Miss American Serial Killer: Aileen Wuornos Ep 3

Explicit content warning

The True Crime Librarian

Aileen was now a killer, her first victim Richard Mallory dead from multiple gunshot wounds, and now she has found a better way at robbing these men... kill them first- she claims self-defense in each and every victim's case but not all were out to rape and beat her.
PTSD can make the mind see and hear completely different things than what is actually going on- for Lee the repeated rapes she suffered came to a head and burst into an uncontrolled burning rage within Lee. Triggered possibly by finding herself alone with a man in the woods and her fight or flight response kicked in causing her to take the lives of David Spears, Charles "Chuck" Carskaddon, and Peter Siems but she wouldn't stop at just these men... she was going to keep killing and keep robbing them until one beat her to death or until the cops figured her out...

Miss American Serial Killer: Aileen Wuornos Ep 2

Aileen and Ty meeting created tsunamis in their life together, they both loved each other (Lee would later say like sisters, however, Ty had been introduced as Lee's Wife on more than one occasion) but never the less these two were virtually inseparable from June of 1986 into 1991 when Lee would be arrested for the murder of 7 men and faced the electric chair for her crimes.

Lee desperate for love and acceptance turned her to the only person she could trust, Tyria. Lee did anything and everything to make sure Ty stayed in her life, even killing in order to support their dream bubble for as long as possible, and a wrong-place, wrong-time scenario landed Richard Mallory in a chance encounter with an angry Lee who claims to have acted in self-defense when the sex-crazed Richard went rouge and decided to rape her... per her side of the story...
