Aileen Wuornos | Confessions of a Serial Killer | S1E05 

Same

Exactly. You two are, obviously, especially empathic. Well done.

@@rhondasisco-cleveland2665 I’m very empathetic. Sometimes it’s a hinderance because it feels like I’m absorbing other peoples pain. Bit I’d rather be an empathetic person than a cold hearted one.

@@ChristinaTodd1970 I understand. It’s hard in this world, where people have become so self righteous, unforgiving and judgmental. They don’t seem to know that it’s wrong. It actually speaks against that in the Bible. I worry for them. Keep speaking up. I’m with you.

female privilege is why

I COMPLETELY agree! That one guy makes me so angry saying, "She could have stopped the interaction." Meaning stop a guy from beating her up. He's absolutely clueless!!

My mother was molested as a child and suffered horribly, she still didn't turn into a serial killer!

Right? One is seemingly misogynistic. Totally clueless about the difficulties some women have faced.

@@AnimeShinigami13 so effing what good for you and her

RIGHT!!

IKR!! Ugh!!

Thank you - I came here to say the same thing!! He has a privileged and sheltered view of real life for poor, abused, used and uneducated women - the "throw away" people of society. Aileen had very, very few options and was abused by almost every single person she ever encountered her entire life. None of it excuses what she did, but the poor lady never had a chance.

watch how he reacts if you say the same thing about the jews and how their lifestyles and treatment of others and choices less to their destruction...all hell would break loose.

She wanted to save her own skin.

And she took the wrap in the face of betrayal. Let us not forget the victims but also understand why

Our environments cannot immediately rule out or be used as a way to justify our actions. She made a choice, everytime after the first murder, she put herself in the same spots, isolated, and with people she knew could be dangerous and almost took enjoyment in getting to throw her anger on them when she was given the opportunity. She could have arguably been given a life sentence but any less would be making unexceptable exceptions. No matter what environment she grow up in she clearly had an understanding of what she was doing and that it was wrong.

@@jaredbanister6880 Do you know our personalities are formed in our first 3 years of life? Think about that.

@@rhondasisco-cleveland2665 Yes, and we also know that people understand the basics of what's right and wrong and she made it quite obvious she knew she was wrong to kill them. After the first and second times she still put herself in the most dangerous and unpredictable situations she could have, knowing the situation could end the same way as before. She took it as far as possible too by causing as much damage as she could at a time by spending up all her shells shooting each victim multiple times. She could not hide behind her past as making the murders she committed any more acceptable then another murder, especially when she admits she knew it was wrong. It's okay to hold sympathy for her background because it does play a role in her actions but it is does take complete authority in her decisions. There is a great mystery in the human mind but one thing is clear and that all murderers and criminals understand the wrongs their committing which is why they work so hard to cover them up. She even asked that one girl whether or not someone was listening to them showing she understood the severity of her multiple crimes.

@@jaredbanister6880 not sympathy, EMPATHY. I don’t think any of us can, or should, sit in judgment. We weren’t there. We weren’t subjected to the same horrors. We DONT KNOW if we would have come out better, under exactly the same circumstances. Justice was served, why do we feel we have the right to continue to condemn her? How does that help? “Judge not, lest ye be judged.” It’s forbidden, so we are only hurting ourselves. We don’t have the excuse that we are crying out for justice, she already paid the highest price. What Christ expects from us is humility, kindness & forgiveness. Self righteousness is a sin. Judgment is a sin. Unforgivness is a sin. You can do what’s you want, but my mission is to try to turn the tide, for you and whoever else reads it. I’m sticking with my statement. I choose justice with mercy, understanding, and humility. I follow God, she is gone from the earth and only God SHOULD be judging her now. It’s HIS place. (No, it’s not easy, it’s work, but it’s His work; so I keep trying.) You choose who to follow, but do so understanding what you are choosing. Who you are choosing. You can’t say no one tried to awaken you. Do what you will.

@@rhondasisco-cleveland2665 That's right judgement was served and therefore we should not be trying to be defending her when she met it clear multiple times she understood tmwhat she was doing. Yes, we do not know how we would come out but just like the detective normally not as murderers which she is and since she did not try anything she was doing to avoid committing the same crime was not very ashamed. You cannot go around saying that she does not bear full responsibility for her actions, her choices. God also spoke to the Hebrews about punishing those who committed murder, and he did not say unless you deem their background as an excuse for their actions. There is no reason to make excuses for her and perhaps you assume I'm being harsh but even Biblically we are never told to punish differently based on someone's background. We are judged on our sins alone not those done against us in our past. The past is not an excuse, and if anything normally leads people to try to oftentimes be different then those who mistreated them. If she had killed those men in self defense she would not have tried to hide the events. Even in the Bible when the Israelites took Jericho they were told that if anyone took anything from the city they'd be killed, and when a man took some things from the city wreckage he was killed as they'd told him and everyone else.

Yes

Yeah it was good, I hate they executed her in 12 years which is relatively soon, versus some men who have done horrific things linger on death row for 20 or more years!

Read the books..way better than that movie..More to her real life and a indepth look into her past..

" Dear Dawn " letters from Aileen to her bff Dawn while on death row very interesting read 📚

This woman was different, she killed MEN. Think of the crimes that are more harshly punished. 30 years for armed robbery vs 3 years for child molestation or rape? Crimes against MEN frighten MEN, who makes the laws and statutes? Men value money and THEMSELVES. Plus, they are less likely to be victims of sexual assault & MORE LIKELY TO BE PERPETRATORS. Their empathies lay with THEMSELVES. Crimes against MEN are more important and more harshly punished. IMO

@@rhondasisco-cleveland2665 what women get the lighter sentences for killing men look it up

💝

its not an excuse , women dont give male killers with a bad childhood this pass

I absolutely believe it is a damn shame her grandfather couldn’t be executed with her. He put this all in motion, without his EVIL she most likely would never have murdered. I’m sure he faced accountability before our creator. Luke 17:2 “It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.”

Let me also say there were at least two men here that did get the real picture.

The overkill that guy talks about should go to her defence feeling so threatened but instead the guy mentioning it believes it points to her guilt.

So that one guy thinks it's more right for abused women to kill themselves when faced with abuse again rather than defend themselves with violence.

she later admitted she lied , those men never tried to hurt her .

Same

I feel the same way.

And you’re absolutely right….

bs ,same punishment as any man , she also lied that the men attack her

Everyone has their own reality.

Your way of thinking is not someone else’s, stop comparing your life to hers. Maybe her abuse was worse, you never know so shut up.

@@Silentraviolipolly well I never

None of the men she killed deserved it you gullible chump.

Lol🤗

I see what you're saying but I think they are saying that how this court case went was wrong. And that filthy girlfriend was involved and got a pass. I don't think they are defending her. Murder is horrific and I think it's beyond wrong. Zero excuse. However this woman really had one of the most brutal childhoods I ever heard of. That's what they are saying. Many many do alot worse and don't get killed. Look at those filthy Manson women.

The people that were picking her up that she killed weren’t high caliber people in the first place

I totally agree with you, The Law- murder is wrong and against the law, death penalty for you Offender- what unless you do it The Law- that's right double standard Offender- well once I am dead I no nothing, in jail for life I have to live with the torment of what I did and what others will do to me God - murder is wrong no matter who does it, any person with a heart and soul knows it is wrong

Be peaceful in order to be happy. case solved 😌
