Trial of Strongsville teen accused of murder in deadly car crash continues

- Wednesday was day three in the trial of the Strongsville teen charged with murder in a deadly crash that occurred last July. It was arguably the most emotional day in the court room thus far.
Mackenzie Shirilla, 18, faces multiple charges including murder, felonious assault and aggravated vehicular homicide. Shirilla, who was 17 at the time of the incident, is accused of intentionally crashing a vehicle with her 20-year-old boyfriend Dominic Russo and his 19-year-old friend Davion Flanagan in the car. Both passengers died.
The prosecution says she was going 100 miles per hour when she went off the road and crashed into a building near the intersection of Progress and Alameda Drives in northwest Strongsville at 6:15 a.m. on July 31, 2022. Many tears were shed in the courtroom Wednesday as prosecutors played surveillance video of the crash multiple times and showed autopsy photos of the two victims.
Shirilla appeared distraught as she wiped her eyes with a tissue, and Dominic Russo's mother even removed herself from the courtroom.

This young reporter actually answered all the questions I had about this. So rare and very well done!
Local news are more reliable than national news.
He’s literally reading a script
@@Zaqpedhe read it well.
@@ZaqpedYou know that's how television works, right?
@@youropionmattersnot captain obvious over here
This is sad. At 19, I was in a similar crash and thank God I survived. A few friends in the car didn’t walk away the same. 1 was in a coma and woke up to a different life with a metal plate holding up his eye socket and mentally challenged. A few others with broken body parts. All because the driver thought it was funny to speed and swerve left and right. He thought nothing could happen because there were no other cars on the street. But he hit a tall sidewalk going 100mph, the car flew up and eventually crashed into a tree. Before we crashed, I tried stopping him. I begged him. I hit him. I tried steering from the back seat. He just kept laughing and going faster and serving more. The investigators said he tried to kill us because there was no evidence that he ever tried to use his brakes. I moved away and tried forgetting it all, even his name. I’m in my 30’s now and This case just brought it all back to memory. So this girl and anyone else driving reckless like this deserves life in prison for their negligence.
It was premeditated she rehearsed the murder before, she even told people what she was going to do, how is it reckless?
@@milibibi2152Premeditated or not, her driving was reckless. So the only word missing is intentionally driving reckless. Kind of picking, semantics. The point is people who put others at risk by their driving are wrong and should be punished.
@@janelle009 no she did not intentionaly driving reckless she used her car the same way somebody could use a gun for a premeditated shooting. It's like saying she intentionaly shooting reckless. It's call murder and she was charged for murder and not intentionaly driving reckless. Don't start to twist the reality.
I am so sorry that happened to you. I pray you get the relief from this tragedy you deserve. I pray God continues to watch over you.
That sounds like a horrible experience to have gone through. And it sounds like you perhaps keep going through it. It certainly sounds traumatic and I hope you have access to any kind of resources you need to help you live your life moving forward.

How the heck did she survive? The mother’s of these boys…geez ☹️
she’s one lucky bastard
but not no more cause she’s going to jail
Sometimes when being under the influence of a substance. Your body doesn’t get that shock effect when getting into an accident. That’s why a lot of drunk drivers live through these horrifying scenes. But I do believe God had other plans for her.
The guilty usually survives its the good ones that fall victim
The driver survives most of the times i dunno why ..? Weird but it happens alot.

She deserves longer than that since she is being tried as an adult. Those poor boys lost their lives but Her survival at least gives them some justice.

