CA CA - Maya Millete, 39, missed daughter's birthday, Chula Vista, 7 Jan 2021 #2

[Lusitana]

Not accusing anyone of anything, but the son could've been dropped off somewhere and there could have been a change of vehicles. I would make sure anyone who might be related to this case didn't have better suited vehicles for a terrain like, let's say, sand dunes.

Admittedly at the time I just interpreted the "now she's blocking everyone" as not answering the phone.

I would hope whoever was looking after the boy would have told LE about that to avoid being an accomplice! Moo

 

[Curious Me]

Could the removal of the Glamis pics and videos be the “hint” they got to search there?

The video on FB didn't seem to contain any clues though. It was her looking off into the distance and so much sand, sand, sand. It'd be hard to pinpoint a certain spot in all that sand. I think the story of him blocking will keep this case in the news, but wonder if he did the blocking.

If you watch the video here of this weekend's helicopter search of Glamis, you can see how, MOO, impossible it might be to find anything there.

I noticed many of the endearing pics of Maya with her children were removed when I went to her FB. I'm sure LE was going over all her social media profiles and online activity. I would think they'd restrict LM from tampering or changing anything. If LM was able, and allowed, to change and block her family? That would seem spiteful.

I would think that LE would allow LM to block views of the Facebook page to prevent media or others from accessing pictures of the children. I think that's standard operating procedure in cases like this.

However, I think blocking Maya's family would have been deliberate, but might be explained away by saying, "I didn't know how to block just some views."

JMO...IMO

That seems possible. Not sure it's always standard operating procedures in all the cases we've followed though.

However, they're minors, and even for their safety and privacy you don't want all the general public and media to have access and advertise their whereabouts. I imagine the daughters might have felt violated having their pics viewed by all the people going to Maya's FB page. It might be embarrassing for an 11 or 9 yr. old girl. One of them could've asked to have pics removed. (I say this because I am definitely not a "selfie person". People stealing your image to cat fish makes me nervous in general.)

As far as LM being the one blocking the family, I don't know if he did that. It seems that would antagonize Maya's family needlessly and why would LM want to do that? JMO, the family saying he did it will keep this case in the news.

 

[Curious Me]

Watching this other Glamis search video, they say a two hr. helicopter search can do a week's worth of searching. So much sand! I now know I don't have any desire to go to Glamis myself.

At the 1:40 mark, I think that's maybe Maya's niece in the copter.

How nice that a local business owner chipped in to buy helicopter air time for Maya sister & BIL on Monday.

Just curious....Who do you think would have blocked Maya's family from her Facebook pictures, etc., if not LM?

I am trying to think who else might have access to do that.

Speculation and not necessarily my beliefs:

• Maya herself
• Maya's children
• 3rd party unknown perpetrator
• Hacker/Troll (as @Bogyo13 highlighted upthread)

Think most people keep FB logged in on devices. Anyone who has access to a logged in device can do it.

Obviously, I'm not well-versed in FB.

So, if someone has Maya's phone (which hasn't been used as far as LE can tell, the person with the phone couldn't change anything without a login)
We have passwords to open our home computers. My husband has mine, etc.
(We keep a file of passwords if anything should happen to both of us.)
So, if Maya is logging into Facebook couldn't LE recognize that?
Hmmmm....the Hacker/Troll is an interesting concept, but everyone would be blocked also, right?

Well, I don't think Larry for sure had access. There were hardly any pics of him on her FB. At one time, I believe she removed him from her FB and maybe blocked him. That's just a thought I had. I wonder if his lawyer would advise him to block the family?

All I know for myself is that her FB changed so much that it lost some of Maya's obvious beautiful spirit, her zest for life, and her deep love for her children. Her FB drew me into this case, made me believe she was not all that irresponsible like LM implied, I started to care about her, and want her back with her children. MOO, now, her FB lacks much of the essence of Maya. Where is she? What happened?

Correct me if I'm wrong. I think FB does offer users a chance to name someone as executor of your FB acct. and if you were to die what you want them to do with your acct. Maybe Maya had named a family member and shared her password?

But, also, isn't it true that anyone can get on any computer system with the right password and get into her acct.? Passwords can be easy to figure out sometimes, or they're shared, or they're written down.

Maya's family saying that LM blocked them, keeps this case in the news. The family worries this case will go cold. I don't know. I hesitate, not wanting to speculate further, or offend people in Maya's life by speculating it's them.

In missing person's cases, the vast majority of the public are concerned and do everything they can to help. Unfortunately, there is a very small percentage that do warped and destructive things like hack accounts, etc. That is a possibility here, for sure. I wouldn't focus too much attention on the FB account, it's more of a distraction than anything IMO.

Actually, you hit on something I didn't consider... her phone is missing and maybe someone has her phone.

Sometimes your phone, kindle, computer gives you the choice to stay logged in all the time to a site. If that was the case, her phone stayed logged into FB, then some one could've changed her FB acct. without having to log back in because it was already logged in.

Just heard on local news that the FBI has offered to help in the Maya Millete search. Good news...IMO...MOO

It was the local CBS news...nothing on website yet. Edited to add.

The FBI has offered to help by offering it's tools and support in the case of the missing Maya Millete. News8 Live just reported it, but the article isn't up yet.

ETA: you are right!
I’m just in a mood over a perp throwing away this beautiful person.
I’m holding onto hope & justice.

Laci and Conner were put way out in the big Pacific Ocean.
Personally it proves to me that a random kidnapper/ fellow bad guy wine taster/ would not go to such lengths to hide a body.
JMO
“ Hope tomorrow” is the day. Then the justice.

Explanation of FBI support/involvement starts on page 54. Overall, this is an exceptional Missing Persons reference guide.

".....The investigative technical abilities of the FBI can be an invaluable resource. Availability of these services is through the agent responsible for the case. Some of the technical abilities available through the FBI include:

•  Pen register trap and trace
  
  
•  Title III wiretaps
  
  
•  Cellular telephone tracking
  
  
•  Pole cameras
  
  
•  Evidence Response Team/Computer Analysis Response Team
  
  
•  Behavioral Analysis Unit
  
  
•  Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (VICAP)
  
  
•  NCIC off-line searches
  
  The FBI has representatives all over the world who have working relationships with most law enforcement agencies.
  
  The local FBI office has agents that are anxious to help with cases involving the welfare of a child. Investigative assistance, along with major case management, is available.
  
  The FBI has agents in, or within exigent reach of any place in the United States. Leads that are issued by your local FBI office to other FBI offices are the most expeditious way to cover leads out of state.
  
  The FBI maintains information on cases and subjects nationally. Beside the access to NCIC and NLETS, the FBI may have additional information from other sources. With the high degree of immigration, and the greater amount of information being acquired and maintained, the FBI itself can serve as another resource of information...."
