In the world of high-end hairstyling, Fabio Sementilli was a rock star.
A gregarious father of three, the former Toronto resident was found murdered by his wife, Monica, and one of his daughters outside his home in a Los Angeles-area gated community.
•Cops say Sementilli was beaten and stabbed in the neck and torso.

•His 2008 black Porsche Carrera was missing
•Detectives say there are no suspects but they’re searching for two men.
Born in Italy, Sementilli, 49, grew up in Toronto and maintained close ties to the city.
Joey DeVilla, who went to school with Sementilli in the 1980s at De La Salle College in the Avenue Rd.-St. Clair Ave. area, told the Toronto Sun his friend ditched school in Grade 12 to become a styling superstar.

Detectives did not immediately provide a possible motive, but friends and family said 49-year-old Sementilli walked in on a home invasion in the upscale Woodland Hills neighbourhood.

“I don’t doubt for a second in my mind that he wouldn’t have let these people invade his home without defending his honour, defending his family,” said his 24-year-old son.

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. — Just days after accepting a lifetime achievement award on behalf of her late husband, the widow of renowned hairdresser Fabio Sementilli was arrested for murder, reports CBS Los Angeles.

"Fabio Sementilli was directly targeted in this case," Hayes said. "Monica Sementilli and Robert Baker were involved in an intimate relationship for a year and half."
Monica Sementilli and Baker were charged Friday with capital murder with a special circumstance of murder for financial gain, making them eligible for the death penalty. They are being held without bail.
Police say a third person was involved in the plot, but they still don’t know who that person is, and that they remain at large.

DNA gathered at the crime scene and in the vehicle matched Baker’s, Hayes said. Additional DNA collected at the scene belonged to an unknown person who could not be found in state and national databases, Hayes said.

Baker's DNA was in the system because he was previously convicted in 1993 of lewd and lascivious conduct with a minor and is a registered sex offender, according to Hayes.
