Lizzie Borden Case

The Lizzie Borden murders have always been the mystery of whether Lizzie murdered her family. I personally do believe she murdered her parents, as unfortunate as that is. On August 11th, 1992, 32-year-old Lizzie Borden was arrested for the murder of her father, Andrew, and her stepmother, Abby. Abby was the first to be murdered, and she was reported to have 19 blows to the head from a hatchet. Shortly afterwards, before 11:15 a.m., her father had also been murdered. After her trial in 1993, Lizzie Borden was supposedly wrongly acquitted of the murder charges.

Between 9-10 a.m., Abby had gone up the stairs to the second floor to continue cleaning, but when Lizzie entered the dining room to quickly visit her father, she tells him Abby left after she had received a message. The lack of certain information creates the suspicious circumstances that make up the story today. Lizzie had been reported to have stopped calling her stepmother ‘mother,’ pointing out a possible crack in their relationship. When Abby had gone to the doctors claiming she had been poisoned, it was reported that Lizzie had attempted and failed to buy poison from Eli B. Lizzie had a very clear underlying hatred for Abby, and resentment for her father.
