Mackenzie Shirilla, currently serving a 15-year-to-life sentence for murder, has secured a new job within the Ohio Reformatory for Women. Shirilla, who was convicted following a 2022 car crash that killed her boyfriend and a friend, reportedly complained about her extensive free time and boredom during recent phone calls with her mother. She expressed frustration over not having access to the prison's commissary and the slow pace of days.
Incarcerated individuals at the facility can earn up to $24 per month for their work. Shirilla's case, which involves her conviction on 12 felony charges including murder, has recently resurfaced in public consciousness due to the Netflix documentary 'The Crash.' Shirilla has maintained her innocence, claiming she did not intend to cause the fatal accident. She is not eligible for parole until October 2037.
