Sow

If the real story is anything like the movie, that sow Tyria(Selby) should had been put in prison as well. Always whining to Aileen about her needing to be taken care of and wondering how Aileen was going to support her. A few times, it seems she did not support Aileen's desire to not want to hook anymore. She encouraged it and helped egg on the killing. WTF. In my opinion the sow was just as responsible for the murders. Just because she didn't pull the trigger doesn't make her/it innocent.
Not saying Aileen didn't deserve her punishment, but it seems that gross slob Tyria should be in prison. If she would have turned her in right away, other men would not have been killed. I think she knew full well she killed more than one man. The families should have sued her civilly. Would they get anything? No, but it would be looming over her head forever. I seen her profile on FB and she is just going about life like she had no part at all in the murders.

Tyria movie version comes off as less sympathetic in certain moments. Her circumstances are pretty bad.She is caught between a homophobic prejudice Christians parents and a dysfunctional steeet woman who actually accepts her. She clearly had issues because of it.

Tyria Real life ver sold the rights to her love story with Alieen. Seems more like an opportunist.

Why must you compare lovely piggies to the brat?

I agree. She was unlikable, but I wonder if those scenes were true to life because I know they said in documentaries I've seen that Tyra worked as a motel housekeeper, but they also said they lived mostly off of Aileen's earnings as a prostitute so that scene could have actually happened.

She is now married to some woman. Life goes on I guess, but I would be curious who would marry her and not think she may have been somehow involved with the killings.

Film isn't meant to portray reality. It's meant to portray perceptions of reality. Whatever they may be. One ore more...This film touches on many.

I believe "sow" is a good adjective here. She was a piece of shit.

If she participated in the murders in any way, she deserved to get exterminated too, just like Aileen.
