Former Phoenix library worker pleads guilty, is sentenced to 20 years in husband's 2023 murder
Ivanka Koleva was sentenced in mid-June to 20 years in prison for the 2023 murder of her husband in Gilbert. Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell announced on June 16 that Ivanka Koleva, 51 at the time of the crime, pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree murder in the death of her husband, Stefan Koleva, 49. Police discovered Stefan Koleva's body in November 2023 during a welfare check at the couple's home near North Recker and East Guadalupe roads. His body was found decomposing, wrapped in plastic sheeting, and hidden under a bed. The couple's oldest of three children, who had arrived in Arizona for Thanksgiving, was the one who requested the welfare check. Days earlier, Ivanka had asked a friend for help caring for the family's two younger children, falsely claiming that Stefan had left. "This wasn't just a murder — it was a betrayal that shattered a family,' wrote Mitchell in a statement. Stefan Koleva was discovered with mutiple gunshot wounds and a stab wound. The children told police that Ivanka Koleva had been acting strangely in the days before the discovery, and that she asked her children not to go inside the home. Ivanka Koleva was also involved in a car crash in Gilbert several days before her arrest. The crash was believed to be a suicide attempt. Police reviewed security camera footage from a neighbor's home that showed the couple return home, but Stefan Koleva never leaving. Inside the house, police found a bullet casing, a bullet hole in a bedroom door and evidence of a crime scene that someone attempted to clean. Authorities also recovered the murder weapon from a vehicle Ivanka Koleva was driving when she crashed. According to court documents, she had purchased the gun roughly a week before the killing and had undergone firearms training. 'These children came home to see their parents and instead discovered a crime scene. No one should ever have to endure that kind of horror, especially at the hands of their own mother," Mitchell wrote. According to court records, Ivanka Koleva had been a Phoenix employee for five months at the time. Phoenix spokesman Dan Wilson had confirmed Ivanka Koleva was hired in June 2023 as a part-time library circulation attendant. Arizona Republic reporter Jose R. Gonzalez contributed to this article.

Woman was 35+ weeks pregnant with boy when she died on Christmas Eve 2023, affidavit reveals
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A recently obtained affidavit is revealing new details about the death of a pregnant woman and her unborn child – and the people charged in connection with their deaths. Izabel Reed and Nicholas Gregg have both been arrested and charged in connection with the death of Alexandrea Hunter and her unborn child, both of whom died on Christmas Eve 2023 after Hunter overdosed on fentanyl. Woman arrested & charged with murdering pregnant woman, unborn child on Christmas Eve 2023 Reed and Gregg are charged with the first-degree murder of Hunter's unborn child. They also face several other drug-related charges – including selling fentanyl to Hunter, which ultimately led to her death. On Dec. 24, 2023, at 10:25 p.m., the affidavit says officers with the Roeland Park Police Department responded to the QuikTrip at 5055 Roe Boulevard in Johnson County, Kansas. According to the affidavit, an officer arrived at 10:27 p.m. and went to the women's restroom – where he found a woman, unresponsive and lying on the restroom floor. 'Alexandrea was clutching a lighter, a burnt red straw, and a piece of burnt aluminum foil in her right hand,' the affidavit reads. Despite emergency responders' efforts, Hunter was pronounced dead at 11 p.m. While searching the restroom, the affidavit says an officer found a second piece of foil with a small plastic baggie containing a 'rock-like substance.' Officers also found a cell phone that belonged to Hunter. According to a lab report released on Jan. 17, 2024, the rock-like substance was identified as fentanyl and para-fluorofentanyl, which is a fentanyl analog. The substance Hunter was found clutching in her hand was also identified as fentanyl, according to the affidavit. At the time of Hunter's death, Reed and Gregg were already being investigated for allegedly distributing fentanyl in Roeland Park, according to the affidavit. The detective who was already investigating Reed and Gregg then began looking into their possible connection with the death of Hunter and her unborn child. The affidavit says investigators used a confidential informant to purchase drugs from Reed and Gregg on two separate occasions. Lab results confirmed that the drugs bought from them contained fentanyl. Then on Feb. 14, 2024, investigators got a warrant and searched Reed and Gregg's home. During an interview with investigators, the affidavit says Reed admitted that she and Gregg had been selling fentanyl since either late 2022 or early 2023. However, she later denied selling fentanyl in the previous two months – which would include the time of Hunter's overdose death. Second suspect charged in 2023 fentanyl death of mother, unborn baby On March 21, 2024, the affidavit says investigators received Hunter's autopsy report, which confirmed that she died from a fentanyl overdose; her death was ruled as accidental. According to the affidavit, the autopsy report confirmed that Hunter was 35-38 weeks pregnant with a boy at the time of her death. Despite investigators searching Reed and Gregg's home and her admitting to selling fentanyl, they were still working to find evidence linking them to the death of Hunter and her unborn child. On Jan. 23, 2025, investigators checked out Hunter's cell phone and found Facebook messages between her and an account associated with Reed, the affidavit states. Hunter arranged several drug purchases from Reed beginning in early December 2023, according to the messages. The affidavit says the last communication between Hunter and Reed was on Dec. 24, 2023, at 5:35 p.m. – in which Hunter advises Reed that she had arrived and asked if she could come inside, presumably into Reed's home. According to the affidavit, investigators also found a contact in Hunter's phone listed as 'Izzy & Dray;' the phone number was associated with a burner phone that Reed and Gregg shared. Hunter's contact was also found in Reed and Gregg's burner phone, the affidavit states. It included Hunter's photo and a contact name of 'Alexandrea brownstone,' as well as a note of 'ADDICT.' According to the affidavit, investigators also found a plastic baggie at Reed's home that was identical to the baggie found in the QuikTrip restroom where Hunter overdosed.
