On This Day in Criminal History

On this day in 1892, Andrew and Abby Borden were axed to death in their home in Fall River, MA. Lizzie Borden, Andrew Borden's daughter from a previous marriage, was accused of the killings, though she was later acquitted.


Lizzie Borden took an axe
And gave her mother forty whacks.
When she saw what she had done
She gave her father forty-one.


Happy Lizzie Borden Day!
