At first, her family tried convincing themselves there had to be a reasonable explanation. But as the days passed with no calls, no texts, and no sign of Kelsey, panic started setting in. Inside her condo, everything looked as though she had simply stepped out for a moment and never came back. Her belongings were still there, unfinished food sat untouched, and small details inside the apartment began making investigators increasingly uneasy. Meanwhile, the one person who should have been most desperate to find her, Kelsey’s fiancé and the father of her child, appeared strangely calm…

Since her sentence to prison for the crash that killed her boyfriend and his friend, Mackenzie Shirilla has largely remained out of the public eye. Netflix's Crash recently introduced the case to a whole new audience, but many of these conversations were never featured in the documentary.

In these candid conversations, Mackenzie opens up about life behind bars, her hopes for the future, the attention surrounding her case, and the challenges of adjusting to her new reality. Dive into the prison calls that offer an unfiltered look at what Mackenzie has been saying from behind bars…
