Hi friends, how are you today? My name is Bailey Sarian and today is Monday, which means it's
murder, mystery, and makeup Monday. If you're new here, hi, my name is Bailey Sarian and on Mondays
I like to sit down and talk about a true crime story that's been heavy on my
noggin and I do my makeup at the same time. Just kind of like gives me something to do so I'm not
being weird just staring at the camera. It's really nothing more than that. Keeping my hands busy. If
you're into true crime and you like makeup I would say subscribe because I'm here for you
on Mondays. I don't even know where to start with today's story because I have been following this one since the beginning
and I watched the trial and everything
and I was just watching in complete confusion,
disbelief and wonder because what,
I was like, is this real?
Is this like a skit?
It wasn't a skit.
It was real life and I needed to talk about it.
So that's what today's story is about.
I have no words.
I have no words.
Oh, I have no words because it's, ah. Today's
story is really brutal. It's really gruesome. So just a little, just a little disclaimer. It's
brute. Okay. So today's story takes place in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Yeah, Green Bay. Now Green Bay is
famous for their football team, the Packers, and also cheese.
I mean, there are a lot of like little charming neighborhoods
way up in the North country, but low key, you know,
just kind of like a lot of other places in America,
everyone is kind of heavily into drugs.
I mean, not everyone, but you know,
sadly there's a very serious drug underbelly up in Green Bay,
like many other places, right? It's fucking everywhere. And it seems like their drug of
choice seems to be meth. So that's the setting and buckle up because we're going to ride the snake.
We're going to get down to some shabbosness. Here we go. Okay. So it's 3 a.m. February 23rd,
2022. Green Bay 911 gets a phone call from a very confused man. Now this man's name is Steve.
Now on the phone call, he seems kind of calm, a little slow since he had just woken up. So kind
of like brain foggy, but he's calling 911 because his girlfriend, whose name is Tara, is absolutely losing it.
She is in the back. You can hear her on the 911 call. She's hysterical. She's screaming. She's
crying. She woke him up, screaming, telling him to call 911. So Steve's on the phone kind of like,
she just told me to call. You know, like he doesn't fully understand what's going on yet.
So the dispatcher's on the phone asking him like understand what's going on yet. So the dispatcher
is on the phone asking him like, what's going on, right? What's going on? Tell me what's going on.
And he tells them, my girl just woke me up and she swears that she found a severed head
of her son in the basement. The dispatcher asked Steve to repeat himself. I mean, hello,
it's not really common that a head in a bucket is found, you know?
So the dispatcher is like, I'm sorry, come again?
What was that?
And the dispatcher then asked Steve if he's gone down to the basement to confirm that there is, in fact, a head in a bucket.
And Steve says back to the dispatcher, like, I don't know what the fuck's down there.
Like, pardon my language, but I'm kind of a little freaked out here, which honestly, very understandable.
Now the dispatcher continues to ask Steve,
like maybe is your girlfriend Tara,
maybe like hallucinating?
Like we need confirmation here, Steve.
So Steve does decide to go down to the basement
and check it out,
but his eyesight is apparently really bad.
And like, there isn't the best lighting down there.
So he can't exactly
make out like what's down there or in the bucket, but he's definitely, he goes down there and he
checks out and he's freaked out. So Steve goes back to his girlfriend is like, please, can you
just come downstairs and like confirm? Because I don't know what you're seeing, but Tara just
refuses to go downstairs. Fair. I can't blame them. If it is her son's head in a bucket, I don't think I
would want to go back there downstairs and look by myself alone either, actually. Yeah, that's a
terrible idea. I don't know what I would do. I've never seen a head, let alone my non-existing son's
head. So then the dispatcher is like, okay, let me just, can I speak to Tara directly? Then they ask
her, like, do you know where the rest
of your son's body is? And she answers like, I have no idea. I just saw a fucking head. Can you
get over here? So the dispatcher asked her for her son's name. And then that's when Tara tells
them it's Shad Therian. And the dispatcher tells Tara that they're going to send officers out to
her immediately. They were already on their way. But she does check one last time
about the head, the dispatcher. And she says like, are you sure it's not a fake head? And Tara says,
it's real, swear. So within minutes, the police, they get down to Tara's house. She answers the
door. Now she's really shaken up. So when police ask her to come in and like see what's going on,
all Tara can do is really just
point in the direction of the basement. Like she's not really able to say anything. Nothing leaves
her mouth. I mean, it's her kid for Christ's sakes. I don't really blame her. It's funny how
they always want you to act normal on these 911 calls and stuff. And you're like, um, just saw a
head kind of hard to act natural and normal here, ma'am. So one of the
officers that shows up, his name is Officer Alex Blanish. He goes down and he takes a quick glance
around the room. And right away he can tell like it's a crime scene, no question. When he looks
around the room, he sees dried blood all over a bare mattress. And not far from this bare mattress covered
in fricking blood was a black bucket that was on the floor.
And it was covered by a beach towel,
but nobody was going to the beach.
You know what I'm saying?
So officer Wanisch, obviously head in the bucket.
He hesitates a little bit, but he lifts the towel and sees
it's a head in a bucket.
So then he quickly calls for backup.
10-4, got a head in a bucket.
Over.
Then the officer, he goes up to Tara and he's like,
can I please get a picture of your son?
I just want to be able to confirm that it is indeed his head in the bucket.
So she gives him the picture and he goes downstairs and he confirms that it is indeed Shad, Tara's son, Shad's head.
He's like looking in this bucket and then he also finds right underneath or like next to the severed head,
there was also a penis in the bucket with two testicles still attached. Huh? Yeah. Huh? Yeah. So the officer
is looking around the room. You know, it's a crime scene now. And that's where he notices that
the blood wasn't just on the mattress. There were also like swishes of blood on the concrete floor.
It looked like swirled fingerprint paint, excuse me.
But it really looked like somebody kind of had like a towel
and was trying to like clean up the blood,
but then they gave up.
They're like, meh.
So the killer must've been like a little bit lazy.
So the officer, he's searching around the room.
