this is a photo of 26 year old Diana duvet of Vero Beach I don't know where she is police describe her as 5'3 120
00:00:09
pounds brown hair she was last seen leaving the what a Tavern restaurant around 1am Friday
00:00:15
morning with a man they say is her boyfriend 32 year old Michael David Jones neither has been heard from since
00:00:22
on June 19 2014 Diana duvet went out with some of her friends in Vero Beach Florida they described her as enjoying
00:00:30
herself but she was texting a lot they just felt like it was a little out of the ordinary
00:00:35
she left her friends and then went and met up with Mike Jones at another establishment it's called what a Tavern
00:00:41
Lieutenant Matt Harrelson says Diana and Jones appeared to be having a good time
00:00:45
having a few drinks and at one point he says it appeared Diana was crying visibly upset but then kind of not and
00:00:52
when they were leaving the bar staff said are you guys okay to get home Mike said I'm gonna drive her home don't
00:00:57
worry about it what time was that it was around 1 30 a.m Diana was never seen again the next day Lieutenant Harrelson
00:01:05
and his partner Sergeant Brad Metz went to Jones's apartment but no one answered
00:01:10
the door we want to find Diana we want to reunite her with her parents we want to make sure she's okay
00:01:17
investigators knew that in order to find Diana they needed to find Mike Jones she
00:01:22
was 26 years old and she would call me every day it set me off immediately I was trying to tell everybody who would
00:01:32
listen if she's not calling me it's because she can't and then we begin to learn about Michael Jones Jones was a
00:01:41
wealth manager for PNC Bank and was praised in performance reviews for his strong ethics and Leadership qualities
00:01:48
and a lot of multi-million dollar accounts a lot of people trusted him with a lot of money Ellie Sexton says
00:01:53
she dated Jones for two to four months I remember the stories like every time there was a Zinger Ellie says Jones's
00:02:01
stories were always elaborate with celebrities involved and that he always knew people wherever he went Mike told
00:02:08
me that his sister was dating Jason Aldean and that he was adopted by Ronald Reagan's son Mike drove a gold Honda
00:02:18
Accord that was probably 10 years old but he told me that he had a penthouse in Fort Lauderdale that he had a Porsche
00:02:25
that he just didn't want to damage Stuart Pierce was friends with Jones well Mike Jones told me that he was
00:02:32
adopted and that he played some minor league baseball but one time hanging out on the beach
00:02:37
and seeing him throw a football made me think that he'd probably never played Minor League Baseball nothing in his
00:02:43
life was the truth who he really is to this day I'm not sure we know two days after Diana disappeared
00:02:50
Sergeant Metz noticed Jones's phone had pinged off a cell tower in the Fort Pierce Area 25 minutes away from Vero
00:02:57
Beach local authorities in Fort Pierce located Jones's gold Honda Accord in the parking lot of a Hampton Inn Sergeant
00:03:05
Matson Lieutenant Harrelson entered his room he seemed surprised he was surprised to
00:03:11

00:03:17
cigarette and he was talking on a phone on a cell phone when Matt's asked where Diana was Jones gave him nothing I'll
00:03:24

00:04:12

00:04:22
and kind of just putting my head down it was not the way I wanted to find her and I opened the door and here's chief
