It’s not every day that you get to perform in a touring production of a Broadway musical in your hometown, and on the same stage that you used to see touring Broadway shows at. But for Metro Detroiter Maya Petropoulos, she’s living that dream right now.

2002: Serial killer Aileen Wuornos, who killed seven men in Florida in 1989 and 1990, is executed via lethal injection at the Florida State Prison in Bradford County, Florida. She was the 10th woman in the United States to be executed since the Supreme Court lifted the ban on capital punishment in 1976, and the second woman ever executed in Florida. Wuornos had claimed that all the killings were committed in self defense, saying that her victims had either raped or attempted to rape her while she was working as a prostitute. Her life got more attention a year after her execution with the release of the movie "Monster," with Charlize Theron winning an Academy Award for Best Actress for portraying Wuornos. Hide Caption
