Rock Star's Shocking Fall: Former Musician Arrested For First Degree Murder Of Girlfriend

The former rock musician, Theobald "Theo" Lengyel, 54, has been apprehended and charged with first-degree murder in connection with the suspected killing of his girlfriend, Alice "Alyx" Kamakaokalani Herrmann, 61.

The charges followed the discovery of human remains in a forested region in California, NBC News reported.

Herrmann had been missing since December 3, and her family reported her disappearance to the El Cerrito Police Department on December 12. The investigation was subsequently taken over by the Capitola Police Department, who swiftly identified Lengyel as a primary suspect.

In a statement released by the authorities, they noted, "Based on his actions, Theo Lengyel is a person of interest in Alice Hermann’s disappearance and has not cooperated with the police investigation." They further revealed that Lengyel had traveled from El Cerrito, CA to Portland, OR in the days following Herrmann's disappearance.
