A missing Navy sailor was found dead, leading to the arrest of another, the Naval Criminal Investigative Service said.
Angelina “Angie” Resendiz, 21, mysteriously vanished on May 26 at her barracks in Miller Hall at Naval Station Norfolk.
Her body was discovered in a wooded area in Norfolk on Monday. Another Navy sailor “has been placed in pretrial confinement” in connection with the incident.
The Texas native was a culinary specialist assigned to the USS James E. Williams. She joined the Navy in 2023 after graduating from high school “because she felt it was something that called her.”
“She thought that one day she might be able to cook for the president and other world leaders,” Resendiz’s mother, Esmeralda Castle, said.
“People that care about Angie shared with me that the last person she was with was missing with her. That person showed up [on June 2], but not Angie.”
“There are no answers for me. I just want answers. I just want my kid.”
