Ugly Duckling: A True Life Story of Beauty, Manipulation and Murder
This is a true-life story of beauty, manipulation and murder.
Gary Triano, of Tucson, was violently killed on his birthday, Nov 1, 1996, when a
pipe bomb exploded inside his rented Lincoln town car. His body was blown to
pieces by this remotely detonated bomb.
Former Aspenite, Pamela Phillips Triano, is accused of paying Ronald
Young, one of her lovers, to execute her ex-husband. Ronald Young was
captured, tried and found guilty of first-degree murder in 2009.
Featured on America’s Most Wanted and Dateline NBC, Pamela continued to evade
imprisonment.
This tale of international intrigue took a twist when Pamela was
apprehended in Vienna by Interpol on an unrelated criminal offense in
Lichtenstein. During her booking, Interpol discovered that her
name was red flagged by the FBI. She was ultimately extradited to the Pima
County Jail in Tucson, Arizona on July 3, 2010.
With this written account, Royal Phillips, aunt of Pamela Phillips Triano is
telling all. Royal was a former columnist for the Montecito Journal and has
been writing since 1948. Documented through diaries, correspondence,
and family photographs, Royal reveals a truthful portion of their wealthy, eccentric
family who stimulated Pam’s hungers.
