      I was reading all of it and I’m like, yeah she totally developed a personality disorder because of her childhood. Then…

      At her sentencing, psychiatrists for the defense testified that Wuornos was mentally unstable and diagnosed her with borderline personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder.[1] Four days later, she was sentenced to death.

      :/ if it was able to be recognized earlier she could have gotten help. But that’s not how the system is designed. Or was designed.