One of the best reporting. Great coverage!
The crash happened about 5:30 a.m. July 31, 2022, at a 250,000-square-foot building in Strongsville’s Progress Drive Business Park. Shirilla turned slowly onto Alameda Drive from Pearl Road and then floored her 2018 Toyota Camry down the three-quarter-mile street until it reached 100 mph, according to surveillance video and data from the car’s computer system.
The steering wheel jerked to the right, then to the left, and the airbags deployed seconds before the car jumped the curb and slammed into the business.
A passerby spotted the crash nearly 45 minutes later and called police, who found Russo and Flanagan dead. Shirilla was trapped in the driver’s seat with one of her fuzzy Prada slippers stuck to the accelerator, and firefighters pried her out.
Is it just me or does she look like one of those girls that could have "acted ghetto"? Like the waste of oxygen "catch me outside girl".
💛! I AM GLAD SHE WAS FOUND GUILTY BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN HIT BY A CAR SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST & EVEN BY A TOW TRUCK "HIT & RUN" WHILE I WAS IN A WHEELCHAIR. PEOPLE NEED TO BE PUNISHED TO THE MAX FOR CARELESS ACTS! 19 & HER LIFE IS OVER. THIS NEEDS TO BE SHOWN TO TEENS EVERYWHERE

She is getting 15 to life. I don’t expect her to get out in 15.
A tragic case, and so unnecessary. The coverage in this piece was really well done!
Sad those two young men died at her expense. Condolences to the families.
I don't see how those two family members of here can be a witness unless they were present when the crash occurred? They can merely give a *testimony* about something, but not from witnessing the event.
There are different types of "witnesses", it doesn't necessarily mean someone who watched an event happen. For example, a medical examiner is called to the stand as an Expert Witness.
Although Kaitor is young he looks like he's been doing the news for 35 years.
Crazy how she survived and able to still walk.
I saw where some people were calling this a accident. It wasn’t. She purposely turned her car down a street, that she was familiar with, and put the pedal to the floor, and crashed into a wall. The video doesn’t lie! The expert that examined the car afterwards, said that she didn’t even attempt to hit the breaks. Everyone makes mistakes. And I know she’s 19 or 20. But if you watch other videos of her hearings in court, she seemed like she couldn’t care less. She would smirk, and just seemed so bored. Even at her first appearance. Of course during her trial, when she was in front of the Judge who was going to decide what charges she was guilty of, it was a different story. Her tears were for herself. The judge made the right decision.
I believe that her boyfriend was going to break up with her, or made her mad or jealous, and she made a horrible, and stupid decision that has caused more pain than can be put into words. I think she’s like a younger version of Jodi Arias.
@@billwilson5341 Yes, I will. I just found a few links from the news, and the link that shows the judge telling her the verdicts. I think that she really thought she was going to get a slap on the wrist. I just heard about this case. It’s crazy, and really sad. I’ll give you the links I found. Her sentencing is Monday, I think.

