I dont admire her, but i pity her and while all people have personal responsibility for what they've done, she wasnt the same as a person up and choosing to do horrid things.

But in the end, too crazy to be put to death. Imho.
Yes she did. I think if I was in that position where I was fairly sure there was no way out, I'd prefer to get it over as fast as possible rather than sitting in a cell for who knows how many months or years, wondering if I was ever going to get a break with about the same odds as winning the hundred million lottery, y'know? That alone has got to wear someone's sanity down, little by little.she really resighned to her fate at the end, dropping all her appeals and basically saying fuck ya'll i am going on a spaceship lol
There isn't anything to be scared of anymore.She's the only Serial Killer I'm scared of.
As long as you arent a prostitute hatin john, you're fine.She's the only Serial Killer I'm scared of.
Arlene Pralle
Arlene Pralle, a "born-again" Christian who ran a horse breeding and boarding facility near Ocala, had seen Wuornos's picture in a newspaper and wrote her a letter. "My name is Arlene Pralle," she began, "I'm born-again. You're going to think I'm crazy, but Jesus told me to write you." After a few collect phone calls, she became Wuornos’ adviser and defender. On November 22, 1991, Arlene Pralle and her husband legally adopted Aileen Wuornos. Pralle said God had told her to.
I have to say guys, over in the U.S. you seem to have a lot of christ insane nutters compared with other places.
bullshit, imho.
Even if the first was rape,,,, even IF, stop putting yourself in that situation afterwards for one. For another, she CLEARLY killed for monetary gain, so how is that self defense?
A prostitute being raped, that many times???? Nah.....
And I've said it before I'll say it again, crazy in the legal sense is NOT the same as crazy in the mentally ill sense. Did she know she was doing wrong? IMO, and in the opinion of the people that convicted her, yes. That's what "legally sane" means.
She'd have killed again imo, Reason enough to Never Let Her Out To Do So.
(Because life doesn't always mean life)
Wow! So it's just that cut and dried for you is it? Well...the way I look at it is that not you nor those jurors that convicted her had her fucked up life when she was growing up... Or if they did...maybe they had the psychiatric resources available to deal with it... Lee did not... But does that make it ok for her to kill those men? Hell no...it's the same old argument about how a lot of people were abused as children but didn't grow up and become a serial killer... I include myself in that category which is probably why I can sympathize with her... But I think she needed ongoing psychiatric intervention to deal with the things that she had to deal with growing up...NOT multiple death sentences... Maybe if she'd have had that even as a teen...those men would still be alive today... Oh and then there was your little quote... "Because life doesn't always mean life" Well...actually... The last I heard...life WITHOUT possibility of parole means EXACTLY that... NO chance of parole! Which could have also been utilized for additional counseling or whatever treatment that psychiatrists felt would be the most beneficial to her... But no...she was written off like yesterdays donuts while cops actually tried to get a movie deal out of it... Talk about BULLSHIT!! smh I don't know you personally LDG... You may actually be a pretty awesome individual but I have a feeling we're just going to have to end up agreeing to disagree on this one...
So what were her victims guilty of, where would have been their justice if she had have gotten psychiatric help and treated with kid gloves? Is it rational to see them as the perp's and her as the victim? All they did was pay for sex and ended getting blown away (excuse the pun) for their trouble. She was executed and rightly so.