And while he's looking around,
he finds two different blood soaked knives.
And immediately he's thinking
like, okay, these are probably the murder weapons, but they were not the only murder weapons lying
around. Officer Von Nisch finds a plastic bag with three more bloody knives. Inside the plastic bag,
one of those knives was like a bread knife. And then there were like other kitchen knives with it.
So it was like either one or maybe
all of these knives had been the murder weapon to kill Shad, you know? Many more bags were found
in the basement and within these bags there were various body parts and organs that once belonged
to Shad inside of them. I mean it wasn't just Shad's head and genitals that were found.
It was so much more.
There was like this big blue storage container
and Officer Monish finds Shad's upper torso inside of it.
And to make matters worse,
it's like inside of his upper torso,
upper torso in the container,
inside of the upper torso, upper torso in the container, inside of the upper torso, gift within a gift.
So as in Shad's chest, there was his foot. His foot was put in the, Lord be with us, Jesus. What?
Yes. Shad's chest was being used as storage, I guess, for his other parts. And below where his
head was supposed to be, there were like these really stiff cuts. Like someone was trying really,
really hard to use one of these kitchen knives to saw off his head. But like it, it wasn't working.
And I don't know, but it was rough. Alongside in that blue container, there were also just various bodily fluids.
It didn't say exactly what, but like it wasn't just blood.
I think that says enough.
So, okay, this officer, Officer W,
I think it's one-ish.
Officer W, he had pretty much walked into like
a very brutal, very manic crime scene. Shad's body
had been completely dismembered. Certain parts were missing. Certain parts seemed to be in the
wrong place. So it was like, what the hell is going on? Right? Within this murder room, there
was a glass pipe that was found and like a gram of some kind of substance. It was noted a light colored powdered material
within like a bag next to it.
And this was just sitting like on the TV stand
next to the bed.
So to answer like what the hell is going on?
It seemed to be the answer is meth, you know?
So at this point it was confirmed Shad was murdered.
And not only that, brutally murdered, brutally murdered.
So the officer asked Tara, you know, Shad's mom,
like who was the last person to see Shad?
Who was the, who, what?
And Tara tells him it was a friend of his,
like a friend with benefits, you could say. And that was 25-year-old
Taylor Shabiznes. I'm going to pause for that last name, Shabiznes. The things you could do
with that last name. Shabiznes? Let's get down to Shabiznes. She could have been Shabiznes. Come on.
I couldn't, I couldn't. I was like, Shabiznes? Huh? Shabiznes. Now I know what
you're thinking. Great name. We all thought it. Not her birth name. Not her birth name. I could
go on and on for hours about the name Shabiznes, but I won't. She was born as Taylor Coronado
in Evanston, Illinois on November 23rd, 1997. She's a Sag, but we're not claiming her.
She's been removed.
So what's up with Taylor?
Let me tell you.
Taylor had shitty life.
Let's just be honest, shit life thus far.
She was raised by her parents, Marla,
and her dad is Arturo Coronado.
And she also had a younger brother named AJ.
And although they weren't like a perfect family,
you know, at which every family is not,
they were together and they lived a somewhat decent middle-class life, it was said.
Taylor's dad, Arturo, he had been a longtime employee of a large phone company.
I mean, back in the dinosaur times when cell phones were like brick phones.
And he had been working for this company forever.
So, you know, they did well. They were like brick phones. And he had been working for this company forever. So, you know, they did well.
They were comfortable, stable,
and from the outside looked somewhat good.
It was said when Taylor got into fourth grade,
Arturo, he got transferred to Green Bay, Wisconsin.
And that's when he decided to move like the whole family
to this new location, right?
And put down their roots there.
Her mother, Marla, was a severe alcoholic
and like the kind of alcoholic that definitely could not make a super stable household. Marla
was really sick. In May of 2009, when Taylor was 11, the whole family was like watching a movie
together. Everything's fine and great. But by morning, you know, everyone
went to bed, whatever. By morning, Arturo wakes up. He turns over to greet his wife. And in bed,
that's when he finds her non-responsive, Marla. So he reached out to touch her. And that's when
he said that she was already cold. So Taylor's mom, Marla, she died of cirrhosis from alcoholism in her sleep
at the age of only 41. So sad. So very young. Look, as a parent, like Arturo was like,
I'm just going to try and hide what happened because the kids have to go to school.
So like in the morning, the kids came into their bedroom. It taylor and aj and to say like good morning or something
but arturo decided to shield them the kids from her lifeless body and like set them off to school
like everything was normal so they wouldn't see anything it was said like taylor knew deep down
that something was wrong but she couldn't tell what and it wasn't until like later that day when
the kids came back from school and whatnot that the Arturo had like broken the news to them that, you know, their mom had died.
Marla's death obviously like took a toll on the whole family.
And it really hit Taylor the hardest.
I mean, how could it not?
It was her mom, you know.
She was so young and she didn't know how to process her grief.
And then on top of that, Arturo, Taylor's dad, he got married pretty quickly after
her mother's death. So it's like a lot of change to go through, some trauma, right? That she really
didn't get to process. So with all of that, as Taylor started growing up, you know, she started
to act out, you can say. Getting into trouble, having like some kind of rage attacks. It was different.
It was a different girl, according to Arturo. It was said that Taylor, she at school, she started
to like pick fights with everybody. She was constantly getting in trouble for her behavioral
issues. And her dad, obviously, he was concerned. But you know, she's a young girl. She lost her mom.
She's just acting out.
She's being a preteen slash teenager.
Like he tried his best,
but he felt like there wasn't much he could do
because she was just a teenager,
which is like, okay, fair, but I don't know.
But when Taylor turned 12 years old, Arturo, her dad,
he had found her trying to end her life.
And I guess she had taken like a knife to her throat.
And when he found her, it was just in time to like stop her.
And at that point, that's when her dad was like, okay, she needs help.
She needs real help.
