Kubiak told police that he and Herleen Dulai had taken psychedelic mushrooms together at his home on the 8400 block of Blackstone Ridge Court. Kubiak called police about 10 a.m. July 16 to report that the woman was unconscious, and when police arrived she was “obviously deceased,” according to his arrest report.

During his sentencing hearing Friday, Kubiak said Herleen Dulai, whom he started a business with during the short three months they knew each other, had attacked him while they were on drugs. He said he “blacked out” and didn’t remember attacking her. When Kubiak was arrested, he had suffered injuries to his eyes that required surgery, his defense attorney said.

“I have never hit a woman in my life, and I certainly never wanted to hurt Herleen,” Kubiak said.

Dulai died of blunt force trauma and strangulation, and her death was ruled a homicide, according to the Clark County coroner’s office.

Prosecutor Giancarlo Pesci detailed some of the injuries Dulai suffered. He said there were injuries to her face, eye and shoulders, along with defensive injuries to her forearms. A chipped piece of her tooth was found in her stomach.
