Hell on Wheels: The Mackenzie Shirilla Case (Pt. 2)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We're back with part two, and this is where the "accident" story starts to fall apart.
We pick up right after the July 31, 2022 crash in Strongsville, Ohio that killed Dominic "Dom" Russo and Davion Flanagan, and we walk through how this case went from a tragic wreck to murder charges. The turning point is the evidence, and trust us, there's a lot of it.
We dig into what the car itself revealed, what investigators pieced together from the days leading up to the crash, and a hospital recording that had everyone talking. Then we get into the trial, the verdict, the sentence, and the defense that tried to explain it all away.
We also talk through the Netflix documentary, her continued claims of innocence, and where the two of us land on intent and punishment, because we don't see this one exactly the same way.
That's a wrap on "Hell on Wheels." Thank you for sticking with us through both parts.

A note on Davion: his family started the Davion Flanagan Memorial Fund, a 501c3 nonprofit, to help others chase the dream he never got to, attending barber school. You can support the scholarship at gofundme.com/f/davion-flanagan, or find the Davion Flanagan Memorial Fund on Facebook.
This case also touches on domestic violence. If any of it hits close to home, you're not alone. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is available 24/7 at 1-800-799-7233, or you can text START to 88788.
