Lizzie Borden

"Lizzie Borden took an ax / And gave her mother forty whacks / When she saw what she had done / She gave her father forty-one." It's a popular children's rhyme, but it also tells the story of Lizzie Borden, 32, who was accused of murdering her parents with an ax in 1892. Lizzie was acquitted, but the town turned against her, believing her to be the killer. Did Lizzie get away with murder? We may never know.
