[@vernonfrance2974]

The security guard is ignorant of proper evidence collecting protocol. The police had no authority to collect fingerprints either and by collecting them the security guard made them worthless in court as they would not be admissible. He was well meaning but if he had been a good security guard he would have been more aware of a break-in.

[@BiggestRedditor]

Lay out the solution for how the cops could’ve done something differently. Show us how your big brain would juggle thousands of cases and how you could immediately prioritize everything. You people will sit here watching cops solves cases all day and them recording everything they do and then you’ll complain and moan that they can’t immediately throw the entire police force at every missing persons case right away. 99.999% of missing persons reports like this everybody is fine they have to do something called prioritizing. If they immediately opened a murder investigation on every missing persons case they’d have no time for stabbings and gun murders where they know for a fact someone died

[@JANEEDISTURBED]

When The People must take the law into their own hands. The Law failed this family. It failed The People as well.

[@JANEEDISTURBED]

​@BiggestRedditor First of all, take cases like this more seriously. Switch shifts instead of "being closed on certain days, and open on others". I mean WHO DOES THAT? Second, hire decent people. Not trigger happy cops with a chip on their shoulder. Thirdly, lay off the damn donuts. That list just gets super long. Do you realize the more "authorities" prioritize, as you like to call it, the colder cases like these get? Reason why so many *MUCH YOUNGER* aka Children become missing. And by the time your beloved cops and their "prioritizing" even gets around to things like 🤔 being open even on holidays to do their damn jobs their paid to do, as like the Sheriff's office was closed! Really?! Those missing persons become more and more endangered. Every second counts in cases like these. Not getting around to even starting a full blown investigation is called incompetence. Which is what these cops were guilty of themselves. Incompetence. Standing around while this family asked all of the important pertinent questions that should have been asked by them, PIs, detectives even. This police district didn't even have a detective division branch! So how about YOU tell US, how certain "law enforcement" can also tell people like a victim's family not to do anything? "Let them do their job." Yet they never get around to doing their job? With all of the money received & oftentimes, taken, and all of the people that could become a legit job for another decent police officer, they choose people who stand around looking like police? C'Mon! When it is one of your loved ones, I bet you have a whole different outlook with different words to throw at people then, aye. Bet. Until it touches you, you go ahead and sound the way you are here and now. Smdh

[@stooshmo]

Even worse was she was found a week later, but they could've found her earlier if they actually went to that location sooner. His phone pinged there. Earlier than the other locations they decided to search. He tried to spend the entire night driving to different cities to throw the location off before going to the apartment complex when he supposedly "hears she was missing"... Miya's death still leaves a large hole in her family's hearts. She is literally thought of DAILY.

I met both Miya and Armando. Even tho I spoke to her once she was sweet and complimented me, I’ve always thought she was so pretty everytime I saw her. Armando came into my complex once to fix broken plug. It’s crazy to think someone like that had access to our apartments.

[@GearSixLuffy]

I never understood why police say “the first 24 hours of a person missing are the most crucial to finding them” but then when an entire family travels to another state in search of their missing family member the cops say they won’t take it seriously for a few days?!?! Can anyone explain why cops do that?

[@KT06]

Yea make it make sense

[@jahniakennedy9481]

Depending on the missing persons age they don’t believe that anything bad has happened to them bc they are older/an adult. They don’t think it’s necessary to start looking for them right away bc if they do they might be “wasting” resources on a person that didn’t want to be found in the first place.

[@CoExist64]

They contradict themselves: the first 24 hours are important then also say wait 24-48 hours! If they don’t do anything immediately and you KNOW a loved one wouldn’t just disappear, then contact the local news stations and papers. It’s ridiculous, RIP Miya

[@toyamwarr]

Depending on the age of the person and the age of the people living in the area, law enforcement may decide to wait so the missing person can return on their own. They don’t want to immediately jump on finding someone who wasn’t actually missing.

[@LostHorizons0]

That’s because they say a bunch of bs to get the cameras off them and that’s it

[@Abelizred]

The level of incompetence shown by the police department is staggering. If a security guard is conducting a better investigation than the police, then the department needs an overhaul.

you mean underfunding and "overhaul" by 6x the budget

[@chrisnoname2725]

​@@zee-fr5kwThe police were not lacking resources they were lacking dedication to their responsibilities. How would more funding of a department help? It doesn't mean you attract better people with higher pay, it just gives more money to be siphoned by those at the top.

[@zee-fr5kw]

@@chrisnoname2725 extremely easy: more funding = more people to investigate + more qualified people to investigate. More dedicated people to investigate. More training more pay, more desire for people to go into policing. Instead of police becoming private investigators because it pays more they stay police officers. Funding is the soul issue. Of course the police won't immediately investigate an adult who is free to disappear whenever they want? Police aren't magical fairies who know everything. They have limited resources. And have to investigate selectively biased on evidence.

