A spokesperson for West Yorkshire Police today said there have been no further sightings of him since then and officers are continuing to appeal for information from anyone who may have seen him.
The 41-year-old’s family, friends and colleagues at Piglove Brewing Co have continued to post on social media to try to trace him. Posters have also appeared around Harrogate asking people to check their CCTV and dashcam footage from the Harewood area on Monday, August 1.
In a video posted to the company’s social media accounts, they said:
“We need to ask you now not just to think if you’ve seen him, but we need you to look at your CCTV throughout the week from Monday, August 1 all the way up to today.
“If you live anywhere near the Harewood bridge, anywhere near the A61, Netherby, Weeton, East Keswick, these types of places, we’re calling out for people now.
“We’ve got to get our brother home safe.”
Last Monday, a week after his disappearance, police said they were concerned for Jesus’s welfare and were going to begin searching the areas near where he was last seen.
Anyone with information can call West Yorkshire Police on 101 quoting reference 13220422334.

Kirkby Overblow crafts its own jubilee beacon
People in Kirkby Overblow have come together to make a jubilee beacon.
The beacon has been designed, made and engineered by locals ahead of it being lit on Thursday night.
The groundwork and engineering plans were done by the Moortown group, ran by the McManus family from Kearby. The Oak Pole was made by Yorkshire Oak Frames.
The horse shoe basket was made from old horseshoes from the Great Yorkshire Shoe by farrier Adam Fox, from Netherby, as a nod to the Queen’s love of horses.
The final step to get it in place was the job of local farmer Rob Parkes.
The village will also host a BBQ on Thursday ahead of the beacon being lit. Organisers say the beacon will be able to be seen as far away as Almscliffe Crag and the White Horse near Thirsk.
Windsor House rebrands as The House of Windsor
The Windsor House in Harrogate has rebranded itself to The House of Windsor ahead of the jubilee.
The period office building, near Valley Gardens, has also been decorated. Passers-by will now see the Queen, in cardboard form, stood alongside the Prince of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Karen Winspear, property manager at Windsor House said:
“We wanted to create something to celebrate the jubilee that the businesses in our building could enjoy, as well as those who will be visiting the number of events planned at Valley Gardens. With a name like ours, we couldn’t resist a royal makeover to mark such a fantastic occasion!”
Queen Mary’s jubilee hat parade
Students at Queen Mary’s School at Topcliffe wore straw hats when they took part in a jubilee hat parade.
Judged by hat maker Jonny Beardsall, the parade also included a performance of the platinum jubilee song.