I am wondering how she didn't died, did she planned to killed the two others but not die? I am thinking she was trying to die as well?
@@laurenmay2098 I agree. Either she planned to die as well, or it was never a murder.
She wanted to die, but instead lost two people she cared about and will spend many many years thinking about it while staring at cement. Justice indeed.
Amazing reporting.
I had to get my vehicle from the tow shop once after it had been recovered from being stolen. While I was there feeling upset about the situation, I saw this woman get out of a car beside me & she was sobbing uncontrollably. I just somehow knew it was due to the loss of a spouse or (more likely) a child. The latter was true. At that point, i didn’t even care about my car. I wanted so bad as a parent to hug this woman & just cry with her. Her son’s car looked completely destroyed just like the Camry in this case. How Mackenzie walked away from that is beyond me. As a parent, I just know that there’s nothing worse that could ever happen in life than losing a child. Thank God that i don’t know that pain. I doubt I’d survive it. It’s probably for the best that Mackenzie will likely never know what it’s like to have a child
It’s sad how everyone is making excuses for the murderer. She intentionally killed those boys. She needs life. My heart goes for the victims families
everyone? who else besides her parents and legal counsel is making excuses?
Great presentation from the young man
Only facing 15 years?... seems a man would be facing a much longer sentence if he killed his girlfriend and her friend...
It is 15 to life.
@GH-oi2jf Yes... and if a man did the same do you think it'd be 15 to life or more?
How TF is she still alive 😮 omfg!
It’s always the driver that survives
I don't know !! That car was a mess
@@susangray6259true. I witnessed it first hand. Two friends exit the car after accident, while they tried to help driver, another car drove right thru them. The driver walked out cryin like a b1tch.
These dudes seem like some solid reporters. I hope we have that in DFW but we will see.
Man, this kind of reporting is nostalgic. Just clear & concise information, no political narrative or biases like the news now smh
The young reporter speaks such in a nice way, answered all my questions as well, he needs to be an anchor one day!
Came to say the reporting is great. Happy to see others agree
The defence may say that the boyfriend may have 'pulled the wheel'. But doesn't explain how her foot was putting enough pressure on the accelerator to be 'driving' the car at 100 mph!
What is the evidence against her? I understand she didn’t brake, and she was going 100mph. But how did this go from vehicular manslaughter or similar. To her intentionally wanting these men dead? Just heard about this case today, and can’t find much.
This is the first time I’m seeing it as well. Something seems off though!
She said she wanted them dead in hospital.
I agree. It seems very one sided . This girl clearly shows remorse for the accident and it seems she may have acted in the heat of the moment but we also don’t know if one of the passengers were being aggressive towards her or if she was intending to get out of a bad situation. Where are the details? There are two sides to every story and this does not add up. Is it possible someone pushed her foot on the accelerator? Who knows. No one was in that car that survived except the girl and and I’ve also read that she doesn’t have a lot of memory of what happened before hand. I think she should do some time but this verdict is absolutely over the top. There are cold blooded pre meditated murderers that do less time. I know of kids that have been killed while other kids were driving and doing stupid stuff and the parents of the victims didn’t press charges. Because all the kids involved were guilty of doing stupid stuff and accidents happen. The consequences and lifetime of guilt is enough. She needs professional counseling for sure. It is sad these boys lost their lives but also what we’re they doing with a 17 yr old in the first place? Parents of the victims seem to be pointing the fingers when their kids may have been just as guilty. If I’m wrong. I want facts besides the car speeding with no sign of breaking. I have known tons of guys back in HS that use to do that crap all the time.
@@taracheri7 You gotta watch the sentancing videos and pick it up from there. THere is a lot of backstory to this one and clear premeditation.
I’m trying to find all the info I can but half the videos are muted and no volume. I can’t find any documents on it. . How do they know it was premeditated? Just driving by a location doesn’t mean anything. We use to cruise in hs and drive by the same places all the time. Pretty sure kids still drive around cruising all the time.
Good reporting.
Can't help but be amazed of how safe cars have gotten. Wow
She was found guilty on ALL charges.
Isn’t it weird how the drivers in these terrible crashes always survive? Everyone else dies, but the driver walks away. Like drunk drivers. It seems the majority of them survive, while the innocent people involved never survive. It is not fair.

Disgusting that the defence try to palm off her actions by saying her boyfriend may have pulled the steering wheel…..blaming a dead youth for the murderous actions of a bratty girl. Judge nailed it when finding her guilty on murder charges. The fact she desecrated a church should also be considered when judging this brat….she was obviously raised wrong.

I mean, they're lawyers? Not like they had many other options available seeing how she purposely killed 2 people with overwhelming evidence supporting it.
Ok the church thing is irrelevant
Who gives a fuck about the church. Not a single person should be judged over something to do with a man made concept because you or anyone else’s feeling for an inanimate object got hurt. Fuck “god” and fuck the church
And you clearly don’t know how defenses work. They’re obviously going to try and push for other reasons why something happened regardless of the situation and if someone is in fact guilty. Some of you people have zero clue how anything in the world works
I don’t see why that is bad maybe she didn’t purposely did just because you want a conviction

