She was called America's first female serial killer. The movie won Charlize Theron an Oscar. The verdict was unanimous. And yet, the more closely you examine the actual record of Aileen Wuornos — the evidence withheld from jurors, the immunity deal that turned her closest companion into a witness against her, the self-defense claims that were never fully tested — the less settled the case looks.

This episode traces the full arc of who Wuornos was before she became a headline: a child sexually abused by her grandfather in Troy, Michigan, expelled from every institution meant to protect her, working the highways as a sex worker by her mid-teens, and surviving through constant, exhausting calculation. By the time she met Tyria Moore at a South Daytona bar in 1986, she had spent two decades learning that men were dangerous and that no one was coming to help her.

Then came the seven killings along the Florida highway corridor between 1989 and 1990. The prosecution built a case around a predatory killer. Wuornos said every shot was self-defense. The jury never heard that Richard Mallory — her first victim — had a prior conviction for violent sexual offense. The phone calls that produced her confession were engineered by detectives who had already offered Moore full immunity.

Was she a cold-blooded killer? A woman defending herself with the only tools she had? The execution in 2003 closed the legal question. It didn't close the moral one. This episode sits inside that gap.
