Show Notes
In this heartbreaking true crime episode, we examine the disappearance and death of 19‑year‑old Miya Marcano, a Valencia College student who vanished from her Orlando apartment in September 2021. What started as a routine day turned into a terrifying ordeal when Miya never returned home or boarded a planned flight — prompting a frantic search by family and law enforcement.
CBS News
Investigators traced the last known movements of Miya to her apartment complex, where evidence showed her unit had been accessed with a master key by Armando Manuel Caballero, a maintenance worker who had reportedly made unwanted advances toward her. After Miya was reported missing, Caballero was later found dead from an apparent suicide, leaving behind unanswered questions. Less than a week after her disappearance, Miya’s body was discovered in a wooded area outside Orlando, bound with duct tape — a tragic end to a promising life.

The case raised intense scrutiny over how missing persons reports are handled, prompting lawsuits against the sheriff’s office and significant discussion on tenant safety and police response.
