Answer 1

>do u think she killed her parents
yes

>if yes why
She was mentally imbalanced, and feared her stepmother would take her and her sister’s inheritance.

>acquited from crime
>why do u think
Without direct evidence, no jury of that time would condemn a spinster Sunday School teacher to hang.

>have you ever visited lizzie borden house
at fall river,ma
Long before it was opened as a bed-and-breakfast I saw and photographed the house, and visited the Fall River Historical Society where there is an exhibit on the crime, including a blood-stained bedspread.

Answer 2

The jury found her not guilty. They might have been mistaken, but I wouldn't be too quick to to second-guess them all these years later.

As for that famous "Lizzie Borden took an ax" rhyme, it gets the most basic facts wrong. Andrew Borden, Lizzie's father, died from 11 hatchet blows, not 40. Andrew's wife, Abby (who was Lizzie's stepmother, not her mother) died from 19 blows, not 41.

Answer 3

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

Answer 4

Evidence procedures were primitive back then. Lizzie's father had cut her off financially. She was use to living the "Good Life" so she killed her parents to inherit her father's fortune.

Answer 5

never visited the house. watched something on the history channel & i think she was acquited for lack of evidence. It was blamed on a random break in.
