1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,879
Speaker 1: Sword and Scale contains adult themes and violence, and is

2
00:00:03,919 --> 00:00:08,519
not intended for all audiences. Listener discretion is advised.

3
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,719
Speaker 2: Rady, we got at least two occupants in here. No

4
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:22,079
one's moving, Oh my god.

5
00:00:23,039 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to season eleven, episode two hundred and

6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,719
seventy four of Sword and Scale.

7
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 3: A show that reveals that.

8
00:00:29,839 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: The worst monsters are real. Have you ever been unfortunate

9
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:32,560
enough to have seen HBO's show Euphoria? No good on you. Well,

10
00:01:33,359 --> 00:01:36,879
if you haven't, let.

11
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 3: Me break it down for you.

12
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, it's relevant. It's relevant. Just just follow along, trust me.

13
00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:47,280
Euphoria is a show about a bunch of American high

14
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,719
schoolers and all the drama in their lives, which you

15
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:56,359
know is always a lot, so plenty of material. The

16
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:02,000
show dives into each teen's dirty laudrey, let's say, connecting

17
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,799
them together along the way to create a shocking representation

18
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,719
of American teenage life in the twenty twenties. It's a

19
00:02:11,759 --> 00:02:15,879
show that seems to almost rely on shock value in

20
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,439
an age where it's difficult to shock most people, even

21
00:02:19,479 --> 00:02:22,560
if they're sitting on an electric chair. It's meant to

22
00:02:22,599 --> 00:02:28,599
be an over dramatization and viewers know that. But some

23
00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:34,400
people may not realize is that, though it's shocking and hyperbolic,

24
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,960
it seems to accurately represent many American teens these days.

25
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:47,919
Just maybe the shockingly adult content in Euphoria is depicting reality,

26
00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:55,080
art imitating life, and vice versa. But forget about the

27
00:02:55,159 --> 00:02:58,360
cast of Euphoria for a second, because we're going to

28
00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:02,840
replace them with some real life examples, real life people.

29
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,759
This case is much more shocking and much more horrible

30
00:03:08,439 --> 00:03:12,280
than any story HBO could come up with, and it

31
00:03:12,319 --> 00:03:36,080
takes place in a little place called Strongsville, Ohio. It

32
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,560
was a summer of twenty twenty two. The feeling of

33
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:43,280
freedom and newfound maturity was still fresh in the minds

34
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:48,439
of all the new graduates of Strongsville High School. Ohio

35
00:03:48,439 --> 00:03:50,960
tends to only have a few good months of really

36
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,599
nice warm weather out of the year. Otherwise it's just

37
00:03:54,639 --> 00:03:57,879
a miserable place, you know, the feeling of those hot,

38
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:02,840
muggy summer nights. Yeah, Ohio doesn't get too many of those,

39
00:04:03,719 --> 00:04:07,319
not like Texas. During the very last weekend of July,

40
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,240
the new graduates continued to take advantage of all the

41
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:15,479
quote unquote grad parties their friends had invited them to.

42
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,079
In other words, they were going to your average house party,

43
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,959
the kind where no parents are around, the kind of

44
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,720
risky business type shenanigans occur. I don't know why that

45
00:04:26,759 --> 00:04:28,480
movie stuck out with me so much as a kid,

46
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:33,240
Probably because it was about dirty adult things.

47
00:04:33,639 --> 00:04:34,079
Speaker 4: I don't know.

48
00:04:35,319 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: For Paul, a new graduate, this weekend was the perfect

49
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:42,040
time to host a party of his own. His parents

50
00:04:42,079 --> 00:04:45,120
were out of town, and though he says it wasn't

51
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:49,279
a party per se, there were seven rowdy teens in

52
00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:54,680
the house all night with no supervision. That kind of

53
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:55,800
sounds like a party to me.

54
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 5: So Zory I was pretty tired, most of us pret

55
00:05:00,079 --> 00:05:02,639
I kind of didn't really want to hang out that night,

56
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,639
but my parents weren't home, so we were going to anyway,

57
00:05:06,399 --> 00:05:09,759
and I had six people over, So in my opinion,

58
00:05:09,879 --> 00:05:13,240
that was not a party. There was no party activities

59
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,000
going on because I don't have enough friends to throw binger.

60
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:17,959
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be honest.

61
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 5: So at around eleven, Rosie, Nina, and Landon show up together.

62
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,800
They show up first because Rosie lives nearby, so she

63
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:33,639
picked them up, so they showed up, and then Kenzie

64
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:34,920
Dom and Davion.

65
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 4: They were late. They were late to come here. They

66
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,079
came at around.

67
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 5: Midnight, maybe some around that time, because they were already

68
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,120
at a grab party. But they were already there. They

69
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,120
weren't there for long. I don't know what they did there,

70
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,319
but they weren't there for long.

71
00:05:51,319 --> 00:05:54,319
Speaker 1: Here's Landon, one of the kids who arrived earlier in

72
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,920
the night. He's talking about nineteen year old Daveyon Flan again,

73
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,360
who arrived closer to midnight, alongside the other two kids,

74
00:06:03,519 --> 00:06:08,720
twenty year old Dominic Russo and seventeen year old Mackenzie Shrilla.

75
00:06:09,399 --> 00:06:13,399
Speaker 6: We weren't like the closest back in the elementary I were. Yeah,

76
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,720
we weren't the closest. I'd say about middle school. That's

77
00:06:16,759 --> 00:06:18,759
when we got really We got really close in middle

78
00:06:18,759 --> 00:06:22,759
school and then high school year he decided to join football,

79
00:06:22,879 --> 00:06:25,519
so that brought us even closer. I think what made

80
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,759
us the closest was COVID. COVID made us really close.

81
00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:31,800
We would we would stay up all ninety and they

82
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,399
would all stay up, play my Warfare all the time

83
00:06:34,879 --> 00:06:37,519
and just talk about school, talk about football all that stuff.

84
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,639
Speaker 4: That's where I guess that's where we're like.

85
00:06:39,639 --> 00:06:42,079
Speaker 6: We got really really close at and that's when we

86
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,399
started hanging out every day.

87
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,319
Speaker 4: I started treating my brother to me. He was one

88
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:47,439
of my best friends.

89
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 1: Landon was closer friends with davey On than the host

90
00:06:51,759 --> 00:06:55,680
of the party, Paul. Paul knew seventeen year old Kenzie

91
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,120
the best. She was the one that he had invited,

92
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,000
but of course she knew she was welcome to bring

93
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,240
along her boyfriend Dominic and their friend Davion, who lived

94
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,519
with them at the time.

95
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,519
Speaker 5: So I started being I started being's actual friends with

96
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:17,439
ten Zie senior beer because we both did homecoming courts

97
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,279
together and I thought, if I was gonna win Homecoming Kings,

98
00:07:21,279 --> 00:07:24,399
she'll win Queen with me. We didn't win, so dying,

99
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,079
So yeah, she's made me. She like made me actually

100
00:07:29,079 --> 00:07:32,879
confident in myself that year. So yeah, that's when we

101
00:07:32,959 --> 00:07:35,600
kind of became friends. I was never really friends with

102
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,120
dom but like she could bring her boyfriend anywhere I

103
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:40,079
don't mind.

104
00:07:40,519 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 4: And then Davion. You probably know this.

105
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 5: Davion lived with them, so they could ring Daviyon and

106
00:07:46,319 --> 00:07:47,399
everyone loves Daviyon.

107
00:07:48,279 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 6: Like whenever he walked in the room, no matter if

108
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,480
he was down or not, he was making you smile.

109
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,079
Speaker 4: You love the kid to death.

110
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,319
Speaker 1: Nineteen year old Davion Flanagain was popular and well liked

111
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,319
at home, though he was starting to have some issues.

112
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,720
He and his sisters were adopted by the Flanagan family

113
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,360
when they were young kids, and as teenagers tend to

114
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,600
do when they reach a certain age, Davion started to

115
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,560
butt heads with his parents.

116
00:08:17,079 --> 00:08:20,199
Speaker 4: So he came to me one day and he was

117
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:20,680
asking me.

118
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,079
Speaker 6: He was like, hey, I could I stay at your

119
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,879
house for a week And I was like, yeah, like,

120
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:24,639
no problem.

121
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,519
Speaker 4: I got a whole extra room for you. Don't worry

122
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:26,959
about it.

123
00:08:27,319 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 6: And when he came and he stayed there, ended up

124
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,360
saying he ended up signing it was gonna be a

125
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,039
lot more long term, and I.

126
00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:39,159
Speaker 4: Knew he got kicked out. We would always be out.

127
00:08:39,159 --> 00:08:39,919
We'd always go out.

128
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 6: I mean, somebody would take my mom's car and I

129
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,279
got caught fort doing that one time, but we would

130
00:08:44,279 --> 00:08:46,000
take my mom's car and he would take my car

131
00:08:46,039 --> 00:08:47,440
and my dad's call. We go out when we just

132
00:08:47,519 --> 00:08:50,600
drive and just talk talk about life, talk about his struggles,

133
00:08:50,639 --> 00:08:53,360
talk about my struggles. He was He was a very,

134
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,320
very very mentally mentally down person. He was down mentally bad,

135
00:08:57,519 --> 00:08:59,919
like he everything in his life. He thought he was

136
00:09:00,039 --> 00:09:03,360
on against him. He he felt like that nobody was

137
00:09:03,399 --> 00:09:05,320
there for me again, like no one had his back

138
00:09:05,519 --> 00:09:06,919
a lot of the time. So and he knew that

139
00:09:06,919 --> 00:09:09,600
I had his back forever, like he knew would always

140
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:10,120
have his back.

141
00:09:10,159 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 4: Man, but he just felt like I.

142
00:09:12,919 --> 00:09:14,919
Speaker 6: Can't remember what he would say about it, but the

143
00:09:15,399 --> 00:09:17,600
adopt him being a dominent party, Yeah, it was a

144
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,519
big factor, and that he felt like he just didn't

145
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:20,840
belong in the house.

146
00:09:20,919 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 4: And I know that Dom.

147
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 6: Knows Davy and they know each other's pack parties like that.

148
00:09:25,399 --> 00:09:28,039
Kenzie and Davan Row have always been close, like they

149
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:29,720
know each other. I know they've known each other since

150
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,960
like middle school. I knew before, right before I found

151
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,679
out they were living together, I knew that they were kind.

152
00:09:36,519 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 4: Of hanging out, they were kind of talking together.

153
00:09:38,159 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 6: Because another reason why they were cool is Dom had

154
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:42,159
a studio in his house.

155
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 4: Dom liked to make music and Daven love free. Laven

156
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:45,919
love making music.

157
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,879
Speaker 6: I was just dreamless to be a rapper, and so

158
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,759
Davan would always go over to Don's house to recording

159
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,840
the studio. I know Proctor has a studio, so they

160
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,159
would all not like a studio like Project doesn't have

161
00:09:56,159 --> 00:09:56,720
a full studio.

162
00:09:56,799 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 4: He just has like a little mic on a computer

163
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:58,679
and stuff.

164
00:09:58,799 --> 00:10:00,519
Speaker 6: But Dom actually has like a whole room with a

165
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,600
microphone and might stuff on the walls to keep the sounding.

166
00:10:04,039 --> 00:10:06,600
That was all like the special programming and stuff, and

167
00:10:06,639 --> 00:10:08,559
so I knew they got really close off of that, like.

168
00:10:08,519 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 4: Trying to make music together and stuff like that.

169
00:10:10,919 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 6: So I think ultimately that's how Davianna ended up staying

170
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,360
at Don's because Davion knew he would go over there

171
00:10:17,399 --> 00:10:19,440
and be able to use the studio whenever he wanted

172
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,200
to and just be cool with Donald.