Why did her attorney go for a bench trial?
Because he's an idiot?
Why do you think it's up to the attorney? It's not.
@@auemmjee
The attorney very likely suggested it. Or do you think the teenage girl thought of it herself? She likely never knew it was an option.
The fact that she survived isa testimony to how incredibly well engineered modern cars are.
best reporter , hope to see more from him
How can she be charged ss an adult. She is not!
Certain crimes that people commit are serious enough to be tried as an adult. She knew what she was doing. She apparently had checked out the location she wanted to do this. So that means she planned it out which gets her 1st degree murder. I agree she should have been tried as an adult other wise she would have gotten very little punishment. Not fair after killing two people
@ronmarvicsin7709 OK. So bending the rules to deliver a harsher sentence is fine.
If a 17 year old consents to sex, then, should not the rules be bent to consider them adults?
What's the point of legal definitions of adulthood existing if they can be ignored?
It's like the notion of cruel and unusual punishment. Supposedly illegal in the US, but practised inside every Supermax.

This should have been a jury trial. Attorney should have demanded this.
She chose a judge trial. You have the choice when your charged at this level in any Court. Normally Judge trials are better for leniency if there is any question of Beyond reasonable doubt, which in this case would have been an issue if she would not have admitted she wanted to kill herself to the ER Doctor. It's a sad case all around. 3 young people's lives are gone. She will spend the rest of her life in jail.

i was in a incident just like this, thankfully a crash never happened. But my girlfriend and I were in her Camaro arguing while she was driving. She hit the gas and said i will kill us both, she was traveling about 100 mph on a back road. Actions have consequences
Hopefully lots of Teenagers see this story and her conviction video as well....Everyone needs to be aware that when you are violating the law (Speeding) and your actions cause the death of someone else, you CAN be charged for murder and or negligent homicide.
Actually, negligence wasn't the issue. If it were negligence, the charge would have been involuntary manslaughter, not murder. The judge found her guilty of murder because the evidence clearly showed that it was intentional. According to the ruling, she didn't drive too fast for a thrill and lose control of the car, she was actually trying to get everyone in the car killed (most likely her own survival wasn't part of the plan)

EMDs have NEVER been held to the standard of actual doctors under the AMA... And there has NEVER been a degree of confidentiality that they are held to... They are trauma experts and are exempt from HIPAA just like 911 is... They are there to do EVERYTHING they can to ensure a person survives at ALL cost within the law!
doesnt matter they are still bound by hippa even nurses as well as simple receptionists are bound by that why would medics be any different

