Days after a horrific incident on the New York City subway, the woman burned alive by an alleged illegal immigrant has been identified as 61-year-old Debrina Kawam from Toms River, New Jersey. Police had initially struggled to identify the victim due to the extent of her burns, which left her unrecognisable. Kawam, a former business and marketing manager at Lily Pharmacy, was asleep on the subway when a man set her on fire near Brooklyn on December 22. Eyewitnesses say the suspect watched as she burned, unable to intervene. A Facebook profile matching her identity revealed that Kawam studied business and marketing at Montclair State University in 1991.
