Larissa Macriello was murdered by John Paul Garcia sometime in the first week of June, 2013. He supposidly met her online. He was married to Annalee Rivero (who knew nothing of the affair at the time) and they (John paul Garcia and Annalee Riviero) lived in North Miami. John Paul Garcia (DOB 10-08-1968) was a long time career felon who never stayed out of trouble (or jail) for very long. He was arrested for murder in 1993, but the case was dropped for lack of evidence, then several domestic and drug charges up to trafficing cocaine which landed him seven years in prison from 1996 - 2003. In October, 2014 he was arrested for Larissa's murder after several pieces of evidence were found against him including the pinging of his cell phone that was with hers for days after her disappearance, John Paul Garcia seen driving her car days after her dissapearance, a taxi driver testifying that John Paul Garcia was picked up a short distance from Larissa's apartment the day the vehicle re-appeared in her driveway, a forged check he tried to cash in her name into his bank account, and an online transfer from her account for $40,000.00 to his personal checking account where he spent the money in a shopping spree for weeks after her disappearance. Even the outline of a claw hammer lifted with luminol was found in Larissa's automoblie once it was recovered from Larissa's vehicle (most likely the murder weapon used to kill her).

Let me add that this killer had documented support over the years that enabled him to carry out these crimes against the public which included two murders (that police know of) in a 30 year span. The support came from his family. They paid money to lawyer him up, let him live in their homes, gave him money when he refused to work, lied for him to investigators, attempted to intimidate witnesses and victims, and passified his criminal behavior. Any of these people that protect a known criminal is by virtue and by law guilty of comitting the crime as if they had done it thermselves. These people were his sister (Betty Lynn Gazzola), his brother (Joaquin "Jack" Garcia), his mother (Beatriz Soto Garcia) and his own oldest daughter (Michelle Beatriz Garcia). Michelle Garcia even went as far as writing a letter in favor of his character to the judge during the murder trial of Larissa Macriello. Which interesting enough, during the research of the case file, John Paul Garcia the year before Macriello's murder, he was arrested for child felony battery on Michelle Garcia when she was still a minor (she even writes a message in the You Tube video -at the link above questioning police in the arrest and interview of her father in spite of the battery she endured from him a year before).
John Paul Garcia was convicted of Larissa Macriello's murder in November, 2015. Larissa's body was never found. John Paul Garcia has never revealed where her body lies and has never shown an ounce of remorse for the murder or the pain and loss he has brought to Larissa's family. John Paul Garcia is now serving life in prison at the Taylor Correctional Instututional Annex in Perry, Florida (his DC number is: 437941).
By all accounts, Larissa Macriello was a good woman. She was happy, trusting, and loving. She traveled often and was devoated to her family. It appears she had loaned John Paul Garcia money in the past before her disappearance and did not know about his criminal behavior or how dangerous he really was.
The Garcia family is still doing well in Miami, Florida. Enjoying their lives, laughing, living, taking vacations, with no regard to the evil monster they helped create, enable, and defend. No remorse or effort of apology was ever made by them to Larissa's family. Make sure they are not forgotten nor is Larissa Macriello ever to be forgotten. Every public awareness should be made to whom John Paul Garcia is and who the Garcia family is so that every person, employer, and background investigator will know how these people are connected. Please feel free to read the following case numbers (Metro-Dade County):
F12015189 (about the battery and no contact orders on Michelle Beatriz Garcia and her sister, Roxanne Alanis Garcia - John Paul Garcia's biological children)

Bravo to the brave and persistent investigators of the Metro-Dade police and Dade County State Attorney's Office for seeing this case through to a successful conviction.
Let us not forget Larissa Macriello and her family who found some justice, but will never find peace.
