Years before Mackenzie Shirilla was convicted of murdering her boyfriend, the two had a deeply troubled relationship. A series of disturbing text messages obtained by TMZ have offered a rare look inside their relationship. The messages reveal Mackenzie as highly emotional and unstable, with texts including 'I'm gonna kill someone,' 'I j want to bang my head on the wall till I'm dead,' and 'THIS IS WHY I J WANNA F***ING KMS.'
The messages also show Mackenzie discussing not being pregnant, getting tested for STDs, dealing with health issues from smoking, feeling depressed, disliking her home and complaining about how Dominic treated her. In an unusual detail, there is also a message from Dominic himself telling Mackenzie that he had crashed his mom's car.
Mackenzie Shirilla was convicted of murdering her boyfriend Dominic Russo and their friend Davion Flanagan in a fatal car crash. She was sentenced to two concurrent 15-year-to-life terms and is currently incarcerated at the Ohio Reformatory for Women in Marysville, Ohio.
