The Kaylee Goncalves Foundation does business under the name "Murder Has a Name."  It is a non-profit which provides financial support to law enforcement agencies nationwide for forensic DNA testing and investigative genetic genealogy in violent crime investigations. The murder victim's family say by removing financial barriers, the foundation can help ensure cases  access to  modern forensic science, capable of identifying perpetrators and delivering answers to families.

Law enforcement agencies can apply for testing funds and the public can view their work on the "Murder Has a Name" Foundation website. You can follow their ongoing campaigns and community initiatives via the official Goncalves Family Tips Facebook Page. 

The public can also submit their DNA to GEDmatch  for free. The family points out the more people who submit their DNA,  the more cases will be solved.

Mackenzie Shirilla is serving 15 years to life at the Ohio Reformatory for Women. She was convicted on 12 counts, including murder and aggravated vehicular homicide, after deliberately crashing her car into a brick building at 100 mph. Two passengers were killed, Shirilla's boyfriend, Dominic Russo, and their friend, Davion Flanagan. Data from the car's black box showed Shirilla floored the gas pedal and never used the brakes, making calculated steering and gear adjustments before impact.  She was 17 at the time. 

The case has returned to national headlines due to the  release of the Netflix true-crime documentary series, The Crash.

Shirilla will not be eligible for her first parole hearing until October 2037.
