NEW VIDEO: Suspect Parks Kesse's Car

---

Orlando police released video showing someone dropping off Jennifer's car in a parking lot at a condo complex about a mile from where she disappeared. It's the same person caught on surveillance camera walking away from the apartments.

Until now, police called him a "person of interest." Now, they said, he's their suspect.

Detectives were hoping they'd have found the suspect by now and they wanted to use the video to catch him in a lie. Instead, they're now hoping releasing the tape will help them find out who he is.

"The reason we hold something like that tight is because it's a lot easier to get someone to admit they were walking by a fence than admit they were driving Jennifer's car," said Det. Joel Wright, Orlando Police Department.

Detectives at the Orlando Police Department admit the tape isn't great for identifying who the suspect is, but it does prove that Jennifer did not put the car there herself and it does do one important thing for the case, it gets it back in the headlines.

The video shows Jennifer Kesse's black Chevy Malibu driving into the Huntington on the Green condos around noon on the very day the 24-year-old failed to show up to work. The driver meticulously parks the car, even adjusting his parking before leaving the car. He walks all the way around the pool and then he was captured on surveillance snapshots from a different camera.

At first, the man was called a "person of interest," hoping someone would recognize him.

"If this person happens to have told someone that year, 'It's me, but I don't know anything.' All of a sudden that person goes, 'You, it was you!'" said Jennifer's father, Drew Kesse.

That's the scenario Drew and Joyce Kesse are now hoping for, a year and four months after Jennifer vanished. Drew said, even if it isn't the outcome they want, they still want Jennifer back.

Joyce still hopes for a miracle.

"Truly, it's our biggest fear to never have the answers," Joyce said.

Detectives fear that, too. So far, their suspect has been lucky enough to avoid his face being captured on tape. They hope he isn't lucky enough to avoid their capture forever.

"We are absolutely positive someone has the info to bring this woman home," said Orlando Police Chief Mike McCoy.