173
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:27,279
Speaker 1: Twenty year old Dominic Russo was a quote unquote businessman

174
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,480
and rapper. I don't know what the fuck that means,

175
00:10:30,519 --> 00:10:34,039
but that's what he was, while his girlfriend's seventeen year

176
00:10:34,039 --> 00:10:38,440
old Mackenzie Shrilla, worked long, hard hours as a stay

177
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,080
at home girlfriend when she wasn't posting content to further

178
00:10:42,159 --> 00:10:47,840
her Instagram modeling career. So really just a solid pair

179
00:10:47,879 --> 00:10:48,960
of entrepreneurs here.

180
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 5: They got at my house at around midnight. We sived

181
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:59,000
there for a while and then around like one am

182
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,799
and it was called I wanted to call it a

183
00:11:01,919 --> 00:11:05,120
night because my car broke down. Wasn't having much of

184
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,759
a good night obviously, And right before I went to sleep,

185
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,240
Kenzy said you should go to sleep, because I'm probably

186
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,000
going to go to sleep too.

187
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 4: So I was like, Okay, that's not that bad.

188
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 5: So then I go upstairs at around one they're still

189
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,519
out and they're still watching I remember hearing South Park

190
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:23,480
I'm playing really loudly.

191
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 4: And then I.

192
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 5: Went downstairs again at two three am to peek sometime

193
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,080
like that, and I saw that I saw Kenzie asleep

194
00:11:35,159 --> 00:11:36,759
on my couch in my front room.

195
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,799
Speaker 6: I remember walking into that. Man was cuddling her, she

196
00:11:39,879 --> 00:11:42,320
was sleeping, Her head was on his lap. She was

197
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,399
wrapped up in this big fuzzy green pan blanket on

198
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:46,639
the front couch in the front room.

199
00:11:46,639 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 4: It's a big L shaped couch.

200
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 6: Because I was sitting in the corner and Daby was

201
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,919
sitting down by my legs, Kensey was sitting here, and

202
00:11:51,919 --> 00:11:53,679
then Don was soon at the end here, and so

203
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,240
she ended up sprawling out and he was sitting there cutting.

204
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 4: On her head, panting her head, making sure she was sleeping.

205
00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:58,279
Speaker 7: Good.

206
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 6: Way were laughing all night, we I know, Paul, he

207
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:07,240
wasn't around all night.

208
00:12:07,279 --> 00:12:08,039
Speaker 4: He was upstairs.

209
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 6: He wasn't even around all night. He Me and Davy

210
00:12:11,519 --> 00:12:16,200
were in the front room watching it was a great

211
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,279
white documentary about green white sharks. In the front room,

212
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,120
I know, back in the back all the girls were

213
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:22,799
back there. I think they were watching high school musical

214
00:12:22,879 --> 00:12:25,360
or something like that, because they were all screaming, laughing.

215
00:12:25,919 --> 00:12:28,360
But me and Dave were up there. I remember Kenzie

216
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,039
got mad at me because I ate over popcorn. She

217
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,720
walked away and ate over popcorn.

218
00:12:33,799 --> 00:12:37,759
Speaker 1: The teens smoked weed and apparently discussed doing shrooms that night,

219
00:12:37,799 --> 00:12:41,399
but decided against it. Everyone seemed to be having a

220
00:12:41,399 --> 00:12:46,559
good time. Eventually people started to fall asleep, and when Kenzie, Dominic,

221
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,360
and Davian awoke early in the morning, they gathered their

222
00:12:50,399 --> 00:12:52,039
things and left.

223
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 4: Kenzie and dom walked out together. Dom grabbed olver bags

224
00:12:55,639 --> 00:12:58,720
for her, and Don came to dabbed me up.

225
00:12:58,799 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 6: Kenji was like, hey, say buy it everyone, because Rosie

226
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,679
and Nina and them were sleeping in the back room.

227
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 4: I was up in the front room still and he was.

228
00:13:05,159 --> 00:13:06,840
She was like, hey, say bye everyone for us.

229
00:13:06,879 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 6: So we're like, okay, we will, And that's when Rosie

230
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,360
came walking up, gave Kenzie a hug, get down my

231
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,279
hug and was like bye, Like I know that.

232
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 4: Why should they leave so early?

233
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,639
Speaker 6: They usually do that, Like that's like a common thing

234
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,879
with everyone, Like I mean how many times, like we

235
00:13:18,919 --> 00:13:21,159
had people over our house, Like it's just a common

236
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,240
thing with us, younger.

237
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,879
Speaker 4: Teenagers like it. It's like as soon as you get up,

238
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,679
it's like you're gone, Like you were just leaving like

239
00:13:25,759 --> 00:13:28,799
five thirty in the morning. Yeah, go to work at.

240
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 8: Five o'clock in the morning. Really, couch is clear.

241
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,399
Speaker 4: I'm like yeah, it's like, well we'll end up, we'll

242
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:36,919
sleeping in.

243
00:13:37,039 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 6: Like as soon as you wake up in that early morning,

244
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,960
it's I want to move back to my.

245
00:13:40,919 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 8: Bed, So that that is common.

246
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 1: One thing struck Landing as odd as the trio left,

247
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:51,559
Davey and said something not quite out of character for him,

248
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,879
but something he didn't say very often.

249
00:13:55,799 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 6: It didn't seem like there was anything wrong with him,

250
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,360
nothing crazy. The only thing that really got me was

251
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,039
when he left. He left he was like I love you,

252
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:05,840
and I was like, I love you too, And that

253
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,360
was the first time he said that to me since

254
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:08,200
he lived with me.

255
00:14:08,799 --> 00:14:10,799
Speaker 4: So that's like that's what kind of threw me off.

256
00:14:10,919 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 6: I was like, all right, I love you too, you

257
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,480
know what I mean, come out and gave a give

258
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:16,919
him a Huggany walked out the door.

259
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:22,039
Speaker 1: They got into Mackenzie's black Toyota Camray and headed home.

260
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,480
It wasn't ten minutes after the trio left Paul's house

261
00:14:26,559 --> 00:14:32,039
that tragedy struck, and it hit them with a swift vengeance.

262
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,519
It was just after five point thirty in the morning.

263
00:14:36,399 --> 00:14:39,600
They drove for only a few minutes and found themselves

264
00:14:39,759 --> 00:14:43,120
on Progress Drive and at the end of that road

265
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:48,279
was a building called Plidco p l I d COO.

266
00:14:49,399 --> 00:14:53,080
It's a piping company. Instead of turning either right or

267
00:14:53,159 --> 00:14:57,279
left onto the road that paralleled the Plidco building, the

268
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:02,480
camera went straight, barreling through the company's large sign and

269
00:15:02,559 --> 00:15:06,960
into the corner of the massive brick structure. Davion was

270
00:15:07,039 --> 00:15:12,159
on his phone responding to a snapchat just moments before impact.

271
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,320
The three kids sat there in the mangled car until

272
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,799
the sun came up. With the help of the morning light,

273
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:36,799
someone noticed the partially hidden wreck Cash.

274
00:15:36,879 --> 00:15:42,879
Speaker 9: Yes, are you familiar where Progress coincides with Albion Road?

275
00:15:42,879 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 4: There in strong though yep.

276
00:15:45,039 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 10: Yeah, just across the street from from Progress building.

277
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,039
Speaker 4: There's a car that smashed up against the building.

278
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,559
Speaker 11: I didn't go up to it because I was on

279
00:15:54,639 --> 00:15:55,440
my motorcycle.

280
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:56,799
Speaker 4: I don't know.

281
00:15:56,799 --> 00:15:57,559
Speaker 3: I just sucked.

282
00:15:57,559 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 12: But they ran the curb.

283
00:15:58,519 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 4: I could see the They smashed the sign and hit

284
00:16:01,639 --> 00:16:02,440
the buildings.

285
00:16:03,799 --> 00:16:05,799
Speaker 13: Could you tell someone was in it?

286
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:06,879
Speaker 4: I didn't go up to it.

287
00:16:06,919 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 14: I was on my motorcycle.

288
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:08,639
Speaker 2: How long ago?

00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:11,119
going up to him.

335
00:20:11,759 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 4: Here's the worst crash I've ever seen.

336
00:20:13,559 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 2: I've got a bunch of oppers.

337
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,559
Speaker 1: Mackenzie was barely conscious, slumped over to her right because

338
00:20:21,559 --> 00:20:24,000
of the extensive damage to the car.

339
00:20:25,079 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 3: The dashboard was.

340
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 1: Crunched up and was trapping her. They didn't have identification

341
00:20:31,279 --> 00:20:34,279
for the other two just yet, but they did know

342
00:20:34,319 --> 00:20:36,720
that they need the help of the fire department and

343
00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:41,440
the jaws of life to remove all three from the

344
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:42,920
crumpled hunk of metal.

345
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 2: Did you try to pocket to them?

346
00:20:51,799 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 3: You know, Jesus, that's the worst I've ever seen. There's

347
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:58,079
nothing we can do right now.

348
00:20:58,160 --> 00:20:59,759
Speaker 4: Guys'll fire hers up.

349
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 8: I don't think it.

350
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 2: Now they're gone. They've breathing out of the ears routines.

351
00:21:08,559 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 1: In case you couldn't understand that, the officer whose bodycam

352
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:17,599
footage were listening to said they're bleeding out of the ears,

353
00:21:18,319 --> 00:21:23,839
before another officer replied, the driver has a chance. Just

354
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,640
a few minutes later, fire trucks arrived with their hydraulic

355
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:36,839
rescue equipment and they got to work right away.

356
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 2: What's your name here?

357
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 18: That's our driver.

358
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,079
Speaker 2: So one of her friends is naming Tom.

359
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:56,079
Speaker 4: I don't know which one was. Don't tell her.

360
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,160
Speaker 2: We need to get ideas in all of these people.

361
00:22:06,319 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 5: Any walllet on him pos Yes, I'm gonna grab it

362
00:22:10,799 --> 00:22:15,480
unless you guys want to grab it.

363
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:19,039
Speaker 2: And this is Davian Flannaga and I'm sewing there just

364
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:24,200
as him put his id on top of him.

365
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,599
Speaker 1: Dominic, who had been in the front passenger seat, passed

366
00:22:27,599 --> 00:22:31,519
away on impact. The right side of the car took

367
00:22:31,799 --> 00:22:35,799
most of the damage. Daveyon, who was originally sitting in

368
00:22:35,839 --> 00:22:39,599
the back seat, was found partially on the lap of Dominic.

369
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,599
The camera sat in a grassy area right next to

370
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,359
the building they had side swiped.

371
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,319
Speaker 2: How do you get is split in half from hitting

372
00:22:47,319 --> 00:22:50,839
the building here? It looks like this is where it split.

373
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,480
And to be honest with you, when you're coming there,

374
00:22:53,519 --> 00:22:55,839
you could barely see it from the sign. You can't

375
00:22:55,839 --> 00:22:59,400
barely see it. And how the person just cauled and

376
00:22:59,759 --> 00:23:01,440
ball and I'll never know, you know what I mean?

377
00:23:01,599 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 15: Like, Oh, that.

378
00:23:02,079 --> 00:23:06,279
Speaker 2: Carlo's really bad life. Flight's here and thanks he's here

379
00:23:06,319 --> 00:23:09,599
for her.

380
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,559
Speaker 1: It was still early in the morning, just after six

381
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:20,680
As Alameda Drive descended into organized chaos, Paul and his

382
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:26,359
friends were still sleeping off the party. Mackenzie, Dominic, and

383
00:23:26,599 --> 00:23:31,400
Davion's parents were all asleep in their beds, too, blissfully

384
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:35,359
unaware of the terrible news they were about to receive.

