The wop was a stinking whore in need of a fucking with a baseball bat.

There were tears � but only for herself.

Long Island cesspool scion Lauren Pazienza on Friday denied calling a
beloved vocal coach a �bitch� before shoving her to the ground � then wept
as she was sentenced to 8 � years in prison for the heartless, random
assault on a Manhattan street.

The 28-year-old former events coordinator for a high-end French furniture company was expected to serve only 8 years.

But Justice Felicia Mennin tacked on an additional six months � blasting Pazienza for her �inability to take responsibility for her actions.�

Pazienza had given a probation officer inconsistent accounts about her responsibility for killing 87-year-old Barbara Gustern, whom Pazienza
called a �bitch� before shoving her to the ground in an unprovoked attack
in Chelsea on March 10, 2022, prosecutors say.

But Pazienza sang a different tune in court Friday � denying she called
Gustern a �bitch� when questioned by by Manhattan Assistant District
Attorney Justin McNabney.

The fiery redhead had pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter last
month but had her sentence changed by Justice Mennin in Manhattan Supreme
Court after claiming to a probation officer before sentencing that she
simply �ran into� the victim.

�I am really concerned by your apparent inability to take responsibility
for your actions,� the judge said.

Before the judge�s ruling, Pazienza, wearing a baggy tan prison jacket,
needed to apologize twice to the court because her first attempt � which
lasted a mere 10 seconds � only addressed how sorry she felt for what
happened on the night of the fatal shove.

Her second apology came after her lawyer, Arthur Aidala, nudged her to say more.

�I never should have pushed anybody, and I�m so sorry,� Pazienza said in
her second try through tears. �I wish I could take it back but God doesn�t
turn back the clocks. I�m just so sorry.�

Gustern�s grandson, AJ Maier Gustern, said after court that he felt
Pazienza�s apology wasn�t sincere � and that she only said it to make
herself look good.

�She�s squirm and squirm and squirm,� Gustern said. �She just doesn�t seem
like she is even maybe capable of accepting responsibility.�

During Pazienza�s speech, a grieving Gustern sat frozen like a statue.

In his victim impact statement, he cursed Pazienza and said she ruined
several pleasures in his life, such as voice lessons from his grandma �
and that New York City will never be the same for him.

�My baba felt safe in this city � even late at night � and you�ve ruined
that,� he said.

Pazienza was out celebrating her upcoming nuptials with her fianc� at West
28th Street when the pair were tossed out of Chelsea Park because the
green space was closing, prosecutors have said.

The drunk and irate 5-foot-7 Pazienza then had a hissy fit � tossing her
food at her beau before defiantly crossing the street.

That�s when she aggressively shoved Gustern, a 4-foot-11, 100-pound
elderly woman. She then callously walked away like nothing happened as the grandma bled from her head, according to the DA�s office.

Barbara Bleier, a friend and student of Gustern�s, identified herself
after the sentencing as the friend that Gustern ran into in her last
moments of consciousness after the attack

�What [Pazienza] said is the usual cop out for an apology. She said �I�m
sorry it happened.� It didn�t happen; she happened.�

Meanwhile, Pazienza�s parents � who were dressed for a funeral � were
herded out of the courtroom by Aidala, neither stopping for a moment to
take questions.
