CBS: 20 Years Later: The Search For Tiffany Sessions

Posted on 09 February 2009 by sarah

Tiffany Sessions Disappeared Feb. 9, 1989

She Was A Junior At The University Of Florida

Cold Case Investigators Continue To Work The Case

During the winter of 1989, at the University of Florida in Gainesville, a young woman left her apartment to go for an early evening jog but she never returned. Her name was Tiffany Sessions and she disappeared without a trace twenty years ago today. To mark the 20-year anniversary of the case, the Alachua County Sheriff’s Office is holding a news conference.

Sessions’ father, a Miami real estate developer-turned missing children advocate, Patrick Sessions told CBS4 News partner The Miami Herald that police are expected to reveal new tips in the case; one from a man in jail, who Sessions said had information that would be hard to come by without “some exposure to the case,” stated the Herald.

Tiffany, who would now be 40, disappeared on February 9, 1989. When she left for her jog, she was carrying a black Sony Walkman, but had left her keys, wallet, and identification at home. For days, crews searched the area looking for clues but came up empty. There was no sign of a struggle, no Walkman, no evidence, not anything. More than 2-thousand leads have been investigated over the years but still nothing but conflicting stories and unsubstantiated theories.

Patrick Sessions has never given up the search for his daughter, who was 19 years old the last time he saw her. In his never-ending search for Tiffany, Patrick has launched the “Official Tiffany Sessions” Web site on the 20th anniversary of her disappearance.

Visitors to the web site can leave tips for investigators, learn more about Tiffany’s disappearance and the site also acts as a resource for other parents and friends coping with the disappearance of a loved one by providing phone numbers and links to missing persons organizations.

There’s also a reminder about the $25,000 reward being offered by the Sessions family for information leading to the remains of Tiffany and the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for her abduction.