385
00:24:04,759 --> 00:24:07,920
Early in the morning of July thirty one, twenty twenty two,

386
00:24:08,799 --> 00:24:12,279
seventeen year old Mackenzie Shrilla, her boyfriend twenty year old

387
00:24:12,319 --> 00:24:16,240
Dominic Russo, and their friend, nineteen year old Davion Flynn

388
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:20,240
again headed home from a party. It was a short

389
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,160
drive and they didn't make it very far before Plidco

390
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:29,400
Piping Company's surveillance cameras caught footage of their vehicle barreling

391
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:35,440
into their company sign and into the building itself. While

392
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:39,160
paramedics waited with Mackenzie and the ambulance for a life

393
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:45,039
flight helicopter to land, another deputy called the coroner. After

394
00:24:45,079 --> 00:24:48,920
making a call and reporting the two fatalities, the officer

395
00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:52,640
told the paramedics not to say anything to McKenzie about

396
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,559
the status of her friends.

397
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 2: And we got a call about a car into a building.

398
00:24:57,839 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 18: When we got here, the car was split in half

399
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,200
and three people were trapped inside.

400
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 2: He put us back as well. Sorry, guys, two are gone,

401
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:16,599
one and being life flighted. As we speak, this is

402
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,799
gonna be just a nightmare of a day for this

403
00:25:18,839 --> 00:25:19,519
whole department.

404
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,279
Speaker 1: Mackenzie was transported to the hospital and the families of

405
00:25:24,319 --> 00:25:28,920
all three kids were notified about the accident. Soon the

406
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,480
news spread to the rest of the town, including all

407
00:25:32,519 --> 00:25:38,880
of Mackenzie's classmates. Several things then happened in relatively quick succession.

408
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,400
The crash scene and the car itself were both investigated.

409
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:48,519
Police found evidence on Dominic's cell phone, and some students

410
00:25:48,599 --> 00:25:50,799
came forward with evidence of their own from an app

411
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:55,000
called Life three sixty. For those of you who have

412
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,640
not heard of it, it's a family location sharing app.

413
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,359
It's kind of like the find my Phone app on

414
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:08,160
your iPhone, but it's actually much more precise. It sends

415
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,519
out a notification to your inner circle in case you

416
00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:14,160
need help or if your phone to text you've been

417
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,119
in a car crash. Daveon had this app on his phone,

418
00:26:18,759 --> 00:26:21,440
and the friends in his circle sent photos of the

419
00:26:21,559 --> 00:26:23,119
data to police.

420
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 4: I don't know if you got.

421
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,599
Speaker 7: Like good screenshots of the Life three sixty. Yeah, we

422
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:33,880
have those if you, but if you zoom in like

423
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,799
they were driving perfectly fine from Paul's house to the scene.

424
00:26:38,759 --> 00:26:41,160
So if you zoom in, zoom in, and like I

425
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:46,200
can put this on like satellite, you can see them

426
00:26:46,519 --> 00:26:49,640
so that they're on their road right, they're just driving casually,

427
00:26:50,599 --> 00:26:53,599
and then it's like normal, like you're just driving normal.

428
00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:57,279
And then you will start to see them swerving this

429
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:01,400
way onto the grass, and then now they're on the

430
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,160
wrong side of the road. So if you're on the

431
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,000
wrong side of the road, your first thing is think

432
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,039
is let's get on the right side of the road.

433
00:27:08,319 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 8: They're not though, They stay on the wrong side of

434
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,119
the road. So it kind of looks like road rage

435
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:12,359
to me.

436
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,279
Speaker 7: And if you go down this road, it's bumpy, like

437
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,200
it's not like you're going twenty five, it's still bumpy.

438
00:27:18,559 --> 00:27:21,480
They go over this curb and they're on the curb.

439
00:27:21,559 --> 00:27:24,119
They get off the curb, they get starts to straighten up.

440
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,599
They're going better, and now they get on the grass.

441
00:27:27,039 --> 00:27:30,920
They go over this whole overpass on the grass even deeper,

442
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:36,200
get off the grass on the curb, still driving on

443
00:27:36,279 --> 00:27:40,519
the curb, on the grass again on the grass. Stop

444
00:27:40,559 --> 00:27:44,400
signs right there over here and to me right here.

445
00:27:44,519 --> 00:27:46,559
If you like looked at the tracks that you guys

446
00:27:46,559 --> 00:27:49,039
probably have pictures of them. It looks like the person

447
00:27:49,079 --> 00:27:52,160
in the front seat tried to turn the wheel because

448
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,200
of the fact they were going to go straight into

449
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:54,559
a wall.

450
00:27:55,880 --> 00:28:00,519
Speaker 8: So what And it doesn't say she heartbroke once. It

451
00:28:00,559 --> 00:28:02,680
was ninety miles per hour down that whole road.

452
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,079
Speaker 7: The only time she heart broke off of Life three

453
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,519
sixty is when the collision happened.

454
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 8: To the war what, I mean, what do you guys

455
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:12,920
think about it?

456
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 19: I think that I don't know if they're arguing or

457
00:28:15,519 --> 00:28:17,359
if it was just carelessness. It might have just been

458
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,640
she was going fast, she could have tried. She's probably

459
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,440
just been careless. I mean that I know she had

460
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:22,799
some like big I don't know if it was on

461
00:28:22,799 --> 00:28:24,440
her car, but I've seen like on her Snapchat or

462
00:28:24,519 --> 00:28:27,720
some big ass like a fuzzy steering wheel cover. And

463
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,480
who knows if she just tried to like whip it

464
00:28:29,519 --> 00:28:32,599
around the turn going super fast and it just didn't turn.

465
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,519
But it probably, like I assume, it was just a

466
00:28:35,519 --> 00:28:37,640
careless mistake and it was just a preventable thing.

467
00:28:38,039 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 20: I mean, I think that obviously the drug reports then

468
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,559
to come back positive because they all smoked weed, so

469
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,480
she was she was just known for being that kinder

470
00:28:46,519 --> 00:28:48,839
girl in high school and as well out of high school.

471
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 7: And yeah, they called her baby cush.

472
00:28:53,079 --> 00:28:54,759
Speaker 8: Yeah what's say just because she smokes someone?

473
00:28:54,799 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 16: She smokes sweet and there's pictures on her Instagram. But

474
00:28:57,519 --> 00:29:00,799
I'm sure she took it down now, Yeah, hurting cars,

475
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:05,519
smoking weed. So if you're thinking from nastyandpoint, I also

476
00:29:05,559 --> 00:29:07,759
think that if they were on psychedelics and they took

477
00:29:07,799 --> 00:29:10,799
a nap, that can also still be effective because psychedelics

478
00:29:10,839 --> 00:29:14,200
is abruptly six to twelve hours. And I also think,

479
00:29:14,279 --> 00:29:17,359
because if Kenzie's in Dominic's history, that they were fighting

480
00:29:17,799 --> 00:29:20,000
because if Davion was on his phone man at five

481
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,559
thirty five before he died, I'm not even like thirty seconds,

482
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,359
why would he be responding about a view and.

483
00:29:26,359 --> 00:29:29,319
Speaker 7: Not helping the car get back on track, because if

484
00:29:29,319 --> 00:29:33,200
you knew something was up, I think Davion went on

485
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,079
his phone to district himself from the fighting.

486
00:29:35,279 --> 00:29:37,279
Speaker 20: Although they were on drugs, they can also still be

487
00:29:37,319 --> 00:29:39,039
fighting with being on drugs.

488
00:29:39,799 --> 00:29:41,559
Speaker 19: I don't know if they're like fighting, like no one

489
00:29:41,559 --> 00:29:46,200
will probably ever know if they're fighting, but like it

490
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,559
could have just been like careless sake. I don't think

491
00:29:48,599 --> 00:29:51,079
Kenzie even if she was like at roag Grade or

492
00:29:51,119 --> 00:29:51,519
she was working.

493
00:29:51,559 --> 00:29:53,359
Speaker 4: I don't think her intention was to kill two people

494
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,400
no matter what. So I mean, I don't know she.

495
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,759
Speaker 7: Tried to kill her boyfriend or Davion, but I think

496
00:29:58,799 --> 00:30:00,119
she was road grading down the road.

497
00:30:02,559 --> 00:30:03,279
Speaker 4: They passed away.

498
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,519
Speaker 6: I called my friend EJ, freaking out, and I drove

499
00:30:06,759 --> 00:30:08,680
sped up to EJ's house and I was talking to him,

500
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,319
and EJ's like, that's our football group, Like that's like

501
00:30:11,839 --> 00:30:14,279
this football group, and so like all this football dudes

502
00:30:14,359 --> 00:30:16,440
ended to mean that EJ's house are talking. So then

503
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,160
I went back to Paul's house because that's a rose

504
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:19,519
you know, all them were at and I was talking

505
00:30:19,519 --> 00:30:21,319
to them. But then as I was I went to

506
00:30:21,319 --> 00:30:22,960
do a drum my Mom's car back off there.

507
00:30:23,319 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 8: I picked up my.

508
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 4: Truck and then I stopped at the memorial where they

509
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:26,680
crashed at.

510
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 6: And as soon as I got there, that's when Proctor

511
00:30:29,319 --> 00:30:31,839
is saying, like Proctor, Joey, a bunch of these kids

512
00:30:31,839 --> 00:30:35,119
are saying, oh, they're fighting. Kensie's crazy, Kendy puts foodoo

513
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,240
on him. They're fighting all the time. They're fighting.

514
00:30:37,279 --> 00:30:39,519
Speaker 4: I'm like, they weren't fighting. I don't know what.

515
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,039
Speaker 6: Y'all just got this out of thin air, like they

516
00:30:42,039 --> 00:30:44,200
were not fighting. I can promise you that they weren't fighting.

517
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 14: Okay.

518
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: Police officers recovered weed, a scale, and some shrooms in

519
00:30:50,519 --> 00:30:54,519
the car, and there were rumors swirling that kids planned

520
00:30:54,559 --> 00:30:57,720
to take acid on the night of Paul's house party,

521
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,799
but no mention of shrews. The other partygoers had confirmed

522
00:31:02,799 --> 00:31:07,519
that they'd be smoking weed as per usual. They even

523
00:31:07,559 --> 00:31:10,720
sent texts to Dominic and Mackenzie about the amounts each

524
00:31:10,759 --> 00:31:15,680
person wanted. These two had quite the reputation for being,

525
00:31:16,359 --> 00:31:20,279
as Paul later put it, evil Cosmo and Wanda.

526
00:31:20,839 --> 00:31:25,279
Speaker 10: The eve off the crash, at ten twenty eight pm.

527
00:31:25,359 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 4: She says.

528
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,559
Speaker 10: She receives a text from one of the people at

529
00:31:30,559 --> 00:31:34,039
the party saying, so, we want forty dollars worth of butt,

530
00:31:34,119 --> 00:31:37,279
and Bubba wants three and I want two and a half.

531
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,720
Nina once one and a half, Paul wants two and

532
00:31:39,759 --> 00:31:47,039
a half. We're talking about marijuana, hear, okay, But if

533
00:31:47,039 --> 00:31:58,880
we go back earlier, okay, she talks about grams, bring

534
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,720
enough shrooms for all us. He's going to take under

535
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,720
a gram a gram of what.

536
00:32:04,559 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, we discussed that if we were going to do shooms,

537
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:09,720
but we did not end up doing that.

538
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,759
Speaker 10: Do you know if after you went to bed they

539
00:32:12,799 --> 00:32:18,440
did acid rooms? I don't know, okay, And like I said,

540
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,720
my concern it's not accusing you of anything, it's just well,

541
00:32:22,759 --> 00:32:25,279
did they do something and then they got on the road.

542
00:32:26,119 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 4: Because as you've you've already heard, it's you're on social media, right, okay?

543
00:32:30,319 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 10: On the the app that Tyler and some of the

544
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,000
Devion's friends have.

545
00:32:35,119 --> 00:32:38,079
Speaker 4: Shared with the families and with the public. We have

546
00:32:38,119 --> 00:32:38,920
her going ninety.

