He Paid Online Spellcasters to Curse His Wife. Then She Vanished | Maya Millete
In January 2021, Maya Millete, a mother of three from Chula Vista, California, disappeared. Surveillance cameras captured no footage of her leaving her neighborhood, and her body has never been found. Jonathan and Cooper walk through the case against her husband, Larry Millete. Maya had told her family that if anything happened to her, Larry would be the reason. She had just borrowed $10,000 to hire a divorce attorney. After she disappeared, investigators found 1,700 pages of messages on Larry's laptop. For more than a year he had paid online spellcasters. At first he wanted spells to keep her in the marriage, but later he asked them to make her sick, break her bones and put her in an accident. Two days after she vanished, before anyone had reported her missing, he asked them to lift every hex off her. The episode also covers the 444 unexplained miles on the family Lexus, the freezer rolled out of the house, Maya's secret relationship with a coworker, and how prosecutors won a first-degree murder conviction against Larry without ever explaining how she died. Plus, Jonathan and Cooper react to Larry Millete’s sentencing and what the verdict means for Maya’s family. For important links from this episode, check out our source material here.
