Authorities believe that Larissa Macriello's disappearance had everything to do with her boyfriend, John Paul Garcia, a married bail bond employee with a criminal record that included one previous murder from 1991 and a drug trafficking conviction. Cell phone records show that she last visited John Paul Garcia's home. For a while, the case dragged on until police could find more evidence to link Garcia to the murder.

Miami detectives had everything they needed when bank records also showed that on the day Larissa Macriello went missing, John Paul Garcia stole $40,000 out of her account, and he was captured on video driving Larissa Macriello's car. A forensic examination of her car showed blood in the back. Police investigators believe that he used her car to transport her dead body. With this information and more, John Paul Garcia was arrested and charged with her death.
Bail Bondsman Employee's Wife Didn't Know
John Paul Garcia was a husband leading a double life, which included lying to his wife. For years, Annalie Rivero knew something was wrong in their marriage, but she never could have imagined that her husband would be implicated in the murder of his mistress. In fact, she had no idea that her husband was having an affair with Larissa Macriello. Her tearful confrontation with her husband was captured on video. According to Sacbee, the wife can be seen as she tearfully asks her husband for explanations while he vehemently denies having any part in her disappearance or murder.
