Apprehension
July 4, 1990 - Aileen and Tyria were involved in an accident with Peter Siems" car and abandoned the car shortly after. Nearby witnesses gave police officers the names of the females in the car at the time of the accident and their description. Police later found items belonging to Peter in a nearby pawn shop after a media campaign went into effect to find them. The officers took the fingerprints found on the pawned items and from Peter"s car and matched them to fingerprints that were already in Florida precinct records. The fingerprints were a perfect match to Aileen Wuornos.
January 9, 1991 - Aileen was arrested at a biker bar, The Last Resort, in Volusia County on an outstanding warrant. Police officers found Tyria Moore in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the following day. Tyria agreed with the officers that she would get Aileen to confess if they give her immunity from prosecution. The officers took Tyria back to Florida and put her to stay in a motel under police surveillance. Tyria made numerous phone calls with the police there to Aileen, begging her to confess to the crimes so that her (Tyria"s) name can be cleared of all charges.
January 16, 1991 - Three days later, after speaking to Tyria, Aileen confessed to the m**ders and stated that the men had attempted to r**e her, and she acted in self-defense when she ki**ed them.
January 14, 1992 - Aileen was on trial for the m**der of Richard Mallory. Florida"s Williams Rule lets prosecutors use evidence from related crimes that she committed to showing a pattern of her m**ders and who she is.
January 27, 1992 - Aileen was found guilty of murdering Richard Mallory with the help of Tyria Moore"s testimony. The psychiatrists for her defense testified that Aileen was diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder, borderline personality disorder and was mentally unstable.
The defense attorney tried to provide evidence that Richard Mallory was a r**ist and had been tried for intent to commit r**e in Maryland. They also stated that he was incarcerated at a maximum-security correctional facility in Maryland that provided service to s**ual offenders. The correctional facility provided records showing Richard treated and observed from 1958 to 1962 for criminal charges of assault and attempted r*pe. The records also showed that Richard received a total of eight years of treatment from the correctional facility. The judge did not allow the defense to submit any evidence in court regarding Richard, and everything said about Richard was dismissed.
January 31, 1992 - The court sentenced Aileen Wuornos to the d3@th sentence.
March 31, 1992 - Aileen said that she wanted to "get right with God" and pleaded guilty to the m**ders of Dick Humphreys, Troy Burress, and David Spears. She stated, "I wanted to confess to you that Richard Mallory did violently r**e me as I"ve told you, but these others did not. They only began to start too."
May 15, 1992 - Aileen was given three more d3@th sentences after her trial on March 31, 1992.
June 1992 - Aileen received her fifth d3@th sentence after pleading guilty to murdering Charles Carskaddon in November 1992.
February 1993 - Aileen is sentenced to d3@th again after pleading guilty to murdering Walter Jeno Antonio.
Aileen received six d3@th sentences because she was not charged for the disappearance/murder of Peter Siems. After all, his body was never found. Aileen could not keep all of her stories straight about the m**ders, and therefore her stories were inconsistent. She first said that all of her victims died because of self-defense when they r**ed her (separate m**ders) during her prostitution days. During an interview one day with Nick Broomfield, Aileen thought the cameras were off and told him that she ki**ed her victims because of self-defense and that she did not want to be on d3@th row any longer. She was then currently on d3@th for ten years and gave up to the point where she wanted to be dead.
