Frantic search for Navy sailor who vanished from her Virginia barracks without a trace
Family and friends of a Virginia Navy sailor are looking for answers after her sudden disappearance - as officials warned that she may be in danger. Angelina 'Angie' Petra Resendiz, 21, was last seen at her barracks at Naval Station Norfolk on the morning of May 29. Her friends and family haven't heard from her since, which her mother says is very unusual. 'She calls my mother, she calls her brother, her sisters; she has friends—middle school friends she still talks to,' said Esmeralda Castle who headed to Virginia to learn more about her 21-year-old daughter's uncharacteristic departure. 'I need to start looking for my kid because I don't know what's going on.' Castle told WCEV that her daughter talks to her family every day, she even has a 400-day Snapchat streak with Castle's sister. She says Resendiz would never leave on her own without permission or miss work. 'My kid is missing, and she wouldn't just unauthorized, leave without permission. Angie's too scared to miss work; she wouldn't do that.' The 21-year-old's Navy base is the headquarters and home port of the U.S. Navy's Fleet Forces Command. Her barracks were located at Miller Hall. Virginia State Police issued a critically missing adult alert on June 3 for Resendiz. The notice says she was seen at 10am in Miller Hall the day she vanished. In their statement, police said her disappearance 'poses a credible threat' to her health and safety. The Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) confirmed to Daily Mail that Resendiz 'has not been seen or been in contact with family or friends since May 29.' NCIS also fears the young woman is in danger. Resendiz grew up in Texas, where her mother still lives, and works as a culinary specialist for the Navy. Castle told local news outlets that her daughter is extremely kind and loving. Police have described her as a 5-foot-tall Hispanic woman with brown eyes and black hair. Officials say she weighs about 110 pounds. She goes by the name Angie. According to the New York Post, her mother said it felt almost as if her daughter just stopped existing. 'She's spent no money, made no calls. She just stopped.' As the NCIS continues to investigate the case, they are looking for any and all information about her whereabouts. They're asking those with tips to call their tip line or submit via the NCIS website. Daily Mail reached out to Castle for comment.

Smokey Robinson sues ex housekeepers for £370 million over sexual assault claims
In their counter-filing, the Robinsons allege that the women made false claims of sexual misconduct as part of a scheme to extort money from the couple. Motown icon Smokey Robinson has filed a £370 million defamation lawsuit against four former housekeepers who accused him of sexual assault. The singer has called their claims 'extortionate' and 'fabricated.' The civil suit, filed on Wednesday in a California court by the 85-year-old singer and his wife Frances Robinson, names four anonymous women identified only as Jane Doe 1 through 4. In their filing, the Robinsons allege that the women made false claims of sexual misconduct as part of a scheme to extort money from the couple. The countersuit follows a May 6 complaint filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, in which the four women accused Robinson of pressuring them into sex over a period dating back to 2006. Their 27-page lawsuit, which remains sealed under pseudonyms, alleges that they refrained from speaking out earlier due to fears of losing their jobs, a backlash, embarrassment, and concerns over immigration status. In response, Robinson's legal team not only filed the defamation countersuit but also submitted a motion to dismiss the original claims. His attorneys argue that the plaintiffs should not be allowed to remain anonymous, citing a lack of legal grounds to withhold their identities. 'The Robinsons did not abuse, harm, or take advantage of plaintiffs; they treated plaintiffs with the utmost kindness and generosity,' the couple's lawsuit states. The couple further claim that the women were not merely staff members but were included in family trips and holiday celebrations, painting a picture of a long-standing and seemingly personal relationship. 'They fabricated their allegations and filed a legally and factually deficient complaint to harass and extort a beloved and respected public figure,' the lawsuit alleges. The women's original civil case seeks at least £38 million in damages for each count, of which they are women are of Hispanic descent, and the claims include multiple alleged incidents of sexual misconduct over nearly two decades. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department has launched a criminal investigation into the allegations. The Tears of a Clown hitmaker, through his attorney, has denied all claims and said he welcomed the inquiry. 'Exposure to the truth is a powerful thing,' he said. Robinson's attorney said the criminal complaint and civil suit are financially motivated. 'They are after his money,' the lawyer said, reiterating that the singer has done nothing wrong. Robinson is one of the most celebrated artists in American music history. A founding member of Motown Records, he was responsible for some of the label's biggest early hits, including 'My Girl' for The Temptations and 'My Guy' for Mary Wells. As both a solo artist and songwriter, he has been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and is credited with writing or co-writing more than 4,000 songs.
