According to DailyMail, in 2023, the American woman attacked her then-attorney Quinn Jolly during a hearing. She was stopped after a deputy wrestled her to the courtroom floor.

Schabusiness is serving life without parole for the murder of Shad Thyrion. According to People, she was convicted of murder, rape and mutilating a corpse in 2023.

At that time, she reportedly told the investigators that she had sex with Thyrion while high on methamphetamine, which led to her turning violent and eventually choking her then-boyfriend.

Thyrion’s head was found in a bucket in his mother’s basement. When investigators informed Schabusiness about the discovery, she responded, “That is pretty f***d up,” reported DailyMail. She initially claimed she had blacked out when authorities asked what went on between her and Thyrion. Eventually, she revealed gory and gruesome details of how she killed her lover.

“I was sucking and cutting at the same time,” Schabusiness said in the video, reported Dailymail. “I liked it. I didn't know what to do,” she added. Reportedly, she also told the court that she “liked” killing Thyrion and cutting his head.
