This episode covers three overlapping storylines: the investigation that led to Larry's arrest, the family's search efforts, and the custody battle over Maya and Larry's three children.The investigation timeline: Larry hired an attorney and stopped cooperating in February 2021. Reports surfaced in April that he wanted to hire someone to harm the man Maya was allegedly seeing. In May, police seized his firearms under a GVRO after the children reported feeling unsafe. In July, he was named a person of interest. On October 19, 2021, he was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and possession of an assault weapon. DA Summer Stephan publicly detailed the evidence and asked the public to help locate Maya's body.The custody timeline: Maricris Drouaillet filed for guardianship in November 2021. Larry's parents opposed. The case was delayed by Larry's competency proceedings, financial disputes, and deposition delays. The guardian ad litem recommended Maricris, noting that Larry's parents had blocked therapy and undermined visitation. Judge Ronald Frazier ruled in Maricris's favor on August 12, 2024. The children moved to Riverside County.Larry Millete has pleaded not guilty. Trial set for May 11, 2026.