@@johnhamburn3845 actually medical professionals are mandated reporters. You are required to report confessions of homicide, thoughts of homicide, and child abuse to authorities.
They aren't doctors. Big difference.
Strongsville police and Cuyahoga County prosecutors did not charge her with driving under the influence, even though Shirilla had THC in her blood above the legal limit under Ohio law. They, instead, chose to pursue murder charges.
Because what she did was an intentional act and had nothing to do with THC in her system.
She had no regard for the other two passengers in her car her actions resulted in the death of two people
@@scottprather5645As of THC doesn't impair people's cognitive abilities.
@@youropionmattersnot It can't make you do things you don't want to do.
So let's expand your thought... somebody smokes a bunch of weed and goes and robs a liquor store and kills someone. So they're not guilty because they're under the influence of that drug? Have we found a free pass for criminal behavior??
Reaching a speed of 100 mph in a residential neighborhood was an accident?
Cmon
Parents 19 year should sit and watch this together. A mistake can ruin your life.
20 years old and 17 barely legal
Ohio age of consent is 16
@@jimwerther
That’s good to know.
It’s crazy how that makes a difference lol just because it’s legal does not mean he shouldn’t have found someone closer to his age
@@voguekidd
20 and 17 is not that far apart, depending on the maturity of those involved.
How the hell did Shirilla not die in this crash when the 2 boys did????? She is like Bruce Willis in "Unbreakable", maybe she is a super hero?????
My children’s father drove on to the exit ramp of a freeway were not sure if he did it on purpose or not but he hit another car head on not only killing himself but also killed the young man who was driving home from work. They don’t always survive. Usually in a alcoholic state getting into an accident you’re not going to get as hurt as you would being sober because your body is relaxed in the alcoholic state. If someone knows they’re going to crash their car their first Instinct is to tighten their body which will cause a lot more damage. RIP to those young men.
The nerve for her to show bewilderment. With her fake tears.
Why is there a go fund me for this girl.?
There is? Has she actually raised any money? I hope not.
@@jimwerther there sure was. I just went to the site and it is down now. I am not sure but,I think they raised a little over 30,000.Someone from go fund me probably took it down or her family did. It wasn't for her case it was for her accident,medical so they say. I was shocked they raised that money for her when she intended to hurt them which ended in murder.
‘Judge will make HIS ruling’ - even though it’s a female judge and she’s even in the video you showed. Top journalism 👌
Lol! I was wondering about that. Odd that both anchors whiffed on that one. Also, the black guy explained the facts well, but sounded like he was making a hostage tape.
This girl is insane ! 100 mph ! 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
The video of the crash is so heartbreaking knowing that 2 young lives will be stolen..
So this isn’t a dui? I’m trying to figure out why they concluded that she intended to kill them.
@Harry__Morganyeah, drunk people usually don't know a crash is about to happen, so not doing anything to avoid something they don't know is happening would be what you'd expect. Your comment here is ridiculous 😂😅😊
She also took the route a day before, as if planning it...she didn't brake, a normal reaction when having an accident...and that she planned a route with no one around for hours. The accident was at 1am and they weren't found till 5am, lessening chances of survival. It unfortunately does look like murder when you take it all into account
It was in industrial area with no one about in those hours
@@pinkyalmeroth3702 Really?!?! Humm, I drive secluded routes everyday and I drive the same roads often......like EVERYDAY!!! Once again, drunk people don't even realize they're having an accident, so are you expecting someone to react to something they don't even know is happening?!?!? HOLY SHIT, WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS UTTER INSANITY AND I PRAY TO GOD TO NEVER HAVE YOU ON A JURY!!! YOU'RE CREATING A SCENARIO OUT OF THIN AIR THATS ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW OR PROVE!!!! WOW!!! EVERYBODY LOVES TO PLAY INSPECTOR CLUESO WHEN THEY GET ON A JURY AND THIS IS WHY SO MANY PEOPLE GET TRUMPED UP, THIS IS PROBABLY WHY THE ATTORNEY TOOK A BENCH TRIAL, BUT THAT BACKFIRED TOO!!!
I lost control of a vehicle at 15yrs old while driving my boyfriends new truck. We were headed up into a mountain and as I turned a sharp curve the road suddenly went from paved to gravel. The steering wheel was spinning left, then right, and there was no way to control it. There was a steep 80 ft cliff on my left and woods to my right, and I prayed that we wouldn't go over the cliff. The truck spun in a circle and crashed into the trees sending my boyfriends head through the windshield. He had to have surgery to his skull. My bladder was injured. It traumatized me for years, but it was an accident. What if he had died? This could have been me, with my entire life destroyed forever. And, putting your foot on the breaks when your vehicle is out of control doesn't do a thing to stop the car. If you have never been in that situation you wouldn't know that. That's why it is called, "losing control", because you have absolutely nothing you can do to stop it, until it crashes.
There is no way in a million years that anyone can prove beyond reasonable doubt that this was murder I.e. Premeditated It's manslaughter. One can also argue that it was attempted suicide. The human mind is a scary place at times and some people are victims of themselves. It's often (but not always) a chemical imbalance, they don't think straight To those who think a long jail sentence will deter others should think again. I.e It didn't prevent this girl from doing what she did and that's common with 95% of crime. Example: The death penalty and whole life sentences are rife in the USA yet there are many many thousands of murders there every year, it didn't deter those killers. I would give the girl 12 months in jail. Either way, 1 year, 5 years or a full life sentence doesn't bring the dead back. The father of one of the deceased boys doesn't want the girl to have a long sentence either.
Well, in the days prior she threatened to do exactly what she def was premeditating her actions
if she didnt intentionally crash the car then why is she charged with murder? Never heard of that in a vehicular case.
She intentionally crashed the car.
