Some cities use ShotSpotter to detect gunshots. This technology can determine the location of gunshots and distinguish actual gunshots from fireworks. ShotSpotter Technology - ShotSpotterHow is it even possible that loud gunshots don’t result in police being called?
Was a proper investigation ever done in the house, with a search warrant? Or does a homeowner need to be a POI first?
I don't remember.
Holy sh$/News 8 obtained an audio recording of the gunshots, which already has been turned over to Chula Vista Police.
The neighbor who provided News 8 the recording wanted to remain anonymous and did not want the video portion aired on TV because it identifies their house.
It was recorded around 10 p.m. on Thursday, January 7, the same night Maya went missing and the same night her husband, Larry Millete, reportedly had an argument with his wife.
News 8 caught up Thursday afternoon with Larry Millete's father, Benito, walking to the park with two of his grandchildren.
Investigative producer David Gotfredson asked him about all the speculation swirling around the missing person case.
“The speculation is, Maya say... go by herself, OK? Just like the first statement, right?” the grandfather said.
News 8 also asked Benito Millete about the ongoing search for Maya.
“The family of Maya is looking for a dead body. We're still waiting,” he said.
6 bangs, sounding like gunshots heard night Maya Millete missing | cbs8.com
6 loud bangs the night MM went missing, just posted 35minutes ago on youtube. any confirmation if this is legit? (Video below)
I hear a ping like a bullet hit metal, then there's a dog, maybe the only one paying attention to the big noise happening on the block. You'd think neighbors would be gawking out their windows and calling LE. It almost sounds like someone target practicing. I just can't believe no neighbors in got the Police there immediately. Those sound like gun shots not fireworks.I feel speechless right now. The shots are chilling. I hear something between 2-3 seconds. Anyone else hear it? Do you think it’s the dog whining?

I have to respect that LE has kept all these details close to the vest and have kept the integrity of their investigation a priority. They are moving towards a goal.
It's easy to get confused, but shots happened on Thursday night. LM heard her rustling in the kitchen on Friday night.MOO - shooting occurs at 10, and kids outside at 1030 - did the shots wake them up? Maybe they were told to go play outside while the body was moved. Doesn’t explain why he pretends to hear her Friday when MM was “cooking dinner” for herself. These poor children. The pressure is on, but I am getting nervous about these “leaks”. Feels like tipping their hand to the defense team.
If Chula Vista’s Ring/Neighbor app is anything like LA’s, there would have been at least one post asking if anyone else heard gunshots or fireworks. I hope other neighbors confirmed hearing those shots. The grandpa may not have heard them, but as loud as they were, someone else should be able to confirm.Some cities use ShotSpotter to detect gunshots.

Interesting thoughts. Does a nail gun make that much noise though? Trying to picture what happened. It's 10 p.m. they're arguing, he found out about the divorce attorney appt., she huffs off and locks herself in the bedroom...I picture a nail gun...or some sort of tool in the garage.
I think the only reason LM indicated he heard Maya cooking dinner was to give himself more leeway in the time line.

Do we know if Grandpa Millette was at the home prior to Maya going missing? Or did LM’s family come afterward to help with the children etc? My memory is awful. Just curious. Obviously if he wasn’t at the home, he couldn’t have heard gunshots. Curiosity and speculation only.If Chula Vista’s Ring/Neighbor app is anything like LA’s, there would have been at least one post asking if anyone else heard gunshots or fireworks.

I can’t believe all the info that’s come out the last few days. It’s more and more surprising to me that there isn’t at least a person of interest. Poi doesn’t necessarily equate to suspect, I wonder why LM wasn’t one and ruled out from the start, or why he isn’t one now. Especially since he was the last one to interact with her according to the timeline.
I also thought strangling; crime of passion, and, imo, it’s a very personal way to hurt someone. As soon as this became a big news story, I’d hope the other neighbors (like the one with the video) would have mentioned the sound to police too.Interesting thoughts.

If LM did lose it, I always thought choking not using a gun. Six bullets would be like over kill. No way could you go to the beach the next day just locking the door because Saturday the family shows up. Who else was in the house other than the girls on Friday during the day?
The news story linked says police have had this surveillance video for almost 3 monthsI also thought strangling; crime of passion, and, imo, it’s a very personal way to hurt someone.
