Larry Millete Never Searched — The Family Did

Larry Millete Never Searched — The Family Did

Author: True Crime Today April 17, 2026 Duration: 18:10

The investigation into Maya Millete's disappearance produced sixty-seven search warrants and eighty-seven interviews. Her family organized volunteer searches at the Glamis sand dunes, Anza-Borrego Desert, Lower Otay Lake, and locations across Southern California. For nine months, they showed up every weekend. Larry Millete — the man whose wife was missing — never showed up once.This is Episode 4 of a five-part Hidden Killers series. In it, we cover the full arc from the missing persons report on January 9, 2021, through the arrest on October 19, through the custody war that didn't resolve until August 2024.The investigation tightened around Larry in stages: he lawyered up in February 2021 and stopped cooperating. Police seized his guns in May after his children reported feeling unsafe. He was named a person of interest in July. And in October, the DA charged him with first-degree murder without Maya's body — betting the case on the digital trail, the mileage gap, and the silence of a man who never once searched for his wife.Then came the fight for the children. Three years of legal combat. A grandmother texting the oldest daughter to lock the doors during visitation. A note found in a child's room with instructions on avoiding contact with Maya's family. A judge who finally said: enough.
