In this episode of Voices of a Killer, we talk to Floridian and convicted killer, Aaron Stimus. In July 2002, Aaron woke up in a hospital bed to discover that he had just survived a gunshot wound to the head and that he was being charged with first-degree murder. Today we hear Aaron’s account of that fateful summer’s evening. We’ll hear about the hostile divorce proceedings, the life-ruining painkillers, and the police oversight that culminated in one chaotic and emotionally fraught July evening. Throughout, we’ll scrutinize the plausibility of Aaron’s account. Is this a man living in denial or a man who’s been wrongfully accused of premeditated murder for the past 20 years?
