The body of Miya Marcano, found last weekend after an eight-day-long search across Central Florida, was bound with black duct tape across her mouth and tape also tying her hands and feet together, Orange County Sheriff John Mina said at a Wednesday evening press conference.
Mina said officials think 27-year-old Armando Caballero, a maintenance employee at the Arden Villas complex where Marcano lived, was waiting for her inside her apartment Sept. 24, before he killed her and dumped her body at another Orlando area apartment complex.
Marcano, 19, was found wearing jeans and a bra, as well as a robe, Mina said, and her purse was found nearby containing the shirt she was last seen wearing. Her cause of death has not yet been determined, but Mina said there is no indication she was sexually assaulted before her death.
