New York Dominatrix Victoria Nasyrova Found Guilty of Cheesecake Poisoning

This verdict may have been crafted from the start.

Russian-born Ms Victoria Nasyrova, accused of poisoning her doppelgänger with a piece of spoiled cheesecake, has been found guilty of attempted murder in a lunatic conspiracy to steal identity.

The Queens jury’s decision follows a week and a half trial in which prosecutors said Nasyrova, 47, carelessly scattered her DNA all over a cheesecake box and later blabbed about the crime in multiple prison interviews.

“The jury saw the deception and schemes of the defendant,” Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz said Thursday.

“She filled a slice of cheesecake with a lethal drug to steal the most valuable thing from an unsuspecting victim – her identity. Luckily, her victim survived and the poison returned to the culprit.”

Nasyrova’s lawyer tried to bring the prosecution to its knees by claiming that the victim, eyelash stylist Olga Tsvyk, initially told an NYPD detective that she had accidentally chosen a piece of dessert – referring to his client playing Russian roulette when he ate the dessert. two others.

But the jury didn’t believe it and found the alleged Russian-born serial poisoner guilty of attempted murder, assault and other charges in a crime committed in August 2016.

On March 21, Queens Supreme Court Judge Kenneth Holder will hand down judgment on Nasyrova of Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. She faces up to 25 years in prison.

“While we are disappointed with the jury’s verdict, we respect it and are looking into our next steps,” said Nasrevoy’s lawyer Christopher Hoyt.

The stunning case of a Russian seductress with a horrific past landed in New York courts after Nasyrova was indicted by a grand jury in 2018 for trying to poison Zwick at her Forest Hills home during an emergency lash lift two years earlier.

Tsvyk testified that Nasyrova, who allegedly fled to the Big Apple after killing a Russian neighbor and burning her body in 2014, said she wanted to bring back “some famous cheesecake from a well-known bakery” as a gift.

Nasyrova quickly ate two bites herself, Zwick told the jury, and then offered her a third, which prosecutors said was laced with the potent Russian tranquilizer phenazepam.

Zwick testified that after about 20 minutes she became desperately ill. She vomited on her own floor and soon passed out.

Prosecutors said Nasyrova stole her girlfriend’s passport, money and other property and then scattered phenazepam tablets around Zwick’s underwear-clad body to make it look like a suicide attempt.

Zwick eventually recovered, although doctors said she was minutes from a heart attack.

“In this case, everything was done very carefully and very methodically by these defendants,” Assistant District Attorney Konstantinos Liturgis told the jury. “This defendant is a very intelligent man.”

Nasyrova, who did not testify in court, previously told The Post from Rikers Island that the cheesecake challenge was just a misunderstanding.

“The last time I saw Olga, she was already unwell – she said that she either ate something or got poisoned,” she said then.

To support their claim that Nasyrova loves to poison her acquaintances, the prosecution also called Ruben Borukhov, 54, as a witness, who testified that Nasyreva drugged him during a date after they met on a Russian dating app.

Borukhov told jurors that he fainted after eating drugged fish prepared for him by Nasyrova. He testified that he did not remember the following weeks, including a couple of trips to the hospital.

When consciousness returned to Borukhov, he found that his new watch was gone, and there were about $2,600 in the American Express account for unfamiliar expenses.

The prosecution also brought the daughter of Alla Alekseenko, a Russian woman whose murder Nasyrova is accused of in 2014. Daughter Hope Ford testified that someone ransacked her mother’s house after her death and stole everything from a toothbrush to the family’s gold. .

Ford said she ran into a dominatrix during a police bite after her mom’s death. Russian police arrested Nasyrova and interrogated her, but later released her.

Later that year, Russian authorities charged her with the murder, and Interpol issued a high priority “red notice” for her arrest when it became known that Nasryrova had fled the country.

In 2017, NYPD guards finally arrested her. And judging by Wednesday’s verdict, the black-haired killer’s luck has finally run out.
