Former WFTV Reporter Aids Search

Roger Simmons, February 3, 2006

Former WFTV reporter Scott Thuman, who left Orlando in December to take a job at WJLA in Washington, D.C., is back in O-Town to help with the search for missing Jennifer Kesse, NewsBlues.com reports.

Thuman has reportedly taken a leave of absence from WJLA to oversee media inquiries into the disappearance of Kesse, the 24-year-old Orlando woman who has been missing since Jan. 23. NewsBlues said Thuman dated Kesse, and he is advising her family on dealing with the media.

A website has been created to help with the search for Kesse.
