Grace's 22nd birthday since she was close to her parents other family members and friends her loved ones started sending her birthday messages as soon as the date changed but there was no response from her and this was unusual from a person who shared dozens of pictures from her activities with her friends and family every single day when Grace's parents tried to reach out through calls her phone was going straight to voicemail soon her family knew something was wrong because it was unusual for Grace to miss calls or leave her phone unattended for long periods of time the family kept trying her number for the next 2 days but when no one received any response from Grace they decided to contact the Auckland police on December 5th 2018 Grace main was reported missing but the police didn't show much urgency to find her initially the reason is that the police believed that Grace might have stayed with some newly made friends after a night out another assumption was that her phone might have died and she would contact her family soon but when the authorities contacted Bas Backpackers hostle to get information about Grace main they were surprised to know that she hadn't checked in after December 1st the day she left to meet Jesse kempson what was even more surprising was that all of Grace's belongings were still in the hostel the Auckland police now expedited their search for Grace main they began Gathering CCTV footage from the local bars hotels and restaurants this is when the authorities discovered that Grace had last gone to Sky City to meet someone the CCTV footage showed that Grace was approached by kempson confidently but then he hugged her in an awkward manner after the exchange of greetings the two left the place and went towards Andy's Burger Bar the footage obtained by the police didn't just capture Grace meeting kempson but also showed what happened in the following hours in the bar while enjoying their drinks the couple looked as if they were having a good time and Grace's actions didn't show any alarming signs both Grace and kempson embraced each other on multiple occasions and even kissed a few times fast forward to 9:40 p.

m. on the same night and the CCTV footage shows the couple heading towards Jesse kon's apartment Grace looked extremely comfortable with her date and it seemed as if the two had known each other for years their arms were wrapped around each other showing the young couple had a good night out up until that point in the CCTV footage everything seemed normal except one thing while the couple was in the bar Grace left her seat to use the restroom and as soon as she left Jesse kempson immediately started going through her belongings in the purse that she had left on her seat while on the date Grace was in touch with her friend in England Amina Ashcroft while amina's statements later revealed that Grace was having a good time with kempson and liked her date she also told the media that from her texts it was clear that Grace was pretty drunk Mina also revealed that while she saw some red flags in kemon when Grace described him she didn't say much because Grace was having a good time Grace told her friend that she clicked with her date well and in her last text she told Amina that she would contact her tomorrow and let her know what happened next up until this point the authorities didn't know exactly who Grace's date was but when the police were going through Grace's social media they noticed that soon after Grace returned from the restroom a person named Jesse Shane kempson commented on her Facebook profile picture with the comment reading beautiful very radiant that comment was what led the authorities to their suspect linked to Grace's disappearance the 26-year-old Jesse kempson was born on December 28th 1991 in New Zealand and grew up in Wellington his parents separated when he was nine and afterwards he was mainly brought up by her father and his grandfather the police investigation later revealed that Jesse had a volatile upbringing with trauma the complete opposite of Grace's childhood when his family and friends were interviewed nobody seemed to like him and almost everyone called him a compulsive liar Jesse's stepbrother told the police that he was a pathological liar who loved having power over people so much so that Jesse had even lied to some people that he was dying of cancer his landlord told the police that he initially believed that Jesse was a top manager for a company called Woolworth and was making six figures a year but that turned out to be a lie when the landlord found out that Jesse hardly left the apartment building and it was the state benefits that were paying his rent Jesse had lied to multiple people about his profession some people thought he was a successful businessman While others believed he was a professional softball player in reality Jesse was working as a telephone sales operative what was more interesting was that he was fired from his job for lying on the same day he met Grace Maine immediately after connecting the dots and identifying Jesse kempson the authorities knew he was their Person of Interest and there was some link between him and Grace's disappearance the investigators went to Jesse's apartment building but he wasn't there after after a while he arrived at the building but as soon as he saw the police he hurly turned around and tried to hide his face from the officers one of the officers spotted him and chased him as people stood by and watched the police eventually caught up to Jesse and brought him in for questioning when Jesse kempson was asked about the events of the night Grace main disappeared he told the authorities that he met Grace at Sky City because he didn't know

separate ways after agreeing to keep in touch with each other the investigators didn't buy Jesse kempson stories because of the CCTV footage they had seen according to the footage Jesse and Grace got off an elevator and headed towards his apartment when the authorities searched Jesse kempson studio apartment and looked into him through different sources they discovered that he had an unusual personality he was estranged from his family and also claimed to have been diagnosed with anxiety recently what caught the investigator's interest was a post on on Jesse's Facebook profile from a couple of weeks before he met Grace in the post he was extremely apologetic and asked for forgiveness from all the people he had wronged in one of the sentences of the post Jesse wrote that his arrogance and selfishness had affected his relationships with people in his personal life Jesse seemed to have shown red flags to almost everyone who had interacted with him including the girls he had dated all of them described him as overbearing and controlling even if he had just started seeing them he ini portrayed himself as a sophisticated and well-dressed person but soon showed his true colors he repeatedly asked his dates about their sexual experiences and tried to get as much personal information from them as possible the authorities went through nearly 6 terabytes of data from the