547
00:32:39,839 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 10: She might tell you stuff about her, maybe her relationship

548
00:32:44,759 --> 00:32:47,680
with Dom, maybe her some of her struggles. And we're

549
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,400
not trying to expose her secrets. But in that car

550
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,759
that day, there were three people. Two are dad who

551
00:32:52,759 --> 00:32:56,039
can't tell us. So we and she's not talking to

552
00:32:56,119 --> 00:32:58,039
us right her lawyer is not going to let her

553
00:32:58,039 --> 00:32:58,799
talk to the police.

554
00:33:00,079 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 4: Meant that her constitutional writing don't have to talk to

555
00:33:02,519 --> 00:33:02,920
the police.

556
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 10: So she's not breaking the law by not talking, she's

557
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,079
actually protecting herself. And so we have to piece everything

558
00:33:09,079 --> 00:33:12,200
together based on what the friends are saying.

559
00:33:13,079 --> 00:33:15,599
Speaker 8: How many times have you talked to Kensas since the accident?

560
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,799
Speaker 4: I only got to speer ones. You got to see

561
00:33:18,799 --> 00:33:19,240
her ones?

562
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:25,359
Speaker 8: Yeah, what was she like? Not happy?

563
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:32,319
Speaker 10: I mean, my my takeaway from having visited her twice

564
00:33:32,519 --> 00:33:35,359
was she didn't seem to care too much that she.

565
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,799
Speaker 4: Killed her boyfriend. Another guy, she had the same feelings

566
00:33:38,839 --> 00:33:39,559
when I walked in.

567
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 8: She was broken.

568
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 5: She was absolutely devastated, and she wouldn't shut up about that,

569
00:33:46,319 --> 00:33:48,319
Like she would only talk about that.

570
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:53,359
Speaker 4: So that really concerns me that she would be very different.

571
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,559
Speaker 8: I think for even that we were law enforcement or

572
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,200
her friends, so she, you know, she would nervous to

573
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:00,400
talk to us or you know.

574
00:34:01,559 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 1: So that makes sense, except it didn't make sense. Once

575
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,000
police had enough pieces of the puzzle to see the

576
00:34:09,039 --> 00:34:12,320
bigger picture, they were beginning to think that they were

577
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,400
dealing with an out of control team who had no

578
00:34:15,519 --> 00:34:19,679
sense of accountability or remorse, and not someone whose vehicle

579
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:24,800
innocently malfunctioned. The officers talked about their own experience with

580
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:29,480
Mackenzie and how it conflicted so much with Paul's experience,

581
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,760
and we can only assume this is one of the

582
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:36,159
occasions those officers are talking about.

583
00:34:36,679 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 8: So by law, I.

584
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:38,599
Speaker 4: Have to give you.

585
00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 21: This is your phone, Okay, Now, this is a search form.

586
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:50,039
The judge tether County Judge Rusale signed it.

587
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 4: You had, you had search activity and downloaded the data. Everything.

588
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 17: Now nobody's looking at.

589
00:34:54,679 --> 00:34:56,559
Speaker 18: Nobody's looking like we mirrord the phone.

590
00:34:56,599 --> 00:34:58,039
Speaker 4: We're going to look through the phone.

591
00:34:58,239 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 17: Right but everything she does now.

592
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 18: Now now she's on her own, Okay, all we care

593
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,599
about is free.

594
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,639
Speaker 4: Right now, I'm not concerned what she does. She's free

595
00:35:08,679 --> 00:35:09,599
to do whatever she wants.

596
00:35:09,599 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 18: But by law, this is the receipt of what we did,

597
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,280
which is a download of the data, and this is

598
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,199
the search warrth. Now, the search warrth lists the crime

599
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:23,199
we're investigating as an aggravated particular homicide times two.

600
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 4: Okay, it's because two people were killed in a car perence.

601
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 18: It does not mean I'm going to make this very clear,

602
00:35:31,679 --> 00:35:36,000
we're not charging you with aggravated the hicular homicide. So

603
00:35:36,159 --> 00:35:39,119
right now, I'm not going to interview her. She's obviously

604
00:35:39,119 --> 00:35:41,559
not in a good place to be interviewed. She has

605
00:35:41,599 --> 00:35:46,199
an attorney. Once she's released. I gave you my contact info,

606
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,280
Have your lawyer give me a call or give me

607
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,400
your contact your lawyer's contact info, and then I'll call

608
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,119
him and if he wants her to cooperate, that's his decision.

609
00:35:54,159 --> 00:35:57,159
If he doesn't want her to cooperate, that's his decision.

610
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,679
I do want you to know that a lot of

611
00:36:00,079 --> 00:36:03,199
people are coming to us and reporting things, and so

612
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:08,440
usually usually the most accurate information we're gonna get is

613
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,519
from her. So whether or not she chooses to operate

614
00:36:11,559 --> 00:36:13,519
on advice of counsel, that's up to her.

615
00:36:13,559 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna go with her. What are people coming

616
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,320
in and saying I cannot.

617
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 18: Tell you that that's the investigation, that's why the crash.

618
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:25,760
Speaker 4: Well, because we don't. We have to put everything together.

619
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 18: But this is a copy of the search warrant with

620
00:36:27,519 --> 00:36:29,320
the affidavit and everything.

621
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 4: That the judge looked at. Okay, I'm gonna.

622
00:36:31,599 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 9: Take my cable work back. Do you have any questions

623
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:39,639
for me at this I have one. We're able to

624
00:36:39,639 --> 00:36:42,400
pull video. I know you off the building across the street.

625
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:46,599
Speaker 3: Again.

626
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,119
Speaker 4: I cannot comment on the investigation, but we have.

627
00:36:51,559 --> 00:36:51,679
Speaker 15: Through.

628
00:36:54,159 --> 00:36:56,079
Speaker 4: We did not. We just neared your face.

629
00:36:56,159 --> 00:36:58,079
Speaker 8: I see two three of them open.

630
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 18: We did not, but their way even if we did,

631
00:37:01,039 --> 00:37:04,239
we have a search on so uh, we're gonna look

632
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,920
at the car tomorrow. We're gonna download the black box

633
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,400
from the car, so we know if there was any

634
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,760
type of error, we're gonna have OSB. They're sending a

635
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:17,079
reconstruction UH trooper to look at it and download the material.

636
00:37:17,079 --> 00:37:18,920
We also got a search one for that as well.

637
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,000
This is a very difficult situation, and you can put

638
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,920
this on the record. I am not here to try

639
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,400
to interview your daughter and get some incriminating in from

640
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:30,760
I'm not at this point. We are investigating. I am

641
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,440
I want to protect her constitutional rights. So it's very,

642
00:37:34,519 --> 00:37:37,519
very important that your lawyer gets in contact with me

643
00:37:37,679 --> 00:37:39,840
or I get in contact with him so we can say, hey, sir,

644
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,000
are you gonna let her cooperate? If he says we're

645
00:37:42,039 --> 00:37:44,639
not saying anything, then we have to build our case

646
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,519
based on everything else.

647
00:37:49,159 --> 00:37:49,559
Speaker 17: Charges.

648
00:37:50,599 --> 00:37:53,679
Speaker 4: If anybody presses charges, it's the county. It's not the

649
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:59,559
families's on.

650
00:38:00,039 --> 00:38:07,559
Speaker 22: He's Jesus taking you can't Yeah, like can I just

651
00:38:07,599 --> 00:38:10,559
like like take my whole license away for like ten.

652
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:11,599
Speaker 17: Years or something like that.

653
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,679
Speaker 4: I do have a lawyer. Thought my daughter was living

654
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:22,800
with dom Well, I believe her purse is a ris.

655
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:24,760
Speaker 14: Her purse?

656
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 8: Is it?

657
00:38:26,599 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 4: What's your purse?

658
00:38:27,599 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 17: Christian?

659
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 4: Or Okay, not that Michael.

660
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: Course, if you were really confused just now, I'm not

661
00:38:34,039 --> 00:38:36,800
sure if you're hearing English at the end there. That's

662
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,280
because Mackenzie turned to her mother to speak some variation

663
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:44,920
of pig Latin before asking the officer if she could just,

664
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:48,840
you know, have her license revoked for ten years or something.

665
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,320
But just wait, it gets worse.

666
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,639
Speaker 18: We got sent to this call. Here's what we find out.

667
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,320
Here's you know, the evidence we have. Whether it's for

668
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,679
her or answer. We just give them everything, everything that

669
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,920
I have, every piece of paper that I write on.

670
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:06,079
Speaker 4: He will get all of it.

671
00:39:06,159 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 18: I'll see my notes, my reports, all the other officers reports,

672
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:22,280
body camps, everything, every single right now, because this is

673
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,679
right now, this is allen that, everything's evidence.

674
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 13: This is just.

675
00:39:27,199 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 18: After, after the evidence, After this is all over, you'll

676
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:32,559
be able to see whatever you wants, all public record.

677
00:39:32,639 --> 00:39:34,599
Speaker 4: You can come get a copy of everything we do.

678
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:40,800
Speaker 1: Yes, lying in the hospital bed, she really asked the

679
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:45,440
police officers investigating the crash if she could see the

680
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:51,039
body cam footage. Her father responded, no, because it's not

681
00:39:51,159 --> 00:39:56,119
going to be pretty. How cold does your soul have

682
00:39:56,199 --> 00:40:00,719
to be to act this way? You've just accidentally or

683
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:06,480
maybe not accidentally killed your boyfriend and your friend and

684
00:40:06,559 --> 00:40:09,159
you want to see the body cam footage of these

685
00:40:09,199 --> 00:40:14,639
poor police officers discovering the whole mess. Why so you

686
00:40:14,639 --> 00:40:18,039
can cover your ass. This isn't the only instance of

687
00:40:18,199 --> 00:40:22,639
Mackenzie's odd behavior. After the deaths of Davion and Dominic.

688
00:40:23,519 --> 00:40:27,360
Dominic's family had been having strange interactions with Mackenzie since

689
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:31,639
the crash. Here's Dominic's mother, who happens to be a

690
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:33,119
defense attorney herself.

691
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 8: She did say.

692
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 13: Something that was pretty damning the other day.

693
00:40:44,679 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 5: Have you seen her in person or just you've just

694
00:40:46,519 --> 00:40:47,880
seen her tice of the summeter?

695
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:49,599
Speaker 8: How does she get there?

696
00:40:49,679 --> 00:40:50,280
Speaker 4: Can she drive?

697
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 8: How is she in a wheelchair?

698
00:40:54,119 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 15: Still?

699
00:40:54,639 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 13: Yeah, she can only put Wayne on her love leg

700
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,239
and then she's supposed to start some physical fare be

701
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,400
and then i'd also come to touch because she's dangling photos.

702
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:08,639
She's dangling videos, you know, but she just pieces one

703
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,199
or two out instead of saying, I think you'd enjoyed it.

704
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:14,679
Speaker 17: Like we read the cemetery and we had this bee.

705
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 4: Problem between the two us. I still have the be

706
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:16,880
problem that.

707
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 17: The people are coming today.

708
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,639
Speaker 13: But Tom had called me about the bees, and I

709
00:41:20,639 --> 00:41:22,639
don't know what she was recording, but it's all his

710
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,079
voice at least, you know, because it has his voice.

711
00:41:25,119 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 17: And so she finally sends.

712
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:27,519
Speaker 14: Me mam one.

713
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 13: But it's like every single time we try to get

714
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,480
a picture, she's all over my son, so.

715
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,559
Speaker 17: I can't even get one without her.

716
00:41:36,679 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 8: He catered her.

717
00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 13: She claimed she had a gluten free problem or something,

718
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:46,440
and I would make dinner. I would be questioned, was

719
00:41:46,519 --> 00:41:49,719
the stuff okay for her diet because her stomach? And

720
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:54,280
if I didn't have everything that would have complied with

721
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,840
her stomach diet, whatever it was, I'd.