So he immediately got her seen by a doctor you know for
mental health he took her to a mental health professional in hopes that she could get some
kind of real help that he didn't know how to deal with unclear if taylor received actual treatment
or if she just saw a doctor but either way she was mainly treated with drugs she was getting
medication for like adhd she was getting mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and even antidepressants as well.
Even with all the heavy medications, Taylor was on to help her manage her mental health.
It wasn't getting to the root of the problem, you know, so it still continued on.
Up through high school, Taylor was constantly picking fights.
And I guess just being a menace really is
how it sounded. Up through high school, Taylor, she just kept picking fights. She kept being awful,
but she did meet a nice young man and get a boyfriend named Shad. Yes, this is when she
meets Shad. So both of them are kind of just up to no good being misfits. And after enduring years of
behavioral problems, her school just had enough and they decided it was best to expel Taylor.
Now at this point, Arturo, her dad, had no idea like what to do with her anymore, right? She's
acting out. He's trying his best. So he thought the best thing to do with her would be to send
her off to Texas to live with her grandparents. And like, that's where she would end up finishing school, high school. And she could just kind of get away
from her Green Bay issues or whatever was going on back at home. And it was a really good move
because Taylor, she ends up graduating high school in Texas. She gets her diploma. And then after graduation, she turns 18. She's feeling good and
kind of proud of herself or something. I can't, I don't know how she's feeling, but it was said
she thought she was doing great and decided it'd be best to just go off of her medications,
which is very dangerous because a lot of times the medications will make you feel better. You
think you're doing better. Then you stop taking the medications because you're like, I don't need them anymore
because they're working and I feel great. And then they go off and that's not great. So then in 2017,
Taylor's now 19. She thinks it'd be best to move back to Green Bay. She's fully off her medications. She's feeling good.
And she's ready for her triumphant return to Green Bay.
At this point, it was said that Taylor had been self-medicating
with like weed, typical kind of like teenage stuff, and also alcohol.
But then she started to experiment a little bit
with something that she called the bitch.
The bitch. And you're probably wondering with something that she called the bitch, the bitch.
And you're probably wondering, well, what's the bitch?
Well, the quote unquote, the bitch is actually, it's meth.
The bitch is meth.
Yeah, I know a jump.
She went from weed and alcohol to meth.
I was like, wow, usually there's an in-between,
but okay, yeah, straight to meth, all right.
It was actually quote unquote the bitch
who introduced Taylor to the man
that she would go on to marry,
her drug dealer, Warren Chabot, Chabot, Chabot, Chabot.
Warren, dream man, he's in his 20s, he's tall, okay?
He has a job.
So Taylor's like, wow, all of the bases are covered. Dream man.
And Taylor was smitten. She falls hard for Warren. And the two quickly become like very,
they're inseparable, you know, plus a two for one for her. She's like, I got my drug dealer
and a lover slash husband. All right. I'm doing good. So their relationship was pretty rough
right from the beginning. I mean, plus on top of that, they're doing meth. So their relationship was pretty rough right from the beginning I mean plus on top of that they're doing meth
So it's like it's not gonna be the smoothest relationship right between the two of them
They were always making accusations about somebody cheating, you know
They're like you're cheating now. You're cheating just messy allegedly like warren was very controlling
Uh of taylor right from the start. And he started to isolate her from the
family. And Taylor once said that like during a meth fueled fight, she had run to like her
neighbor's house to call 911 for help. But you know, despite all this, Taylor and Warren, the
two of them got married in 2019. Oh, great. Just what they should do is get married. But here's the thing, instead of changing her last name
to Warren's last name, which was Shabo,
Warren has Taylor change her last name to Shabizness.
I guess it was Warren's idea and she was like,
okay, let's do it.
And she did, Shabizness.
Meth, I don't know.
Now, meth, a lot of the times, it's kind of a joke.
Meth, right? Some people talk about meth users as being just erratic and crazy and all that stuff,
but they're some of the most erratic drug users of all time. It can make people absolutely
just lose their minds and their teeth fall out. They pick at their skin. I mean,
it's awful from what I hear.
I've never done this. I don't plan on it. But it's actually, it's more than that. It's like
hugely heartbreaking. And it's almost an impossible addiction to break. When a person's on meth,
they can experience hallucinations, paranoia, they can exhibit symptoms of what looks like
schizophrenia. I mean, the list goes on. But what I'm getting at is that meth really fucks you up.
Okay?
And then long-term,
meth actually changes the literal shape of your brain.
It rewires your brain's dopamine system,
which is like the pleasure system,
so that the only thing that makes you feel good is meth,
and only meth. So it's like, it's a demon and it truly
is a bitch. It's just not something people can just stop easily on their own. You know, like
sad. Hopefully you don't do meth. In July of 2020, Taylor was high on meth and she was running around a Green Bay neighborhood,
just like knocking on people's doors. She's like, come on. She's knocking on people's doors
and someone calls the cops, obviously, right? Because this chick is just acting kind of crazy.
Officers, they find Taylor on the streets and that's when she tells them that, quote,
she's on a different planet right now, end quote.
Sick.
And she ends up showing the officers
her fresh track marks on her arms from her meth use.
So at least they knew kind of like
what they were working with, I guess.
I don't know, but they knew what they were working with.
So they ended up managing to calm Taylor down,
but then another police officer shows up to the scene
and she's getting
all spooked and kind of like scared. So she starts screaming at the officers. She walks into
oncoming traffic. She's popping off and she's just acting erratic. Okay. So the officer,
they try to get her to come back to like the sidewalk, so she's not in traffic.
But this time she's getting really angry
and she starts to kick them.
And then they placed her under arrest.
And they also charged her with resisting arrest
and battery on law enforcement
because she was like kicking and screaming the officers.
And because it was her first felony,
she only got three years probation
and a mandatory psychological evaluation. I know they're like, it's your first felony. She only got three years probation and a mandatory psychological evaluation.
I know they're like, it's your first felony. No more than a month later in August of 2020,
mind you, this was like peak pandemic, by the way, remember? Yeah. None of us remember
because it's been a bore. But what's Ms. Taylor up to? Well, she ends up getting pulled over.
