Episode Details
Back to Episodes104. Dominic Russo and Davion Flanagan (The Crash)
Description
Jamie and Kristy revisit Ohio to discuss the 2022 case featured in Netflix’s The Crash, focusing on victims Dominic Russo (20) and Davion Flanagan (19) and the events leading to their deaths when 17-year-old Mackenzie Shirilla drove a 2018 Toyota Camry into a brick building at roughly 90–100 mph. They review the night at a friend’s house, the short six-minute drive before impact, and crash data showing full throttle, no braking, and last-second steering and gear changes that suggest someone tried to stop the car. They cover background on Dominic and Davion, evidence found at the scene, the debate over intent versus a medical event (including POTS), drug-testing gaps, Shirilla’s trial and appeals, and the controversial concurrent 15-years-to-life sentence with a 2037 parole hearing.