I've had to do this same exact thing. The Howell County Sheriff's Department decided that my daughters murder isn't worth their time because she was an addict. We (my husband, myself and my daughters 15 year old son) found her unresponsive in her 12 year old daughters bedroom. We knew the guy (Anthony Martin) murdered her and her own cousin (Janelle DeMeulemeester) gave him the drugs to kill her because she (Janelle) was sleeping with my daughters husband. In Missouri, an unattended death is supposed to be investigated as a homicide. They didn't do this. They took no statements, collected no evidence except for her phone. I had to make my own crime scene collection kit and collect all evidence including vacuuming. He put fentanal in her drink. She knew something was wrong bc she made herself vomit but it was too late. I collected everything and maintained the chain of custody so when I get an attorney, it's all admissible. It's BS that instead of grieving the loss of my first born, I had to collect the evidence and go over her autopsy report. BS. Don't get murdered in Howell County, MO because youll have to fight like hell to get justice. But justice my daughter will have, one way or another.

If the victim let apartment management know about the trouble she'd been having with the maintenance guy, he should either have been suspended, fired, or never allowed her keys or to be anywhere near her individual unit. Landlords lie all of the time about changing locks, doing background checks, giving this or that person access to your apartment - as though they can't be bothered to ensure the safety of tenants or their belongings.

There was a maintenance man breaking into apartments with his key at my first apartment…I was standing in front of my door and watched it go from locked to unlocked. I had enough time to grab my mace and when the door opened I blasted him, called 911, and chased him down the stairs. It was horrifying. I changed my locks even though the apartment said we weren’t supposed to after that and negotiated my way out of my lease…I can still remember my heart pounding when I saw that lock flip and both of my dogs had anesthesia that day…never again will I have multiple dogs recovering from anesthesia.

Door stops (brinks) or wedges, door cameras, never a 1st floor apt, blinds turned the correct ways with curtains, window locks, BEAR mace by your bed, and in your purse, a gun if you can, and other objects you know you can grab quickly. Also, car keys by your bed and a plan in your head of how you’ll escape. One last thing, lock your bedroom door too and add an extra if you feel like it when you go to sleep. That gives you an extra layer of protection and time.😎

Right like what was the point of having the family search for the blanket? There’s video of him carrying it and I’m sure the family has at least one photo of it to prove that they match, at least passably. At that point, all they had to do was ask him where he took the blanket from the video, and if he can’t supply it it’s clear he’s hiding something.

This is why protocols for missing persons need to be the same on a national level and outdated protocols such as waiting 48 hours scrapped. Its not fair the level and quality of policing can differ so widely depending on where you live.

An apartment complex should never have a master set of keys. Only the tenants should have access. They let this predator walk straight into her home.

[@dorkybarbie502]

They have to for maintenance and so they can gain entrance in emergency situations. Imagine a tenant is missing or out of town and their unit floods. Or someone gets evicted and keeps the only keys to the unit.

[@retha1875]

They no longer have masters. There are extra keys to eacg apartment that has to be logged out and accounted for.

I feel like they need a better more secured system for "master keys" . Remember almost anyone can buy an apartment if they have the funds . I totally agree

[@stevel205]

@ghostface3655 So many comments are saying "defund the police" is the problem, but that was just a cry for help and never hit policy in any country. Police funding has only increased. Others are saying police are lazy or corrupt and don't do their jobs, but I've seen too many examples of good police work to say it's a systemic problem, it is hard work. Go out and knock on some doors in your neighbourhood, see what response you get, then imagine you are wearing a uniform the community hates. I've knocked on doors as a Census worker, never had such hate directed at me just trying to gather statistics to provide the necessary services for an area. Do you need more childcare or hospitals? No one wants to talk and be civil to any federal or state employee. I think people want good, but that definition is troublesome because for many that is a religious definition and others it's philosophical. The hateful passages of biblical text vs what the intended message might be. Jesus would be too woke today and killed again. I'm not religious anymore, but I know all the books of the bible and I know they are filled with hate, except Jesus, he was a great guy. Just listen to him, says the atheist. In short, the Amercian dream is dead. - quote from Donald J Trump

When I lived in Largo, MD in the early 2000s a maintenance worker broke into my home at 4am. He didn’t know my boyfriend was there for the weekend. My boyfriend tried to restrain him but he got away. The police said we didn’t have any proof that it was the maintenance worker. We saw his face! Their argument was that the maintenance worker wouldn’t have broken the lock because he had a key. But that was just his preplanning. He broke the lock so he wasn’t a suspect. My family settled the issue with the maintenance worker, but I still moved.

Do we know conclusively that Armando did in fact kill himself? It doesnt sound like we do. My personal theory is that the police force involved with this investigation KNEW they botched it after things got serious and they realized that Armando was responsible. I think at this point, someone in the family was done dealing with the police's incompetence and took matters into their own hands, killing Armando. I think this is supported by the fact that we have video documentation of those close to the investigation stating that he didn't seem torn up, remorseful, or scared. He seemed cocky, arrogant, and annoyed. I think that he was in the middle of fleeing, and one of the family members of Miya (God rest her soul), stopped him from doing so, permanently. I think the police involved also knew this upon examination of his body, but they let it slide quietly as almost a payment for fucking up so badly in the first place. They allowed the family to get that they were owed in a way, or at least that particular family member. If I'm right about this, I just want that family member to know that I support the fuck out of you and I think God would understand in this case.. My heart truly goes out to everybody involved and impacted by this tragedy. I'm sorry for your loss, and I hope you can find some semblence of peace over time. God bless.
