  • When Miya Marcano failed to board her plane home to see her family, everyone knew something was wrong. When they saw the state of her apartment, this further cemented their fears. But it was their gut instinct about a man working in her complex, that would start to give them the answers they needed…

    God, I'm so sick of these small, petty, selfish little men who can't take no for an answer! Telling him no doesn't make her a b*tch, it just means she's not interested. Take it in stride and move on! He does not have the right to hurt or kill her 😩

      Like these freaking incels popping up everywhere. Dude, if you can't attract a girlfriend, it isn't because you are not wealthy or handsome. It is because you are an utter asshole with no personality or any redeeming qualities, whatsoever. Instead of looking within, they look at all women as evil and let their deranged hatred fester. Another enraging fact is that these losers want to fixate on women and girls who look like supermodels, when they themselves are pasty, slovenly weirdos. I consider myself a bit of a weirdo, but I think that anyone reading this would know what I mean.

    Deputy Paulino was basically an accomplice to the crime: ignoring blood evidence, a discarded weapon under her bed, broken jewellery, fingerprints on the clearly broken in window, her stalker unnecessarily turning up at the crime scene, more potential weapons in her stalker’s car, not informing any of his superiors…she might still have been alive at that point. What an absolute disgrace of a police officer.
    He did everything he could to be dismissive about her disappearance and downplay her importance and the seriousness of the blatant evidence of a violent attack in her room. Thoroughly disgusting. I hope he’s haunted by his criminal negligence for the rest of his life.

    Miya's mother is amazing. She was totally engaged with her daughter's life, knows her friends, and had open communication with her about her life. This pos Armando thought that he could tell Miya's mother some b.s. Tragically, this shows that even attentive family who pay attention aren't always able to protect their loved ones. It's not their fault, they were everything.
    I wish there was something I could say but there really isn't, other than my prayers are with the family. This should have never happened. Rest in Peace.

      This is NOT to take blame from the killer. I just have an unpopular opinion regarding this:
      The types of pics young women place on social media.
      She had a lot of seductive pics on fb and her privacy settings were public.
      I have no doubt lusting at and constantly obsessing over those photos led him to believe they had a connection, which he continuously insisted existed even though she always rejected him.
      He had a run in with another woman with the same obsessive behaviour but she was not killed. Her window was maliciously broken and that was that.
      Ppl are free to lead their lives as they wish, but they must always understand there are consequences especially when you’re a female.
      If posting explicit photos, put those photos privacy settings to be seen only by friends and family.

In my building, not only are there cameras inside and outside my apartment, but if maintenance wants in, they use their FOB, my phone rings, I see them live on video in from of my door, and I enter my pin to grant them temporary access.

      There are, but the complex that hired him either didn’t do a background check, or he wasn’t in the databases bc his charges weren’t followed through with or dropped. If he DID have a record-it’s possible he was only jailed for misdemeanors or juvenile offenses. No employer would’ve seen those, & it wouldn’t require him to be on a “violent offender registry.” However-even if the employer missed it or ignored it in the beginning-once they got complaint after complaint, they should have pressed charges & fired him.

      Maybe not the best place for me to be talking trivial ideas like this.
      She was beautiful though and it is sad that some weird goofball who doesn't know how to appreciate something like that, took her away from everyone, and everyone from her

The man was obsessed with her he sent her $700 for “being pretty” i can imagine that was so terrifying for her. He could have just been like “wow she pretty” and moved on but he felt like he had to have her like a trophy. That’s how I took it

    About 15 years ago, we had an apartment complex here with multiple families reporting clothing randomly missing from their childrens' bedrooms. One mother came home to find a maintenance worker in her daughter's bedroom. He claimed to be checking the fire alarms and left. He was actually a resident that worked as a maintenance worker to reduce his rent.
    When they searched for his name, they found he was a registered sex offender for 'possession of inappropriate images of children under 10'. The apartment complex never did any sort of background check, but gave him keys to every apartment in the complex. They sold out the safety of their residents in order to hire someone that would work for next to nothing.

      Thats a silly comment, why would you want to persecute the people who are employed to help because you think they should have done more or acted differently? They did not intentionally hinder the case and these people spend their time helping to keep the country safe. If you want more done you need to oppose the silly left wing laws that prevent them doing more, like laws that they need a search warrant to look inside a car etc. Tbh the mistakes in this case were likely due to the fact that people are constantly reported missing and it usually comes to nothing. Also taking the police to court costs the taxpayer money and then any payments won in the case are paid by the taxpayer too, its an extremely selfish act.

      He in both cases told straight up verifiable lies, stated things to be known to him/them as absolute facts that are easily identified as just untrue statements top to bottom, probably false statements...
      Police staying, very publicly, that verifiably false details are absolutely true... It either points towards an insane level of incompetence, or it shows they are just outright lying, with no other options.
      Yet courts have to take what these proven liars say as the truth, they can't just disregard a lying cop, because he's a known liar, they have to PRETEND they're honest, knowing they aren't, it's gross

My family did take it seriously and I was protected to the best of their ability. The man who did this died a long time ago. I’ve been able to get therapy. It’s something that caused so much trouble and it always will affect me. I’m so grateful, though, that I got that chance. And I’m absolutely horrified and infuriated for Mia and her family. This many years later and despite so much effort to get laws put in place AND it’s still happening? I don’t know how these LEO’s can sleep at night.

      or the Brinks Home Security Bar. Both are perfect for apartments and under 25 dollars. Unfortunately this case is not the first time something like this has happened and it won't be the last.

    I remember when this happened, it scared everyone that lived in apartments. You never know who is working maintenance. I felt so bad for her family, they knew from the beginning it was him.

    Even with better security, there are no guarantees. This was the maintenance worker!!!!

    Is anyone else bawling? This case gives me a heavy heart. Condolences to her family and friends, their loss must be immense. Rest in Peace Miya 🦋The world is a bit darker without your light 💙

    I wonder if that first deputy feels guilty about not getting the investigation going when he first entered her apartment. I hope so , hoped he learnt something from this .

    LEO Paulino was an absolute incompetent pos. Let that be HIS daughter whose room he would have walked in on, I'm sure he wouldn't have dismissed it. I hope this follows him for the rest of his sh!tty career. 10 days of unpaid leave? What a joke! I've seen harsher punishments for a lot less. Ugh, this case infuriates me. Prayers for her family.

    A friend of mine was friends with her and when this happened even nearby Tampa and Lakeland was shaken up. May she rest in peace
