A Manhattan prostitute who killed three johns when she fed them fentanyl-laced drugs to rob them pleaded guilty Tuesday.
Tabitha Bundrick, 39, admitted to giving her customers the powerful synthetic opioid between April 2023 and February 2024 and then taking their personal belongings—including their cell phones, sneakers, money, and watches, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office said.
“The defendant knowingly killed three people by providing them fentanyl-laced drugs,” said District Attorney Alvin Bragg. “As they lay unconscious, she robbed her victims and left them to die. In several instances, the victims’ bodies were found by their friends or family members.”

Bundrick showed a “shocking indifference” to the lives of her victims, Bragg said.
She is expected to be sentenced to 27 years to life for three counts of second-degree murder and one count of second-degree assault.
Bundrick’s crimes began on April 30, 2023, when she met Mario Paullan, 42, and his friend on the street and offered to sell them soap. She then offered to have sex with them for money and took them to an apartment she broke into, prosecutors said.

After taking the fentanyl-laced drugs she gave them, Paullan’s friend woke up to find him dead the next morning and their belongings missing, authorities said.
Months later, she met Miguel Navez, 39, and gave him drugs at his apartment. He was found three days later by his brother, with his belongings also stolen.
The third incident occurred on Feb. 25, 2024, when Abrihan Fernandez, 34, died in his apartment. Bundrick was caught entering and exiting the Upper Manhattan apartment several times with large bags.
She is scheduled to be sentenced on Oct. 6.
