Boodarian allegedly scaled a fence and broke into the property via a sliding door that was unlocked.
He was inside the property before Kaye and Deluca returned 30 minutes later.
Kaye and Deluca were shot several times and Boodarian fled the scene on foot.
Cops smashed a window to get into the home and they found blood spatters on the porch.

An incident was reported on July 10, prompting officers to be dispatched at around 4pm.
Cops couldn't get into the home because the gate was closed.
Police flew a helicopter over the home but didn't see anything suspicious.
Cops left the area shortly after 4:17pm.
'RANDOM' ATTACK
Guy Golan, a Los Angeles Police Department lieutenant, said the shootings appear to be random.
'As scary as it sounds, it does appear to be a random attack,' he told KCAL.
Tributes were paid to Kaye, a veteran American Idol supervisor, after she was named as one of the victims.
Didi Benami, an ex-contestant, said she was left heartbroken.
Benami finished in tenth place on the ninth season of American Idol.
'Still in disbelief and trying to make sense of it all,' she wrote on
'Some souls leave a light behind even after they're gone. Robin, you are so loved. Always will be.
'Honoring the light, kindness, and joy you brought into this world. May your memory—and the love you gave—never be forgotten.'
