The verdict is in for 19-year-old Mackenzie Shirilla.

The Strongsville woman, who faces multiple charges in connection with a deadly crash that killed two people last summer, is due back in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court as Judge Nancy Margaret Russo announces her decision in the case at 1 p.m.

The verdict’s announcement comes just a few days after closing arguments were made in the bench trial last week.

It's a case that dates back to Sunday, July 31, 2022, when Strongsville police say the crash happened at 6:15 a.m. near the intersection of Progress and Alameda. Upon their arrival, officers say they located a Toyota Camry “with severe damage and full airbag deployments.”

All three occupants inside the vehicle – including Shirilla – were unconscious, not breathing and trapped inside the vehicle. 20-year-old Dominic Russo (Shirilla's boyfriend) and 19-year-old Davion Flanagan were both pronounced dead at the scene.

Shirilla – who is accused of intentionally crashing the vehicle – faces multiple charges including murder, felonious assault and aggravated vehicular homicide.

The prosecution says Shirilla was going 100 miles per hour when she went off the road and crashed into a building.
