The Killers: Aileen Wuornos

Murderers committed: At least 6

Suspected of at least seven murders, sentenced to die in four of the six cases she confessed to police, Wuornos still maintains that some or all of her killings were performed in self-defense.

Many of the victims were found naked, robbed and shot multiple times. One of her suspected victims was a missionary.

Ironically, information uncovered by investigative journalists in November 1992 suggests that in one case, at least, her story may well be true. Her first victim, Mallory, had served 10 years for a previous rape conviction.

Within two weeks of her arrest, Aileen and her attorney had sold the movie rights to her story.

The documentary: "Aileen Wuornos: The Selling Of A Serial Killer," by Nick Broomfield examines the various people who have attempted to profit off Wuornos' story.
