A woman who is accused of dismembering her lover during a "drug-fuelled sex game" attacked her attorney in the courtroom as he defended her. Taylor Schabusiness, 25, was arrested in February 2022 and is charged with first-degree intentional homicide, mutilating a corpse, and third-degree sexual assault in the killing of 25-year-old Shad Thyrion, per the <a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/woman-who-decapitated-lover-drug-29219657" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mirror</a>. Authorities claim that Schabusiness strangled Thyrion and then sexually abused him before decapitating and dismembering him, leaving parts of his body around the home and in a vehicle. The alleged murderer, who is reportedly married, pleaded not guilty to the charges and not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect. Watch the shocking courtroom footage below: [[youtubewidget||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSat-Ir2_gY]] Schabusiness was previously diagnosed with bipolar disorder and has received mental health treatment since she was a 7th grader, as revealed by her attorney. Despite pleading her innocence, authorities claim that during their investigation last year, Schabusiness told them that they were "going to have fun trying to find all of the organs." Officers found body parts throughout the home, which included a penis found in a bucket as well as a pot filled with human remains in her van. The alleged incident took place at Thyrion's mother's house, where it is claimed that the duo was high on methamphetamine.

Police said, via the Mirror: "Schabusiness made the comment that at one point, she did get paranoid and lazy and that she thought it was the ‘dope’ that was making her paranoid." They also added that the accused killer allegedly told them that she enjoyed abusing the body of the 25-year-old deceased male. Police found Schabusiness at home covered in blood, and she admitted to the use of drugs and that she and Thyrion went to his mother's home to have sex "using chains," as reported by the <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/02/14/taylor-schabusiness-attacks-lawyer-in-court-after-accused-of-killing-lover/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a>. She reportedly admitted that she didn't intend on killing the 25-year-old, but it's also alleged that she revealed that she sat on the victim and watched him die as he coughed up blood. After being found competent to stand in front of the Wisconsin court, Schabusiness entered the courtroom this week where she was informed that her March 6 trial had been delayed by two weeks so her attorney, Quinn Jolly, could have extra time to review evidence to see whether his client was fit to be in a courtroom. Moments after this decision was made, Schabusiness rushed her attorney and, despite being handcuffed, managed to hit him over the head.

Jolly was unharmed in the incident, and the courtroom was cleared before the hearing was allowed to resume. <h6>Featured image credit: piyamas dulmunsumphun / Alamy</h6>
