A group gathered Tuesday in Honolulu, Hawaii, hometown of missing mother-of-three Maya Millete, to keep the pressure on authorities three months after she disappeared from the California home she shares with her husband and children. Another volunteer search is planned for Saturday in California.
Maya May Millete, 39, was last seen at her home in Chula Vista, California, on Jan. 7. The city in San Diego County is about 10 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. Fox News exclusively reported this week that a witness alleges Maya s husband, Larry Millete, believed his wife had a boyfriend and discussed a plan to pay someone $20,000 to kill him just days before Maya went missing.
