Aileen Wuornos is one of the most infamous killers in American history, often reduced to a label and a caricature. This episode of Unmarked examines what actually happened—and why.

Through on-location reporting in Florida, primary source interviews, and a close analysis of the crimes, this episode traces Wuornos’s trajectory from lifelong abuse and instability to a clear pattern of escalating violence. It focuses on the moments where ambiguity gives way to repetition, and where personal pathology intersects with systemic failure.

This is not a retelling of myth or spectacle. It is an examination of responsibility, escalation, and the conditions that allow violence to repeat unchecked, until it becomes impossible to ignore.

UNMARKED: A true crime podcast built on real cases and never-before-heard audio.
