On June 12, 2019, Romy Braun (formerly known as Romy Goldsmith Shapiro) threw a helpless and innocent live cat down a garbage chute from the 20th floor of an apartment building, leaving her trapped to die a horrific death in the building's trash compactor.

She may have changed her name and taken up a new career as a social worker, but she is still the same person responsible for this cruel and despicable act.
