Taylor Schabusiness describes allegedly dismembering and sexually abusing lover's body

The Wisconsin woman accused of decapitating her lover during a meth-fueled escapade gave a sick description to investigators of how she dismembered him and sexually abused his corpse at the same time, her trial heard Wednesday.

Taylor Schabusiness, 25, offered up the disturbing details in a filmed interrogation soon after she allegedly choked her 25-year-old boyfriend, Shad Thyrion, to death with a dog collar in February 2022, jurors heard.

"I was sucking and cutting at the same time," Schabusiness said in the video, which was played to the jury during Wednesday's proceedings, Law&Crime reported.

"I liked it," she continued. "I didn't know what to do."

Schabusiness, who could be seen laughing at various points throughout the interrogation, added that her lover's head was allegedly the "first thing I took off" and that she was "very" excited about abusing his corpse.

Green Bay Police Department Detective David Graf, who was among those to interview Schabusiness, testified Wednesday that the alleged killer had copped to initially choking her boyfriend as foreplay --- but she "enjoyed it" and "wanted to see what would happen."

Schabusiness then allegedly confessed to cuddling her boyfriend's headless corpse in the wake of the grisly slaying, Graf said.

"She described how she had sexual contact with the body in terms of playing with his peepee. Also, she described that she had a dildo that she placed into his mouth ... And that she had also cuddled the body," the detective testified.

Prosecutors have said Schabusiness used the dog collar to strangle Thyrion at the Green Bay home he shared with his mother before she sexually abused him and then dismembered his body with kitchen knives.

Thyrion's severed head and peepee were later found by his mom in a bucket in the basement of her home, jurors previously heard.

Investigators subsequently discovered parts of Thyrion's body spread throughout the basement, including his torso, which had been emptied of its organs and had his foot shoved into the chest cavity.

Schabusiness is charged with first-degree intentional homicide, mutilating a corpse and third-degree sexual assault.

In February, she attacked her former attorney in the middle of a court hearing before a deputy wrestled her to the courtroom floor.

Brown County Circuit Judge Thomas Walsh ruled in March that Schabusiness was competent to stand trial after that same attorney entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity on her behalf.
