Timeshare Employer Offers $250,000 For Missing Orlando Woman

An employer of a missing woman offered a $250,000 reward for the safe return of the woman three months after she mysteriously disappeared in Orlando.

Timeshare and real estate mogul David Siegel made the offer with the Kesse family outside his company Monday.

Siegel said the reward money is on behalf of Westgate Resorts Co., which is the timeshare company that employed Kesse.

"He said you can call it a timeshare reward or you could call it a timeshare ransom but the money is only for Jennifer's safe return," Local 6 reporter Louis Bolden said.

"I've been watching this family for three months standing on street corners and beating the bushes and doing everything they can to get her back and I feel terrible what they are going through and I wanted to put up this reward," Siegel said.

"Obviously, (Siegel) has a very big and warm heart and understands that abduction of a human being is a very serious act," Jennifer's father, Drew Kesse, said Monday.

The timeshare collected reward will be available for one month, Local 6 News reported.

On May 24, Seigel will pull the $250,000 reward for good, Bolden said.

The Kesses have set up a tip line at (407) 722-2162.

The timeshare reward has nothing to do with Crimeline, but the family also said residents may also phone tips to that number at (800) 423-TIPS.
