The Tragic Murder of “American Idol” Executive and Husband in Los Angeles Mansion
The shocking murder of Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas Deluca, both 70, has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry. The couple was found dead inside their heavily fortified Encino property on Monday, four days after they were killed in a random home invasion.
According to reports, police had responded to a possible burglary at the property on the day of the slayings but did not enter the home as there were no signs of forced entry. It is now believed that the suspect, 22-year-old Raymond Boodarian, may have still been inside the home when officers initially arrived.
Authorities only discovered the bodies of Kaye and Deluca when they returned to conduct a welfare check on Monday. Boodarian, a known drug addict with a criminal history, has been charged with two counts of murder in connection with the case.
Investigators believe that Boodarian was burglarizing the residence while the couple was out and fatally shot them upon their return. The $5 million Encino home, which was last sold in 2023 for approximately $4.5 million, has now become the scene of a tragic crime.
The loss of Robin Kaye, a respected “American Idol” executive, and her husband has left friends, family, and colleagues in mourning. The circumstances surrounding their untimely deaths have raised questions about security and safety in affluent neighborhoods like Encino.
As the investigation into the murders continues, the community is left grappling with the senseless violence that has shattered the lives of two beloved individuals. The legacy of Robin Kaye and Thomas Deluca will be remembered as their loved ones seek justice for their tragic deaths.
