Quit Claim Deed not reflected on Property Appraiser's Site?

I'm sending letters to properties that appear either vacant or not well maintained in my local area (FL).  I searched the property appraiser's site and found the person that the county says is the current owner.  However, when searching this person's name in the court records it appears that the "owner" executed a Quit Claim deed to another owner over 10 years ago.  What gives?  Does anyone know why the property appraiser's site would reflect information for someone who has not owned the property in over a decade?

(Also, in looking at the tax bill it is still in the name of the original owner and not the new owner)

I'm pretty certain I'm missing something easy... just don't see it.
