Mackenzie Shirilla legal appeals process

Overview

Mackenzie Shirilla, convicted for the July 2022 deaths of Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan during a car crash in Strongsville, Ohio, has exhausted her state-level appeals. The Ohio Supreme Court denied her motion for reconsideration, effectively concluding the state-level process.

Prosecutors previously argued that Shirilla intentionally drove her vehicle into a building at approximately 100 mph, noting a lack of braking before impact. Shirilla’s defense has contended that a medical condition, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), may have caused her to lose consciousness.

While state appeals have concluded, her legal team has moved the case to federal court, filing a writ of habeas corpus alleging violations of her constitutional rights to due process.
