## Resource

Aileen Wuornos is often labeled America’s first female serial killer—but her story is far more complicated than that. In this episode of Twisted and Mysterious , we follow Aileen’s life from a traumatic childhood to the murders of seven men along Florida’s highways. She claimed self-defense. Prosecutors called it calculated murder. So what really happened? This is a story about survival, violence, and the uncomfortable space where victim and perpetrator collide. Thank you for listening!
