Paula Sladewski — Biography

In the year 2003, Paula Sladewski was among a vast number of women vying for the title of ‘Playboy’s Ultimate Playmate’ as part of the magazine's 50th anniversary celebration. Although she ultimately wasn't selected for the coveted role, Sladewski did manage to secure a spot within the top fifty contestants. Her disappearance was reported by her then-partner, Kevin Klym, on January 3, 2010. The couple had traveled to Miami from their California residence to attend a Lady Gaga concert at the Fontainebleau. Their visit was marred by an altercation at Club Space in Miami. Following the dispute, Klym was reportedly escorted out by club security, while Sladewski remained inside. She vanished thereafter, prompting an investigation. Tragically, Sladewski’s burned remains were discovered later that same day in a dumpster in North Miami. Firefighters responded to a report of a fire in the bin, alerted by a resident. The extensive burns necessitated identification through dental records, which were matched on Wednesday, January 6, confirming the remains to be those of Paula Sladewski.
