Massive Weekend Search Planned For Missing Woman

Family Launches Web Site

Dozens of volunteers have signed up for Saturday's scheduled search for an Orlando woman who mysteriously vanished last week.

Members of Child Watch of North America joined the search for 24-year-old Jennifer Kesse early this week and immediately planned an organized search Saturday.

Kesse was reported missing last Tuesday after she did not show up for work at Westgate Resorts in Ocoee, Fla.

Friday, the family launched a Web site to keep Kesse's name and story circulating.

The Web site contains photos, notes from the family and a guest book where visitors can leave messages.

Local 6 News reported that one of the Web site posts was from a concerned citizen in Anchorage, Alaska.

"I just think what if that was my daughter?" volunteer Tony Brower said. "I wouldn't like this to happen, and if it was my wife I'd sure like people to come out and help as much as they can."

Orlando police will resume their search of wooded areas near Kesse's apartment Friday.

Teams of police officers and sheriff's deputies searched areas inside the boundaries of Texas Avenue to the west, Orange Blossom Trail to the east, Oakridge Road to the south and Holden Avenue to the north.

Nearly 100 anonymous Crimeline tips have been made since last week, but the woman remains missing.

Volunteers for Saturday's search are asked to sign up at the Mall at Millenia from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Members will be photographed, given a badge and put into a search party. Registration will be held at the community room near the Banana Republic store at the mall.

A $115,000 reward is being offered for information about Kesse's whereabouts.

If you have any information, you are urged to call Crimeline at (800) 423-TIPS.
