Military Murder

In January 2021, 39-year-old mother of three Maya Millete disappeared from her Chula Vista, California home just days before a planned family trip to celebrate her oldest daughter’s birthday. Her loved ones immediately knew something was wrong.

As investigators began retracing Maya’s final days, they uncovered a marriage in crisis, plans for divorce, increasingly troubling behavior from her husband Larry Millete, and a bizarre trail of messages involving spell casters.

In Part 1, we look at who Maya was, what was happening inside her marriage, the final day she was seen, and the investigation that slowly began pointing closer to home.

In October 1991, a pickup truck crashed through the front window of a Luby’s Cafeteria in Killeen, Texas. What followed was one of the deadliest mass shootings in American history (at the time).

In this episode, I examine the events of that tragic day, the victims whose lives were forever changed, and the lasting impact the massacre had on discussions surrounding public safety, concealed carry laws, and mass violence in the United States.
