Theobald "Theo" Lengyel, a former member of the 1980's avant-garde band Mr. Bungle, was apprehended and charged in connection with the murder of his absent girlfriend on Tuesday, subsequent to law enforcement's discovery of human remains in local woods. Lengyel, a sax, clarinet, and keyboard player, was considered a person of interest after he rebuffed the police's attempts to question him on the location of his girlfriend, Alice “Alyx” Kamakaokalani Herrmann, aged 61. Authorities reported early suspicions of "foul play" in Herrmann's case, with her vanishing reported on December 12 even though her last sighting was ten days prior. The Capitola Police Department, in a public statement, mentioned that "Investigation led to the uncovering of human remains in a forest in Tilden Regional Park in Berkeley" while waiting for DNA confirmation of the remains' identity from the Contra County Coroner’s Office. How and where Herrmann was murdered were details not released by the police. Lengyel, also known under the moniker “Mylo Stone”, was under scrutiny following reports of Herrmann's disappearance by her family. He reportedly undertook several trips between his El Cerrito residence and Portland, Oregon, covering over 600 miles. Police discovered Herrmann's vehicle outside Lengyel's home, a mere five miles from Berkeley, during his absence. A possible motive behind the alleged murder was not shared by the investigating authorities. Lengyel has currently been incarcerated in the Santa Cruz County Jail, with bail denied, on first-degree murder charges, according to records. Charges of felony burglary and auto theft have also been leveled against him. Lengyel, known for his association with the Bay Area rock group Mr. Bungle, founded by singer Mike Patton, guitarist Trey Spruance, and bassist Trevor Dunn in 1985, had severed ties with the band in the mid-90s on acrimonious terms. Dunn mentioned in a statement in 2005 that Lengyel's departure was unanimous due to his lack of growth and contribution to the band, leading to a falling out.
