I watched “The Crash” on Netflix about Mackenzie Shirilla, the 17 year old girl who was convicted of double murder for the crash that killed her boyfriend and his friend. I remember seeing this story in the news when it was unfolding and have also seen a few other documentaries on it. I fully think she was guilty and was adequately tried and convicted. I’m shocked to see opinions on socials with the belief that they think she was overcharged (should’ve been charged with manslaughter, reckless homicide, involuntary manslaughter, etc instead of murder), or even that she’s innocent, suffered a medical episode and the crash was a complete accident.. This made me realize that she would’ve probably had a better chance convincing one or two people on a jury that the crash was accidental, leading to a hung jury OR if the jurors with the belief that she wasn’t guilty of murder being convicted enough, being able to convince others of that. Wouldn’t it be more certain for a judge to find her guilty of murder than a jury?

Why do you think she chose a bench trial over a jury trial? For lawyers or those familiar with the courts/Ohio, what would you advise your client to choose in this case and why?

Not here to discuss her guilt or intention, but just purely the choice to choose a bench over jury trial and why

I’m kind of over all the negative opinions, virtue signaling and just nitpicking literally every aspect of the show, especially all the random irrlevant bits that people have opinions on, so looking to hear from people who are enjoying season 3 and have a discussion! This isn’t to bash the viewers that don’t like this season, you’re entitled to your opinions, but just looking to hear the positives of this season from those who have some.

I think this season is different because of when it’s airing. Now, moreso than in 2018 when the first season aired, fans of shows have open and “live” dialogue about each episode, whereas before I think you’d watch it and move on, or maybe discuss it with some friends and keep it pushing. Nowadays it’s hard to filter out opinions on socials. Not saying it’s a bad thing but I do think it contributes to overanalyzing and nitpicking minute details and finding lots of issues and not being able to just watch and enjoy a show for what it is.

For context I’m watching the show the same way I’ve always watched, I tune in on Sundays, watch the episode and watch it like any other show. I’m not looking to relate to it or identify with any characters, I expect the show to be dark, raunchy and out there. After I watch I go about my night and live life. I’m not looking to critique every aspect of the show, directors, actors, writing, etc..

TLDR: For people who are enjoying the season, what do you like about it and why? Let’s chat!

This will be my 3rd interview with the company. They just recently asked me to come to the office & said “plan to be on campus for about 4 hours plus lunch to meet with the team.” For context, this job is in college sports, marketing and revenue. I’ve worked in sports my entire career and have a masters in my field as well but a 4 hour interview and lunch seems daunting. Also for what it’s worth I don’t have much experience in the specific area that this job is in. I’ve worked in professional sports my whole career but this is in collegiate athletics, also at a major sports school in my area. They said I’d meet with the athletics dept, assuming the AD, some coaches of programs and other employees of athletics, but what should I expect? Do you think this will be informal and just meeting with the team to see if we connect? Interview style? What could we possibly be doing for 4+ hours?

I’m nervous because while I’m intelligent and extroverted, I have a hard time in group interview settings because I’m a perfectionist and harp on answering the question right and sometimes rush to start speaking and realize I didn’t actually answer the question. I guess I’m saying I’m not always great at articulating my strengths or answering questions that are meant to trip me up. Also I’m fearing I need to memorize everything about this schools athletics department and programs out of fear of not knowing something… Also, given that I’ve never worked in collegiate sports I feel underqualified for this role in all honesty.

Any tips? Any similar stories? Help me pleaaaaase!

TLDR: What should I expect from a 4+ hour interview? How do I prepare for it?
