go name by name frame by frame, line
38:13
Speaker 1: by line. At this point, after thirteen years, they know
38:18
Speaker 1: down well, her mom and daddy didn't take her. They
38:21
Speaker 1: know her brother didn't hurt her, so let them help you.
38:25
Speaker 1: It should never have gotten to this point, straight out
38:29
Speaker 1: to Joyce Cassey, Jennifer's mother, way in, Joyce, Oh, I agree,
38:33
Speaker 1: it should never have gotten to this point. And that's
38:39
Speaker 1: why we're fighting the fight right now is there's going
38:42
Speaker 1: to be other families in this situation, and you know,
38:46
Speaker 1: we want to let up. We want to let our
38:49
Speaker 1: son know that we're never going to give up, that
38:53
Speaker 1: we're never going to give up. We're not going away.
38:56
Speaker 1: We will do everything and anything that we can to
38:59
Speaker 1: try to give Jennifer the best chance of being found. Joyce,
39:02
Speaker 1: in your heart of hearts, what do you believe happened
39:05
Speaker 1: that morning? I mean, I know she got up and
39:08
Speaker 1: took a shower. The showerstall was still wet, the towels
39:11
Speaker 1: were damp. As I recall you guys telling me her
39:15
Speaker 1: clothes were laid out on the bed because she would
39:17
Speaker 1: do that. That was her practice, to try to pick
39:19
Speaker 1: out what she was going to wear to work that day.
39:21
Speaker 1: You know she got up that morning, you know that
39:24
Speaker 1: she was in contact that night before at ten o'clock.
39:29
Speaker 1: It was between getting up in the morning and you
39:31
Speaker 1: take into shower and leaving for work, and those forty
39:35
Speaker 1: five minutes or so that is when Jennifer seemingly disappeared
39:40
Speaker 1: off the face of the earth. I don't believe in
39:44
Speaker 1: coincidences in criminal law. I think there was a huge
39:47
Speaker 1: group of people, construction workers, and many of them I
39:53
Speaker 1: believe were illegals and not documented, and I just do
39:57
Speaker 1: not think there was a coincidence with them being there
40:01
Speaker 1: and her going missing. That was the only wild card.
40:05
Speaker 1: We know where the boyfriend was. The neighbors have been
40:08
Speaker 1: checked out, we know where the boss was. They are
40:13
Speaker 1: the wild card in my mind, Joyce, and I want
40:16
Speaker 1: to hear your theory. I definitely feel that there's something
40:21
Speaker 1: about the workers, because we had blanketed the complex on
40:27
Speaker 1: the evening of the twenty fourth with missing posters of Jennifer.
40:32
Speaker 1: The very next morning, more than two thirds of the
40:35
Speaker 1: workers didn't show up for work, so obviously they were frightened.
40:41
Speaker 1: Now we had put flyers on every car and every
40:44
Speaker 1: condo door, on every utility door, and I just think
40:49
Speaker 1: it's telling that two thirds of the workers never showed
40:52
Speaker 1: back up for work. So how can the police say
40:56
Speaker 1: that they investigated and interrogated the workers when more than
41:01
Speaker 1: two thirds of them didn't come back to work. Oh Man,
41:05
Speaker 1: talk about behavioral evidence, Sheryl McColl They didn't even show
41:08
Speaker 1: up to work the day after Jennifer goes missing. And
41:11
Speaker 1: that's our point, Nancy. That file is going to show
41:14
Speaker 1: what was done and what was not done. The police
41:18
Speaker 1: don't maybe want them to know where they dropped the ball,
41:21
Speaker 1: if they dropped the ball, but by not sitting down
41:25
Speaker 1: only sees this belief that they didn't do the right
41:29
Speaker 1: thing at the right time for Jennifer to Drew Cassey,
41:33
Speaker 1: tell me about your ghostfund me. Well, after thirteen years,
41:37
Speaker 1: I guess one can imagine the money that one spends
41:41
Speaker 1: trying to find their loved one. In our case, it's
41:43
Speaker 1: been our life savings over half a million dollars. But
41:46
Speaker 1: at this point we don't have funds to do legal
41:51
Speaker 1: and investigative work. They basically have run out, and in fact,
41:56
Speaker 1: I wrote an eighteen thousand dollars check yesterday for court records,
42:01
Speaker 1: for actually police records. They're going to hand them over,
42:04
Speaker 1: but they're going to redact nine. They told us that
42:08
Speaker 1: period came over and said, have BECASSEI sent us eighteen
42:13
Speaker 1: thousand dollars and we will have the detectives start to
42:16
Speaker 1: go through every single page and redact what she feels
42:18
Speaker 1: needs to be redact, and we'll let you know how
42:21
Speaker 1: we're doing in a few months. That is why we're
42:24
Speaker 1: in court. Oh, Drew, I am so sorry. I don't
42:30
Speaker 1: understand why the police are fighting with you. I don't
42:35
Speaker 1: understand why they would charge you nearly twenty thousand dollars
42:39
Speaker 1: to get the files and then, as if taunting you,
42:43
Speaker 1: say we're going to redact ninety five percent of that.
42:46
Speaker 1: Just know that, but pay me twenty grand to get it.
42:49
Speaker 1: And we know that because we did get one file
42:52
Speaker 1: from them in a request and it was all redacted,
42:55
Speaker 1: and they told us that's what they're going to do
42:58
Speaker 1: because we're not to have them for me. Drew and Joyce,
