These messages were left out of the documentary

After The Crash, text messages between Mackenzie Shirilla and Dominic Russo have resurfaced, revealing the cracks in their relationship.

The relationship between Ohio-based teenagers Mackenzie Shirilla and Dominic Russo has been in the public eye since the release of Netflix’s The Crash documentary. Dominic was tragically killed in a car crash, alongside his friend Davion Flanagan. The driver of the car, Mackenzie, was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

As part of the public court records, thousands of texts between Mackenzie and Dominic have been released, exposing the details of their relationship. This newly reported argument, obtained by The Tab, reveals the troubling dynamic between the pair.  Dominic and Mackenzie had this conversation on the 14th of January 2020, two years before Dominic’s death.
