FL FL - Suzette Jones, 26, Jacksonville, 22 Nov 1993

  • #21
RRJ filed for divorce in Nassau County the month before Suzette went missing, it was dismissed due to inaction.

This is interesting. I wonder if it is coincidence that it is also the same month that Suzette was arrested for prostitution (I am sure you were aware but I think it is ok to post as it is a matter of public record). I cannot find any significant adverse records about Ronald Jones (some minor motoring and debt issues only) but it does make him another POI. I am not sure what to think. There seem to be at least 3 possibilities;
1. She was a victim of a known associate, and my favorite in this case remains Carl Stewart.
2. She was a victim of an unknown person, possibly related to her lifestyle.
3. She chose to disappear and go off grid, again possibly to escape her lifestyle.
Whilst I still suspect 1. the records on the Duval County site you linked certainly make me think there is a real possibility that this disappearance could be lifestyle related (although that would not rule out Mr Stewart given his records. I wonder if he was her pimp?).

One thing I picked up from the arrest records that I found (they start from March 1986 and end 28 October 1993) her address was the same residence in Yulee, Nassau County, bar one which was an address in Jacksonville.

If someone does know how to search yearbook photos then Yulee High school might be worth a shot. I'm guessing the Yulee address is her parents/family home.

I've tried and failed with the yearbook photos.

I'm sure the police must have mugshots.

I'm undecided on what happened to Suzette, like you say her lifestyle made her incredibly vulnerable.

Nearly forgot, all the records are under Suzette Morris, even when she was married.

Link if anyone wants it.

I just wanted to say how amazing this thread is. Just look at all that was accomplished with just a little bit of attention to her case. Bravo!

Considering what was learned so far, I really wonder who reported her missing.

I can't find anything on the kidnapping, absolutely nothing, apart from it seems as though it was a federal case, so presumably CFS crossed state lines.

I was wondering if this UID has been considered? Forgive me, my toddler and 7 month old are making it impossible for me to do further research at the moment...

Just for the record, so we can rule this one out.

CarlK did the stats on this missing person and this UID. It was a very good match but he received a call that this was not a match. His post from the UID thread, # 29

"I received a call today from the detective in this case, and he said that Suzette Jones was ruled out based on DNA"

Sorry, for echoing....

I agree with you! What an amazing work done! Thank you guys!

Hi guys…thank you so much for all the hard work.Trying to process everything you brought up by summing some things up.

Suzette Marie Jones (Maiden name Morris?) date last seen November 22, 1993, in Jacksonville, Florida, age last seen 26, per Namus. DOB ?-?- 1967. Possible 11-23-67?


A SuzetteMarie Morris married a Carl Franklin Stewart in May 1989 in Duval County, post #11 possible DOB 12-11-1948?


Finaljudgement of dissolution of marriage on 2-23-1990 in Duval County of a Carl Franklin Stewart and a Suzette Marie Stewart, changing her name back to Morris. Post # 13


Article refers to him <Carl Franklin Stewart> having been released in 1997 after serving 6 years for kidnapping his wife in Alabama (presumably circa 1990).Post # 11


A SuzetteMarie Morris who married Ronald Reed Jones on 1 July 1993 in Duval County, post# 7


“our” Suzette Marie Jones went missing on 11-22-1993


Final judgement of dismissal d.d. 12-20-1994. About the divorce petition of a Ronald Reed Jones and a Suzette Marie Jones in Nassau County. In there they refer to a Petition for dissolution of the marriage on10-15-1993. Post # 16


I don’t understand this completely…so there was a petition at first but no proceedings and so it was dismissed? And if this are the same persons, incl. our MP, there was a petition before Suzette Marie Jones went missing. Is it possible to look this petition up and see who initiated this one and in what county?


I’m confused about Duval County and Nassau county mentioned in the documents? A Suzette Marie Morris had incidents at least until 10-28-1993, where she resided in Yulee,Nassau County post # 22


I checked the records of Carl Franklin Stewart and Suzette Marie Morris in the Duval County Clerk of Courts database (thx for leading us there) and as far as I could see they didn’t lived together at the same address during all this years OR she/he used their parent’s home address…I don’t know. There was one brief moment when C.F. Stewart stated not having an address, but after that all records have the same address. Suzette Marie Morris had all the time the same address in Yulee, Nassau county, also on 2/6/1993, 6/14/1993,and (again?) on 10/28/1993 in this period she was probably married (from marriage on 7/1/1993 until I suppose10-15-1993 when a petition for divorce was filed but later dismissed) for a very short time to Ronald Reed Jones, as posted above. It’s possible she lived during this time with him or the other way around and went back when themarriage went sour.


A RonaldReed Jones petitioned for divorce from a Suzette Marie Jones. Ordered and done on 10-6-1995, Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida. Suzette Marie Jones, addressunknown. Post # 8


A Carl Franklin Stewart (age 69) Released on 2-3-1999 post # 24 Looking at the timeline mentioned in the article and the age of Alice Stewart (76 when missing in 2000) in the Charleyproject file this can’t be the same Carl Franklin Stewart that kidnapped his wife and cared for his mother. I don’t think the age mentioned is the current age (he’s dead) but the age when he was released. Or do I overlook something?

I think 69 is his current age, if he was still alive. It matches up. I doubt they're searching death records to update the database. Maybe different if they die in federal custody. I found a John Smith who is 117.

It did confuse me at first, though.

I agree with this. I have repeatedly found records in my genealogy research which quote ages of deceased as if they were still alive. I agree with the comment that the Carl Franklin Stewart who kidnapped his wife in circa 1990 would almost certainly have been in jail when Suzette disappeared. However, this does not preclude him having organised her disappearance from behind bars. It is clear from his criminal record that he was a serious offender and seems to have been deeply involved in vice. It is likely he had equally dangerous associates who were not in jail in 1993. Not proof - but a plausible option. I do not think there is any inconsistency in the dates regarding the Stewart released from prison, the case of the disappearing mother and the wife kidnap case. They seem to line up well.

I had not posted further as I also have not found anything new. Only one small point may be worth noting. If looking for a high school photo I suspect (but cannot prove) that Suzette would have gone to Nassau County High School rather than Yulee as the latter was open until the sixties and then closed until reopened circa 12 years ago. Unfortunately this has still not helped me find a picture.

I'm getting this very weird feeling....maybe there is a connection between this missing female and the picture of an unknown living person's UID found in the possession (burried) of a killer discussed in the following thread. She would be just outside the age range..but... Jacksonville and the 90's.

https://www.websleuths.com/forums/s...o-WhtFem-10-25-brown-hair-living-photo-Feb-16

Uhm looking at the picture, I estimated the age, and there is no site or agency that gives us this parameter, however I think the estimate is the right one, maximum 25 years. However you can not exclude anything at the moment even if it seems unlikely both Suzette Jones the girl in the picture.

Have we hit a brick wall?

I've searched every county in Florida for criminal records for Suzette, but have come up blank. There were 5 or 6 counties I wasn't able to search, I think it's due to my IP address and not being in America.

But there doesn't seem to be any evidence of Suzette straying far from Duval County. At least not in Florida.

I've emailed the Namus case handler to suggest there may be mugshots of Suzette under the surname Morris.

Is there anything else we can do? Any suggestions?

I think we really need a photo.

I just found your site. Suzette is my sister.

These are the last known photos of her.
Welcome to Websleuths! I hope you’re still following the thread after 3+ years. Thanks for the photos of her. She looks like a loving sweet lady. Are the children in the photos relatives? I lightened the photo slightly so we can see her face clearly. She seems thin, was that her natural stature?
