Snapped Donna Scrivo and Ramsay Scrivo

Status: Incarcerated

In Snapped Season 19, Episode 8, the story of Donna Scrivo is shown. This ends badly for her son Ramsay Scrivo in the state of Michigan.

Donna Scrivo is convicted and sentenced to life, without parole.

Defendant’s convictions arise from the death of her son, 32-year-old Ramsay Scrivo, and the dismemberment of his body, the remains of which were discovered in 12 pieces near Fred Moore Highway and Allington Road in St. Clair County.  The prosecution presented evidence that defendant drugged her son with Xanax,1 strangled him, dismembered his body, and scattered the remains along the highway.      Defendant was living with the victim at the time of his death.  The victim’s neighbors testified that they last saw him on January 24, 2014. 

On January 30, 2014, defendant was observed in a silver SUV along Fred Moore Highway and Allington Road driving slowly and disposing of something from the SUV.  Earlier that day, and also on the previous day, defendant was seen by the victim’s neighbors loading large garbage bags into her vehicle.  Later that day authorities  found  the  victim’s  remains  scattered  in  bags  along Fred  Moore  Highway  and Allington Road.  Along with the victim’s remains, authorities also found a power saw that was the same model number that witnesses recalled defendant purchasing from a Lowe’s store earlier that week.2  A subsequent search of the victim’s home did not reveal any large blood stains, but investigators did testify to a strong smell of bleach and the existence of small blood stains.  One of the victim’s neighbors also testified that between January 25 and January 30 she heard a saw being  used  and  that  during  the  same  time,  she  smelled  both  a  burning  and  chemical  odor emanating from the victim’s apartment
