Black hair, brown eyes. Some Age at the time of disappearance: ncies spell Jordon's last name "Jordan." Information on the case from local sources, may or may not be correct : Jordon was last seen leaving the 1100 block of Robinson Street in Milan, Tennessee on December 22, 1995. She left with Onnie B. Nesbitt (spelled "Oney" in some accounts), who is described as a 36-year-old African-American male, 5'8 and 142 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He drove her away in her brownish-orange 1985 Chevrolet Celebrity or Buick Riviera; they were going to have dinner. Neither returned. In early January 1996 Jordon's car was located, parked at a residence in the 100 block of Dupree Street. When police searched the home, they found drugs, money and weapons, but no sign of Jordon. Nesbitt also dropped out of sight for weeks and was also thought to be missing, but he later resurfaced. He is now serving 24 years in prison on an unrelated charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm. It's worth noting that he's a violent man; the judge who sentenced him on the firearm charge in 2008 noted he had "a long, long history of criminal behavior" with "perhaps more assaults and batteries and aggravated offenses than this court has ever seen." Jordon has never been heard from again and it's unclear whether Nesbitt is a suspect in her case. She was a certified nurse's aide at the time of her disappearance. Her case remains unsolved and foul play is suspected. Other information and links : ncy Milan Police Department 731-686-3309 September 2021 updates and sources A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are not known. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2�5% of missing children in Europe. By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends. Several organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and imAge at the time of disappearance: s of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.
