She was convicted in February of attempted murder, assault, unlawful imprisonment and petit larceny in connection with the attempted fatal poisoning, Queens County District Attorney Melinda Katz announced in a previous news release. She faces five years of supervision after her release from prison. "A ruthless and calculating con artist is going to prison for a long time for trying to murder her way to personal profit and gain," Katz said Wednesday in a news release. "Thankfully, the victim survived the attack on her life and we were able to deliver justice to her." Speaking in court before the judge handed down the sentence, Tsvyk, 35, said, "God gave me life when Viktoria Nasyrova tried to end my life," CBS News reports. "For her, it was an easy thing to try and take the life of another person. "It was easy thing to gain the trust of another person and then take everything from that person," Tsvyk continued. "It was easy for her to steal. It was easy for her to kill." In the summer of 2016, Nasyrova went to Tsvyk's home in Forest Hills, Queens, for an eyelash touch up and brought her a box of cheesecake as a gift. She offered her a slice that was tainted with phenazepam — a powerful tranquilizer — after eating two poison-free pieces herself, prosecutors said.
