"Gordon Abas Goodarzi, 66, of Rolling Hills, was arrested Friday on suspicion of murder in the death of his longtime wife and business partner Aryan Papoli, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Office. The sheriff's office did not share details into how Goodarzi was linked to Papoli's death or a possible motive, but said Papoli's autopsy ruled her death a homicide and an "extensive and persistent investigation into the circumstances" led detectives to Goodarzi as a suspect."
"Papoli, 58, of Newport Beach, was found dead Nov. 18 about 75 feet down a steep embankment near Highway 138 and Crestline Road, in the mountain town of Crestline, officials reported. Her body wasn't immediately identified, but days after the body was found, Newport Beach Police confirmed a missing person's report was filed for Papoli. The body was confirmed to be Papoli on Dec. 1."
Aryan Papoli, 58, was discovered Nov. 18 about 75 feet down a steep embankment near Highway 138 and Crestline Road in Crestline; her body was identified Dec. 1 after an initial unidentified recovery and a missing-person report filed by Newport Beach Police. San Bernardino County detectives concluded the autopsy ruled the death a homicide and arrested estranged husband and business partner Gordon Abas Goodarzi, 66, of Rolling Hills, on suspicion of murder; Goodarzi is being held without bail. Papoli emigrated from Tehran, Iran, co-founded a clean energy company with her spouse, and moved to Newport Beach six months earlier for retirement; her son Navid called her a "ray of light" who always gave 150%.
