GREEN BAY, WI— A woman convicted of killing and dismembering a Green Bay man in February of 2022 has been sentenced to prison without the possibility of parole.
Taylor Schabusiness, 26, was charged with 1st-degree intentional homicide, 3rd-degree sexual assault, and mutilating a corpse in the death of Shad Thyrion, 24.
Prosecutors said Thyrion and Schabusiness had smoked meth in the basement of Thyrion’s mother’s Green Bay home before Schabusiness strangled, decapitated, and dismembered him. She then left parts of his body throughout the house and in a vehicle.
Schabusiness was convicted by a jury in July. The jury found she wasn’t mentally ill when she committed the crimes.
The homicide charge already carries a penalty of life in prison. The judge on Monday added another 18 years to her sentence for the victim’s sexual assault and dismemberment.
