Aileen Wournos Interview - Background SSAsS interviewed Aileen Wournos on Death Row in Florida in March of 2001, as part of the NCAVC's research project involving interviews of serial killers. Wournos agreed to be videotaped during the interview, which lasted nearly 40 hours over the course of four days. Around the time of the interview, a group of Florida attorneys, in a bold effort to suspend executions, filed a motion to declare all Death Row inmates incompetent. Wournos, who had been on Death Row since May of 1992, had come to terms with her sentence and, in her own mind, felt that she was "right with God." In an effort to demonstrate her competency, she was willing and ready to speak with anyone who had an interest in her crimes. She had granted interviews with police, reporters, and other non-law enforcement. personnel during her ten-year incarceration. ssa[_——] reviewed reports of Wournos' January 16, 1991, interview with Se ee SE Mot the Marion County 8.D. andl of the Volusia County P.D., which occurred days after jer arrest. The information concerning her homicides was elementally the same in the 1991 and 2001 interviews. Crime Analysis - Comparison of Chambers Homicide and Wournos Murders Date, Time & Lo of Chambers Murde: uw UNSUB(S); JAMES WESTON CHAMBERS - VICTIM LEE COUNTY FLORIDA Modus Operandi Modus Operandi (M.0.) is described by the NCAVC as the actions that an offender takes to commit a crime, escape, and/or prevent capture. M.O. is dynamic and may change over the course of a criminal career as an offender learns from his/her success, failures, or criminal experiences of others. The following section describes various aspects of M.O. in the Chambers homicide and compares it to Wournos' M.0 demonstrated in her seven known murders. lodus Operandi (M.0 Offender/Victim Approach The NCAVC defines "Approach" as the method of accessing and/or acquiring victims. The approach can take the form of a blitz, a con/ruse, or a surprise. 12 UNSUB(S); JAMES WESTON CHAMBERS - VICTIM LEE COUNTY FLORIDA *Ritual and Signature Aspects of Wournos' Murders The NCAVC defines "Ritual" as psychologically motivated behavior that typically satisfies the needs or desires of an offender during the commission of the crime, which is not necessary for the successful completion of the crime and is fairly consistent over the course of the offender's career. The NCAVC defines "Signature" as the extremely rare combination of M.O. and Ritual that allows one case to be linked to others as having been committed by a common. offender (s) . Conclusion 19 UNSUB(S); JAMES WESTON CHAMBERS - VICTIM LEE COUNTY FLORIDA Potentially Related Case Recommendations Due to advances in forensic science over the last years, it may be prudent to resubmit items examined in 1984 for latent value and/or to submit evidentiary items not previously tested for DNA (e.g. smudges on driver's side 20 23 UNSUB(S); JAMES WESTON CHAMBERS - VICTIM LEE COUNTY FLORIDA window, left rear pants pocket area, and hair found in window track) .
