Overview
- Netflix released the documentary on Oct. 30, featuring previously unseen 1997 death-row interviews alongside new reporting and archival materials.
- The film details how police directed Tyria Moore to make recorded calls that prompted Aileen Wuornos to confess; Moore received immunity, testified at trial, and is reported to live a private life in Pennsylvania.
- A man interviewed in the documentary says Wuornos could have robbed and killed him but did not, while Judge Gayle Graziano notes Wuornos claimed to have seen about 400 clients during the same period seven men were killed.
- Prosecutor John Tanner characterizes the killings as acts of control and domination, contrasting with Wuornos’ self-defense claims; records about victim Richard Mallory’s past sexual-violence conviction were not presented at her trial.
- Investigators linked Wuornos to the murders through witness sightings and fingerprint evidence before arresting her on Jan. 9, 1991; she was later convicted of six murders and executed in 2002, with no new legal actions reported.
