San Diego, CA, July 29, 2026 —
During the ongoing trial of Larry Millete, who is accused in the disappearance of his wife Maya Millete, a District Attorney’s investigator presented testimony suggesting Maya’s body was disposed of near the Colorado River Reservation.
The investigator detailed evidence gathered, including analysis of vehicle mileage logs, cell phone data, and toll road transaction records. This evidence points to a significant period on January 8, 2021, during which Larry Millete’s vehicle reportedly traveled 444 miles over a 12-hour span without a clear accounting for the journey.
Based on the data, investigators infer that the vehicle traveled approximately 222 miles to a remote desert area. This location is believed to be where Maya Millete’s body was potentially dumped. The investigator noted that this area is one the family had visited in the past.
Further details regarding the specific nature of the evidence, such as the exact toll road transactions or precise cell phone data points, were not provided in the testimony summary. The exact location within the Colorado River Reservation where the body is suspected to have been disposed of was also not specified.
Larry Millete is facing charges related to the disappearance of his wife, Maya Millete, who was last seen in January 2021. The trial is ongoing, with further testimony expected to present additional details of the investigation.
