A Brownsville sailor found dead in Virginia will be back in the Rio Grande Valley Friday evening.

The body of Angelina Resendiz was found on June 9 outside the naval base she was stationed at.

She was a culinary specialist with the U.S. Navy who had been living at the Norfolk Naval Station for more than a year and was last seen on May 29.

Resendiz’s family said she will receive full military honors once she arrives at the Valley International Airport on Friday, June 20 at 8:45 p.m.

An unidentified Navy sailor is in pre-trial confinement in connection with her death, and has yet to be charged.