She's driving, woo, woo, you know?
So she's like supposed to pull over,
but instead she floors it.
I guess she needed to handle some shabizness.
Thank you, thank you.
I had to do one.
Okay, so she ends up flooring it.
And I guess she ends up sending police like
on a high speed chase through Green Bay. She runs a bunch of lights, almost hits a bunch of people.
She ends up pulling into her dad's apartment complex where she then like hops out of the car,
tries to make a run for it like an idiot. She gets out of the car. She's running. She's trying
to get to her dad's apartment for some reason.
Like she thinks she's really gonna like escape the police.
But they end up snatching her, arrest her.
She only gets three months in jail
and two more years of probation.
I just feel like after this,
maybe it's been longer in jail, not three months,
but what do I know?
I don't know anything.
I just know our legal system is dumb as shit.
I think we can all agree she's off
to a pretty rocky start, right?
And at this point in Taylor's life, she's like,
you know what?
You know what I haven't done yet?
I haven't become a mother.
Yeah, I know, what better time to become a mom than this?
Great, this is gonna go well.
By the time Taylor is
arrested in August of 2020, she's pregnant. And according to a friend, you know, she, at this time
when she was pregnant, she was still doing drugs. So she decides to end up moving back to her
grandparents' house in Texas, where she could try and live a clean life while she's pregnant.
Meanwhile, Warren, her husband, I guess he had gone to jail because he
got caught dealing meth. So without him around, I think that's when she decided to go back to her
grandparents. I mean, it makes sense, right? He's a drug dealer. So he was doing his job and he got
caught for it. So he was charged with possession with intent to distribute a felony. So he got sent off to federal prison, leaving Taylor to be a single mom. And
good luck, girl, you know? Taylor got two felonies and barely had to serve any time.
But he got caught and he had to serve a lot of time. So, all right, you know, all right, can't figure that one out. In early 2021. Taylor ends
up she's 23. At this point, she delivers her baby boy and Taylor decides to give motherhood her best
shot. During this time, she's also you know, trying to keep her hands busy, trying to keep
herself busy. So she doesn't go back to using. She starts her own little small
business where she's like selling like custom beaded jewelry and she's like selling it on
Facebook. You know, she's just doing her thing. But for Taylor, it was still a daily struggle for
her. Like I guess shortly after her son was born, Taylor had two suicide attempts back to back.
One was in April of like 2021 and then another in May of 2021.
Taylor wasn't officially diagnosed with postpartum.
But after these two suicide attempts, Arturo, Taylor's father, knew that Taylor just something wasn't right in her in her mind.
And he was really
worried about her trying to do it again. So he decides like or suggests that she should be
admitted to a hospital and she goes and they give her a new set of diagnoses, PTSD, ADHD,
and bipolar disorder. So at this time, Taylor's baby goes to live with Warren's side of the family.
And it's probably for the best, hopefully. But she knows that she fully can't take care of
him right now. Now I know to most of us, it's like, okay, this is probably Taylor's rock bottom.
She lost her son. Her husband is in federal prison. Her mental health is in the toilet, and this is probably where she'll make
a comeback. But no. So she was in the hospital for a little bit, she ends up getting released
or discharged, and she ends up staying with her dad for a few months. And it seemed like he was
really stepping up to the plate for Taylor. Like he was the one person who was like stable for her,
you know, at least she had somewhere to go and it was family.
But the downside,
because there's always a downside, right?
A few months later, Arturo, Taylor's dad, he was arrested.
Oh girl, let me tell you,
because this is a fucking mess, a mess.
He was arrested for rape being a 13 year old girl.
Not great.
So back in 2018, it was like three years prior to his arrest, he committed an extremely serious statutory rape with a then 13 year old who was a relative of his then wife.
I don't know if they're his wife. Yeah. So what the fuck is up with this family? Green Bay, I guess.
I don't know. So he ended up pleading no contest and he cut a deal
for a second degree sexual assault of a child charge instead of first degree. Yay? I don't know.
Anyway, he was sentenced to 12 years and sent to prison. I know, Jesus. We don't know the dynamic
of this family. Let's just say Taylor had no idea her dad was like this at all.
It would suck for her to finally have some stability like her dad in her life again.
And then he gets arrested.
And then you find out your dad's arrested for statutory rape.
That would probably cause another rock bottom is what I'm thinking.
So she's like, great.
Now my dad's gone. So now Taylor is back
on her own. And during this time, she found out that Warren, her husband had cheated on her
yet again. I guess she found out that, you know, while he was in prison, she found out that some
infidelity had taken place before he went, or maybe he cheated on her while he was in prison. Not really clear, but regardless,
in January of 2022, Taylor went to her Facebook.
Here's the quote.
I got hitched to show them my commitment,
loyalty and dedication to them.
That I was never gonna be how I used to be.
Then they turn around and fuck on me.
There's no way I'll ever go into another relationship.
Hashtag can't trust no one. Yeah,
you tell him Taylor. You tell him. Hashtag can't trust no one. Not even yourself. In February of
2022, Taylor is at a new low and she's wanting to get back on the bitch. So she rekindles a friendship with her old high school lover, Shad. Now at this time,
Shad too was really into meth. So they had a lot in common and he could also get it for her. And
in February of 2022, they got back in touch through a mutual friend, which led to Taylor and Shad
spending most of their time together just doing drugs and having
sex because that's what they did on men. While her husband is in jail she's like I need my own buddy.
So on the night of February 22nd Taylor and a friend are looking to party. So the both of them
they jump into Taylor's roommate's minivan and they go pick up Shad and he's at his house where he lives with
his mom Tara and her boyfriend Steve. So they pick him up and they're driving and they make a pit stop
to get some drugs. They pick up meth, weed, and trazodone. Crowd favorites I hear. And they go back
to Taylor's apartment to shoot the shit, smoke some weed, do some drugs. At this point you know
I guess I don't really know. I wasn't
there, but allegedly everyone was having a great time. Taylor and Shad, they want a little bit more.
