Robin Kaye, the longtime music supervisor for\u00a0<em>American Idol<\/em>, and her husband Thomas Deluca were found shot dead in their Encino home during an LAPD welfare check. Authorities are investigating the case as a possible double homicide, but no arrests have been made yet.<\/p>\n<p>Concerned relatives requested the wellness check after not hearing from the couple for several days. Police discovered signs of distress at the door and entered by breaking a window. Both Robin and Thomas appeared to have been shot and were found unconscious. The case is being treated as targeted rather than random, though motives remain unknown.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\"><\/div>\n<p>Neighbors reported a possible break-in attempt at the same house just days earlier, involving a suspicious person jumping the fence, but no suspects were caught. Investigators are exploring if this incident is connected to the deaths.<\/p>\n<p>Robin Kaye was highly respected in the television industry, known for shaping the musical direction of\u00a0<em>American Idol<\/em>\u00a0for over 15 seasons and winning multiple Guild of Music Supervisors Awards. She also worked on shows like\u00a0<em>Lip Sync Battle<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Her colleagues and fans mourn her passing, praising her talent, compassion, and influence. The investigation is ongoing, and police have asked the public to share any information related to suspicious activity near the home.<\/p>\n<p>The home showed no signs of robbery, suggesting the attack might have been personal.
