Larry Millete: She Named Him Before She Vanished

Author: True Crime Today April 14, 2026 Duration: 26:28

Maya Millete didn't disappear without warning. She told her sister on New Year's Eve 2020 exactly what she feared — and exactly who she feared it from. She told her brother, her sister-in-law, and a receptionist at a divorce attorney's office. She texted her husband in capital letters: I DON'T WANT TO BE YOUR WIFE ANYMORE. She had an appointment with a lawyer. She had a financial plan. She had a daughter's birthday to celebrate first.This is Episode 1 of a five-part Hidden Killers series on Larry Millete and the disappearance of his wife Maya from their Chula Vista, California home on January 7, 2021. Maya has never been found. Larry has been charged with first-degree murder and has pleaded not guilty.Before the investigation. Before the arrest. Before the five years of trial delays. There was a woman who saw what was happening inside her own marriage — the tracking, the manipulation, the escalation — and had the clarity to name it. This episode is about Maya Millete as a person, not a case file. It's about the marriage that fell apart in 2020, the man who couldn't let go, and the woman who made sure that if she couldn't get out, the people she loved would know exactly where to look.
