Crime with a K

54. Aileen Wuornos - The Florida Highway Killer


Listen Later

This week Kelsie walks us through Aileen Wuornos, also known as the Florida highway killer. Ever since she was born, Aileen had gone through a lot of traumatic events in her life, and when she got older would go on to commit murder against seven men. All of the men were found along highways in Florida with their vehicles ditched miles away. The items taken from the cars would be pawned off for cash. Aileen received six death sentences and is still to this day discussed in cases of the death penalty and mental health. Make sure you're following as we upload new episodes every Monday. As always, thank you for listening!
