Mr. Bungle - Former Member Found Guilty Of First-Degree Murder


According to CBS San Francisco Theobald "Theo" Brooks Lengyel, who played saxophone, keyboards between 1985-1996, is facing life in prison after being found guilty of first-degree murder on Friday, October 11. The 55-year-old musician was accused of killing his girlfriend, 61-year-old Alice "Alyx" Kamakaokalani Herrmann, inside her home in Capitola, California.

From the CBS News content: Lengyel was arrested in January after investigators found Hermann's body in a Berkeley park. She had been reported missing in December. Lengyel's six-week trial took a shocking turn when prosecutors played an audio recording allegedly from Hermann's phone of her begging for her life as Lengyel strangled her to death.

Lengyel is best known as a former member of the Bay Area experimental rock band Mr. Bungle that was founded by singer Mike Patton, guitarist Trey Spruance and bassist Trevor Dunn in Ukiah in 1985. Lengyel played saxophone, clarinet and keyboards in the band for over a decade before leaving the group due to creative differences in 1996.

He's facing life in prison and is scheduled for sentencing next month.

Ugh. That's horrible.

They were one of my most seen bands back in their earlier years. Used to catch them at clubs around the Bay Area all the time.

Glad Theo's been out of the band forever. What a scumbag.
