Mackenzie Shirilla, who is serving a life sentence for intentionally crashing a vehicle at high-speed into a brick wall and killing two passengers, is arguing in new court filings that her original trial and imprisonment violated her federal constitutional rights.
Shirilla, 22, filed a federal habeas corpus petition on Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. The filing asks a federal judge to set aside her murder conviction and grant a new trial.
