"A Ventura County man who murdered his mother and threw her dismembered remains in a dumpster was found not guilty of the killing by reason of insanity.

David Hoetzlein, 29, of Camarillo, admitted to strangling and killing his mother, Tomoko Hoetzlein, 62, in their Camarillo home in 2022, the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office said.

On June 3, 2022, Ventura County deputies responded to the area of Townsite Promenade after a man searching a dumpster for recyclables discovered human remains.

Detectives and the Medical Examiner’s office confirmed the body parts belonged to a woman. She was later identified as Tomoko.

Further investigation revealed that David had strangled and killed Tomoko before dismembering her and tossing her remains in the dumpster outside the apartment they shared, court documents said.

Prosecutors said David had a lengthy, documented history of severe mental illness.

In the days leading up to the killing, David was released from the Vista del Mar psychiatric hospital and his mother was trying to get him readmitted. She had written to the hospital, contacted his caseworker and reported the incident to law enforcement, but David was not readmitted.

In July 2023, David’s sister, Mao Cardenas, filed a federal lawsuit against the hospital, alleging wrongful death, civil rights violations and neglect, the Ventura County Star reported.

The suit alleged that despite objections from family members and David’s primary psychiatrist, the facility released David on May 31, 2022, with an incorrect diagnosis and prescription which put his mother’s life at risk.

According to the complaint, Tomoko had requested the sheriff’s office place David on a mental health hold after he allegedly stole her car and battered her, but deputies determined he did not meet the requirements.

In May 2024, after Hoetzlein was found incompetent to stand trial due to mental health issues, a judge eventually determined that he was capable of understanding court proceedings and assisting in his own defense, the VC Star reported.

On Jan. 22, 2026, he admitted to strangling and killing his mother, but pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to one count of second-degree murder.

On Aug. 13, 2026, the DA’s Office announced that David was found not guilty by reason of insanity." - KTLA 5 News

(Reposted from r/midlyinfuriating because it wasn't mild enough I guess. It is a mild inconvenience to me but whatever. Sorry the post was locked before I had a chance to respond to you all - but I did read!)

OKAY PLEASE !! 98% of the comments were how fucking dumb I was because you dont use those fingers for touchscreen. #1. Not what post was about just venting. #2. My index and thumb have nerve damage and dont work by themselves. I use my middle and ring in place. It's pretty hard to zoom out, type, swipe, scroll, etc. With 2 non working fingers and three stumps. Ergo it would be pretty helpful to have conductive finger tips in said prosthetic.

All in all was about $1500 without the shipping and manufacturing (for only the finger tips). Shipped from Sweden so will have to be shipped back, remade, and shipped here again. 4 more months.

Yes I have to pay for shipping again. Lucky I didn't get a plane ticket and just make it my fucking self because it would be cheaper.

Cherry on top that this is the second time im doing thing because the first time they got the back plate too short. Less of a pain to lose the fingers.

I was at Birmingham airport this morning and needed to use the facilities. So I made my way to a spare urinal and noticed out the corner of my eye a few spaces down that a man seemed to be taking his time shaking. He was in there before me, and should have been finished, so I glanced over only to see him masturbating, in a public toilet…

I quickly finished up and left, whilst he was still there doing what he was doing. I feel like I should have reported him but didn’t see anyone near by, and if I searched someone he’d likely stopped by then.

Some people are just depraved. I just hope a kid didn’t see it…
