On August 4, 1892, the murders of wealthy and prominent Andrew and Abby Borden rocked the small town of Fall River, Massachusetts. The accused? Mild-mannered and highly respected Lizzie Borden, daughter of Andrew and stepdaughter of Abby. But did she actually do it? And if she did, why?

And her actions in the days before the murdertrying to buy a type of strong poisonas well as those after the murderburning a dress she claimed was staineddidn't help. On August 11, Lizzie was arrested. But after a sensational trial, she was found not guilty.
Rumors lingered. Stories persisted. And Lizzie continues to fascinate even today.
