On Janaury
22, 2006, Jennifer and her boyfriend, Robert Allen, returned
home from a relaxing vacation in St. Croix. Robert and
Jennifer have a long distance relationship -- she's in
Orlando and he's in Fort Lauderdale, but they see each other
just about every weekend. After their long weekend getaway
in the islands, the couple returned to their respective jobs
on the following Monday. It was business as usual and
Jennifer called her father, brother, a few close friends and
her boyfriend after work. Her last phone call was at
9:56 p.m. to Robert on Monday night.
Police
believe on Tuesday morning, January 24, Jennifer showered
and got ready for work. However, she never made it to her
job at Westgate Resorts where she manages the financial
department which oversees timeshares. Joyce Kesse,
Jennifer's mother, says her daughter is never late for
work. "She's ambitious and dedicated to her
career. When I got the call from her employer that she
didn't show for work, I knew something was wrong. That was
the beginning of this hellish nightmare."
