Serial killer Aileen Wuornos proudly admitted to killing seven men and gave a chilling explanation for her actions in a resurfaced interview.<\/p>\n
Aileen Wuornos was a sex worker who shot and killed seven men between 1989 and 1990, before being arrested in early 1991.<\/p>\n
During her trial, she claimed her actions were done in self-defence as she said that the men she killed had raped her or attempted to rape her.<\/p>\n

But the court determined that she was guilty of six first-degree murders and she spent 12 years on Florida's death row before being executed by lethal injection in 2002.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She was never charged with the death of Peter Abraham Siems, whose body was never found.<\/p>\n
But shortly before her death in 2002, Wuornos took part in two Nick Broomfield documentaries; Aileen Wuornos: The Selling of a Serial Killer and Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer where she told all about her crimes and admitted to killing all seven men.<\/p>\n
In the resurfaced interview, Broomfield says: "You killed seven men."<\/p>\n
To which Wuornos smiles, nods and replied: "Sure did."<\/p>\n
Broomfield went on to ask what got her to kill and she blamed the police for "letting her kill them"<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She said: "I'm telling you, [it was] because the cops let me keep killing them, Nick. Don't you get it?"<\/p>\n
Broomfield then pointed out that not everyone is a serial killer so he insisted that there must be 'something inside her' that pushed her to kill.<\/p>\n
This response seemed to anger her as she said: "Oh, you are lost, Nick."<\/p>\n
The filmmaker has since said he does not believe Wuornos was of sound mind when she was put to death and branded her execution "tragic" and "inhumane."<\/p>\n

Speaking to The Independent last year, Broomfield said: "We became oddly close. Her end was so tragic. She thought her mind was being controlled by some kind of communication device within the prison. <\/p>\n
"She was just totally paranoid and hearing voices and was scheduled for execution. It seemed to me, on that level alone, completely inhumane."<\/p>\n
In his second documentary, he spoke to Aileen the day before her execution and she told him that her death would be "like Star Trek<\/i> beaming me up into a space vehicle." <\/p>\n
