Summary
Maricris Drouaillet stood in a Chula Vista courtroom on January 28, 2026, and told Judge Enrique Camarena that her parents wake up every morning still waiting for justice for their daughter. She begged him not to grant another continuance. The defense cited personal family losses. The judge granted it. Again.This is Episode 5 of a five-part Hidden Killers series on the Larry Millete case. It covers every delay between the October 2021 arrest and the current trial date of May 11, 2026 — the competency freeze, the financial disputes, the defense team change, the venue change denial, and the chain of postponements that has pushed this case past the five-year mark without a single juror being seated.The therapy records from Maya's marriage counselor have finally been ordered released — unlocked by the five-year presumption-of-death threshold. Larry has told a reporter he will not accept a plea deal. The prosecution is ready. The family is ready. The evidence has been waiting in boxes since 2023.The system isn't broken in the way people usually mean. Every individual component is working as designed. The result just looks a lot like the opposite of justice. May 11. If it holds.