722
00:41:56,679 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 17: Ever believed it.

723
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 13: He would cook for her supper. Ad she's a slob.

724
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,840
She never cleaned her mother's houses a slot. My house

725
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,039
isn't the greatest either, But I'm just saying it's just,

726
00:42:09,599 --> 00:42:11,320
you know, if Dom's going to cook for you, do

727
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,760
the dishes, clean up bath for yourself, do you know

728
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:14,320
what I mean?

729
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 17: That sort of a thing.

730
00:42:17,639 --> 00:42:20,559
Speaker 11: But everything was always about her, I mean, like I said,

731
00:42:20,559 --> 00:42:24,840
even with her parents. So while Kensey was in the hospital,

732
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:29,039
they were already making up stories, okay as to what happened.

733
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 4: But the deer of an apple.

734
00:42:30,679 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 17: Umpsy the seizure and the point of all of that

735
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:35,559
is the fact that.

736
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,360
Speaker 13: The mom never said the kids home, She never checked.

737
00:42:39,039 --> 00:42:39,599
Speaker 1: In with me.

738
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 17: Ever, the only time they would ever come over would

739
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:43,559
be once.

740
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 13: In a blue moon to drop some mom or to

741
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:48,639
take pictures for some of that.

742
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 12: Do you know what I'm saying. But Kenzy, I mean

743
00:42:51,519 --> 00:42:54,280
Dom took her to Polaris. Dom made sure she made

744
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:58,800
it to school. Mom didn't do any of that. Okay,

745
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:04,480
So it was all DMB. But the girl had no

746
00:43:04,519 --> 00:43:05,599
problems sitting with me.

747
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:06,800
Speaker 17: Won't be in the eye.

748
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 13: One of these girls can't look me in the eye,

749
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,079
and that right there bothers me. You can't look at

750
00:43:12,079 --> 00:43:13,639
me and you can't talk to me. I feel that

751
00:43:13,679 --> 00:43:17,559
there's something more. Kensie was always okay with that, you know,

752
00:43:17,599 --> 00:43:20,679
okayvid what had no problems walk into my house and

753
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,519
it was you know what I mean?

754
00:43:22,559 --> 00:43:26,760
Speaker 8: And I just that means you're gonna like her because she.

755
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:28,760
Speaker 13: Was always said right and she you know, she came

756
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:33,800
over for holidays and they'd you know, they'd include me

757
00:43:34,039 --> 00:43:39,199
and things like that, you know, and and I just

758
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,360
maybe she just needs to grow up. She's young, I mean,

759
00:43:42,519 --> 00:43:45,440
you know what I'm saying. You don't think that it's

760
00:43:45,519 --> 00:43:50,039
going to click to this. I mean, I mean I

761
00:43:50,039 --> 00:43:51,960
feel back to build the girl forever. I mean I

762
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:55,239
can't imagine, but she's feeling like whether she did on purposes,

763
00:43:55,239 --> 00:44:01,199
she claims she does nothing, she remembers nothing, and even

764
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:06,800
saying that all Dumb's problems were because of her and

765
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:11,719
being upset and uh, I needed to realize that she

766
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:16,960
wasn't as sweet and innocent as I.

767
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 4: Thought she was.

768
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,119
Speaker 23: It's heartbreaking to me because like the day before I

769
00:44:20,159 --> 00:44:21,840
went to Florida, which is the last time I seen

770
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,440
him face to face, he was really just talking to

771
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:25,199
me about.

772
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:27,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, about like.

773
00:44:28,639 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 23: How he can't keep letting Kenzie like run his life,

774
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,159
but not even an aspect like that, Like he said, like,

775
00:44:36,639 --> 00:44:38,280
all right, for example, you know how I was saying

776
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,400
how he can't go to like he can't go out

777
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,599
with even me occasionally because she's upset about and this

778
00:44:43,639 --> 00:44:47,760
and that he said that she holds him back. Well,

779
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,519
I think he was really honestly finally getting to the

780
00:44:50,559 --> 00:44:52,760
point to where like even if she was like saying

781
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,719
I'm gonna hurt you, he would have like maybe even

782
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,440
taken that chance because he was getting it was it's

783
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:02,119
more than like two years he'll be like, dude, he

784
00:45:02,159 --> 00:45:04,920
would be so nice and as a comedy as possible

785
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:06,480
to stop the fight, and she'd be one of those

786
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:07,239
people that is just.

787
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 4: Petty, petty, petty patty.

788
00:45:10,599 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 23: He's just like I remember times him like expressing to

789
00:45:13,559 --> 00:45:16,119
me how frustrated that he was saying, I do every

790
00:45:16,159 --> 00:45:19,199
singing with thing I can for this girl. I ask

791
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,800
her what's upsetting your lick invitter? This and that, blah

792
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:23,960
blah blah, and she finds, like any single thing to

793
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:25,519
just be mad at me about you know what I'm saying.

794
00:45:25,639 --> 00:45:28,199
Speaker 4: Like it's like I witness it a lot too, Like.

795
00:45:30,039 --> 00:45:31,800
Speaker 10: I don't know, you drive her stuff with did you

796
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,480
ever see her hit him, put her hands on him,

797
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,400
her hit hand like just cool, you know, or throw

798
00:45:38,519 --> 00:45:39,360
stuff at him.

799
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 24: Or no, now that you say that, I remember several

800
00:45:45,039 --> 00:45:47,519
times now because my memory is getting jogged, that he

801
00:45:47,559 --> 00:45:49,960
would say, Mom, can you get Kenzie out of here?

802
00:45:50,639 --> 00:45:53,119
Speaker 4: She's refusing to refusing to.

803
00:45:53,159 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 17: Leave, she's out of control, She's hit me.

804
00:45:55,639 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 25: I do remember that, And I never I would get

805
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,519
on the phone and say just leave and go home.

806
00:46:03,199 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 23: There's times, there's multiple times, even pretty like recently before

807
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,840
all this, that Don would have to call Kenzie's parents,

808
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:11,800
call her, call her mom and stuff and say, hey,

809
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,800
you need to come get Kenzie out of here.

810
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:15,079
Speaker 4: She's refusing to leave my house.

811
00:46:15,119 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 23: She's being crazy, and it'd be a situation where they'd

812
00:46:18,039 --> 00:46:20,920
be in a fight. Keep in mind something stupid that

813
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,480
she started. And he's like listen, He's like, just go home.

814
00:46:24,159 --> 00:46:27,199
He's like, well, we'll hang out tomorrow. It'll be like

815
00:46:27,199 --> 00:46:30,440
a whole new thing. He finally get her out. She's

816
00:46:30,519 --> 00:46:31,840
the type to show back up.

817
00:46:32,119 --> 00:46:34,639
Speaker 4: At his house. Pou, I'm not his window. No, I'm

818
00:46:34,639 --> 00:46:36,440
coming in. Blah blah blah. We're talking this shit out

819
00:46:36,559 --> 00:46:37,079
right now.

820
00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 26: Like before you lied, You lied and said you would

821
00:46:40,519 --> 00:46:42,000
never lock me out of the house again.

822
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,079
Speaker 1: That is why we got back together last time we

823
00:46:45,119 --> 00:46:47,239
broke up, but.

824
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,840
Speaker 14: I forgot.

825
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:55,000

00:48:26,599 --> 00:48:26,800
Speaker 8: Can't?

870
00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 14: Just why are you acting over this?

871
00:48:30,679 --> 00:48:32,119
Speaker 15: I'm gonna give you one the last second.

872
00:48:32,159 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 17: I'm gonna have to.

Speaker 8: Keep your car.

874
00:48:34,519 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 14: Why why why would you? Why would that ever be

875
00:48:37,119 --> 00:48:37,559
like an option?

876
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:38,519
Speaker 2: Your broken up?

877
00:48:38,559 --> 00:48:40,840
Speaker 15: If you don't let me in the house, I'm breaking up.

878
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,840
Speaker 4: I will break up with you. I'm going to break

879
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:43,199
up with you.

880
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:44,639
Speaker 6: You're not open this door.

881
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,639
Speaker 14: You took all your shid least I thought like you

882
00:48:46,679 --> 00:48:47,519
didn't want to be here.

883
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna break into your house with the actual fun.

884
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,639
Speaker 8: Well I just broke your fucking key thing, so that sucks.

885
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,519
Speaker 14: Were key thing? Coming?

886
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:03,320
Speaker 8: Do?

887
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 15: I feel like call the police?

888
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,519
Speaker 14: Why why would you call the police?

889
00:49:07,559 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 15: Or you're not gonna let me into my house?

890
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:10,320
Speaker 1: This is not your house.

891
00:49:11,599 --> 00:49:16,840
Speaker 14: I'm calling on You're not doing this and we're gonna

892
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,239
break up this house.

893
00:49:19,079 --> 00:49:19,760
Speaker 1: So we are done.

894
00:49:20,159 --> 00:49:21,559
Speaker 8: If you do not let me in the house that

895
00:49:21,639 --> 00:49:22,679
I sleep in every night.

896
00:49:22,679 --> 00:49:23,199
Speaker 2: We are done.

897
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:32,079
Speaker 1: Just listen to this narcissistic, entitled, childlike brat that has

898
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:36,840
apparently never been told no in her entire fucking life.

899
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,679
She's just hearing that word for the first time, just now,

900
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:46,719
the verbal kicking, the stomping, the crying the way like

901
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:51,679
a toddler, angrily making noises and stopping their feet because

902
00:49:51,679 --> 00:49:55,119
their pacifier fell to the ground, and screaming is the

903
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:59,360
only way to combat the force of gravity. She's literally

904
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:04,920
threatening to call the police whilst committing a crime. What

905
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:06,559
a fucking moron.

906
00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:10,800
Speaker 23: She'd make threats. He'd definitely say that she's the kind

907
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:12,960
of person to follow through with those threats.

908
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 4: He believed she would follow through.

909
00:50:16,039 --> 00:50:21,840
Speaker 23: Yeah, not like I mean, obviously everybody makes false threats

910
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:25,719
and empty threats and stuff like that. But some of

911
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:29,239
the stuff he would or she would say. I do

912
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:33,440
remember him telling me, yeah, Kinzie's crazy. She would actually

913
00:50:33,559 --> 00:50:34,480
probably do that ship.

914
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 4: I mean, that's the problem.

915
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:37,440
Speaker 8: You know.

916
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:39,639
Speaker 17: She threatened him constantly.

917
00:50:39,679 --> 00:50:40,039
Speaker 2: I told you.

918
00:50:40,119 --> 00:50:42,039
Speaker 12: It was one week before we had to pick him

919
00:50:42,119 --> 00:50:43,920
up on the highway when she threatened to crash the

920
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:44,480
car down.

921
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,920
Speaker 17: Okay, it's not I was on with DOWND. She said them,

922
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:50,159
text me down was out of control.

923
00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:51,800
Speaker 4: Down was very calm, So mom.

924
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 8: We did see those Yeah, that's one of the things

925
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:57,239
we wanted to bring off.

926
00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 26: Was that right they were on the side of the route.

927
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:04,079
Said I'm calling the police if you don't get you

928
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,840
and I said you can. I on the phone saying

929
00:51:08,079 --> 00:51:10,400
she can call the police all she wants, but we

930
00:51:10,519 --> 00:51:11,400
are on our way.

931
00:51:11,679 --> 00:51:12,880
Speaker 4: What are the police kind to do?

932
00:51:14,079 --> 00:51:16,559
Speaker 1: If she had called the police the numerous times she

933
00:51:16,679 --> 00:51:21,239
apparently threatened to, maybe these kids would have been forced

934
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:24,760
to break up a long time ago. Maybe Mackenzie would

935
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:28,639
be in juvie and Dominic and Davion would still be alive.

936
00:51:29,679 --> 00:51:33,480
Mackenzie was known for making threats, though most of them empty.

