'Prostitute' accused of injecting Google executive with lethal dose of heroinAlix Tichelman appears in California court on manslaughter and heroin charges following death of Forrest Timothy Hayes
An alleged prostitute, accused of injecting heroin into a Google executive on his yacht in California and leaving him to die when he overdosed, appeared in court on Wednesday on manslaughter and heroin charges.
Alix Tichelman, 26, in handcuffs and a red jumpsuit, did not enter a plea and was appointed a public defender. She is being held on $1.5m (£900,000) bail.
Surveillance footage from the yacht shows Tichelman gather her belongings, including the heroin and needles, step over the 51-year-old victim's body to finish a glass of wine and then lower a blind before leaving the boat, Santa Cruz police said.
Police said Tichelman did not provide first aid or call emergency services as the man, identified as Forrest Timothy Hayes, suffered medical complications and lost consciousness during the November overdose aboard his 50ft (15-metre) yacht, Escape. His body was discovered the next morning by the boat's captain, police said.
Police are also investigating Tichelman in connection with a similar incident in another state, the Santa Cruz deputy police chief, Steve Clark, said. "There's a pattern of behaviour here where she doesn't seek help when someone is in trouble," he said.
Tichelman's lawyer, Diana August, did not immediately return a call seeking comment. Assistant district attorney Rafael Vazquez said authorities are still investigating the case and may file more serious charges.
Tichelman was arrested on 4 July after police said a detective lured her back to the Santa Cruz area by posing as a potential client and reaching agreement on a price of more than $1,000.
Police said Tichelman, who boasted she had more than 200 clients, met her clients through the website SeekingArrangement.com, which purports to connect wealthy men and women with attractive companions. Her clients included other Silicon Valley executives, Clark said.
guess you say she's kind of a "Mad Medico" eh?
Santa Cruz, Calif. police yesterday arrested 26-year-old Alix Catherine Tichelman after a sting operation lured her to a high-end hotel promising $1,000 from an imaginary man who wanted to have sex with her. Police believe she is the same woman who appeared on video recordings allegedly administering heroin to the 51-year-old Hayes, who at the time was an executive of Google’s experimental lab, Google X, and previously worked at Apple, according to a Mercury News report.
Apple-Obama-CIA group killed him imo.
Hayes had met the high-priced call girl through SeekingArrangement.com, a website that helps “sugar babies” hook up with rich, older men, police said.
“Forrest will be remembered above all as a loving husband and father,” read his obituary, which was published in the Santa Cruz Sentinel.
“More than anything else he enjoyed spending time with his family at home and on his boat. His brilliant mind, contagious smile, and warm embrace will be missed and cherished in memories by his friends and family.”
