The press conference was apparently postponed from 1:00 to 3:00 when the POI’s body was found. I wonder if they were planning to name him as a POI even before the suicide? My understanding is that LE had been trying to locate him up until that point. He was found in an apartment complex in Seminole county and had been dead for some time. I wonder if this was his apartment or someone else’s? In my experience maintenance men usually live on site.

sorry to say this, he's a maintenance guy. no one always notices what they do. Big laundry bin, a giant tote. . . he could throw her in a duffle and no one would be the wiser. just a bad guy IMO

You're right - it's like they can hide in plain sight because residents will just assume they are doing their job.

Caballero vehicle was found at (the apartment complex where his body was found) and is being delivered to the sheriff’s office for processing,” Mina said. “So the death investigation of Caballero is being conducted by the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office. We have been actively searching for Caballero this weekend, and I want to reiterate — Miya is still missing. Her disappearance is suspicious and our detectives and the family members obviously suspect foul play.”

Investigators said Caballero was a maintenance worker at the apartment complex where Marcano was last seen. Mina added that he had “demonstrated a romantic interest in Miya” but was rejected by her several times.

Mina said Caballero, who was a maintenance worker at the complex, accessed Marcano’s apartment using a maintence key fob a half-hour before she was last seen. Mina said an arrest warrant had been issued for Caballero for burglary related to him entering her apartment without permission.

Mina said Caballero had previously expressed romantic interest in Marcano, which the Valencia College student had rebuffed.

Seminole County deputies said Caballero was found dead inside a unit at Camden Club Apartments in unincorporated Longwood around 10:30 a.m. Monday.

Deputies, including around 30 detectives, are still actively searching for Marcano.

“We are imploring anyone with any information on Miya’s whereabouts to come forward,” Mina said.

Do we know the name of his apartment complex in Seminole County?

How do police know a maintenance key fob was used to open her apartment at a specific time? Video?

I think fobs keep that information. I know my work on does, it lets them see when I enter and how many times I go to the bathroom or leave the office!

*does this sound like he was found dead in his car?
No - I just posted an update report that says he was found inside a unit..

I confused myself for a second...it said his vehicle was found at "the scene" and I took that to mean the scene of her disappearance but apparently it meant the scene of his suicide. That makes more sense.

No means no. It really is that simple. So why does the aggressor not accept this response? What makes someone believe they don’t have to accept “No?”

A maintenance master key that Caballero was known to keep was used to enter Marcano's apartment unit around 4:30 p.m. Friday, a half-hour before she would have finished her shift at the apartment complex, Mina said.

Before he was found dead, authorities had issued an arrest warrant for Caballero for burglary for allegedly entering her unit.

Investigators are still seeking information as to Marcano's whereabouts, and Caballero and his vehicle, which investigators have recovered. During a search of Marcano's apartment, investigators found several items deemed "suspicious," Mina said.

Armando Manuel Caballero, 27, a person of interest in the case, was found dead at an apartment complex Monday, Mina said. It appeared that he took his own life and "had been dead for quite some time," he said.
Caballero was a maintenance worker at the apartment complex where Marcano also lived and worked in the leasing office.

"He had demonstrated a romantic interest in Miya," Mina said. "This was repeatedly rebuffed by Miya."

BBM - this would seem he killed himself perhaps Friday evening? What does "quite some time" mean in FL - I think it depends on the AC......

With all of the rain we've had (not the past 2 days) the retention ponds are pretty full - there is a lot of trees/palms and Florida wild growth along that route. She could be anywhere but I hope they checked the dumpsters.....
I"m sorry to have to type that.
