CA - Woman’s Body Found Down Embankment in Crestline; Authorities Seek Help Identifying Her

[charminglane]

Maybe it was an accidental fall. All I need to convince me is to learn that LE found her car in the parking lot and they have some cctv somewhere ---for example, showing her eating breakfast, alive and well, all alone as she drives to the lovely hiking trail.


I am only questioning things because I have not heard anything yet about how she arrived there, and who, if anyone, knew she was driving 2 hours to go on a solo hike.


The other thing that niggles at me----Newport Beach is one of the most beautiful areas in Southern California. If she wanted to take a beautiful hike she could go to Crystal Cove Trail, Pacific Ridge Trailhead, Newport Bay Nature Reserve, etc.

All gorgeous hiking trails minutes away from her home. Why did she drive 2 hours to hike alone in Crestline? What made her go there specifically? Was she meeting someone there?

Because if she just wanted to go on a beautiful outdoor trail, there are a dozen of them very close to her own home. r

More fall colors in the mountains?

More fall colors in the mountains?

YES, that's true. And if we learn she was a big hiker and drove up there that day then it was most likely a terrible accidental fall.

I'm just not there yet.

She own property in Crestline.

In looking at maps where Crestline and hwy 138 meet up, there is a couple of auto repair shops and a tire shop. If a vehicle belonging to her were found there, or a bicycle found in the brush, I can see accident. Other than that, I'm with katydid23. How did she get to the area? That is way farther than a normal person would walk in that terrain. It's like a 2 hour excursion from her property if you are walking and could go as the crow flies (hah!).

Wow, OK, that changes things. Gives her a reason to be there. Maybe it was just a horrible accident?

Yes, it would seem so. In other cases I’ve followed over the years, SBCSO is notoriously silent regarding their investigations. Once Aryan was identified, no other details were released.

I found some interesting information regarding a home in Rolling Hills, CA. Since purchased in 2017, deed on said home listed both names (husband/Aryan). In September 2025, through an interfamily transfer/resale - his name was removed. He was listed as seller, she the owner.

Aryan's address on that document is listed as a residence in Corona Del Mar. She had a real estate license from 2006 to 2018.

Further, I found she owns a parcel in Crestline, off Chateau Drive. She purchased it in a tax sale in 2013. So maybe that's why she was in Crestline. From the location her body was found, to the property she owns is less than five miles.

Great additional information, @Knox .
That connection to property in Crestline does lean me more towards a possible accident.

I am not sure if I posted this earlier.... appears to have been written relatively recently, but before Navid ended up in Boston. He has been a mega-student already in this article.

Though we sense they are not together... they certainly have had a lot of work together... so i remain surprised that we have no heard from the husband.
