Found Deceased FL - Miya Marcano, 19, Arden Villas apts, Orlando, 24 Sep 2021

“Residents at the Arden Villas Apartments said they received notice that law enforcement officers will be entering all occupied garages and storage units on Thursday as they continue their investigation...”Deputies to search garages, storage units for missing woman Miya Marcano

I’m hoping that because OCSO used the word “occupied” it means they have already searched all empty garages and storage units. I know many of us were hoping empty units/garages/storage were checked days ago.
I pray OCSO finds her soon.

Yes - I hope that too. This is absolutely desperate at this point.

Nice that the apartment complex is instituting a bunch of new safety protocols. Why wasn't this done previously?

What on earth can women do to be safe?

Yep. Shouldn't have taken this to happen in order for them to do this.

Miya Marcano search: Person of interest's cell phone pinged near New Smyrna

“Residents received a letter from Arden Villas telling them that law enforcement would be entering their storage units and garages Thursday as they continue their investigation.”

“Family members told WESH 2 Thursday that Caballero's cell phone pinged at some point after her disappearance near New Smyrna, adding a new area for law enforcement to search.”

“Marcano's family believes she is alive and have revealed the evidence in her room shows she was taken out a window, not through the front door.”

“Miya Marcano’s aunt, Semone Westmaas, said she ran into Armando Caballero on Saturday. That is the same day that cellphone video was shot that appears to show him in an apartment complex parking lot. It was two days before he apparently killed himself.

‘He was trying to leave. His lights was off. He said, “Are you looking for Miya?” I said, “Who are you?” He said, “I’m the maintenance guy. I heard you’re looking for me,”’ said Westmaas. ‘I didn’t know who this guy was at the time.’”

SBM. Lots of info I hadn’t heard previously.

Sorry but in two decades of studying m/p cases I've never seen a ping prove or advance investigation. Including my missing nephew's.
They discuss "pings" when there is no real news to share

Honestly with all this new information they do need more help to search it seems…
Residents of the Arden Villa apartments in Orange County were sent an email saying law enforcement will be entering all occupied garages and storage units throughout the day, as had been seen by drone a day earlier.

The complex is near the University of Central Florida but surrounded by a heavily wooded area.
Search for Miya Marcano fans out, with storage units also checked

LIVE UPDATES: FBI to reach out to local field office regarding Miya Marcano’s disappearance
Good! I respect the Orange County Sheriff’s Department but they need more help STAT.

Just got an alert from WFLA that they're live w/ OCSO. I'm watching via the WFLA App.
Oh my gosh please if you don’t mind update us. I cannot watch at the moment.
Thank you.

So the FBI is now assisting with the technology aspect. Interesting.

Sure thing. So far they've said that they're searching the area via air and watercraft, and land. It's a vast area so there's a lot to cover. The reason they first went to Miya's place was because they were called to do a welfare check. The FBI is aiding in the technology aspect - I'm guessing cell phone and car GPS data.

He's not saying MUCH, he'll answer with "I won't say anything about that but I can say this...." but he did just say that they didn't arrest the POI because there was no evidence to do so.

The back way to New Smyrna has a lot of woods/palm tree/overgrowth - it will be difficult to search but the cell phone pings might lead them to her location like they did Taylor Rose...
