Gary Triano obituary

On November 1, 1996, Gary Triano was killed when a pipe bomb exploded in his car at the La Paloma Country Club in Catalina Foothills, Arizona.

Within weeks, the investigation centered around his ex-wife Pamela Phillips, who was still living in Aspen.

It was discovered that she had taken out a $2 million life insurance policy on Triano shortly before his death and the couple’s two children were the beneficiaries of the policy, which was paid out to Phillips in 1997.

Evidence also linked Phillips to Ronald Young, a small-time criminal with whom Phillips developed a relationship while in Aspen.

Shortly before the bombing, a van rented by Young was found abandoned in Yorba Linda, California, and inside the vehicle there were documents pertaining to Phillips and Triano’s divorce, a map of Tucson, Arizona, and a sawed-off shotgun.

Phillips was convicted of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder and was sentenced to life in prison. Phillips, who is now incarcerated at the Arizona State Prison Complex – Perryville, claims that Triano’s death was a mob revenge killing.

Ronald Young, who was hired by Phillips as a hit man, also was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.
