An Ohio judge found a teenager guilty of murder, ruling she intentionally drove her car into a brick building at 100 mph to kill her boyfriend and another passenger.

On Monday, Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Nancy Margaret Russo found Mackenzie Shirilla, 19, of Strongsville, guilty on all 12 charges she faced including murder, aggravated vehicular homicide, felonious assault and drug possession for a 2022 crash that killed her boyfriend, Dominic Russo, 20, and a friend, Davion Flanagan, 19, according to the prosecutor’s office.

The conviction carries an automatic sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole after 15 years, Cleveland.com reports.

Shirilla sobbed uncontrollably as the judge addressed the court, 3News reports.

“This was not reckless driving,” Russo said just before she handed down her verdict Monday, 3News reports. “This was murder.”

“She had a mission and she executed it with precision,” said Russo, who is not related to the victim. “The decision was death.”

According to Strongsville Police, in the early morning hours of July 31, 2022, Shirilla was driving a 2018 Toyota Camry with Russo in the front seat and Flanagan in the back seat.

The three had allegedly been smoking marijuana at a friend’s home before she got behind the wheel, Cleveland.com reports.

Shirilla allegedly had THC in her system that exceeded the legal limit in Ohio, Cleveland.com reports.

She was not charged with driving under the influence, but with murder.

According to surveillance video prosecutors showed in court, Shirilla was seen driving on Progress Drive in the Progress Drive Business Park at a normal speed.

When she turned onto Alameda Drive, she became “literal hell on wheels,” the judge said.

Shirilla was seen accelerating before jerking the wheel to the right and left before slamming into a brick building at 100 mph, leaving her and her passengers trapped in the twisted metal wreckage.

Her fuzzy Prada slipper was stuck to the gas pedal, Cleveland.com reports

“The intent was obvious upon seeing that video that there was only one goal, and the computer demonstrated that there was no attempt to slow down or stop — that it was full speed into a building and tragically it cost two people their lives,” Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael O’Malley said after the verdict came down, 3News reports.

Prosecutors maintained that Shirilla wanted to end her turbulent relationship with Russo, 3 News reports.

“There is no doubt that this happened because of the relationship with Dominic and the defendant’s intent was clearly to end that, and she took everybody that was in the car with her,” O’Malley said, 3News reports.

Russo and Flanagan were pronounced dead at the scene. Shirilla was unconscious and not breathing when she was found trapped inside the car with the others, 3News reports.

Shirilla’s attorney James McDonnell could not be reached for comment. But in court, he said prosecutors never proved that she intentionally crashed the car and that she could have lost control of the vehicle. “It’s not clear, it’s not explicit to draw the inference that she acted purposely,” McDonnell told the judge, Fox 8 reports.

Shirilla’s mother said her daughter will appeal her conviction.

GoFundMe accounts were started in memory of Flanagan and Russo after their deaths.

Isabella Guzman Murders Mother In Colorado

Isabella Guzman

Isabella Guzman was a eighteen year old teen killer from Colorado who would stab her mother to death in Colorado

According to court documents Isabella Guzman would corner her mother, Yun Hi Moy, and stab the woman nearly eighty times. When Isabella was arrested she would tell police her name was Samantha Gonzales and she had no knowledge of the brutal murder. Police did not buy her case and she would be charged with murder

However when Isabella Guzman reached court she would plead not guilty by reason of insanity and instead of spending the rest of her life in the Colorado Department of Corrections she was sent to a mental heal institution where she will remain until she no longer poses a threat to herself or others

Isabella Guzman was diagnosed with schizophrenia and had long suffered from delusions

Isabella Guzman News

Isabella Guzman was 18 years old when police say she brutally stabbed her mother to death at her mother’s home in Aurora in 2013. She pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, something prosecutors said was clear. A judge accepted the plea, sending Guzman to the Colorado Mental Health Institute at Pueblo.

In November 2020 she launched an effort to be released, telling CBS4’s Rick Sallinger she is on medication and her sanity has been restored while alleging she suffered years of abuse at the hands of her family.

Going back to the crime, court documents said Guzman’s mother, Yun Hi Moy, was stabbed 79 times in the face, neck and torso on the upstairs floor of the home. Her stepfather was home and found Guzman standing over his wife, holding a knife. Guzman ran from the home and was arrested the following day.

As the case unfolded in the summer of 2014, doctors told the court Guzman was schizophrenic and had suffered highly disturbing delusions for years.

