In a critical development that shook Brown County, a jury on Wednesday found Taylor Schabusiness, a 25-year-old woman, guilty of the chilling charges of homicide, third-degree sexual abuse, and mutilating a corpse. The victim was her former boyfriend, 24-year-old Shad Thyrion, in an incident that took place in February 2022.
After an intense day of final statements and evidence review, the jury began its deliberations at approximately 4:50 p.m. A short fifty minutes later, the twelve jurors, who had been tasked with making this crucial decision, returned to the courtroom. Their verdict: Taylor Schabusiness was to be held accountable for her horrifying actions. This decision was promptly followed by the accused's exit from the courtroom, escorted out by bailiffs in handcuffs.
Schabusiness was initially arrested in February 2022 when law enforcement was called to an address on Stony Brook Lane in Green Bay. Thyrion's mother made a grim discovery that day: she found her son's severed head in a bucket in the house's basement. In the aftermath of this gruesome discovery, Schabusiness was subsequently charged with Thyrion's murder and the horrific act of dismemberment.
Brown County Circuit Court Judge Thomas Walsh has asked the jury to return to the courtroom by 9:15 a.m. the following Thursday. The next phase of the trial is set to examine whether Schabusiness could be deemed not guilty due to mental disease or defect. This plea was entered on her behalf by her former attorney, Quinn Jolly, in September. Jolly represented Schabusiness until an incident in February, when she assaulted him during a hearing.
During their closing arguments on Wednesday, prosecutors Caleb Saunders and David Lasee presented a straightforward case to the jury. Lasee, the Brown County district attorney, stated emphatically, "This is bizarre. This is strange. This is unnatural, but in no way is it unclear," reinforcing that Schabusiness was the cause of Thyrion's demise.
Supporting Lasee's assertions, Saunders, an assistant district attorney, reiterated the central truth of the case, "What the defendant did to Shad Thyrion."
However, defense attorney Christopher Froelich proposed a different perspective. In his opinion, the evidence painted an unclear, confusing picture. "This case is a puzzling, unclear collection of facts," Froelich commented, highlighting the difficulty in ascertaining Schabusiness's intent or whether Thyrion's death was accidental.
The jury, composed of nine women and seven men, underwent an intense selection process. As deliberations commenced, four jurors were marked as alternates to ensure a thorough and impartial verdict.
As the world awaits the next phase of this disturbing trial, it is evident that the case of Taylor Schabusiness continues to captivate public interest, presenting a complex narrative of brutality, law, and potential mental health considerations. The upcoming proceedings will be closely watched and reported as the saga unfolds.
