Aileen Wuornos: podcast appearances and interviews

Aileen Carol Wuornos was an American serial killer known for committing a series of murders in Florida. Between 1989 and 1990, Wuornos shot, killed, and robbed seven of her male clients while engaged in street prostitution along highways. She initially claimed that her victims had either raped or attempted to rape her, and that her homicides were acts of self-defense. However, she later abandoned this defense. Wuornos was sentenced to death for six of the murders and spent more than ten years on Florida's death row before her execution in 2002. Her crimes and subsequent legal proceedings drew significant media attention and public interest.