He told the court Guzman did not believe her mother was in fact her mother. He testified Guzman believed she was killing a woman named Cecelia in order to save the world.

Prosecutors took that evidence very seriously. “We punish people who make decisions to do wrong when they knew better and they could have done something differently. And in this particular case I am convinced, based on the evidence that I’ve seen and the information that’s been presented in court, that this woman did not know right from wrong and she could not have acted differently than she did, given the significant schizophrenia and paranoid delusions, audible, visual hallucinations that she was going through. I was convinced of it and I felt like in the interest of justice I had to take these steps,” said then 18th Judicidial District Attorney George Brauchler.

At the time Brauchler said Guzman would stay at the state hospital until she was no longer a threat to herself or the community which could be days or for the rest of her life.

It was seven years later when Guzman talked with Sallinger about her mental state, saying she is ready to rejoin society.

“I was not myself when I did that, and I have since been restored to full health,” she said.

Guzman talked about a fight she had with her mother, one revealed in those 2013 court documents which included a note Guzman wrote which included the words, “You will pay.

“The fight with my mom was terrible and I was injured in the process,” Guzman told Sallinger in November 2020. “I have the scars on my hand.”

“I was abused at home by my family for many years. My parents are Jehovah’s Witnesses, and I left the religion when I was 14, and the abuse at home worsened after I quit,” she said.

Guzman alleges she has been abused while at the state hospital, filing a police report in 2015 accused an employee of sexually assaulting her in a closet. She told Sallinger there were two other incidents with that same employee.

“I was afraid that if I didn’t do what he wanted that he could ruin my life.”

She wants him prosecuted but the at the time of Guzman’s interview in November, the district attorney’s office in Pueblo said it never received a case like from the hospital police. The Colorado Department of Human Services denied CBS4’s request for information, citing privacy laws.

While Guzman would like to see that employee prosecuted, she told Sallinger what she would like most of all is to be released.

“If I could change it or if I could take it back, I would.”

Sallinger checked back in with Guzman in early March. She told him at that point a hearing on how she could have more freedom in the hospital was set for March 11 but also said it had been previously postponed.

As for the claims of assault, she said she had met with the Pueblo County District Attorney’s Office. Guzman said she was told her the way the hospital wrote the report made it difficult to pursue charges, especially given the passage of time.

The office suggested she contact the ACLU, which she is doing.

Quiana Mann 10 Yr Old Son Charged With Murder

Quiana Mann son

Quiana Mann ten year old son has been charged with the murder of his mother and now it has decided the now eleven year old boy will stand trial as an adult

According to police reports Quiana Mann ten year old son (his name has not been released even though they are charging him as an adult) was upset with his mother for waking him up early and for not buying him a gaming headset would grab a gun and shoot his mother in the face and Quiana Mann would die from her injuries

Now the court system in Wisconsin had deemed the now eleven year old child will stand trial for murder as an adult where he could face up to life in prison with no chance of parole for forty years for he does not have a major mental health illness and he understands the difference between a felony and a misdemeanor. Apparently that is enough in Wisconsin to charge a ten year old as an adult

Quiana Mann More News

An 11-year-old Wisconsin boy who allegedly killed his mother by shooting her in the face after she refused to buy him a virtual reality headset on Amazon has been deemed competent to stand trial as an adult.

The child, whose identity is not being made public, underwent review by two psychologists before Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Jane Carroll rendered the decision to try him as an adult on Thursday. Notably, the Milwaukee Sentinel Journal reported that the psychologists differed on whether the boy was truly competent or understood the nature of the crime or the charges against him.

His defense attorney told Carroll she did not believe the boy would be able to assist in the defense. The judge nonetheless deemed him prepared to stand trial as an adult, saying that the boy—who was 10 years old at the time of the November shooting—had not received a “major mental diagnosis” and had demonstrated an ability to comprehend and learn what was happening around him.

Fox News reported on Thursday that Milwaukee County prosecutor Sara Waldschmidt told the judge the child “knew his case was in adult court, that he knew his case was a felony, he knew that there were two types of cases—felonies and misdemeanors and he knew it was serious.”

Prosecutors say the boy’s mother, Quiana Mann, was doing laundry in her Wisconsin home when her son confronted her with a gun taken from a lockbox in the residence that he accessed with a key. The boy initially told authorities it was an accident and he only meant to scare his mother and shoot at the wall just behind her. Mann walked in front of the gun however and was shot in the face.

