Remember the bridge section: "A 10-year-old girl and her brother stole the forbidden fruit and were sexually assaulted by their grandfather later"? This section comes from the film "The Witch Head" directed by Patty Jenkins, aka: "Beautiful Female Wolf".
Based on a true story, the film tells the story of a girl with a bad background who becomes a serial killer who kills people without blinking in pursuit of love.
Movie "Female Demon Head"
Between 1989 and 1990, seven men were killed on highways in Florida, USA. Florida's highways are known locally as "Deadly Highways," and the killers are known as "poisonous spiders" and "female devils."
She was Irene Warrens, a girl who often hitchhiked on the side of the highway, chatted with the driver in the car, and finally traded sex in exchange for money.
Erin
Irene Warrens was born in 1953 into a broken family. His mother, Diana, 14 and Leo, 16, eloped and gave birth to Irene's older brother, Keith.
The following year, Diane became pregnant again, but Leo abandoned Diana. Diana had no choice but to go home because she was a minor, and Diana ran away from home after giving birth to Irene. Irene's father, Leo, was arrested by the police for child molestation and eventually committed suicide in prison.
Erin as a child
Irene was raised by her grandparents after birth. However, Irene had an unhappy childhood, and her grandfather had a bad temper, especially after drinking, he often scolded her and beat her.
Irene's temper became grumpy in such an environment. Aside from her brother, people around her were reluctant to play with her and dropped out of school at the age of 8. Once her grandfather was drunk, Irene was sexually assaulted by her grandfather.
Brother Keith
Although Irene grew up in such an environment, Irene is very beautiful and steals the forbidden fruit with her brother Keith when she is 10 years old.
Hatefully, Keith told his friends about it. Everyone around her looked at Irene with strange eyes, pointed at Irene, and didn't want to play with Irene, and in order to play with them, Irene began to have sex with the boys, wanting them to play with her.
Once, when Irene went to her grandfather's friend's house and didn't expect her grandfather's friend to sexually assault her, Irene told her grandfather about it, and his grandfather not only did not believe her, but also scolded her for wronging her friend.
Irene conceived a child because of sexual assault and gave birth a few months later, because it was a minor who could not raise the child, and the child was sent to a welfare home.
Grandfather felt humiliated and threw Irene out of the house. Keith also stopped caring about her, and those around her thought Irene was an ominous person.
Unwilling to take her in, Irene had nowhere to go but to wander outside. Irene couldn't find a job because she was an underage, and had to sell her body in order to survive.
In 1976, Irene, 23, married LouisE Vere, 70. Louis is a stock player, is rich, and likes Irene and is willing to give money to Irene to spend. However, Irene has a bad temper and often scolds Louis.
Erin and Louise
Once Louis was beaten into the hospital. Louis couldn't bear to sue for divorce in court. Because Erin was at fault, the divorce did not receive any property, but the kind Louis gave him a sum of money. But it didn't take long for her to squander the money. He also received news that his brother had died of cancer.
Irene is sad and feels that there is no place in the world to linger, she bought a gun and prepared to commit suicide, but she can't do anything to herself. She began to rob in order to survive, and it was not long before she was arrested and imprisoned.
Irene was released from prison a few years later. Erin started hanging out in a bar, and it wasn't long before she met her gay girlfriend, Hilby Wall, at the bar. However, the two sides did not have a stable job and lived a very difficult life, so Irene returned to her old business.
Erin meets her girlfriend Hilby
Start robbing and selling your body to earn money to support yourself and your girlfriend. Beginning in 1989, Irene was no longer satisfied with money after the relationship, but also wanted each other's lives.
On November 30, 1989, Irene pretended to be injured and hitched a ride on the highway with Dick Humphrey. Dick Humphrey, 51, is the owner of a company. During the transaction, Dick is perverted, not only sexually assaulting Irene but also verbally abusing and beating her.
In a fit of rage, Erin shot Dick to death. When the police found Dick's body, it had begun to decompose, and only a few shots were found on the body. Unfortunately, no other valuable clues were found around.
On June 1, 1990, Florida police received another report, and the police rushed to the scene to find that the victim had been shot six times. The victim under investigation was David Spears.
The police examined the surveillance at the time and found that David Spears had driven a car with a woman in the middle of the car, and now that the car was missing, the police suspected that the murderer was the woman who got in the car halfway through.
Erin hitched a ride on Charles
On September 10, 1990, 56-year-old Charles Cascoton disappeared, and after his wife called the police, the police found Charles in the grove next to the highway, but unfortunately he was dead and his money had been robbed.
Police locked in two suspects during the investigation, namely Mohr and Shelby Wall. They are a gay couple. Police extracted their fingerprints for comparison and found that Mohr's fingerprints were the same as those of a homicide on the highway. And Mohr is Irene, and the police have made an arrest warrant for Irene.
In January 1991, Irene was drinking at a bar when she was about to go out on the phone when she was arrested by two plainclothes police officers. When questioned by the police, Irene refused to plead guilty.
For stronger evidence, the police contacted Irene's girlfriend, Hilby Wall, but said she had broken up with Irene and was now back with her parents.
During police questioning, Hilby Wall eventually admitted that she knew about Irene's murder, but denied her involvement.
Shelby
Following the instructions of the police, Shelby Wall contacted Irene by phone and cried to her that she had been considered a suspect by the police, and Irene said to Shelby Wall, "You are innocent, I will not let you go to jail." I will confess my sins."
In 1992, the prosecution indicted Irene for murder. During the trial, Shelby Wall appeared in court to testify that Erin was the road murderer. Irene argues that each victim tried to sexually assault her and that she was acting in self-defense.
Shelby testified
In Erin's view, after the deal, the boys gave her compensation, which she deserved.
Maybe later she thought that if she wanted to trade, she could only exchange money and life for it, which was equal. So at the end of the trial, the judge asked her if she had any regrets and whether she felt guilty about the victims' families.
Trial judge
She rightly told the judge that she had never regretted it or felt guilty. Eventually she was sentenced to death. Although Irene was the murderer and she broke the law, she was also a victim, and Irene's birth, for her biological parents, was not expected, from birth to death, never enjoyed the love of her parents.
The father leaves before birth and the mother leaves after birth. Growing up, people around her were reluctant to play with her, except that her brother cared a little for her. However, he was sexually assaulted by his grandfather and his grandfather's friends, and was finally kicked out of the house by his grandfather.
Erin was sent to prison
Some people may think that Irene's life is caused by her own delicious and lazy work, in fact, I really don't blame her, because everyone's childhood has a great impact on the second half of her life, and Irene has been sexually assaulted and scolded since she was a child.
This should be a disaster for a child who barely feels the warmth of her loved ones.
Everything that happened in her childhood made her understand that the way to get along with the outside world was to exchange herself. In fact, they all blamed no one for giving her love when she was a child.
During her sentence, her girlfriend, Hilby Wall, had not come to see her, and she did not expect Shelby Wall to be so desperate.
Feeling desperate in prison, Erin finally applied to the court for execution, which finally granted her request and was shot to death by Irene in 2002. Erin ended her life.
