From above article, she was found about 10 miles from her barricks. How did she get there? I thought the wooded area was right next to the barricks? She had uneaten food in her room, so she had planned to eat not go running/hiking or something IMO.

Agree and how was she located? Maybe the ‘other’ sailor buckled under questioning
Such an awful waste of young life.
IMO

I hope this case gets moved to civil trial as I have no faith in the prosecution of the person who killed her. So many times reports of harassment and sexual assult gets swept under the rug and those guilty people are protected by COs and their buddies. I mean they have detained someone but will not release their name. WHY?

I think you're right. I wonder if someone just found her or if the killer confessed and told them where to go. That someone is already in custody makes me think the later.

I tend to agree.
The body of Culinary Specialist Seaman Angelina Petra Resendiz, 21, was discovered Monday by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service in a wooded area in Norfolk, Virginia, NCIS said in a statement.

The question is, why else would the NCIS know to be looking in that particular wooded area, which is 9 miles away from the base?

It sounds like that person was under suspicion after being out with her on the Thursday night, them both being missing, and then one of them later turning up without the other. It seems that the news of her body being found came out around the same time as the other sailor being reported to be in custody.

New Details Revealed in Case of Sailor Who Vanished from Navy Base and Was Later Found Dead: ‘Betrayal of Trust, of Duty’

New details have been revealed tied to the death of Angelina Petra Resendiz, a sailor who went missing from a Navy base and was later found dead on June 9. Jermiah Copeland is ‘the person being detained or confined, on suspicion’ in the case of Resendiz, her mom's lawyer revealed, as the...

people.com

“The Navy confirmed that Jermiah Copeland is the person being detained or confined, on suspicion in this case,” Griffin told the outlet after an initial review officer’s hearing at the Naval Consolidated Brig in Chesapeake.

Copeland will remain in pretrial confinement, because of the seriousness of the charges, Griffin told WAVY. The attorney said the exact charges are not yet known and have yet to be determined by the ongoing investigation into Resendiz’s death.

Some outlets are spelling his name “Jeremiah.” I haven’t found any MSM sources, but if you google him, there’s some interesting posts on social media.

The issues include a public timeline and accountability from the Navy and NCIS, disclosure of non-disclosure agreements service members were required to sign involving the case, collaboration on a civilian family guide, and access to documents under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) for the Resendiz family, among others.

I hope she gets what she's asking for, and that systematic change to keep female servicemembers safer really happens (not sure it will be a priority for the next few years). Murder by fellow servicemembers shouldn't be a job hazard for women in the military - and yet, every time it happens, the outcome is shocking but less and less surprising.

RIP Angelina. You deserved better than this, but your mama's working on bringing you some justice.

I’m not sure what the stats are for women who are murdered by a service member, but if they are available I’d like to see them. There are a few notable cases, one being Vanessa Guillen.

In other cases I’ve seen here over the years. I think the overarching problem is the communication with the victims family. It’s virtually non-existent, additionally there is no military liaison to guide and keep the family up to date through the military investigation and/or court martial process.

With Angie, they categorized her as AWOL for six days!!! Not missing, it wasn’t until her Mom rattled a few cages that any action was taken. The military mishandled it from the very start.

I would, too. I'm sure the military tracks them somehow, but I wouldn't be surprised if they aren't openly available for optics reasons. I suspect that the recurrent communication issues with victims' families stem from similar concerns, in part; the military doesn't want to look bad, so they don't communicate, or they're reactive instead of being proactive. Unfortunately, that response rarely seems to work in the victim's favor.

I can't think of many other jobs (besides sex work, unfortunately) where women seem to face such a risk to their life in the course of their job, that is not an inherent hazard of their role. When an employee kills other employees in a civilian job, that's shocking workplace violence, and employers make systemic changes in response.

When workplace violence happens in the military, they often seem to be caught off guard at what they view as an isolated incident. The military inherently has to make their recruits more comfortable with violence and killing so they can participate in war, and their recruits generally live in close proximity, so how do the military ensure that the "job skills" they are taught are only used in wartime situations? Even by recruits of varying mental health. Even when our society already has an issue with violence against women.

Going back to civilian workplaces for a second, when a company's job skills are fixing computers or baking cakes, it's no big deal if their employees do them outside of work. But when the job skills are killing people and being desensitized to violence, employers (the military) have a much larger responsibility to manage and monitor their employees for the safety of others. It doesn't seem like that is happening enough.

If you ask ChatGPT the stat question. It comes up with some interesting points, many are the same raised in the post above.

 

[sds71]

The murder of Vanessa Guillen sparked outrage across the U.S. and led to a surge of questions surrounding women’s deaths in the military including: the correlation between sexual assault or sexual harassment and murder, deaths ruled suicides by the military but disputed by the family, and the obvious disproportionate murders and sexual assaults of women of color.

While conducting our research of suspicious deaths of women in the military, we found that of the 53 women included in our research, 13 percent had experienced sexual harassment or sexual assault during their military service.

Unfortunately, Vanessa Guillen is not the first case to receive attention for sexual assault and harassment.
Every two years since 2006, the Department of Defense releases a report on the prevalence of sexual assault in active duty. Additionally, about every year the DOD releases an annual report on sexual assault in the military that details sexual assault report rates and the programs focusing on sexual assault prevention.

According to the 2019 report, the DOD saw a three percent increase in sexual assault reports from the 2018 figure. Hopefully, this increase in reporting is a positive sign suggesting that more active military members feel supported and comfortable with coming forward after experiencing sexual assault or harassment.

Of the 54 cases we studied, approximately 11 percent involved some sort of inconsistency between Army conclusions and the opinions of those who knew the deceased...