The shooting was originally ruled accidental but according to ABC’s WISN12, when police questioned the boy a second time, he said it wasn’t accidental. Instead, he told police he was angry with his mother that day because she woke him up early.

Police only questioned him a second time because Mann’s family members raised concerns with authorities that the boy had long-running rage issues and frequently acted out. They noted too that he had been undergoing therapy.

Just a day after Mann died, prosecutors say the boy purchased the virtual reality headset on his mother’s Amazon account, told his grandmother, “I’m sorry for killing my mom” and then asked whether his package had arrived.

Mann was on the cusp of completing her master’s degree in business at Concordia University before she was killed. Her mother, Lueritha Mann, accepted a posthumous degree on behalf of her daughter in May.

The tragedy has rocked the family and caused deep pain. In December, during an interview with Milwaukee NBC station WTMJ, Leuritha Mann said she had not yet talked to her grandson directly. She hoped to one day, she lamented, but couldn’t bring herself to do it.

“He took something very precious from me,” she said.

Mann’s sister, Rhonda Reid, told the station that when she spoke to the boy while he was in custody, he said he did not remember shooting his mother. He instead changed the subject of conversation to his devices.

Reid also emphasized that her nephew had a long history of mental health issues. When her sister was killed, she said in the December interview, her nephew had already been receiving treatment for mood disorders. She also said her nephew reported hearing multiple imaginary voices. Part of the solution prescribed to him by therapists was less time on electronic devices. Reid said her sister was doing what doctors recommended and limiting or removing his access to electronic devices or violent games.

The 11-year-old was charged this January with first-degree intentional homicide. He is next slated to appear in court on Sept. 5 for a preliminary hearing.

In Wisconsin, children as young as 10 can be charged as adults for certain severe crimes including first-degree intentional homicide, first-degree reckless homicide and attempted first-degree intentional homicide.

CJ Haynie Murders Family In Utah

CJ Haynie Utah

CJ Haynie was a sixteen year old teen killer from Utah who would murder his mother and three siblings

According to court documents CJ Haynie also known as Colin Jeffery “CJ” Haynie would plan the murder of his entire family. CJ Haynie would fatally shoot mother Consuelo Alejandra Haynie, 52, his two sisters, Alexis, 15, and Milan 12, and his brother Matthew, 14. CJ would also shoot his father who would survive his injuries

After pleading guilty the now nineteen year old teen killer has learned that he must serve 100 years in prison before he is eligible for release as the judge sentenced him to four consecutive sentences of twenty five years to life

CJ Haynie 2023 Information

CJ Haynie has yet to enter the Utah Department Of Corrections

CJ Haynie News

Colin Jeffery “CJ” Haynie was sentenced Wednesday to four consecutive terms of 25 years to life for shooting his mother and three siblings when he was 16.

The judge sentenced Haynie, 19, to the maximum sentence of 25 years to life for each of the five counts after pleading guilty to the crimes. Four of the counts running consecutively, which is 100 years. The last count running concurrent with the others.

Haynie was just 16 years old in 2020 when he shot and killed his mother Consuelo Alejandra Haynie, 52, his two sisters, Alexis, 15, and Milan 12, and his brother Matthew, 14. Haynie then shot his dad, Colin, but hit him in the leg. His dad then wrestled the gun away.

Haynie shot each of them as they returned home.

“Why? It’s the question that’s been haunting everybody. Why? Well, Jeffrey says I was angry at my father. He said dealing with his father made him anxious, so what does Jeffrey do he decided to kill them all,” said prosecutor Scott Broadhead, as he asked the judge to give Haynie the maximum sentence. “This was not a single incident of mass murder. This wasn’t walking into a school and unloading your gun this was planned, it was methodical it was four separate incidents over a five-hour period.”

That’s why Broadhead said Haynie doesn’t deserve to see the light of day again.

“This is not a rehabilitation case. It’s a punishment case. Someone who murders four people, including three children that he knew and cared about, should never be free,” he said.

In the days following the shootings, Colin Haynie released a statement through his attorney.

“As you can imagine, this loss is almost unbearable,” it stated. “Colin has asked me to express his and the family’s profound appreciation for the support given by friends, extended community, law enforcement, and health care providers. Colin was also wounded on Friday, but he expects to recover fully from those injuries.”

