<div><strong>Jesse Farber-Rex, a 29-year-old father of two, went missing on August 11, 2015, in Tamaqua, Pennsylvania, under mysterious circumstances.</strong> In a final, frantic call for help, Jesse said: “Bring guns, I’m in a tree. 10–11 coyotes are after me, and my phone is about to die.” He described being on two separate mountains before the call dropped. He was never heard from again.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>For nearly a decade, Jesse’s family has refused to give up. They’ve followed every lead, organized community searches, and worked tirelessly to keep Jesse’s case in the public eye. Despite media coverage, podcasts, and billboards, no definitive answers have come—until recently.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In May 2024, new cell phone data revealed Jesse likely was not in the original search area but instead on the treacherous mountain behind Tamaqua Elementary School. This area—dense with cliffs, mine shafts, and deep woods—has never been professionally searched.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Now, with expert help, we have a rare chance to change that.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The family is working with Steve Fischer of Search Investigations—the nation’s leading missing persons agency. Steve Fischer is an expert private investigator and search and rescue specialist with over 20 years of experience in missing persons cases. Since 2023 alone, 27 missing people have been found due to the dedication of Steve Fischer and Search Investigations. He is known to work on some of the most well-known national cases still to this day. Steve has been featured on many platforms to give his expert advice on missing cases such as Nancy Grace.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Steve and his team plan to analyze Jesse’s cell data to pinpoint his location during that final call and launch a large-scale, professional search. The plan includes:

</div>

<div>• A 2-day pre-site inspection and analysis

</div>

<div>• Further cell tower analysis

</div>

<div>• A 3-day search by national-level recovery teams

</div>

<div>• Cadaver K9 units, drones, ATVs, underwater ROVs

</div>

<div>• A 2-day community-led follow-up search

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>What We Need:

</div>

<div>To make this search possible, <strong>we are raising funds to cover the following:</strong>

</div>

<div>• Experienced Search and Rescue Ground Search Specialists

</div>

<div>• Cadaver K9’s and Handlers

</div>

<div>• Airfare for SAR team members and K9’s

</div>

<div>• Hotel accommodations

</div>

<div>• Rental Car Costs

</div>

<div>• ATV Rental Costs

</div>

<div>• Community Search Support Costs

</div>

<div>• Underwater ROV and Operator Expenses

</div>

<div>• Drone Mapping Fees

</div>

<div>• Liability Insurance Policy Fees

</div>

<div>• Miscellaneous Search Support Expenses

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Full transparency of all spending will be provided.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to finally bring answers and closure to Jesse’s children, who’ve grown up with pain, questions, and no father.</strong> They deserve to know the truth—and to begin healing.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Let’s come together as a community, not just to help Jesse’s family and finally find answers to the biggest unsolved mystery of our area, but to take back a sense of justice and safety for Tamaqua. Every dollar brings us closer to answers.

</div>
