"A teenager was found guilty of first-degree murder for beating and stomping a man to death outside a church in Oxnard.

The deadly attack occurred on June 4, 2025, when the boy was 14 years old at the time, the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office said.

Surveillance footage of the incident showed the victim, Davy Glen Pichel, 67, was sitting next to his wheelchair near the entrance of St. Anthony’s Catholic Church.

Two juvenile suspects, who were both 14 years old at the time, were seen approaching Pichel before violently beating and stomping him to death, prosecutors said.

They briefly walked away, but came back and took turns repeatedly stomping on the victim. During the attack, authorities believe they removed some of the man’s clothing before fleeing the scene.

The next day, a church volunteer discovered Pichel unresponsive and with significant injuries to his head and face. He was also found partially unclothed.

Oxnard police were called to the scene where Pichel was pronounced dead by paramedics. Two days later, police confirmed the teen suspects were located and arrested.

In January 2026, one teen pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and was sentenced to the maximum base term of seven years in the Secured Youth Treatment Facility.

The second teen, who is now 16 years old, was found guilty of willful, deliberate and premeditated first-degree murder, prosecutors announced on June 26, 2026.

A sentencing hearing is scheduled for July 13 at the Juvenile Justice Center in Oxnard. He faces a maximum base term of seven years in the Secured Youth Treatment Facility. The teens’ identities were not released due to their minor status.

'Under California law, a juvenile who commits murder may be committed to the Secured Youth Treatment Facility for four to seven years,' the DA’s Office said. 'No matter what the sentence, the juvenile court only has jurisdiction over a person until the age of 25 years old.' " - KTLA 5 News

"A Ventura County man was convicted of the yearslong molestation of a young girl.

Jaime Torres, 42, of Santa Paula, was found guilty by a jury on June 24, the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office announced.

The sexual abuse occurred between 2012 and 2018 and involved a young girl who was under 14 years old at the time.

Torres was known to the girl and the continuous molestations occurred at the homes they shared in Oxnard and Santa Paula, prosecutors said.

An investigation was opened after the victim reported the abuse to a trusted family member in 2019.

On June 24, Torres was found guilty of aggravated sexual assault of a child, lewd acts upon a child and continuous sexual abuse.

All aggravating factors were also found true, including that the victim was particularly vulnerable and that he took advantage of a position of trust.

. . .

A sentencing hearing is scheduled for July 27. Torres was remanded into custody following the verdict and faces up to 31 years to life in state prison." - KTLA 5 News
