Aileen Carol Wuornos (born Aileen Carol Pittman February 29 1956 – October 9 2002 was an American Serial killer who killed seven men in Florida Natalie Merchant commented on this when asked why her song was run during the credits of the documentary "Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer". Aileen Life and Death of a Serial Killer is a feature-length Documentary film about Aileen Wuornos, made by Nick Broomfield as a follow-up

"When director Nick Broomfield sent a working edit of the film, I was so disturbed by the subject matter that I couldn't even watch it. Aileen Wuornos led a tortured, torturing life that is beyond my worst nightmares. It wasn't until I was told that Aileen spent many hours listening to my album 'Tigerlily' while on death row and requested 'Carnival' be played at her funeral that I gave permission for the use of the song. It's very odd to think of the places my music can go once it leaves my hands. If it gave her some solace, I have to be grateful. "
