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

  • #521
I'm just now hearing about this NSB search. For about a year, I was the editor of the NSB newspaper. The south causeway features a lot of mangroves along the south side of the bridge. It is very difficult to trudge through there. It sounds like they were staging near that area. They could search for days without finding something. I'm not sure what led them to that area. But it's possible that he went there with plans to jump. But he could have left her there. I would expect him to choose a more secluded location. There is lots of swampy land between east Orlando and NSB. Some of that area has a high concentration of gators. I hate saying that. But it's reality.

This is so brutal. I just hope she can be found to give her loved ones some kind of closure. It would be sooo hard to always be wondering.
I’m from Orlando myself and know the surrounding areas well. This is a very, very difficult search.
Even in death he couldn’t admit what he did? He is pure evil.

It is rainy season and I just can't imagine him trudging thru a lot of damp, wet, muck filled ground with her. Perps are generally lazy and this dude is definitely not too bright.

Send us a sign Miya. Your family needs you home.

It's a huge area of winding waterway. Unless he had a boat I don't see him going too far in. The staging area was an old Winn Dixie and Outback Steakhouse. It's been closed for ages. A friend rented it out at the beginning of the Afghanistan war and used to pack boxes for the soldiers there. I know of a planned hotel that's supposed to be going there. It's VERY dark there at night. I don't know how many people actually know that the area exists there. The high bridge is too busy in recent years to drop someone over. The growth in the area is crazy the last five years or so. Absolutely nothing existed in that area when I started driving that route back in '81. I could clearly see the ocean with almost no high rises. Across the road there's a big housing subdivision on the water, used to be a garbage dump. Why exactly are they searching there? There's so much empty land between there and I-4 that he could have left her, tons of wooded area. Tons. Do they know of any stops he made along the way?
Maybe LE does but it hasn’t been released to the media anyways.

This was at the complex where he hung himself - I believe he started at Miya’s complex this past July - although he was just accused of this incident it seems like a response to rejection pattern IMO

noting July start date confirmed in her media thread
And from Margaret Joe, a member of the Yukon Legislative Assembly,
a brief quote by Margaret Atwood.

“‘Why do men feel threatened by women?’ I asked a male friend of mine.
“‘They are afraid women will laugh at them’, he said, ‘undercut their world view.’
“Then I asked some women students, ‘Why do women feel threatened by men?’
“‘They are afraid of being killed,’ they said.”

Father of Missing Fla. College Student Miya Marcano 'Strongly Believes' He Will Find Daughter
Feel so badly for this family. There's a quote from Miya’s father here saying that her phone went off at 5 o’clock. So turned off when she entered in the apartment for some reason by the prime suspect?

Snipped from article -
"At a press conference on Monday, Orange County Sheriff John Mina named Armando Manuel Caballero, 27, a person of interest in Miya's disappearance. Prior to the press conference, Caballero was found dead by suicide Monday inside his apartment in Seminole County."

This is contradictory to being found in a paint closet/room. Lots of info in this People article. Thanks!

Yeah, I’m wondering if that one statement is correct?

Curious as to "pinpointing" a ping. Bouchelle Island Condominiums are right there on the north side of the causeway, however, they are focused on the south side of the causeway.

The ping came from the condos? What are you saying?

We’ve reached out to deputies to ask if this is related to the search for #MiyaMarcano.

Multiple forensics units are entering Tymber Skan apartments right now. I also found at least a dozen @OrangeCoSheriff deputies cars lined up on the other side near Lake Catherine. @WFTV
@CNavarroWFTV

Here’s a look over the scene right now on Skywitness 9. The entrance to the Tymber Skan complex is blocked off but you can see deputy vehicles are spread out across the roads near the lake. 10 minutes until the #MiyaMarcano update

Thank you for the updates sds71.
I know the chances she was alive after Friday were so slim but I’m still praying for a miracle…

#BREAKING: Deputies have found a body believed to be #MiyaMarcano.
@OrangeCoSheriff
says crews found the body at Tymber Skan apartments in Orange County this morning.
@WFTV

Cell phone records show the prime suspect- Armando Caballero- was in or near Tymber Skan the day she was reported missing, Friday September 24. He was found dead 2 days later.


@OrangeCoSheriff
says cell phone pings from #ArmandoCaballero led them to Tymber Skan apartments where they found a body around 10am this morning. Sheriff Mina says they’re confident it’s #MiyaMarcano. Her purse was also found near it.
@WFTV

Sheriff: “As a community, sheriff and as a father, we are grieving.”
So we are not looking for any other people, we believe, pretty conclusively that Armando Caballero is responsible for this crime and there's not any other person or persons that we are looking for in this case

Sigh…

I guess the only consolation for the family is that it seems she was placed there on Friday evening - so there is nothing anyone could have done to prevent it… this is just such a horrible situation.

I knew it was coming...but it still hurts. Be at peace Miya.
