Episode 7: Lizzie Borden. The Lizzie Borden Murder Tip Line
Manage episode 286536081 series 2887359
The Borden murders are one of the most famous unsolved murders in America, over 100 years later. Today, Jen and Kristin head to the Lizzie Borden house, which, if you haven’t heard much of the case itself, you’re definitely aware of the DOPE nursery rhyme the case inspired:
Lizzie Borden took an axe
And gave her mother forty whacks.
When she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one.
Andrew Borden now is dead,
Lizzie hit him on the head.
Up in heaven he will sing,
On the gallows she will swing.
We take a dive into the Borden fam dynamic and the events leading up to the murders of Lizzie’s father and stepmother, Andrew and Abby Borden.
We touch on how the cops really f*cked up the investigation, Lizzie’s arrest and trial, and how she spent the rest of her life. We discuss the numerous theories around the murders and around Lizzie herself. And, of course, our personal theories on whodunnit. And, did you know, this case involves a DEATHBED CONFESSION?
We also talk about staying at the Lizzie Borden house and Jen’s AWESOME experiences there! HINT: It was GHOSTS.
