So, Jacques arrived home at about 9:30 p.m. and went inside to take a shower. She had no clue that Kennedy was going to go out that evening, but Kennedy was reportedly caught on surveillance footage leaving in her mother’s car at about 10:30 p.m.
Still, when Jacques got out of the shower, she assumed her daughter was just upstairs and never realized Kennedy was not home until later that evening when she went to the bathroom and realized her truck was gone.
At about 12:00 a.m., Jacques then texted her daughter to see where she was. At that point, Kennedy claimed she would be on her way home “in a minute.”
That’s why Jacques went to bed afterward. But, at about 2:00 a.m., she woke up again and texted her daughter for a second time. After that message, there was no response from Kennedy.
By the following morning, Kennedy still had not returned home. And according to Jacques, she immediately knew that something was wrong.
“It was a school day for her sisters, so I figured she would be here to take them to school in time,” Jacques explained.
“When she didn’t come and wasn’t answering, that’s when I was like, ‘Okay, something’s not right.'”
Kennedy was also very good about returning phone calls and text messages. So, after Jacques never heard back from her daughter, she reported Kennedy missing to the Belleville Police Department.
After launching an investigation, it was discovered that Kennedy had been captured on camera footage leaving her mother’s home at about 10:30 p.m. in a 2007 white Chevy Tahoe.
And according to Kennedy’s roommates, she was last seen at about 1:00 a.m. March 4, 2022, at Show-Me’s Sports Bar and Grill located in St. Charles, Missouri. That evening, Kennedy reportedly joined her roommate and various other friends for a birthday celebration at the bar.
Investigators then obtained surveillance footage from the bar itself and found that, after Kennedy had dinner and drinks with her friends, she left at approximately 1:10 a.m. She reportedly got up from her seat, walked out of the bar, and headed toward what appeared to be the white Chevrolet Tahoe– which was parked in front of the bar.