Haynie’s attorney pleaded for mercy, asking the judge to run the sentences concurrently, which would put all five counts at 25 years to life. He played a video of Haynie’s graduation showing how Haynie is a changed person.

“The juvenile has demonstrated maturity and rehabilitation sufficient for a chance at life not behind the prison walls,” said Richard Van Wagoner, Haynie’s attorney.

In a surprising message and reaction, Haynie’s own brother, Danny, who was away at college during the shooting, said all of this could have been avoided had his brother gotten the help he needed, saying his dad, Colin was partially to blame for that.

“He was robbed by not getting proper help. While [Jeffrey] may not blame Colin [his dad] anymore for anything. I do because this could have been prevented. This is something I kept silent for too long,” said Danny Haynie via a conference call in court.

Danny pointed to an incident about a month before the shootings where Jeffrey had a conversation with his mom and said some pretty “dark” things.

“This was clearly a dark enough of a red flag to act on. It wasn’t acted on. The irony now is Jeffrey has ended up in jail, and my family is dead,” Danny said.

Clean cut, well groomed, and dressed in a suit, Jeffrey Haynie did speak before sentencing, saying he hopes people can forgive his actions.

“I can ask for forgiveness for my crimes and my mistakes. I want to make sure that people understand that my mistakes in the past are something I will not do again and I have learned from what I have done,” CJ Haynie said, who showed no emotion at all during the entire court proceedings, even when gruesome pictures of his family members where shown of their murders

Willard Noble Miller Gets Life For Teachers Murder

willard noble miller photos

Willard Noble Miller is going to spend at least the next thirty five years in prison for the murder of his Spanish teacher Nohema Graber

According to court documents Willard Noble Miller and Jeremy Everett Goodale would stalk 66-year-old Nohema Graber before beating the teacher to death with a baseball bat. Apparently the motive behind the murder is she gave the teen killer a bad grade

Willard Noble Miller and Jeremy Everett Goodale would soon be arrested and the two have been fighting to keep the murder case in juvenile court however they would lose this battle and both would be charged as adults

Both Willard Noble Miller and Jeremy Everett Goodale would plead guilty to first degree murder and would have received a life sentence without parole however the teen killers were both under the age of eighteen

Willard Noble Miller was the first to be sentenced and he would be sentenced to life however is eligible for parole after 35 years

Jeremy Everett Goodale is to be sentenced in August and since he had a plea deal with prosecutors where he was going to testify against Miller chances are his eligibility date will be a bit earlier however he will still receive a life sentence

Willard Noble Miller More News

Willard Chaiden Noble Miller will be in his 50s by the time he is eligible for parole.

Judge Shawn Showers sentenced the 17-year-old Thursday to life in prison with parole eligibility to come after 35 years. The sentence is slightly harsher than the 30-year minimum that prosecutors had asked for.

The sentence comes after Willard Noble Miller pled guilty to first-degree murder and admitted involvement in the death of 66-year-old Nohema Graber, a beloved Spanish teacher at Fairfield High School.

Normally, first-degree murder carries a mandatory sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole. However, a decision by the Iowa Supreme Court ruled that such a sentence for juveniles amounts to cruel and unusual punishment, and is unconstitutional. While Willard Noble Miller was charged and tried as an adult, his sentence must include parole eligibility at some point, Showers said.

“I think you’re very fortunate, Mr. Miller, that the state of Iowa does not allow the option of life without the possibility of parole,” Showers said, “because that would have been a serious consideration for me if I had that option.”

A co-defendant, Jeremy Everett Goodale, is slated to be sentenced separately this August after also pleading guilty to first-degree murder. Goodale, now 18, had previously planned to testify against Miller as part of an undisclosed agreement with prosecutors.

The two teens admitted involvement to varying degrees in the death of Graber, who was brutally beaten with a baseball bat at Chautauqua Park in Fairfield on Nov. 2, 2021. Willard Noble Miller denied ever hitting Graber, while Goodale’s statement stipulated that both teens struck the teacher.

On Thursday, Miller offered an apology but continued to deny that he struck Graber as his co-defendant and prosecutors say.

“I would like to take this opportunity to wholeheartedly accept responsibility for that role that I played in the murder of Nohema Graber,” Willard Noble Miller said. He apologized for his actions to the Graber family, his family, Goodale’s family, and the Fairfield community. He also gave condolences for Paul Graber, Nohema Graber’s husband who died last week.