937
00:51:34,599 --> 00:51:38,199
The police from the forensic vehicle inspection came back and

938
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:40,639
showed that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the car.

939
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,679
It worked fine, well not after the crash, but you

940
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:48,159
know what I mean. Images of Mackenzie trapped in the

941
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:54,199
car that day with her fuzzy Prada slipper pressing the

942
00:51:54,320 --> 00:52:00,119
accelerator to the floor suddenly looked even more suspicious. We

943
00:52:00,199 --> 00:52:02,679
don't have details about this, but it's on record that

944
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:07,320
Mackenzie drove that exact route a few days prior she

945
00:52:07,559 --> 00:52:11,480
was casing. The joint investigators also knew that Mackenzie had

946
00:52:11,519 --> 00:52:14,760
threatened to crash the car with Dominic in it just

947
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:20,119
a few weeks before, and it seemed increasingly probable that

948
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:55,159
this was a threat she followed through with. In the

949
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,800
months following the tragic car wreck that claimed the lives

950
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:02,199
of twenty year old Manik Russo and nineteen year old

951
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:07,840
Davion Flanagain, detectives in Strong Below, Ohio diligently conducted interviews,

952
00:53:08,119 --> 00:53:12,400
reviewed evidence, and methodically built their case. As they pieced

953
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:16,920
together the puzzle, the evidence increasingly pointed towards the driver,

954
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:22,880
seventeen year old Mackenzie Shrilla, leaving little room for doubt.

955
00:53:23,679 --> 00:53:29,559
Speaker 10: So since the crash in the passing of Dominic has,

956
00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:32,960
has she been in contact with you?

957
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,400
Speaker 23: As she reached out to She texted me multiple times

958
00:53:37,679 --> 00:53:39,639
I could read you the text word for word. She

959
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:43,159
never once, never once said I'm sorry for your loss.

960
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:45,559
She never once said I'm so sorry for what happened.

961
00:53:45,599 --> 00:53:48,519
She never once took responsibility, not even having to take

962
00:53:48,519 --> 00:53:52,880
any responsibility, just saying I'm sorry Dom's gone like anything.

963
00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:56,800
But she asked me for forgiveness about ten times, saying

964
00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:58,679
I hope that you forgive me. I still want to

965
00:53:58,679 --> 00:54:00,519
be a part of your family, and I'll just show

966
00:54:00,519 --> 00:54:02,960
you the text and make it easy see this. She

967
00:54:03,039 --> 00:54:05,480
text me on August sixth, okay, before that, the last

968
00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,679
time she texted me was May seventh. Okay, so so

969
00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,079
May seventh was the last time she texted me, and

970
00:54:11,119 --> 00:54:13,239
it was just to say Dom's phone died. The last

971
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:15,639
time she texted me before that, well, she was asking

972
00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:18,000
me if I could do homework for her because she

973
00:54:18,159 --> 00:54:18,920
was too lazy.

974
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:22,079
Speaker 4: To do her math work. Wow, and I mean honestly,

975
00:54:22,199 --> 00:54:24,960
like I May seventh? And then when was the next

976
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,079
time after May seventh, which was the date August sixth,

977
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:32,519
after the crash, And you could read it? This is

978
00:54:32,519 --> 00:54:34,480
what she said, a word for word August.

979
00:54:35,599 --> 00:54:38,599
Speaker 3: Hey, Angelo, I don't know if you hate me, but

980
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,719
tomorrow for the funeral, would you be able to go

981
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,280
in Dom's room and grab some photos from his desk

982
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,760
for me and him so I could put them into

983
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,000
the casket so he can be with me forever.

984
00:54:51,639 --> 00:54:55,280
Speaker 23: Doesn't say sorry, doesn't say nothing, doesn't say anything. This says,

985
00:54:55,599 --> 00:54:57,719
Hey Angelo, I don't know if you hate me, but

986
00:54:57,840 --> 00:54:59,719
can you go grab pictures of us and put them

987
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:01,400
in his so I could deal with him forever?

988
00:55:01,639 --> 00:55:02,039
Speaker 4: How like?

989
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:06,679
Speaker 23: Honestly? How psychotic does that sound? That sounds fucking twisted.

990
00:55:07,079 --> 00:55:08,840
She texted me again after that at all, just to

991
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:11,639
say please let me know, as she texted me again

992
00:55:13,039 --> 00:55:15,920
August twenty third. Actually she did say sorry one time,

993
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:17,760
first time that she ever said this.

994
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:21,199
Speaker 4: She said, I'm here. What we agreed if you want it.

995
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:24,199
Speaker 3: Says Hi Angelo. I just wanted to say I'm so sorry.

996
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:26,880
I know you probably think this is all my fault,

997
00:55:27,199 --> 00:55:29,599
and I'm not asking you to feel bad for me,

998
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:32,440
but I just wanted to say I'm so sorry, and

999
00:55:32,559 --> 00:55:35,400
I know you miss him so much. I wish he

1000
00:55:35,519 --> 00:55:38,840
was here too. This should have never happened. He loves

1001
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:40,079
you so much, and.

1002
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:41,760
Speaker 8: I k you.

1003
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:44,280
Speaker 4: I know, I know you know that.

1004
00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:48,039
Speaker 3: I don't even know what to say to you or

1005
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:50,960
just feel so bad. I hope you guys can forgive

1006
00:55:51,039 --> 00:55:54,039
me because I always look at you guys as family.

1007
00:55:54,599 --> 00:55:56,599
You don't even need to respond to me. Just want

1008
00:55:56,679 --> 00:55:57,039
to do to know.

1009
00:55:57,159 --> 00:56:01,719
Speaker 4: I'm so sorry. Okay, but see even these texts.

1010
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:08,000
Speaker 23: That she sent me, even in this one, okay, it

1011
00:56:08,039 --> 00:56:10,559
would it maybe would have been something if it's like hey,

1012
00:56:10,679 --> 00:56:12,800
if it was just I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry,

1013
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,400
you know, But then she has to go just one line.

1014
00:56:15,519 --> 00:56:17,400
It's one sentence that I'm so sorry, and then it

1015
00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:19,159
goes I know you probably think this is all my

1016
00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:20,920
fault and I'm asking you to feel bad for me.

1017
00:56:21,159 --> 00:56:23,880
Why would I feel bad for you in this situation?

1018
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:26,360
How did it take you one sentence of saying sorry

1019
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,559
and then then just to go to that. It should

1020
00:56:28,599 --> 00:56:31,239
literally be like I'm so sorry I bought the paint.

1021
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,199
It should all be about you're texting.

1022
00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:35,360
Speaker 4: She's worried about what you think of her, So she's

1023
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:36,440
using that sorry.

1024
00:56:37,159 --> 00:56:40,360
Speaker 23: Like the whole, the whole, like the whole entire, like

1025
00:56:40,679 --> 00:56:43,039
the whole, entire consistency of her is just self.

1026
00:56:43,159 --> 00:56:46,119
Speaker 4: Is just She's just self, self absorbed and self.

1027
00:56:46,159 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 23: So everything that she texts me, even if she is

1028
00:56:48,519 --> 00:56:51,480
finally saying I'm sorry, there's it's it's about her.

1029
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:52,760
Speaker 4: It's not even about me.

1030
00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 10: So uh, I know, since we get herd of the phone,

1031
00:56:56,000 --> 00:57:00,760
she's been back active on social media and any of

1032
00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:04,880
your friend's screenshots you anything, have you? You know, we've

1033
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,039
received some photos of her in the wheelchair out and about.

1034
00:57:08,199 --> 00:57:11,840
Speaker 23: I could definitely get some screenshots. I'm not on social

1035
00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:14,639
media much at all. Okay, but the first thing I

1036
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:17,400
did hear of at the time. We didn't even know

1037
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:20,519
if this was her mom or her or what, because

1038
00:57:20,559 --> 00:57:22,079
we didn't even know if she was even awake to

1039
00:57:22,199 --> 00:57:23,920
use a phone. We didn't know how severe injury was

1040
00:57:24,039 --> 00:57:27,119
or anything, you know. And the first thing I seen

1041
00:57:27,159 --> 00:57:30,119
from her, she didn't text my mom, She didn't text me,

1042
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:32,119
she didn't text my dad, she didn't text anybody in

1043
00:57:32,159 --> 00:57:32,599
my family.

1044
00:57:33,119 --> 00:57:34,920
Speaker 4: The first thing I seen from.

1045
00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 23: Her contacting anybody, well, she texted a modeling agency that

1046
00:57:38,599 --> 00:57:40,519
reached out to her and said something.

1047
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:47,039
Speaker 1: Here's what the company commented on one of Mackenzie's photos.

1048
00:57:47,679 --> 00:57:51,039
Speaker 27: We love this look, Kenzie Sharilla. Can we use this

1049
00:57:51,199 --> 00:57:54,920
post on our website and emails? We'll make sure you're credited,

1050
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:58,039
replied to this comment with hashtag community if so.

1051
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:01,679
Speaker 1: Most of us have probably gotten comments like this in

1052
00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:06,159
our own Instagram accounts, and we all know it's spam

1053
00:58:06,639 --> 00:58:10,800
we should ignore. But Mackenzie's mother, Natalie, jumped at the

1054
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:14,920
opportunity and replied to the comment with her own account

1055
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:16,320
typo's and all.

1056
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:22,760
Speaker 28: She said, thank you for this amazing opportunity. Hello, this

1057
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:24,960
is her mother. She would love if you would use that.

1058
00:58:25,119 --> 00:58:28,000
She's actually been trying to contact you guys for pr email.

1059
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,280
It was a tragic accident and she did not purposely

1060
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,360
mean put an end to any of her close friend's life.

1061
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:38,039
This is just as painful as it is for her

1062
00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:40,880
as it is for everybody else, or maybe even a

1063
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:41,960
little bit more painful.

1064
00:58:42,559 --> 00:58:43,239
Speaker 14: Hard emoji.

1065
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:49,079
Speaker 1: Ben Mackenzie chimed in from her hospital bed and commented, thank.

1066
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:49,639
Speaker 2: You for the comment.

1067
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:51,840
Speaker 3: I would love to work with you, guys. I've been

1068
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:53,199
emailing you guys a lot.

1069
00:58:53,719 --> 00:58:54,840
Speaker 2: Such a great opportunity.

1070
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:55,239
Speaker 13: Thank you.

1071
00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:58,039
Speaker 23: But that was before even like you're going to go

1072
00:58:58,119 --> 00:59:00,679
and reach out to Amaya aguring out the one to

1073
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:04,480
use your picture before texting several people on this, Yeah,

1074
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:07,599
many many people in between that should have gotten that

1075
00:59:07,679 --> 00:59:11,119
text beforehand, you know what I mean. And then like

1076
00:59:11,239 --> 00:59:13,440
her mom, her dad is someone never even texted me once.

1077
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:16,719
I already had, I already previous to this, had somewhat

1078
00:59:16,719 --> 00:59:19,519
of a relationship with her mom, talking about her daughter's

1079
00:59:19,559 --> 00:59:22,280
issues or whatever and what I think or whatever, and

1080
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:25,079
you know, and it wasn't like we never talked before,

1081
00:59:25,239 --> 00:59:26,800
you know what I mean. I say hi to her

1082
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:29,400
in the driveway when she was driving her off, and

1083
00:59:29,719 --> 00:59:32,000
uh before she was driving this a while ago.

1084
00:59:32,239 --> 00:59:33,719
Speaker 8: But but she definitely has.

1085
00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:37,199
Speaker 4: She's never said not even a word, not a pee,

1086
00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:38,559
neither from her dad or nothing.

