Have you ever heard about female serial killers? No? Well let me tell you
Aileen Wuornos
Born in 1956, Wuornos killed seven men in Florida between 1989 and 1990. She shot each of the seven at point-blank range, according to The New York Daily News. She was captured after a minor traffic accident in one of her victims’ cars. She told the police that she murdered the men in self-defense because they raped her while she worked as a prostitute. However, she was sentenced to death for six of the murders.
Judias Buenoano
Buenoano killed her husband James Goodyear, her son Michael Buenoano, her boyfriend Bobby Joe Morris, and potentially her boyfriend Gerald Dossett. She was also believed to have been involved in a 1974 murder in Alabama, and attempted to murder her fiancé John Gentry.
Buenoano was executed in 1971 for the murder of her husband. She was later linked to many of the other murders. She was the first woman to be executed in Florida since 1848 and was the third woman to be executed in the U.S. since the reinstatement of capital punishment in 1976.
Juana Barraza
Barraza was a Mexican professional wrestler. She was born in 1957 and was known as “The Old Lady Killer.” She murdered between 42 and 48 elderly woman and was later sentenced to 759 years in prison. She would beat or strangle her victims and steal their possessions. She was caught in 2006 and found guilty of 16 counts of murder and aggravated burglary in 2008
Jane Toppan
Toppan was a nurse who killed dozens of patients. She was nicknamed “Jolly Jane.” She confessed to 31 murders after her arrest in 1901. She would kill the victims with different combinations of medicine and chemicals and even climb into bed with them after administering the dose. She was found not guilty by reason of insanity and committed to the Taunton Insane Hospital for life.
Gesche Gottfried
Gottfried was a German serial killer who was the last person publicly executed in the city of Bremen. She killed 15 people using arsenic, probably between the years 1813 and 1827. She would mix the poison in with her victims’ food while caring for them as a nurse/ She killed her parents, her two husbands, her fiancé and her children.
Nannie Doss
Admitted to killing 11 people between 1920 and 1954. Among them were four of her five husbands, two children, her two sisters, her mother, a grandson and a mother-in-law. The truth about her spree finally emerged in October of 1954 after her fifth husband Samuel Doss died in a hospital in Oklahoma. An autopsy revealed an immense amount of arsenic in his system. Doss confessed to a long list of murders, but was only convicted of killing Samuel. Her sentence was life in prison.
Doss eventually died of leukemia in the Oklahoma State Penitentiary on June 2, 1965. Known under various names (Giggling Granny, Black Widow, and Lady Blue Beard), she was often referred to as the Lonely Hearts Killer because of her history with the lonely hearts column. During her childhood, Doss would read her mother's romance magazines as a hobby. Those magazines would become the medium through which she met most of her husbands—eventually becoming her victims.
