Recent incidents in the affluent neighborhood of Encino, Los Angeles have shed light on a series of violent break-ins, culminating in the tragic murder of “American Idol” executive Robin Kaye and her husband in a suspected home invasion.

Known for its celebrity residents such as Nick Jonas and Dave Grohl, Encino experienced a sharp 40% increase in home burglaries during late July and August last year, with at least eight reported break-ins occurring within a few weeks.

In these break-ins, masked burglars would forcibly enter homes by smashing windows and glass doors, often terrifying families and children who were present inside, as reported by NBC 4 Los Angeles.

In response to the crime wave, police had to increase patrols with helicopters to curtail the surge in criminal activities.

Tragically, a similar modus operandi was observed in the invasion at Kaye’s $4.5 million mansion, where an intruder broke in through a window and proceeded to fatally shoot the 70-year-old executive and her husband, Thomas Deluca, upon their return to the residence.

The couple’s bodies were discovered with gunshot wounds on Monday, several days after they were last heard from, with the break-in and murders believed to have occurred on a preceding Thursday.

A suspect, 22-year-old Raymond Boodarian, was apprehended on Tuesday, with authorities asserting that he had no prior ties to the victims and that the incident appeared to be an isolated event unrelated to organized crime.

Prior to the tragedy, Kaye and Deluca had reportedly expressed concerns to a private security firm about suspicious individuals in their vicinity, indicating a sense of unease and potential threats lurking in their neighborhood.

Despite their concerns, Kaye and Deluca did not proceed with hiring the security services of Kris Herzog, owner of Bodyguard Group of Beverly Hills.

Neighbors recall witnessing suspicious activities, with one individual reported to have hopped the couple’s fence, prompting a call to law enforcement.

Law enforcement responded to the call but found no evidence of forced entry or disturbance at the property.

Kaye, a renowned music supervisor with a decorated career at “American Idol,” and her husband, a musician, tragically fell victim to the heinous crime.

The spate of break-ins in Encino last summer bore resemblance to a strategy commonly employed by local criminal groups, where neighborhoods are targeted for a period before shifting focus to a new area, according to police reports.
