Wisconsin woman accused of decapitating lover randomly attacks own lawyer in court
2023-02-15
[NYPOST] Taylor Schabusiness, 25, lunged at defense attorney Quinn Jolly after the judge in the gruesome murder case suggested pushing the trial back two months.

Shocking video of the spontaneous and violent mostly peaceful outburst shows Schabusiness calmly sitting in the Green Bay courtroom as Judge Thomas J. Walsh recommends starting the murder trial on May 15 instead of March 6 — a suggestion he made at Jolly’s request.

Seemingly angered by the decision, the accused killer flings herself at the attorney, who was sitting beside her — striking him with her elbows and handcuffed wrists.

A security guard then quickly tackles Schabusiness to the ground, the chaotic clip shows.

At one point, the guard’s toolbelt becomes wrapped around Schabusiness’ toes, which were exposed after she lost her shoes in the tussle.

After several minutes, two other guards eventually help pin Schabusiness down until she is calm.

The bizarre blowup came after Jolly asked Walsh for an extension in order to prove his client was not competent to stand trail for the February 2022 grisly murder of 25-year-old Shad Thyrion, Law and Crime reported.

Schabusiness allegedly decapitated Thyrion during sex, continued to perform sexual acts on his lifeless body and mutilated his corpse with a serrated bread knife.

She then stuffed his severed head and penis in a bucket and other body parts in a crock pot, leaving them for his mother to find, prosecutors claim.

The woman — who is married to another man — was found by police at home covered in blood, records show.

She reportedly told cops they would "have fun trying to find all of the organs."

Schabusiness plead not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect but reportedly admitted to cops that she went "crazy" during the deadly romp.

She told detectives she and Thyrion had been smoking methamphetamine before going to his mother’s house to have sex using chains.

She also said she didn’t intend on killing him, though reportedly admitted she sat on the victim and "waited for him to die" as he coughed up blood.

"Ya, I liked it," Schabusiness said about choking Thyrion.

Jolly had told the judge he needed more time for a defense expert to review the case and testify as to his client’s competency.

A court-appointed doctor found Schabusiness competent to stand trial last year, but the defense attorney pushed back against the diagnosis.

Jolly said Schabusiness was previously diagnosed with bipolar disorder and has received mental health treatment since she was a 7th grader.

Schabusiness faces charges of first-degree intentional homicide, mutilating a corpse and third-degree sexual assault.

#22   Looks like a hit-woman.

Her make-up and carefully shaped eyebrows are very stylish. It’s her attitude and expression that make her look like a sociopatj.

#18  She looks sorta chunky in that orange jumpsuit. Jail food will do that to you. At fighting weight I bet she was professional scary.

#17  That's a very flattering picture of her. That was probably before her crystal meth addiction. She looks 'Beat-Up Florida' in her courtroom pics.

#14  ...she and her hubby.

Warren Schabusiness is Tylor Schabusiness’s husband. He was in charge at the time of the murder of Shad Rock Thyrion and is currently incarcerated in Wisconsin. The two also have a recently born child, as the reports say. - cite

I either want to have a beer with that man or never be in the same state with him.

#8  If a dog mauled and killed a child, we wouldn't worry about whether it was 'sane' or 'sick'. Judge on the crime committed not who/what did it.

... since she was a 7th grader.
Now think of all the Jr. High and High School guys that did her and were lucky enough to live.
