Above is Aileen Wournos and she is my first female serial killer. Women have been murdering serially for as long as men, though their victims are usually family members or friends and acquaintances. Women usually use poison to kill, but Wournos was different. She killed strangers with a gun, the strangers were her johns. She was a prostitute who murdered to protect her girlfriend. She was a killer that had absolutely no remorse.

She had no remorse but lied constantly when she was caught. She would say they tried to rape her, but she was a prostitute. She tried to receive remorse from others saying "she never had a chance" bringing up facts from her life as she grew up. She was abandoned by her mother, who left her with her grandmother and is said to have had an incestuous relationship with her brother.

Aileen wasn't considered very pretty to most people but her girlfriend loved her. She quit her job as a motel maid and stayed at home while Wournos took care of them from her earnings as a prostitute. After the money ran short she began to kill. Aileen Wournos killed 7 men and though she took a plea bargain she received to six death sentences.


Safety Tips

• Most prostitutes have guns, tazors, and many other forms of "protection" on them. You should too.
• If going to a remote spot with a prostitute or stripper do not go into an area in which you are unfamiliar of.
