Now I have all kinds of questions. How does this person stand with her since she was executed in 2002? Does this person advocate killing and robbing johns? I know she said that all seven men she killed were killed in self-defense after they raped her or attempted to rape her, but the six bodies that were found had been shot multiple times.

One of the men was a Christian outreach guy with NO history of picking up prostitutes who picked up both Wuornos and her GF. They never even found his body to see how they killed him.

One of the men was a Christian outreach guy... 'Cause Christians never rape?

I mean, You know me, I'm not trying to virtue signal here, I'm not exactly on the feminist rhetoric bandwagon in any regard, particularly in the topic of rape... but this does not speak to her guilt. Christians do wonky shit all the time, and not being caught in the past is no indication that he was innocent. We also shouldn't presume his guilt either, of course, just pointing it out.

Generally men with no history of rape, but with a history of trying to help disadvantaged people don't pick up TWO hitch hikers at once if they are in the mood to rape. On account of it being two against one. And Wuornos wasn't a tiny woman.

And considering she shot several of the men in the back, it doesn't seem like she was fighting off an attacker.

In the back is a telling fact, certainly disproves any self defence claim, but doesn't rule out the motive being "You just raped me, now you'r walking away and I have a gun."

And let's be honest: "Never being a caught or accused of rape before this time" is not the same as "no history of rape".

I'm not saying its true, just that you cant rule it out.

She also refused to appeal her death sentence because she wanted to die, because she was too angry to function and if she ever got out, she'd just go back to killing people.

I dunno bruv, If I had a gun and someone raped me, I'd probably put a few more bullets in them than is necessary. I mean, shooting a person multiple times speaks to hate, panic, or an unbalanced mind. All things she could have had naturally, but also all things that would come from being raped, so I don't think the means of death speaks to her claim being true or false.

Six (or seven) times? Every time? She shot one guy nine times. And the didn't all rape her, by her own words - on March 31, 1992, Wuornos pleaded no contest to the murders of Humphreys, Burress, and Spears, saying she wanted to "get right with God". In her statement to the court, she said, in part: "I wanted to confess to you that Richard Mallory did violently rape me as I've told you; but these others did not. [They] only began to start to."

I know sex work is no picnic and there is a lot of sexual assault and I do believe that probably the first one did rape her, but I think she got a taste for killing after that. All of the killings happened in the span of a year. Is it possible that, with her mental issues, which she did have, that she believed that she was in danger every single time? I suppose. I think it's more likely that with her predisposition for violence, her borderline personality disorder, and the rape and initial killing, she did it because she wanted to, because it gave her control. Maybe she felt justified.

I dunno, your hypothesis is possible, I just wasn't seeing anything that disproves her claim. At least untill the "They didn't rape me, but they started to"... I mean, then how did they get shot in the back? Like that point doesn't fit. Unless someone else shot them, which is pure unfounded hypothesis*, there does seem to be a gap there. I like to imagine I'm pretty imaginitiave, but I don't know how I would rape somone while facing away from them.

*On the subject of pure hypothesis, that would also cover your paragraph "I do believe that probably the first one did rape her, but I think she got a taste for killing after that. All of the killings happened in the span of a year. Is it possible that, with her mental issues, which she did have, that she believed that she was in danger every single time? I suppose. I think it's more likely that with her predisposition for violence, her borderline personality disorder, and the rape and initial killing, she did it because she wanted to, because it gave her control. Maybe she felt justified." Possible, but there is a lot of supposition in that.