You know, they want, they really want to get the party started. So that's when they break out like
the meth and they start doing the higher stuff. But the high, I guess when it gets too intense,
that's when they take the trozodone to like mellow it out. So they're going up,
they're going down, they're going up, they're going down, they're going down, they're going
down, they're going up. They're just all over the place. Well, at some point, their friend,
I guess, is a little party pooper and decides to leave Shad and Taylor to themselves. Decides to
go home, right? Shad and Taylor, they hang out at her apartment for a few more hours.
They're waiting for their drugs to come down. And at that point, I guess they're out of meth. So they decide, let's go get more.
They're pretty much all day on a, just a drug binge. So they leave Taylor's place. They go
pick up more meth. And then this time they head back to Shad's house where he lives with his mom.
And they go inside and they head straight
down to the basement because the basement is where like is the hangout spot, right? You get it.
Hangout spot. By the time they make it back to Shad's place, it's already late. Like it's
early in the morning, depending on who you ask, you know. But all Taylor knows is that she is on
a good one. So they're down there just doing drugs. She passes Shad the
glass pipe loaded with the bitch because he wants to be on her level. They settle in for no more
than five minutes. And at this point, Shad pulls out and shows Taylor two silver chain link
necklaces. I know I was thinking like hot topic, like necklace type of deal, but it's not.
It's a dog choke collar.
And he's like suggesting that they use it
while they're having sexual intercourse.
And she's like, yeah.
I'm into that.
It was her thing.
It was their thing.
They both liked it.
So they're both into this kink, being choked, you know?
And they had done it before consensually,
which is always important,
right? Consent. Taylor and Shad are no strangers to this, you know? They were like really into it,
allegedly. But this time, Shad, I guess, really wanted to kick it up a notch and use the chains.
And like, I guess Taylor was just so down for it. She's like, what? Yeah. That's, yeah.
So just a disclaimer, the following of what I'm going to say is what Taylor said during her confession.
So it's very one-sided, okay?
And when she was giving her confession, she was high.
So a lot of it is kind of wacky and whatever.
So, but this is the information we have, okay?
So it's not me saying these things.
This was according to Taylor.
So Taylor said that Shad had the chains around his neck and he laid face down on the bed.
Taylor said that she gets on top of him as if like she's going to ride a horse.
And she begins to pull on the loose end of the chain. She said as she was pulling on the chain,
she like watched Shad
and she sees his face turn from red to purple.
And then she notices him kind of going in
and out of consciousness.
Taylor would say during her high,
it was cool because she was like,
wow, I can like change his face color.
So she keeps applying pressure on the
chain, trying to make him go from red to purple to blue to whatever. And she tells police officers
during her confession that because she was high, she wanted to make him small. Like when she choked
him, he got smaller. I don't know. But according to her, again, because she's high, she was choking him and it was appearing
that his neck was rebuilding muscle.
So because of this, she was getting more and more frustrated
and she was pulling harder and harder on the chain.
She said at one point, Shad, he like coughs up blood.
And she said that she could feel his heartbeat,
like kind of really slow down and come to a halt.
And that somehow excited her even more.
So she pulls even harder.
At this point, she said she was in full ecstasy and she knew Shad was dead according to his face because he was purple and he had blood coming out of his mouth. So she knew like
something wasn't right or he was dead, but that didn't stop her. She keeps going. And the police
ask her, why the hell did you keep going? If you knew like, you know, he was dead. And she said,
because of curiosity, she wanted to see what would happen. Yeah, I don't know, girl. So Taylor, in her words,
quote, accidentally fucks up, end quote, and realizes that she had just killed Shad. But she
said that she had no remorse in her higher self. It was all about chasing this pleasure feeling,
and she was feeling it. So after she's done choking him, she decides to quote unquote play with him.
In other words, she takes her sweet time with Shad's lifeless body and his body is like turning her on.
In her confession, she said that Shad's lifeless body turned her on so much that she wanted to touch
and kiss it and love on it all over.
Yeah, this next part kept me up a little too late at night
because she ends up performing oral sex on his corpse,
a visual I could have done without.
She ends up putting different sex toys.
She has sex toys on deck.
I'm assuming, I couldn't figure this out,
but I'm assuming this is probably where like Shad slept
is in this basement.
And what's her name?
Taylor pulls out some sex toys
and she ends up like playing with his body
and the sex toys and different things to his corpse.
He's, she's doing it all. And I don't know what the fuck that i don't know
yeah i was like what what girl yeah she did that she did it for hours allegedly according to her
confession she ends up playing with his corpse for far too long until she gets really tired or
her high wears off tay Taylor, at this point,
when she's playing with the corpse's body,
she had been awake for over 24 hours.
So after she's done playing with his body,
she's like, I'm tired,
and decides to take a quick little nap.
Yeah, I don't know, you guys.
Like, what, huh?
She did that.
She got down to she-business, didn't she?
Wow.
So she then, she takes a nap.
So then when she wakes up,
she thinks it would be best to take Shad's body
with her out of the house.
But she knows like, I can't just like carry his body
out of the basement by myself
and then carry him to the van.
So this is when she has a light bulb moment
and she decides, oh my God, duh.
I could just cut him up into small,
manageable pieces. And then I can carry him. That's a great idea, Taylor. Yeah, I know. Thanks.
And this was her plan. So the first thing I guess Taylor wants to do is she wants his head.
According to her, it was like her trophy. She was proud of it. But also like she really liked Shad. She wanted his head.
It was her favorite part. So while Shad's family is asleep, Taylor creeps upstairs. She goes to
the kitchen. She grabs like a handful of knives to take with her downstairs to the basement. So
Taylor pulls Shad's body to the edge of the bed. So his head is like hanging off of the edge of the bed and she puts a bucket right underneath him.
And she starts experimenting with a few of the knives
that she had grabbed from the kitchen.
She's trying to sever Shad's head,
but none of them were working.
So she's getting all frustrated.
That is until she busts out the bread knife.
Now, I guess this bread knife,
it made it very easy to cut through the skin and muscles. So she loved this knife. Now, I guess this bread knife, it made it very easy to cut through the skin and muscles.
