MIAMI (from www.CBS4.com) ― The murder of a model in South Florida, seen on airwaves across the nation on America’s Most Wanted, is getting a boost in reward money.
Club Space, the night club where 26-year-old Paula Sladewski was last seen, is offering $15,000 as part of the reward to catch her killer.
There are very little clues in the death of the pretty young woman. She was last seen leaving Club Space at 7:30 am on January 3rd. Her body was found burning in a dumpster that same day in North Miami. The surveillance video shows her leaving with a man.
Kevin Klym, Sladewski’s boyfriend who was kicked out of the club for arguing with her, has been in town passing out flyers and looking for tips. He believes the man in the suspect sketch may be the club bouncer who threw him out after the couple got into a fight.
Klym’s private investigator went on to say the staff at Club Space has changed, but the club’s owner and a spokesman denied those allegations.
“That is flat out inaccurate and it’s a reckless accusation,” said spokesman Jeff Garcia. Owner Luis Puig said, “He’s welcome to come out and try to identify one of our employees, they’re on payroll and they are on camera. They’re actually on camera escorting him out for physically abusing his girlfriend.”
Investigators say Klym is still a person of interest.
