Mackenzie Shirilla, the Ohio criminal, has constantly been in the limelight after the release of The Crash on Netflix. For those unaware, in 2022, when she was only 17 years old, Mackenzie killed her boyfriend, Dominic Russo, 20, and their friend, Davion Flanagan, by slamming her car into a brick building. While she and her parents have maintained that the crash was nothing more than an accident, prosecutors had argued that it was intentional, leading her to be convicted of the crime. Amid this, a call between Mackenzie and her mom, Natalie, has come to light, where the former says she wants to become a life coach after prison.
While it has only been a few years since Mackenzie was sentenced, it seems that the now-21-year-old is already looking ahead and making plans for what she wants to do next. Recently, TMZ obtained an undated phone call between Mackenzie and her mom, Natalie, where she opens up about the new purpose she sees for herself – becoming a life coach.

In the audio, Natalie can be heard telling her daughter that she has been through a lot. According to her, these experiences could someday lead Mackenzie to help others. Soon Mackenzie embraces the idea, even though she is currently serving two concurrent sentences of 15 years to life. Although this exchange between the mother-daughter duo is brief, it highlights the kind of life Mackenzie envisions once she is no longer behind bars and the impact she hopes to make upon her release.

The same outlet had obtained another audio call between Mackenzie and her mother, but compared to the aforementioned one, this call was not only graphic but also emotional. While recalling the car crash which landed her in prison, Mackenzie asks her mom, Natalie, why she was the only one who survived while her boyfriend, Dominic Russo, and their friend, Davion Flanagan, ended up dead. Being unable to process it, she remarked:
“How did I not die?”

Mackenzie then went on to tell that she regularly has intrusive thoughts about Dominic and Davion's fatal injuries. Baring her thoughts to her mother and describing the victims' conditions after the crash, she revealed that whenever she would lie awake at night, vivid images would pop into her head all of a sudden. She said that just the thought of their deaths makes her want to vomit. This conversation between Mackenzie and Natalie reflects the former's state of mind after the crash.

All of Mackenzie's jail calls with her mother, Natalie, reflect her state of mind at the time. In another call that had been obtained earlier by People, Mackenzie can be heard opening up to her mom about the realities of her life in Cuyahoga County Jail after her double-murder conviction. She complained to her mom about how she “doesn't want to live here with these people,” since she was surrounded by the likes of "murderers [and] kidnappers", as Natalie called them. Trying to calm her daughter down, Natalie said:
“But anyway, since you have to spend time here, we all knew you were going to anyway, it doesn't sound so, so bad.”

Further in the conversation, Mackenzie told her mom that she hopes her parents won't need to sell their house. Revealing her fears about the future, she said:
“I feel like I want to live off the grid, like, and I'm just — I'm just I'm thinking about like how I'm just gonna be like old when I get out of jail and like, I don't know, like I'm not gonna be able to have kids or like a family and sh-- like that.”