So she loved this knife. She's like, oh, this is the shit. It just starts going to town.
She goes at it and Taylor successfully is able to remove Shad's head. She had this bucket under
his head, right? And it was catching like all of his blood so she takes that bucket and she pours all
of his fluids down in the shower there was like this janky shower in the basement but she pours
his blood down the shower drain and then she puts his head in the bucket the head isn't enough
though she wants to take all of him home with her. So she continues. She takes that bread knife again and
she cuts off her second favorite thing, his genitals. Yeah. So she got the head. Now she wants
the genitals. She cuts it off and she puts his penis and testicles into the bucket and then
moves on to the rest of his body. But after this, she needs another nap. So she's like, I'm gonna do the rest. I just
need a nap. Hold on. So she takes another nap. I guess this nap just gives her some new energy
because she wakes up and she fucking gets down. And what I mean is like, it's awful. Because she
wakes up, she has energy. I don't know. She manages to cut shad in half long ways yeah not all the way
in half but like opens him up because it she's able to get inside of his chest stomach and pelvic
area and she takes all of his organs out and she puts them in random like plastic walmart bags
yeah and she just starts going to town. She's taking out everything, putting them into
bags. I don't know. No one knows what she's doing. She's just doing it. That's when she places
Shad's torso into that big blue container. And then Taylor saws Shad's arms off at the elbows
and puts it in the storage container. But no matter how many times she saw the arms off, in her mind, because again, she's high,
she tells police that they were growing back.
So she's tripping out, just panicking and going to town.
She's tripping hard.
Taylor just keeps at it though.
And she cuts off Shaz's left foot
and puts it in the empty chest.
She said she put the foot in the chest for storage
because she was going to move it all, you know?
So she's like, yeah, the chest will hold the foot.
It was a new one for me.
Haven't heard that.
I was like, all right.
I guess at this point, Taylor was just exhausted.
She had done a lot of right.
So she slows down a little bit and she starts to dabble
with more delicate work. Like she starts to fillet his back and right thigh, cutting off the skin.
She goes, she cuts it off all the way down to the bone. And I was like, oh no, don't tell me she
ate it. She didn't eat it. She didn't, no eating that we know of. She said in the, during the interview that at some point she had a Jolly Rancher with her.
And that once she cut off his head and stuff and she put it all in the bucket,
she took that Jolly Rancher and she spit it into the bucket.
She's like, that's all I ate was a Jolly Rancher and I spit it in the bucket.
Okay, girl.
All right.
Everything seems fine here.
Total normal confession happening. I mean,
there's a mess and blood everywhere. And the bitch was just making her paranoid. She said she started
having more intense hallucinations. She's hearing footsteps. She's hearing gunshots. The room begins
to make her very uncomfortable. And on top of that, she's like, there was no door. And it's just scary and
dark and eerie. And she wants to be done with all this because she's just really fucking in her head
because she's high. So with all this being said, she starts cleaning. She's like, I have to go.
We have to get out of here. We have to go. Starts cleaning like crazy, right? She starts off strong.
Clean, clean, clean. But then she ultimately gets lazy and starts to half-ass everything she's like i don't want to clean anymore i'm hungry where's
my jolly rancher where the jolly rancher go she ends up throwing the towel over the bucket with
shad's head in it and penis and she said that she threw the towel over with the full intention of
her like taking it home but she's rushing at this point
to get the hell out of there.
So she grabs his still intact left foot and leg
and forgets all about the bucket.
She leaves it behind.
Now this should bring us all the way back to the beginning
because we know what happened next.
Tara, Chad's mom, finds the head in the bucket
and then tells police to go looking for Taylor Shabizness. I guess Shad's mom said Taylor and
Shad had been hanging out in the basement for well over 24 hours before she had found his head.
That they had come home late Monday night. They had spent all day. They didn't even come out of
the basement Tuesday and they were just doing their thing down there.
And Chad's mom said, you know, they're old enough to like hang out.
And also, I didn't want to walk in just randomly down in the basement and accidentally see them having sex or something.
Like that was her reasoning as to why she didn't go down there and check.
I could see that, but you know, okay, sure. So with this information, police dispatch a unit of police officers
to Taylor's apartment to locate the minivan
that she was driving the night of Shaz's death.
And they ended up finding this minivan
at Taylor's apartment complex.
They get her address,
they go right to her apartment complex.
There's the van.
The officers, they didn't even need to like
shine their flashlights into the van because as they approached the vehicle, the van, like the lights turned on
by themselves as if someone was either locking or like unlocking the door with a remote.
So they were like, okay, weird. So the police officers are looking inside the window of the
van and they can see like a basket full of what seemed to be dirty laundry. And on top of the laundry was a crock pot box. So no crock pot,
but like the box that came in. So the officers, they turn their attention to the outside of the
car and they're looking around and they could see that there are a few droplets of blood.
So they look and they see that there are footprints
because it's snowing, mind you.
So they see blood in the snow
and they also see footprints leading them straight
to the apartment building that this person walked to
with some blood following them.
It was like, they didn't have to try that hard.
It led them right to her.
So they start heading to the building,
but before they get there, Taylor just walks right out. Maybe that's why the light of the van was on. Like maybe
she was coming back to grab something or maybe leave, but she comes right out. So they, they
stop her. This is all on like body cam footage too. And like the second Taylor sees the police
officer, she like stops dead in her tracks. What's the saying? But
she doesn't try to run or like get away. She just stops and just kind of like smiling because she's
weird. So the police officers, they approach her. They see that she's wearing like a black,
she's wearing all black. She's got a black hoodie, black sweatpants. And when they look more closely,
they can see that the sweatpants were caked in what clearly looked like dried blood. Then they
take a look at her hands and they can see like also stained with blood. And on top of that,
one thing Detective Bailey noticed was that she had on a full face of makeup. She even had a lash
on. I know. I was like, what is this girl doing? Who puts on a lash to murder someone? Or did she put on the lash after the fact
so she could get a nice mugshot?
