    1. TL;DR

      * Mackenzie Shirilla will remain in prison for the murder of her boyfriend Dominic Russo and friend Davion Flanagan.
      * The 21-year-old, whose involvement in a deadly 2022 car crash was documented in Netflix’s *The Crash*, was denied an appeal by the Supreme Court of Ohio, according to legal documents obtained by E! News.
      * Shirilla filed a notice of appeal earlier this year, with her legal team saying her case “presents substantial constitutional questions and matters of great public and great general interest” after her post-conviction relief petition was rejected due to being filed one day late from her deadline.
      * In response, prosecutors argued in a May filing that Shirilla’s appeal “fails to present an issue of public or great general interest,” saying her claim “concerns only the untimely filing of a post-conviction petition due to the mistake of counsel.”
      * Ultimately, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Ohio Sharon L. Kennedy refused to review Shirilla’s case, writing in a June 23 decision that she “declines to accept jurisdiction of the appeal.”

      She came off so inauthentic in that interview of her in prison. Like she really does not give a shit that people died. Like never even saw a flash of actual emotion or humanity.

    3. Coached, performative and inauthentic – also tone deaf, with that hairdo.

      Her entire legal defense is ‘I blacked out, I cannot recall’. Yikes.

      “Of Netflix’s The Crash.”

      You know what she’s also know for instead of the documentary about the crash?

      The actual crash.

      I know it’s entertainment news but thats such a hilarious way to refer to this woman, like if she is famous for appearing in a Netflix movie and not for the double murder she committed that caused her to be featured in a Netflix movie.

    5. It is wild to me that the very first consequence this young woman encountered in her entire life arrived courtesy of the criminal justice system, and not her fucking parents.
