The Lizzie Borden murders occurred on August 4, 1892, in Fall River, Massachusetts, when Andrew and Abby Borden were brutally killed with a hatchet in their home. Lizzie Borden, Andrew's daughter, became the primary suspect. The case gained notoriety due to its gruesome nature and Lizzie's acquittal during a highly publicized trial. The prosecution argued that Lizzie had a motive, as she stood to inherit her father's wealth, while the defense highlighted lack of direct evidence and questionable police procedures. The famous rhyme "Lizzie Borden took an axe, And gave her mother forty whacks; When she saw what she had done, She gave her father forty-one" reflects the enduring public fascination with the case. The murders remain unsolved, and speculation about Lizzie's guilt or innocence continues to captivate true crime enthusiasts.
