Taylor Schabusiness has denied charges of homicide, mutilating a corpse and third-degree sexual assault

A woman is accused of cutting off her lover’s head during sex and then stuffing it and his penis into a bucket and other body parts into a crockpot.

Taylor Schabusiness appeared in Brown County Circuit Court, in Green Bay, green bay Wisconsin, this week charged with first-degree intentional homicide, mutilating a corpse and third-degree sexual assault, WLUK-TV reported.

The 24-year-old denied the charges and a trial date has been set for October 24.

A criminal complaint accused Schabusiness of strangling 25-year-old Shad Thyrion to death in February at a Green Bay home, sexually abusing his lifeless body and then mutilating the corpse with a serrated bread knife.

Police said Schabusiness removed an electronic monitoring device she wore for an unrelated crime just hours before Thyrion was killed. A warrant was issued for her arrest for violating the conditions of her release, but she was not found until after police uncovered Thyrion’s murder.

On February 23, police were called to a home in Stony Brook Lane in Green Bay by a woman who reported finding her son’s severed head in a bucket. Responding officers also found a “male organ” in the bucket, an upper torso in a storage tote, “body fluid and knives”, the New York Post reported.

When Schabusiness was tracked down at another address police reportedly found her with dried blood on her clothes, and during a search of her van, a crockpot was found containing human remains, including legs.

Under questioning, Schabusiness allegedly said “that the police were going to have fun trying to find all of the organs”, the Post reported.

According to reports, Schabusiness said she and Thyrion had been smoking meth before going to his mum’s house to have sex using chains.

At one point, the accused told police, she blacked out, after which she “went crazy” and allegedly strangled Thyrion.

She said she did not mean to kill him, but enjoyed chocking him.

Schabusiness, the Post reported, told police she planned on taking all the body parts with her but “got lazy and only ended up putting the leg/foot in the van and she forgot the head”.
