Trials of the Century: The Trial of Lizzie Borden

2 years ago
154

The axe murders that shook Fall River, Massachusetts in the summer of 1892, the trial in the New Bedford Courthouse in 1893, and the infamous children's rhyme that stemmed therefrom:

"Lizzie Borden took an ax
And gave her mother forty whacks,
And when she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one."

Welcome to Episode 2 of this Trials of the Century series where I'm again joined by @Scott Cardinal - Investigative Historian
to discuss the Falls River murders and Lizzie Borden's acquittal at trial! We might even have another special guest to join in the discussion...oh, and perhaps also a demonstration to please the viewing audience!

Special guest appearance by @Runkle Of The Bailey!