1087
00:59:39,639 --> 00:59:43,360
Speaker 1: Some people, not very many, but a few still wanted

1088
00:59:43,400 --> 00:59:48,199
to defend Mackenzie and her lack of remorse. They're called

1089
00:59:48,199 --> 00:59:52,400
the enablers, and uh, a lot of bad people have

1090
00:59:52,519 --> 00:59:55,000
a lot of those people in their life. One of

1091
00:59:55,079 --> 00:59:59,639
those people was her friend Paul, the host of the party.

1092
01:00:00,239 --> 01:00:05,159
Speaker 10: This solved speculation, but at this point, you know, yeah, Kenzie,

1093
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,480
if you're on social media, did you see Kenzie talking

1094
01:00:09,559 --> 01:00:09,800
with this.

1095
01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:12,360
Speaker 4: Modeling company after the crash, after we gave her a

1096
01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:16,920
phone back, I saw people talking about that. Yeah, what

1097
01:00:17,079 --> 01:00:17,559
did you see?

1098
01:00:19,039 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 10: Just people really enraged, enraged about what that she was

1099
01:00:23,079 --> 01:00:25,760
talking to the modeling company. Yeah, to see how happy

1100
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:28,840
her mom was that she's that the modeling company is

1101
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:31,280
trying to help her plan her future. She just killed

1102
01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:34,039
her boyfriend and another kid with a very bright future,

1103
01:00:34,079 --> 01:00:38,639
actually killed two people. And the reaction is, I'm worried

1104
01:00:38,639 --> 01:00:41,920
about my modeling career instead of that's why I'm saying

1105
01:00:42,079 --> 01:00:46,079
way all that. As you know, as the time comes,

1106
01:00:46,239 --> 01:00:48,280
you know that people can put on a really good

1107
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:51,079
show about how devastated they are, but then you look

1108
01:00:51,119 --> 01:00:52,440
at their social media.

1109
01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:55,960
Speaker 4: And you're back talking about your career and your future plans.

1110
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,880
Speaker 10: If I kill my friends or if I'm responsible for

1111
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:02,679
the death of somebody stavastating you know, and I hope

1112
01:01:02,719 --> 01:01:07,440
you never ever have to experience that. But the reaction

1113
01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:11,239
that you saw and that we saw is something that

1114
01:01:11,519 --> 01:01:12,119
is intrigued.

1115
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:16,119
Speaker 1: All this evidence was certainly intriguing enough for the county

1116
01:01:16,199 --> 01:01:21,639
prosecutor to pursue charges against Mackenzie, and after a very

1117
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:26,719
slow and secretive investigation, she was officially charged in November

1118
01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:31,320
of twenty twenty two. Mackenzie would face four counts of

1119
01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:37,679
murder and felonious assault, two counts of aggravated vehicular homicide,

1120
01:01:37,719 --> 01:01:41,480
and one count of drug possession. Oh and also one

1121
01:01:41,559 --> 01:01:43,920
count of possessing criminal tools.

1122
01:01:44,679 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 2: Where see, I'm back there, pal, I'm Kenzie.

1123
01:01:52,519 --> 01:01:53,280
Speaker 14: Step off for me.

1124
01:01:55,599 --> 01:01:56,599
Speaker 2: I'm Detective Azoo.

1125
01:01:56,679 --> 01:01:59,320
Speaker 3: I'm the one who's been investigating the crash. You're under

1126
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,079
arrest for agris man of murder times too.

1127
01:02:02,639 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 10: Nobody's gonna ask her any questions, nobody's gonna bother you

1128
01:02:05,639 --> 01:02:07,360
have your pie, please, because you.

1129
01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:09,199
Speaker 15: Please be careful taking this where you are so it

1130
01:02:09,239 --> 01:02:10,960
doesn't eastlately you got.

1131
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:11,519
Speaker 14: It, You got it.

1132
01:02:12,599 --> 01:02:15,960
Speaker 1: Mackenzie and her defense attorneys decided a bench trial would

1133
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:18,920
be the best route. This meant that she would skip

1134
01:02:19,039 --> 01:02:21,559
the whole jury trial and the judge alone would hear

1135
01:02:21,639 --> 01:02:25,760
her case and decide her fate. It's quite a gamble.

1136
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:27,880
You got to get a good judge in there that

1137
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:32,039
you think you can get on their side somehow. This

1138
01:02:32,239 --> 01:02:35,000
is just a hunch, but perhaps her defense attorneys knew

1139
01:02:35,679 --> 01:02:40,079
that she'd be perceived pretty badly by a jury, a

1140
01:02:40,199 --> 01:02:43,719
jury that's probably had plenty of experience with Braddy children

1141
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:49,599
and have maybe taught them better. Anyway, they probably hoped

1142
01:02:49,719 --> 01:02:51,599
they would get lucky if they only had to convince

1143
01:02:52,159 --> 01:02:56,519
one person. If that was their plan, it turned out

1144
01:02:56,519 --> 01:02:57,199
to be a bad one.

1145
01:02:59,239 --> 01:03:02,320
Speaker 29: Judge is as the jury and the finder of fact

1146
01:03:02,719 --> 01:03:04,920
as well as the rule of law, and it is

1147
01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:07,800
a reminder of just how difficult a job it is

1148
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:11,559
to serve as a finder of fact. Whether it's a

1149
01:03:11,639 --> 01:03:14,199
bench trial or a jury trial, the rules of law

1150
01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:15,039
are the same.

1151
01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:18,159
Speaker 8: I have done what I have sworn to do.

1152
01:03:19,119 --> 01:03:22,679
Speaker 29: I have carefully and deliberately considered all the evidence in

1153
01:03:22,719 --> 01:03:27,039
this case, including the testimony of the witnesses, the science,

1154
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:34,519
the expert opinions offered, the medical evidence, physical evidence, the photographs,

1155
01:03:34,599 --> 01:03:38,239
and the video evidence. This trial is a combination of

1156
01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:44,800
decisions made by one person. Those decisions have forever altered

1157
01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:48,400
the futures of three families, and a view also begains

1158
01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:52,400
and your decisions forever rob Dominic and Tavian.

1159
01:03:52,639 --> 01:03:54,480
Speaker 17: Of the futures they add before none.

1160
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,480
Speaker 29: If there is one thing that can be taken away

1161
01:03:58,559 --> 01:04:01,519
from this case, evil as it is, it is this.

1162
01:04:02,599 --> 01:04:03,559
Speaker 4: Every decision we.

1163
01:04:03,639 --> 01:04:04,519
Speaker 15: Make is important.

1164
01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:09,960
Speaker 29: Every action we make is important, regardless of whether the

1165
01:04:10,039 --> 01:04:13,000
decision is a good one or a bad one. Where

1166
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:16,079
the actions are good or not, the result is the same.

1167
01:04:17,079 --> 01:04:21,159
The consequences rippled through time. It affects many more people

1168
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,719
than one might think at the time of the decision.

1169
01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:27,000
And at this point I would like to comment specifically

1170
01:04:27,079 --> 01:04:31,800
on the exhibit vio to the crash video. This is

1171
01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:35,199
the type of evidence you can never unsee. You can

1172
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:38,039
never forget the visual or audio of this ephibit.

1173
01:04:38,559 --> 01:04:40,360
Speaker 4: It is chilling and treasury.

1174
01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:43,760
Speaker 22: As you review that exhibit, you know.

1175
01:04:44,039 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 29: That you are watching the oncoming death of two people

1176
01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:50,920
and there is nothing that will stop it. The video

1177
01:04:51,119 --> 01:04:54,320
clearly shows the purpose and intent of the defendant.

1178
01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:58,679
Speaker 17: She shows a course of death and destruction of its.

1179
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:02,039
Speaker 22: To crystallizes the.

1180
01:05:02,079 --> 01:05:06,159
Speaker 29: Denny decision making of the defendant. She norse from a

1181
01:05:06,239 --> 01:05:10,599
responsible driver to literal hell on wheels, and she makes

1182
01:05:10,639 --> 01:05:14,360
her way down the street. McKenzie alone made decision to

1183
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:18,280
drive her car to drive an obscure route, the route

1184
01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:21,360
she visited a few days before, and a route not

1185
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:25,480
opportunely taken by her keenzio Lam chose the time to

1186
01:05:25,559 --> 01:05:28,639
name the drive early in the morning, when any reasonable

1187
01:05:28,719 --> 01:05:31,159
person would expect a few people who would be nearby

1188
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:35,519
to wesit or all of life saving assistance. She made

1189
01:05:35,559 --> 01:05:40,000
these decisions despite knowing, as any reasonable person would, that

1190
01:05:40,079 --> 01:05:42,920
her mission of death could have involved others. Not even

1191
01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:45,559
in the car with her are the people of the

1192
01:05:45,639 --> 01:05:47,360
car's pedestrians.

1193
01:05:48,239 --> 01:05:51,119
Speaker 4: She had a mission and she executed it with precision.

1194
01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:53,039
Speaker 17: The mission was death.

1195
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:56,400
Speaker 1: The difference between this and a jury trial is that

1196
01:05:56,519 --> 01:05:59,440
when the verdict is read in a jury trial, it

1197
01:05:59,559 --> 01:06:03,719
happens at once. Mackenzie had to listen to this judge's

1198
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:08,320
speech and slowly pieced together where she was going with it,

1199
01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:13,559
kind of like Alec Baldwin. If you saw that happen. Boy,

1200
01:06:13,599 --> 01:06:17,480
what a clusterfuck huh. Anyway, before she even got to

1201
01:06:17,559 --> 01:06:22,880
the verdict, Mackenzie knew what it would be. She sobbed

1202
01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:26,039
and listened as this judge read out guilty verdicts for

1203
01:06:26,199 --> 01:06:32,239
every single count. Her parents sat behind her, looking shocked,

1204
01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:37,440
apparently that there was going to be some accountability, a

1205
01:06:37,519 --> 01:06:41,320
word that they had apparently never heard of before. When

1206
01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:44,519
it came to her sentencing hearing in August of twenty

1207
01:06:44,639 --> 01:06:49,199
twenty three, just like any other defendant, Mackenzie's friends and

1208
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:56,880
family were permitted to speak on her behalf Natalie, I

1209
01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:57,599
just want to say it.

1210
01:06:57,559 --> 01:07:00,280
Speaker 15: In my knowledge to address them at all. Just want

1211
01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:04,639
to say to the families that I'm broken, sad and

1212
01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:07,079
lost in my heart, hurts for everyone.

1213
01:07:07,519 --> 01:07:07,800
Speaker 14: Okay.

1214
01:07:08,159 --> 01:07:10,960
Speaker 15: Davian was her room friend, and Don was the love

1215
01:07:11,039 --> 01:07:13,920
of her life and he was part of our family. Okay,

1216
01:07:14,239 --> 01:07:15,639
I'm just so sorry that this happened.

1217
01:07:15,719 --> 01:07:16,440
Speaker 4: We're heartbroken.

1218
01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 15: Okay. And then here, Honor, this was a terrible, tragic,

1219
01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:24,039
nightmare accident to have happened that she has no memory of,

1220
01:07:24,599 --> 01:07:26,639
and she will never emotionally or physically.

1221
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:28,360
Speaker 14: Recover of it, recover from it.

1222
01:07:29,639 --> 01:07:32,159
Speaker 15: She almost died too, and we're asking that you please

1223
01:07:32,239 --> 01:07:34,840
not run the sentences consecutive. He was family and we

1224
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:40,400
all loved each other. In the hospital, they have vitality post.

1225
01:07:40,719 --> 01:07:44,760
I commented on that because somebody had called her a murderer, okay,

1226
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:49,639
and she wouldn't she's not a murderer. So she didn't

1227
01:07:49,639 --> 01:07:51,440
even have her phone at that point because the police

1228
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:55,079
had still had it, Okay. So I jumped on and

1229
01:07:55,159 --> 01:07:57,760
I was like, you know, she's not a murderer. She's

1230
01:07:58,440 --> 01:07:59,480
more sad than her.

1231
01:07:59,639 --> 01:08:00,679
Speaker 3: Then these people.

