BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) -- A man accused of stabbing his aunt to death in a home on Haley Street in December was in court Tuesday. His preliminary hearing was postponed until April, and that will be the first public airing of a grisly tale of abuse and violence. The murder weapon was a serrat ed construction knife and 28-year-old Christopher Kaulaity said he held it quote "butcher style." He compared himself to Norman Bates, the killer in the 1960 movie "Psycho." Court documents described the interview between sheriff's detectives and Kaulaity. It took place Dec. 7th, at a house on Haley Street. Kaulaity felt disrespected by his aunt, 45-year-old Maria Carmen Torrez who insulted him and tried kicking him out of the house. Kaulaity, who in the interview claims to be a homosexual, alleges she called him homophobic slurs. He describes his troubled life in the interview, saying he started watching porn at a young age, even becoming addicted to it. He attributed that to becoming a prostitute later in his life. He has a prior prostitution case from 2015 which was dismissed. In the documents, Kaulaity expressed a history of self harm, suicidal and homicidal tendencies, that he attributes to feeling unwanted and unloved in his life. During the interview, he described that fateful December day. He was going to feed his dog and Torrez used profanity and a homosexual slur, telling him to leave the house. Man says he stabbed his aunt to death after being ‘triggered’ by verbal abuse: court docs Instead, he went to his room and grabbed pepper spray and what he described to be a serrated construction blade, with a red and black handle. While Torrez was in the bathroom, Kaulaity kicked down the door, pepper sprayed her, putting her in a headlock and stabbed her around the neck area; in his words around seven times. In the interview, he said he went to town on Torrez...something that reminded him of when he played with PlayDoh as a child; he would make human figures and stab them with sticks. The documents allege Kaulaity found killing his aunt to be the right thing to do in order to protect other family members from the abuse. He also accepted his fate, the documents allege, saying there is no need to apologize to the family. ...read more read less
