Was Aileen Wuornos LYING About Self Defence? (EP 07)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗔 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥: We focus only on the psychology and behaviour shown in the clips we watch, in real time. We don’t research cases, discuss motives, or cover crime details. We delve into the mind and actions of notorious serial killer Aileen Wuornos. Our in-depth discussion explores the psychology behind her behaviours, her traumatic past, and the possible mental health conditions that influenced her actions. We examine her relationships, particularly with Tyra Moore, and the role they played in Wuornos' confessions and trials. We unpack her erratic courtroom behaviour and chilling responses. We also debate the broader societal perceptions of female serial killers and the trauma often at the root of their crimes.
