My Take
I'll be honest, this is one entry where my usual chatty fan voice just doesn't fit. Aileen Wuornos wasn't a star, she was a woman whose name we know because of seven killings in Florida around 1989 and 1990, and because she was executed in 2002. I won't pretend to admire her, but I also can't read her story without flinching. Born in Michigan, leap-year baby, dealt one of the bleakest hands imaginable from the start, she fell through every crack a person can fall through long before the crimes. I don't excuse any of it, the victims matter most. Still, I sit with the uneasy thought that somewhere, much earlier, a different turn might have spared a lot of people. A hard, sad chapter I'd rather understand than gawk at.
