His crimes became widely known due to his ability to use charm and deception to gain victims’ trust. Bundy evaded capture for years, escaped custody twice, and carried out further killings before his final arrest. He was later convicted and sentenced to death, becoming one of the most infamous serial killers in modern criminal history.

Aileen Wuornos was an American serial killer who murdered multiple men in Florida between 1989 and 1990. Operating primarily along highways, she targeted men she encountered while working as a sex worker.

Wuornos was convicted of multiple murders and executed in 2002.
