Summary
Every trial date has been called final. None of them have held. Larry Millete was arrested in October 2021 for the murder of his wife Maya. He has pleaded not guilty. And as of this recording — more than four years later — he has never sat in front of a jury.This is Episode 5 of the Larry Millete series, and it covers the legal grind that has defined this case since the arrest. A competency evaluation that froze proceedings for three months and was resolved in five minutes. A defense attorney who couldn't continue because Larry couldn't afford her. A new legal team that needed preparation time. A venue change request — denied. A gag order request — denied. And then delay after delay after delay: September 2024, July 2025, January 2026, March 2026, May 2026. Every one requested by the defense. Every one granted by the court.Maya's sister Maricris has been in that courtroom for every hearing. On January 28, 2026, she begged the judge to stop granting delays, telling him her parents don't know how much time they have left. The judge granted the delay anyway.Trial is now set for May 11, 2026. Larry says no plea deal. The evidence is ready. The family is ready. The question is whether the calendar will finally hold.
