The search for a GCC math adjunct teacher came to a heart-wrenching end on April 9 when police found the skeletal remains of Yuliya Kumirova in a desert west of Scottsdale.

Yuliya, whose name was pronounced like Julia but with a soft J, was abducted the evening of Oct. 31, at LA Fitness on 55th Avenue and Bell Road. The man suspected of kidnapping and murdering Kumirova from the gym parking lot was found dead Nov. 2 from a pill overdose.

The night Kumirova’s remains were discovered, a Phoenix police officer was on duty at Pinnacle Peak Road. He found the skull first and the rest of the remains lying face down. Forensic odontologist John Piakis used dental and skull x-rays to further determine the identification of the skeleton.
Glendale police have made no connections between Kumirova and her murderer other than both having memberships at L.A. Fitness.
