Robin Kaye, 70, female, White/Caucasian, was found shot to death in her Encino, California home after a welfare check on July 14, 2025. Investigators later determined the killings had occurred days earlier, on July 10, inside the couple’s residence, where police discovered both victims with multiple gunshot wounds and pronounced them dead at the scene. Formal records list the manner of death as homicide and the cause as multiple gunshot wounds.
Police were called to the property when friends grew concerned after not hearing from Robin Kaye, 70, for several days. Officers entered the Encino house and located Robin Kaye, 70, and her husband, both 70, in separate rooms with fatal injuries. Early reporting detailed that the two were found during that July 14 welfare check, consistent with a timeline in which the couple had been attacked on July 10 and left inside the home until authorities arrived.
Detectives swiftly focused on a single suspect. The Los Angeles Police Department announced the arrest of 22-year-old Raymond Boodarian in connection with the double homicide of Robin Kaye, 70. Prosecutors later charged him with two counts of murder, alleging that he entered the home while the couple was away, was confronted after they returned, and during a violent struggle shot them multiple times. Officials further alleged that the firearm used belonged to the couple and that after the shootings the suspect called 911 and identified himself.
Authorities described the case as an apparent burglary turned deadly, with the working theory that the intruder got inside the Encino property before Robin Kaye, 70, and her husband arrived home. In subsequent briefings and coverage, police and prosecutors have maintained that evidence supports this timeline, while emphasizing that the investigation remains active as the case moves through court. The victims’ deaths were widely mourned in Los Angeles and beyond, with attention to the sudden, violent nature of the crime and the rapid arrest and charging of a suspect in the killing of Robin Kaye, 70.