But she had a full beat on.
I was like, okay girl, whatever.
Her priorities are a little fucked up.
So of course, placed under arrest, right?
They search her van.
They look inside the van and inside that crock pot box,
that's where they find Shad's leg and foot.
And at this moment, that's when they realize
that they've got their killer.
So they take Taylor to the police station
where obviously they get all their photographs
that they need, like her bloodstained hands,
her bloody clothes, the rest of her body.
After they're done taking the pictures,
they give her, you know, that jumpsuit,
the orange jumpsuit that they make all criminals wear.
And then they leave her alone in the interrogation room where they catch her on camera saying like, I fucking hate this outfit.
That part made me laugh because I feel like maybe her concerns seem a little misplaced, but she really fucking hates this alpha.
My girl, you murdered someone.
So I don't think the alpha is really
we should worry about, but I don't know.
So she's being interrogated by a detective named Graff,
and he's asking her all types of questions
where she tells him that Shad was her ex-boyfriend
slash fuck buddy.
They let her know that they found
a lot of blood and Shad's head in a bucket in his mother's basement. To which Taylor responded,
quote, that is pretty fucked up. When I was watching this, I was like, what the fuck is
going on right now? What the fuck is going on right now? Could not wrap my head around her
confession. While Detective Gra graph asked Taylor more questions
about Shad and like what she did back at the house,
it suddenly dawned on her that she had totally forgotten
about Shad's head.
And then all of a sudden, like in during questioning,
she bursts out like, this is a quote, damn the head.
I can't believe I left the head though.
I'm sure they got the right chick, you know?
So detectives ask her the one question
that we all want to know.
Why?
Why did you kill Shad?
What happened?
You know, why did you do it?
And her response to them was, quote,
good question because I blacked out during that time.
But I need to think, end quote.
I know.
I feel like killers,
they always love a good like blackout moment in their story.
They always black out, but then they seem in their story. They always blackout.
But then they seem to remember everything.
It's so funny, isn't it?
They love a blackout.
Detectives ask her, okay, well, do you think the whole body's still there?
And then she asked her to them like, I don't see why not.
Unless I just like left it, which I could have.
Then they asked Taylor how she felt when she strangled him.
And she tells them in like a really lower, creepy tone, I liked have. Then they asked Taylor how she felt when she strangled him. And she tells them in like a really lower, creepy tone.
I liked it.
It was very exciting.
Everything was.
You should check my panties.
End quote.
Not kidding.
She said that.
This is not okay.
This is not okay.
I'm not kidding.
She said that.
Check my panties.
No, girl, no. Girl, what are you doing?
It gets worse. Like if you think this is bad, it just keeps getting worse and worse.
The detectives ask her like, did Shad try to fight back? And she was like, yeah, he did,
but I won. When they get to Shad's dismemberment, they ask her if it took her all day. And she
tells them like, yeah, it did.
And they question if she had taken any other drugs
during that time.
And then Taylor answers, no, she didn't, but I should have.
They asked her how she dismembered Chad's body
and she goes into very great detail
and tells them about the knives in the kitchen
and that her favorite was the bread knife.
I got a snack really quick, cause I'm hungry.
I haven't eaten yet.
Okay, so then, dismemberment Bailey.
Okay, towards the end of Taylor's interrogation,
that's when she starts to like,
she's coming down or off of her drugs maybe,
because that's when she's starting to like apologize.
She's telling detectives that she didn't mean
for all this to happen, that she fucked up, and that she was sorry.
And it's like, yeah, girl, that's what she did. Okay. But it's too late. Sherry gave her full
confession. DNA everywhere. Girl, you're getting charged. You fucking killed someone brutally.
Like, what are you doing? You can't just say sorry and it's all okay. Don't be dumb. I think it's
safe to say that meth really kind of ruined Taylor's brain, right?
After her arrest, authorities had a really hard time
deciding if she was mentally healthy enough
to even stand trial.
Taylor was assigned a lawyer and their name was Quinn Jolly.
Don't get me started on these names.
Okay, Quinn Jolly.
Quinn Jolly, weirdly enough,
also represented her dad in his sexual assault case.
So it was like a bogo.
So they ended up going to her court hearing
where the judge would determine
if they could delay Taylor's trial
to get an expert to evaluate her
because they submitted a plea of not guilty
by reason of mental disease or defect.
Which is kind of valid, right?
But not really, it's not, let me tell you why. Now, I don't know if Just kind of valid, right? But not really.
It's not, let me tell you why.
Now, I don't know if you guys saw this,
but I saw this shit.
So I was watching the court trial.
I was like, what?
I just could not believe the story.
Just could not believe it.
I thought it was fake.
And then I also thought like the whole court trial
was like, did you guys watch Jury Duty?
I thought it was like that.
And it wasn't. was not it was it was
real because okay look they go to a hearing right taylor ends up losing her shit at this hearing
so she's sitting right next to her lawyer mr jolly or whatever the fuck and the judge is kind of like
having a hard time uh approving a short delay of the trial trying to determine right then out of
nowhere taylor who was handcuffed by chains at the waist in her orange jumper she all of a sudden
out of nowhere jumps up and leads with her elbow to to like punch her lawyer she gets up she tries
to punch tries to smack she She full on attacks her lawyer.
It's not funny, but I was like,
I've never seen this before in a courtroom.
Wow.
Takes him down pretty much to the ground.
The deputies in the courtroom, they were like slow.
Like where were they?
I don't know.
It was a hot mess.
They wrestled Taylor to the ground
and they ended up clearing the court
before continuing with the hearing.
It was wild. So many were kind of like, if she wanted to show the judge that she was mentally
incompetent, like this is how she would do it. Some really thought that she was kind of just
leaning into this in hopes for the judge to see that she is mentally unwell. And that was kind
of like the debate for a minute. But then as you continue watching the court trial, I just think
this is who she is as a person.
After that whole ordeal,
she was assigned another public defender, fair.
Taylor, she went and got evaluated in February
by a state psychologist to see like,
if she could take the stand, right?
