EP180: The Little Old Lady Killer (La Mataviejitas)

Crimes and Consequences

Today's episode is about a female, Mexican serial killer. If that wasn't distinct enough, our killer was also a professional wrestler. Juana Barraza had a very sad and tough childhood and ended up growing up despising her mother. The fact that she hated her mom led her to hate all "elderly" women, enough so, that authorities believe she killed anywhere from 42-48 women. Despite those numbers, Juana was convicted of only 16 murders and was sentenced to 756 years in prison.
