Scarred for Life: the Aileen Wournos Story

By Brian Lee Tucker

To characterize Aileen Wuornos' start in life as a poor beginning is truly an understatement. It was an awful beginning from the time she was born February 29, 1956 as Aileen Carol Pittman. One of the few good things in her young life, ironically, was that her biological father, Leo Dale Pittman, never got to know her. Pittman was a psychopathic child molester who hanged himself in prison in 1969. Born into a crazy, chaotic life that only got worse with time, Aileen, convinced that she'd been dealt a raw deal by fate and would never find true love, took to the streets to survive, eventually becoming a prostitute to pay her bills. Then, right out of the blue, she met Tyria Moore, a lesbian who, in search of true love as well, fell in love with Aileen and would unwittingly become a pawn in a string of murders that would later earn Aileen the monicker, "the damsel of death." At times hard to take, unflinching in it's portrayal of a woman scorned by society itself, SCARRED FOR LIFE provides a terrifying insight into the mind of the first true female American serial killer - and will leave a mark on whoever is brave enough to read it.