Then, he pled to the judge.

“I’d ask that I’d be given a chance,” Miller said. “I don’t want to be institutionalized, I don’t want to be in for so long that I forget about where I come from and what I need to do.”

Ten victim impact statements followed, some more pointed than others. All providing details about what made them cherish Nohema Graber.

Tom Graber, Nohema Graber’s brother-in-law, said the murder played a role in his brother Paul’s death. He said he didn’t buy Miller’s apology and suggested that Showers open parole eligibility no sooner than after 30-35 years.

“Paul was deeply and understandably depressed by the murder of Nohema, and his life ended last week from the ravages of a metastatic cancer that would have been caught and treated far sooner had Nohema been there,” Tom Graber said.

Willard Noble Miller did not show much emotion at the hearing, but at times during Tom Graber’s statement shook his head subtly, particularly as Tom Graber’s statement turned directly toward Miller’s actions, calling him a coward for allegedly striking Nohema Graber with a bat from behind.

He spoke of how Nohema Graber had previously identified Willard Noble Miller as a student she struggled to reach. After Nohema Graber’s home was vandalized during Fairfield’s homecoming, Tom Graber said Paul Graber had spoke of a dark-haired kid in Nohema Graber’s class, textbook closed and rarely participating.

“Just sitting there, glaring malevolently,” Tom Graber recalled. “She tried many ways to reach him, and nothing seemed to work. She also met with his parents: nothing seemed to work. Never before had she had a student she couldn’t reach. That student was Willard Chaiden Miller.”

In a day-long hearing, prosecutors laid out evidence that would have been presented at trial. That Willard Noble Miller had searched on Google what would happen to students’ grades if a teacher died or was seriously injured during the term. That Miller created a note several days before the murder discussing plans and items needed. That Miller recruited Goodale to assist, and that Miller had surveilled Nohema Graber and determined what her patterns were.

Prosecutors also said that the day prior to Nohema Graber’s death the teens were prepared to murder her at the park, but their plans were foiled because Nohema Graber was attending a church event. Then, the day Nohema Graber was killed, prosecutors laid out evidence that both teens had struck her with a baseball bat, drove her van away from the scene and hid it, and then returned to the scene in the middle of the night to finish concealing her body.

She was reported missing the next morning, and police determined quickly she was last seen at the park. A search later found her on an embankment near railroad tracks at the park, wrapped in a gray tarp and covered by a wheelbarrow and railroad ties. Snapchat messages from Goodale, shared by a friend he sent them to, implicated Miller and Goodale in the murder, investigators testified.

An investigator said Willard Noble Miller’s name was already on a list of persons of interest due to prior comments he had made about Nohema Graber, but that the messages brought Goodale to their attention for the first time. While Miller was failing Nohema Graber’s class, Goodale had passed her class prior.

The hearing also detailed Miller’s hopes to study abroad in Spain, and a concern that his failing grade would block him from that opportunity. He frequently complained about Nohema Graber’s teaching style that he characterized as old school. He told friends he preferred another Spanish teacher that taught Spanish I, which he passed.

Another brother-in-law of Nohema Graber, Jim Graber, suggested that Miller make right with the Lord.

“I would hope you open your soul to the Lord, and maybe ask for forgiveness there first,” he said. “Because you’re on a spiral straight to hell.”

Some family members of Nohema Graber talked about the potential forgiveness of Miller. Nohema Graber’s son Christian Graber said he thought Miller’s family was decent and he hoped one day Miller could be too.

“I’ve got no hate in my heart for you,” he said, speaking without prepared remarks directly at Miller. “And I’ve met your mother on several occasions … she seems like a decent woman and always treated me with kindness and respect. And I met your grandmother yesterday, before the funeral of my father, and we had decent conversations. And I feel sorry for you, and I really feel sorry for your mother and your grandmother and all your family — they seem like decent people.

“I still think that there’s a potential for you to become a decent person as well. I don’t see it at the moment, but I really hope that one day you can be and I’d be very happy to help you become a good person and to really change your life and turn it around. I really mean this, there’s still hope for you.”

Willard Noble Miller appeared to nod yes and wiped his nose and eyes at the conclusion of Christian Graber’s remarks.

After the hearing, Miller was taken from the courtroom and will be sent to the Iowa Medical Classification Center in Oakdale, starting with the Youthful Offenders Program before being transferred into adult prison when he turns 18 on Aug. 9.
