A missing woman who was last seen at strip clubs in Florida has been found dead \u2014 and now her devastated family is searching for answers.<\/p>\n

Keisha Nicole Jones, 31, was found in the waters off Biscayne Bay, near a NOAA research building on Virginia Key, three days after she was spotted on surveillance camera outside of a strip club holding hands with a man some 21 miles away, sources told Local 10 News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jones was seen around 6 a.m. Friday morning leaving Dean\u2019s Gold \u2014 an adult entertainment joint in North Miami Beach \u2014 and then jumping in a taxi to Scarlett\u2019s Cabaret \u2014 another adult club in Hallandale Beach, local police said<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was one of the places where she was last seen with the person that she was with,\u201d Richard Furlow, Jones\u2019 father, told WSVN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The FBI is now working to piece together what occurred that night, but declined to share any information.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe FBI is aware of this matter. Out of respect for the ongoing investigation, we will refrain from commenting on its substance,\u201d a spokesperson told The Post.<\/p>\n

The Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner\u2019s Office said it was waiting for family members to identify her body before releasing any details.<\/p>\n

Furlow told The Post in a brief phone call Wednesday that he was on his way down to Miami Beach to meet investigators with other family members, who are desperate to know what happened.<\/p>\n

Jones\u2019 mother, who also traveled down to Florida, could not immediately be reached for comment.<\/p>\n

Jones was found near Virginia Key in Biscayne Bay, according to Local 10 News. WPLG<\/p>\n

Jones had \u201cjust got a relationship with her boyfriend recently, and she was starting a new life going to church, and kids go through things when they\u2019re young, and then I felt that she was really trying to turn her life around,\u201d Furlow told WSVN.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy family is broken. My sister can\u2019t stop crying. I\u2019ve gotten so sick to the point where I\u2019ve been having stiffness in my heart, my stomach, so I just try to keep it out of my mind, \u2019cause that\u2019s the only way I can survive. Just trying to stay strong.\u201d<\/p>\n

He told the outlet that he spoke to the morgue and that \u201cher body that fits the description\u201d was found between 2:30 and 4 a.m. on Monday morning.<\/p>\n

The family told Local 10 News that they are looking for answers about who she was last with and how she ended up dead.<\/p>\n

North Miami Beach Police noted in a missing persons flyer that Jones had no known mental health issues or medical illnesses.<\/p>\n
