Larry Millete Convicted in Maya Millete's Murder, the "Ghost" Sword-Murder Trial of Isaac Apodaca in Grace Jennings's Killing, and a Verdict

A three-case roundup. In San Diego, a jury convicted Larry Millete, 44, of first-degree murder in the death of his wife, Maya Millete, a Chula Vista mother who vanished in January 2021 and whose body has never been found; prosecutors built the case partly on messages Millete allegedly sent to online spellcasters before she disappeared, and jurors convicted in under a day without agreeing on the method of killing. In Santa Fe, New Mexico, the first-degree murder trial of Isaac Apodaca, 30, is underway in the 2022 sword killing of 21-year-old Grace Jennings; prosecutors say Apodaca never held the weapon but spent months manipulating his girlfriend, Kiara McCulley — who pleaded guilty and is testifying — into the killing by convincing her she was part of a vigilante group. Apodaca has pleaded not guilty and says he was the one manipulated. And in Lompoc, California, Ashlee Buzzard, 40, charged with murder in the death of her nine-year-old daughter Melodee Buzzard — whose remains were found in Utah in December after she was reported missing in October 2025 — was back in court; she has pleaded not guilty, and her preliminary hearing is set for September. This episode discusses the killing of a young woman and the death of a child; the Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline are available 24/7.
