Twenty-year-old Tiffany Sessions was last seen on February 9, 1989 in Tampa, Florida. At the time of her disppearance, she was attending the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, majoring in finance and lived at the Casablanca East Condominums.

That evening, Tiffany told her roommate she was going to take a walk along Willston Road, but she never came home. A witness saw a woman matching her description talking to several unidentified people in a car which the woman may have entered; however, the police have not confirmed if the woman that the witness saw was Tiffany.

A man named Michael Knickerbocker was considered a possible suspect in her disappearance. He has a history of sex offenses and other various crimes. In 1990, he was sentenced to 5 years in prison for raping a 20-year-old college student from Gainesville, Florida. In 2005, he pled no contest in the shooting death of a 12-year-old girl from Starke, Florida in 1989 and was given an additional life sentence.

Knickerbocker allegedly told other inmates that he murdered Tiffany and disposed of her remains in the Caloosahatchee River near Fort Myers, Florida; however, when investigators searched the area, there was no sign of her body. Police are skeptical about his statement because Knickerbocker wasn't living in Gainesville, Florida at the time Tiffany went missing.

In 2014, another suspect, a man named Paul Rowles was named a suspect in Tiffany's case. Rowles was believed to be a serial killer by authorities and that Tiffany was one of his victims. He died in prison from natural causes in 2013.

Tiffany's case is classified as an endangered missing person. The FBI's search for her is considered the largest search in the history of Florida. Her parents are offering a $25,000 reward for any information about her case. Her mom wrote a book called, "Where's My Tiffany?"
