True Crime
The victim was Gary Triano, a Tucson real estate developer with influential friendsβand enemies. After finishing a round of golf at a country club, he went to the parking lot and found a gift in his car: a crudely made pipe-bomb that blew him to pieces. The bomb-maker was Ron Young, a Colorado βbad guyβ wanted on weapons and fraud charges. The prosecution claimed that the woman he was dating at the time promised to pay him $400,000 to murder her ex-husband. Her name was Pamela Phillips, an Aspen socialite, divorcΓ©e, and mother of Trianoβs two children. She received two million dollars upon his death but evaded suspicion for more than a decade. Finally, halfway across the globe in Austria, authorities caught up with the blonde bombshellβigniting one of the most explosive cases in Arizona history.