1232
01:08:00,559 --> 01:08:03,719
Speaker 15: Commenting, I had called them asking him they could shut

1233
01:08:03,719 --> 01:08:05,960
down social media because people were calling her a murderer

1234
01:08:06,199 --> 01:08:09,039
and making death threats and organizing groups to you know,

1235
01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:11,039
take her out when she got out of the hospital

1236
01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:12,920
and stuff. So I don't even want her phone. I

1237
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:14,920
don't care about her phone. I don't care about social media.

1238
01:08:15,159 --> 01:08:17,600
I just wanted them to stop calling her a murderer

1239
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:20,239
so that when she did come to, and she did

1240
01:08:20,319 --> 01:08:25,079
come out of surgery, multiple surgeries, that she wouldn't see

1241
01:08:25,079 --> 01:08:26,960
all these people calling her a murder because she would

1242
01:08:27,239 --> 01:08:30,840
never ever ever murder the love of her life.

1243
01:08:31,319 --> 01:08:31,600
Speaker 14: Okay.

1244
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:34,640
Speaker 15: Everything she did after the accident was either in honor

1245
01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:37,960
of him, to be close to him or just be

1246
01:08:38,199 --> 01:08:43,720
by him anyway that she can. She's like devastated and triged.

1247
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,960
He was the air that she breathes. Okay, and they

1248
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:50,520
went with his cousin. We spend all kinds of time

1249
01:08:50,560 --> 01:08:54,399
with them after the accident. What was the other thing,

1250
01:08:56,319 --> 01:09:02,239
marry an awful very much, Dominic, Okay, I'm asking you

1251
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:05,640
for a leniency because this was a tragic action that

1252
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:09,079
she does not remember. And Dot and Davian we don't.

1253
01:09:10,079 --> 01:09:16,680
She's a new friend, and I'm so sorry. No, no, no, no, no,

1254
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:20,720
gotten no, not at all. They all they all loved

1255
01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:22,720
each other. They all spend every day together.

1256
01:09:23,159 --> 01:09:23,720
Speaker 4: You know what I mean.

1257
01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:24,039
Speaker 14: I don't.

1258
01:09:24,119 --> 01:09:29,119
Speaker 15: I don't know too much for him. Sorry that they

1259
01:09:29,239 --> 01:09:33,479
all trust each other. It's not a problem at all.

1260
01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:34,560
Speaker 2: It was wonderful.

1261
01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:40,960
Speaker 15: I understand. I understand what it looks like. I'm I'm

1262
01:09:41,239 --> 01:09:43,399
I'm saying that it was a tragic accident.

1263
01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:46,880
Speaker 14: She would never I understand, I.

1264
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,119
Speaker 15: Understand. But anyway, that's it. I just want to address

1265
01:09:52,159 --> 01:09:53,800
those We told her to go to those things, and

1266
01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:56,039
then she did go with Dom's family.

1267
01:09:56,399 --> 01:09:57,039
Speaker 14: So look at that.

1268
01:09:57,399 --> 01:09:59,680
Speaker 15: Don't look at him with the look at that look

1269
01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:02,319
on that different eyes. If you can, please, this is

1270

not at all, not at all, not at all, But

1271
01:10:07,399 --> 01:10:09,520
she's a good If you would if you have a moment,

1272
01:10:09,680 --> 01:10:11,920
all you would mean is five minutes of a conversation

1273
01:10:12,039 --> 01:10:15,239
to have with her to learn who she is. Just that,

1274
01:10:15,359 --> 01:10:17,319
you would just need five minutes to learn who she

1275
01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:19,520
is and what she's capable of not doing and doing,

1276
01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:23,800
and you would see for yourself. That's all. I'm so sorry, guys,

1277
01:10:24,199 --> 01:10:24,720
I'm sorry.

1278

01:10:34,359 --> 01:10:36,079

Speaker 1: The victim impact statements from this case are a tragic

1289
01:11:11,319 --> 01:11:16,199
juxtaposition to the empty excuses in late apologies offered by

1290
01:11:16,279 --> 01:11:20,880

1313
01:12:22,079 --> 01:12:27,159
a murder. Want to push Mackezid Shrilla for this accident.

1314
01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:32,760
This is not a car accident evident. Some signs proved

1315
01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:38,159
that McKenzie Shiella murdered my son Dominic as well as Stadium.

1316
01:12:39,319 --> 01:12:42,920
There's more fix put it in this case. This is

1317
01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:45,119
Shiroa was like to proclay.

1318
01:12:46,279 --> 01:12:46,439
Speaker 4: Well.

1319
01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:49,319
Speaker 25: The thank starts a police department in the state of

1320
01:12:49,399 --> 01:12:52,319
Ohio proceeding the truth behind this crash.

1321
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:53,560
Speaker 4: Thanks to them.

1322
01:12:54,039 --> 01:12:56,920
Speaker 17: We don't know what happened to them the car that day.

1323
01:12:57,520 --> 01:13:01,000
Speaker 25: But we don't know is why I wish I could

1324
01:13:01,079 --> 01:13:05,840
change this every day I lost three children in that crash,

1325
01:13:08,039 --> 01:13:09,880
and then it goes by each day that I don't

1326
01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:14,279
think about my son well Sadia, my Hunt's brother, wrote.

1327
01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:21,039
Speaker 17: The prize heard from the strong family in the front

1328
01:13:21,199 --> 01:13:25,640
at the Verdant are nothing more than a lack of remorse.

1329
01:13:27,159 --> 01:13:30,640
And since you were in that choice, Domin davy Lon

1330
01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:36,560
did not, we were all left carry more. July thirty first,

1331
01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:41,039
twenty twenty two, called his mother hysterical with the loss

1332
01:13:41,039 --> 01:13:42,079
of my son davy On.

1333
01:13:44,319 --> 01:13:46,640
Speaker 25: I din't because he was in the hospital and the

1334
01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:50,680
first stadium said to me was, oh, please, don't listen

1335
01:13:50,760 --> 01:13:51,800
to what everyone's.

1336
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:59,520
Speaker 17: Saying on Facebook. Yeah, my son's dead, his friend is dead.

1337
01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:01,079
Speaker 19: Checking out the.

1338
01:14:01,159 --> 01:14:04,359
Speaker 17: Most social media expensport.

1339
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,640
Speaker 30: Social media is being game in spite of the life

1340
01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:11,560
of McKenzie, as a game out.

1341
01:14:11,399 --> 01:14:15,279
Speaker 17: Of discouraging tragedy. No one can imagine the pain of

1342
01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:16,399
using a child.

1343
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:20,279
Speaker 30: Unless they must on themselves the big us for ever war.

1344
01:14:21,119 --> 01:14:27,800
I must not healing this road McKenzie prison because she didn't.

1345
01:14:29,399 --> 01:14:30,199
Speaker 4: You think holy.

1346
01:14:30,039 --> 01:14:32,560
Speaker 25: Adjuring is still alive and in the future, whatever they

1347
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:36,760
may be. Domind Davion, we loved of their futures.

1348
01:14:37,399 --> 01:14:43,119
Speaker 30: Their hopes, and their dreams. Pansy showed no mercy on Dominic,

1349
01:14:43,800 --> 01:14:46,880
or did she on davy On. Only God of this

1350
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:48,479
find anniversity on her soul.

1351
01:14:49,199 --> 01:14:49,479
Speaker 28: Thank you.

1352
01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:55,560
Speaker 31: If any reasonable person reviews exhibited at oh two, there

1353
01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:58,359
could be no doubt in your mind what happened was.

1354
01:15:00,039 --> 01:15:04,439
There can be no doubt of the absolute terror of

1355
01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:10,439
the two people in that car. The defendant controlled all

1356
01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:15,039
the events. She chose the day, specifically, she chose the

1357
01:15:15,119 --> 01:15:18,960
day just before her eighteenth birthday. She chose to drive

1358
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:22,560
the car, the time to drive the car. She chose

1359
01:15:22,600 --> 01:15:26,960
an obscure, previously scouted route through an industrial parkway. She

1360
01:15:27,119 --> 01:15:29,159
chose the target to hit from the victims.

1361
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:31,079
Speaker 4: She chose the means and.

1362
01:15:31,079 --> 01:15:34,600
Speaker 31: The method to follow through. And she planned and purposely

1363
01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:37,640
executed the events of July thiry first, twenty twenty two,

1364
01:15:39,159 --> 01:15:42,760
and the testimony the BMV official who provided evidence that

1365
01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:45,520
not only did the defendant deny any medical condition when

1366
01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:48,399
applying for her license, which her mother co signed in

1367
01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:52,159
the testeditu, but also that just after the accident, Mackenzie

1368
01:15:52,199 --> 01:15:56,079
renewed her driver's license and again denied any medical condition.

1369
01:15:57,840 --> 01:16:00,920
In fact, the defendant was so concerned about driving that,

1370
01:16:01,159 --> 01:16:04,359
as the state mentioned during the investigation, she asked if

1371
01:16:04,399 --> 01:16:07,880
they could just suspend her license for ten years. It

1372
01:16:08,039 --> 01:16:11,680
is hard to fathom all person could be concerned about

1373
01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:15,800
their driving privileges having just been responsible for the death

1374
01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:20,439
of two people. It is also important to remember that

1375
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:23,359
even if Mackenzie intended to also die in this crash,

1376
01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:28,600
that is irrelevant. A failed suicide attempt is not a

1377
01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:33,079
defense to murder, and even in a murder suicide attempt,

1378
01:16:33,079 --> 01:16:36,720
when a perpetrator executing the plans survives, the other death

1379
01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:40,920
or deaths are still murder. There's only one person who's

1380
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:43,039
responsible for the pain of everyone in this room, and

1381
01:16:43,119 --> 01:16:48,079
that person is you, Mackenzie. Nobody else is responsible. This

1382
01:16:48,239 --> 01:16:52,039
isn't the fault of Domini's family, or Daveyon's family, or

1383
01:16:52,159 --> 01:16:56,000
your family. There's a very good likelihood, Mackenzie, that you

1384
01:16:56,119 --> 01:16:57,840
will spend the rest of your life in prison.

1385
01:16:58,600 --> 01:16:59,560
Speaker 13: That won't be up to me.

1386
01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:02,880
Speaker 31: That will be up to the pearl board, and that

1387
01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:03,560
will be up to you.

1388
01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:04,720
Speaker 14: To a great extent.

1389
01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,800
Speaker 31: I understand that the pain in this room wants me

1390
01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:14,000
to impose the harshest sentence, but I don't believe that

1391
01:17:14,039 --> 01:17:18,079
would be the appropriate sentence because I do believe that

1392
01:17:18,199 --> 01:17:19,600
Mackenzie will not be out.

1393
01:17:19,479 --> 01:17:20,359
Speaker 4: In fifteen years.

1394
01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:25,640
Speaker 31: So she's sentenced on count two, the murder of Davion Flanagan,

1395
01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:30,720
fifteen years tolight. She's sentenced on count one, the murder

1396
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:35,039
of Dominic Russo, fifteen years to life, to be concurring

1397
01:17:35,079 --> 01:17:37,119
to each other, with credit.

1398
01:17:36,880 --> 01:17:37,680
Speaker 15: For time served.

1399
01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:42,199
Speaker 1: As far as we're aware, Mackenzie and her family still

1400
01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:47,800
claim her innocence to this day. Some people just never learn.

1401
01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:52,520
We have no doubt that she will exhaust her appeal efforts.

1402
01:17:53,520 --> 01:18:00,279
Seventeen year old Mackenzie Shrilla's mission was death literally, as

1403
01:18:00,359 --> 01:18:05,960
the judge said, she changed the course of history with

1404
01:18:06,159 --> 01:19:44,359
one decision and now she'll have to pay. Well, that

1405
01:19:44,560 --> 01:19:49,000
doesn't for another one. If you like the show, head
