Reacting to Netflix’s ‘The Crash’ Documentary: Mackenzie Shirilla’s Shocking Case Explained

Stephanie· Host0:00

[upbeat music] Hello, and welcome to She's All Batch. I'm Stephanie, and today we are changing things up a little bit because I watched a documentary on Netflix that I highly recommend. And the last time I covered a true crime documentary on this podcast, that episode blew up, so I really think you're gonna like this one. So the documentary is called The Crash, and basically the log line is a teen slams her car into a building, killing her boyfriend and his friend. What seems like a tragic accident becomes a murder case in this documentary. So we are going to break down this entire documentary. If you haven't watched it yet, pause this, go watch it and come back. With me I have returning guest, friend of the show, Sugar Teets, Courtney Robertson, joining me to help me unpack The Crash. Courtney, welcome back once again to She's All Batch.