Is she fit?
Well, this one psychologist came back and said,
no, like Taylor is not mentally fit to stand trial.
She's not, she can't. This psychologist told the court came back and said, no, like Taylor is not mentally fit to stand trial.
She's not, she can't.
This psychologist told the court that during one
of her evaluations with Taylor, Taylor had freaked out,
got up out of her seat and started screaming.
Then she took herself to the corner of the room
and picked up a chair, which luckily was a plastic chair
and hawked that shit at the psychologist. The psychologist said that in their
32 years of practice, no one has ever thrown a chair at her. But despite this, the judge ruled
that Taylor was competent to stand trial. It's a very hot tape. Taylor's trial started earlier
this year, July of 2023. Do not recommend. I watch a lot of court trials. I want to work in
a courtroom one day, so I'm always watching. But this court trial was nothing like I've ever seen
before. At the beginning, Taylor's new lawyer asked the court to exclude Taylor's internet
search history before the murder took place. Because this happened before the murder took
place had nothing to do with what happened, and the reason that they wanted her internet search history to not be shown
was because she was making some questionable searches in court they had read them and it was
like oh my fucking girl she was looking up jeffrey dahmer walking into court all sexy. There was another one, Jeffrey Dahmer's butt.
It was like when a kid first gets the internet.
The judge ended up ruling that the evidence
could be admitted to court.
So we have a little Jeffrey Dahmer lover over here.
And I don't get it.
There's so many fish in the sea.
Why, why, why, why Jeffrey Dahmer?
The witness stand during trial was a freaking hot mess. They
called to the stand a friend who was or the friend who was with them the night of Shad's murder.
Remember the friend who was a party poobler and left? So they call up this friend to the stand
and they ask him if he noticed anything weird with Taylor's behavior that night and he said
no. The vibes were chill. Another person who was called to the stand was taylor's father arturo let me
tell you they bring him into court he's in his orange jumpsuit he's also handcuffed because
he's serving his sexual assault sentence situation his rape he ends up taking a stand he tells the
court that taylor's mental health had been declining ever since her mom died. And then he goes on to blame Taylor's
husband, Warren, saying that everything was fine until he got out of jail and fucked everything up.
You know, he introduced his daughter to these drugs and she got involved and he just, he fucked
her up. So he's done with his testimony. They're walking him out of the courtroom and Taylor's sitting there.
She's looking at her dad.
She's like, I love you.
And then he's like, I love you too.
They're talking to each other, which they're not supposed to.
And then after they walk him out of the courtroom,
Taylor yells, go bears.
Honey, now's not the time.
No.
I was like, girl, go bears?
At a murder trial? I mean mean if you watch the trial which you shouldn't
because i'm giving you the whole rundown but you can tell or she seems taylor seems very mentally
unwell every time someone's on the stand she's looking straight at the court cameras and she's
just staring at them and then she's laughing she's giggling all throughout she can't stop laughing
girl you murdered someone what is your problem get it together she's laughing. She's giggling all throughout. She can't stop laughing. Girl, you murdered someone. What is your problem? Get it together. She's just always making some
kind of face like somebody farted, you know? But in court, I guess, mental illness brought on by
drugs or a mental illness that seems to be extreme because of drugs is not considered a quote unquote true mental illness because of the drugs.
So if you kill someone while high, you're liable.
And that's why she was able to go to the whole trial.
After the whole trial, the jury only took one hour
to find Taylor Shabiznes guilty on all charges.
First degree intentional homicide, mutilating a corpse,
third degree sexual assault, and she was facing mandatory life in jail, as she should, because
what the fuck? Remember Taylor Shabizness' husband, Warren Shabau? Well, since her arrest, he really stepped up his husband game.
He's still in federal prison serving his sentence,
but I guess they get access to Facebook in prison.
I didn't look this up.
I forgot to.
Throughout the trial, Warren used Facebook to voice his support for his wife.
No matter what she did, he was posting like,
I'm so blessed to be
with Taylor. My wife is locked up, but like, I love her regardless. She is my ride or die, blah, blah,
blah. He would go on and on. Like she would never do this. She was just having a bad day. He was
like, boy, shut up. Everyone just needs to shut up. She and Warren are still in communication
often, at least, I don't know about right this second,
but when I was researching all this, like they were writing letters to each other.
She was directing him on like what to post on his Facebook saying like, honey, you need to like
post that I'm innocent and that you're standing by me or whatever. Yeah. Yeah. But that's mainly it.
I think they're still married. Well, Taylor will
be spending the rest of her life in prison for murdering Shad as she should be because it was
brutal. I guess today's story really stuck out for me personally. Like it really was like, what the
fuck? I could not wrap my head around it because of, well, obviously how brutal it is.
I think we can all agree that it was very brutal.
And I guess I was really shocked because you don't hear these types of stories a lot
when it comes to women killing, right?
Like this is such mainly a man thing.
Not to be sexist or anything, right?
But I think we can agree in these true crime stories
it's always the men who go off like this rarely is it a woman and for the first time i was like
holy fucking shit like she went ah and yeah probably because of the meth but still i was like
holy fuck never have i ever heard a horrifying story like this. And drugs are bad.
And I'm glad it wasn't used as an excuse for her to get like a lesser sentence
because she shouldn't get a lesser sentence.
Shad's life was lost because of this woman.
And Shad's mom forever traumatized, right?
It's just sad.
I didn't want to look up like where Taylor's kid
or baby is at because I don't,
none of that matters, right?
And I don't think we need to know,
but what the fuck was that about?
I don't know.
Go bears?
Need I say more?
Obviously she's not mentally well.
I think we can all agree on that,
but you still murdered someone
and you don't even just murder girl like you fucking chopped up and that is that's a different
type of rain that i don't ever want to encounter and yes you have to be in jail for a long time
taylor pay for what you did girl sorry but go bears anyways I hope you have a good rest of your day.
Please be safe out there.
Make good choices.
And yeah, I hope you have a good rest of your week.
I'll be seeing you guys later.
Goodbye. Thank you.
