Summary
Maya Millete called a divorce attorney on January 7, 2021. She came home at 4:42 PM. A neighbor's camera recorded nine banging sounds from the house that night. Her phone went dark at 1:25 AM and has never come back on. The next morning, her husband drove away in the family Lexus with his phone off for eleven hours and came home with hundreds of unexplained miles on the odometer.Then he told his wife's family she was locked in a room. When they opened the door, Maya was gone.This is Episode 3 of the Larry Millete series — a full reconstruction of the 48 hours between Maya's last confirmed moment and the filing of the missing persons report. It's built entirely from surveillance footage, cell phone records, vehicle data, and the statements Larry made to investigators, family, and neighbors — statements that changed depending on who was asking.The beach story that nobody could verify. The work story that contradicted the evidence. The car he repositioned so the rear wasn't visible to cameras. The detailing request. The deleted texts. Every piece of this timeline comes from the preliminary hearing testimony. Larry Millete has been charged with first-degree murder and has pleaded not guilty.
