Tragedy Hits ‘American Idol’: Exec Robin Kaye & Husband Killed; 22-Year-Old Shooter Arrested

Tragedy struck the entertainment world as American Idol music supervisor Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas DeLuca, were found shot dead in their Encino home. The couple, both 70, were discovered during a welfare check by LAPD officers, who found them with fatal gunshot wounds. Kaye, hailed by American Idol as a “cornerstone” of the show since 2009, was also known for her work on Miss USA, Lip Sync Battle, and other major productions. Police have arrested 22-year-old Raymond Boodarian, who they say broke into the home while the couple was away on July 10. Authorities believe he fatally shot the couple after they unexpectedly returned during the burglary. Boodarian fled on foot but was later taken into custody.
