Viktoria Nasyrova is a Russian-born d**inatrix currently residing in New York City. Believe it or not, her unorthodox career is not even her most fascinating quality: In February of this year, she was convicted of attempted murder.
And only a month after her imprisonment, she has once again made headlines, this time because of her attorney, who has been accused of drug smuggling.

In 2016, Nasyrova attempted to kill her supposed friend, eyelash stylist Olga Tsvyk, by feeding her a slice of poisoned cheesecake.
While Tsvyk ultimately survived the incident, the poison caused her to faint. Thinking Tsvyk had died, Nasyrova scattered benzodiazepines around her body, attempting to frame the incidence as a suicide.
Nasyrova’s intention was not only to kill Tsvyk, but to assume her identity, as evidenced by the fact that she had stolen her fainted friend’s passport after the incident.
She currently faces up to 25 years in prison.
Viktoria Nasyrova Had Poisoned Others in the Past
During Nasyrova’s trial, the prosecution brought in witness Ruben Borukhov, who claimed that Nasyrova had drugged him on a date via poisoned fish she had cooked for him.
When he awoke, he discovered his watch stolen and his American Express card racked up with $2,600 in unfamiliar charges.

In November of 2014, Nasyrova was caught on a Russian traffic camera with the dead body of her neighbor Alla Alekseenko in her passenger seat.
Russian authorities assume that she killed the 54 year-old woman to steal the ~$53,000 that she, Alekseenko, had made from selling her late mother’s home.
Nasyrova had failed a lie detector test in which questions were asked about her neighbor’s death.
To escape a life spent within Russia’s notoriously inhumane prison system, Nasyrova fled to Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, where she found work as a d**inatrix.
Viktoria Nasyrova’s Attorney Accused of Drug Smuggling
Christopher Hoyt, the lawyer who represented Viktoria Nasyroya, was recently arrested for allegedly attempting to smuggle fentanyl-laced cannabis into a jail in Queens.
Sources claimed that it was common practice for Hoyt to deliver clothes to Nasyrova prior to her court appearances.
Seeing as the drugs were found in a pair of shoes, many have been quick to assume that he had been discreetly supplying his client with drugs throughout the entirety of the trial.
Since Hoyt’s arrest, Nasyrova has found a new attorney, who will represent her until her sentencing on April 19.
