The sleeping subway passenger who was burned to death on a Brooklyn F
train had aspirations to be a flight attendant and was known for her
ômillion dollar smile,ö according to her high school yearbook biography.

Debrina Kawam, known to her classmates as ôDebbieö or ôDeb,ö graduated
from Passaic Valley Regional HS in Little Falls, New Jersey, in 1985, The
New York Times reported.

Kawam, 57, later fell on hard times: Sources said she was living in New
York City homeless shelters from September until Dec. 2.

Her horrific death shocked the city ù and the nation.

Illegal Guatemalan immigrant Sebastian Zapeta-Calil is charged with
setting her on fire around 7:30 a.m. Dec. 22 on an F train in the
Stillwell Avenue-Coney Island station.

She was asleep on the train when she was set ablaze, video shows.

Kawam, who was originally from Toms River, said her memories at the public school were participating in freshman and sophomore cheerleading and that
her secret ambition was ôto party forever.ö

She signed off her biography thanking her parents ôfor everything.ö

Kawam was one of three students who earned the superlative of ômillion
dollar smileö and ômost punk,ö according to the outlet.

KawamÆs body was IDÆd through fingerprints more than a week after the
horrific tragedy.

Zapeta-Calil, 33, who was deported in 2018 but sneaked back into the US,
was indicted on first- and second-degree murder and one count of arson on
Dec. 27.

He claimed he was too drunk and didnÆt remember the attack.

Zapeta-Calil faces up to life in prison without the possibility of parole
if heÆs convicted on the top count of first-degree murder, Brooklyn
District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said.

ôIt is the most serious statute in New York state law, and my office is
very confident about the evidence in this case and our ability to hold
Zapeta accountable for his dastardly deeds,ö Gonzalez said.

Toms River resident Olga Corpion had purchased the house KawamÆs mother
once lived in and said she met Debrina shortly after Corpion moved into
the neighborhood in May.

ôShe said, æHi, my name is Debrina, and I want to go see my mom. My mother lives here. I want to talk to her,Æö Corpion told The Post.

ôShe looked like she was in her 50s, so right away I assumed she was not
well, because she didnÆt know her mom had moved.

ôIÆm in shock that she was standing right here and then I found out she
died so horribly.ö

November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump. We look
forward to America being great again.

The disease known as Kamala Harris has been effectively treated and
eradicated.

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that
stupid people won't be offended.

Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem. It has none.

Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
fiasco, President Trump.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
queer liberal democrat donors.
