Oxygen Media Seeks The Truth In SNAPPED: NOTORIOUS – AILEEN WUORNOS Premiering 3/25  Image

America's first female serial killer, Aileen Wuornos, captivated the nation's attention when she was found guilty for brutally murdering six men, and confessing to a seventh between November 1989 to November 1990. In the two-hour "Snapped: Notorious - Aileen Wuornos,"premiering Sunday, March 25th at 6pm ET/PT, Oxygen Media takes a closer look at the turbulent trial that was the first of its kind. Was Aileen Wournos afforded a just trial, or did the media frenzy cause unfair bias among the jury? For a sneak peek, please visit here!

Aileen Wuornos was a self-professed "highway prostitute" who rose to infamy when she was arrested for the deaths of several men in central Florida. Aileen ultimately confessed to the killings as self-defense, but the jury unanimously convicted her on six counts of first degree murder and sentenced her to death. The special will uncover everything from the complexities of the case to the biased media reports. Through new interviews with those closest to Aileen and her trial, the special will delve deeper into two vastly different perspectives - was she the cold-blooded killer the country made her out to be? Or was she an abuse victim that was forced to protect herself?

"Snapped" is produced by Jupiter Entertainment with Stephen Land and Deborah Allen serving as executive producers. For more information, visitwww.oxygen.com and follow us on Twitter at www.twitter.com/OxygenPR.
