Episode Five of The Lizzie Borden Podcast continues A Lizzie Borden Primer, a three-part series that will present the life and times of Lizzie Borden. This episode is an exceptionally good starting part for anyone who has no more knowledge of Lizzie Borden and the Borden Murders than what they have heard in the notorious jump rope jingle. This episode covers the day of the Borden murders on August 4, 1892, the police investigation, and the arrest of Lizzie Borden.

The very fact that Lizzy assumed that the maid was still alive, seems like an incriminating item of interest. The Smithsonian did an investigation on this case, and mentioned that lizzys father can be seen on the sofa with his favorite coat crumpled behind his head, a coat he would not have bunched up to sleep on, and that the coat itself might have been worn by the killer to avoid blood stains on their clothes and afterwards stuffed under the old man's head

@beverlyblakemore7693 3 года назад

Regarding the note that Abby was meant to have received: if you look at Addy Churchill's testimony, you see something striking. Bridget tells her independently of Lizzie that Abby had told her that she received a note and she was going to go out to visit someone. Bridget said it was unusual for Abby not to tell her where she was going.

Lizzie did the murder no one else had a motive and was able to murder both and no one had the time to do it except for Lizzie.

@massonman9099 5 лет назад

you honestly think Lizzie was innocent? So who was it? How did he hide for the hours between the murders, then escape, covered in blood? Rhubarb! It was Lizzie.

@jaymesguy239 5 лет назад

Of course she did it, the actual circumstantial evidence alone condemns her in reality, if not in law. No other solution makes any real sense. She was lucky, ultimately. Half of the town (and area) wanted her acquitted because they thought she was innocent, and the other half wanted her acquitted in spite of believing she was guilty. And the judge influenced the court and the jury in her favor.

Cara Robertson’s book is really good and gives a view on the inquest testimony; the dude was trying to trip her up and catch her in a lie. Yes, it’s weird and damaging but she was (at least in her way) trying to buffet the attack.

@randygandhi 5 лет назад

If the bedroom door was wide open when Lizzie called Bridget informing her that her father had been killed and was still wide open when Mrs Churchill went up the stairs ,then it must have been in the same position when Lizzie stood on the stairs & laughed as Bridget struggled with the bolts on the front door.

@daddydavey9067 3 года назад

Lizzie Called up to Bridget at the rear steps. Bridget couldn't access her room any other way. She wouldn't see the open guestroom door until they looked for Mrs. Borden later, from the front steps... Just sayin'. 🤓

@SuperStrik9 6 лет назад

I think Lizzie was guilty of both murders. That's just my opinion though.

@hollykostera7826 2 года назад

She did it and if it were tried today, it would be a clear and cut case. I have sooo many isssues with this case. #1: Getting rid of the dress. #2: Telling a neighbor the night before the murders that she's afraid someone might try to kill her father. #3: Remaining in the house after finding her father, while she sends others for help. #4: She repeatedly tells people to go find Abby, hmmm. #5: There is no way that someone entered that house for that short amount of time just to hack 2 people to death for no reason at all and then miraculously disappear. #6: Lizzy had AMPLE motive. I could go on and on and on.

the made up note, and if she were in the barn staring out the window, how the hell did someone get in or out without her seeing them

@TheOriginalSubstance Год назад

Not the case, actually. EVERYONE that knows the case well has sooo many issues with the case. Its fraught with inconsistencies and things you can call " all out bullsh**" But going by evidence allowed, It has been retried by modern day court, and again, the conclusion has been that enough reasonable doubt existed. They didn't have to prove "how it was done" only that beyond a reasonable doubt that she did it. She sure had motive, means and opportunity. But there was no weapon tying her to it. No hard physical evidence, tying physically to her and enough doubt and question with the fact that a stranger Could have entered the residence. Unfortunately it would NOT be a "clear and cut case"

@kevinbowen6182 2 года назад

People always look for financial motives. But I think the pigeon slaying might have played a bigger role, for an animal lover like Lizzie. And eating spoiled mutton meat for a week, assuming it wasn't poisoned, might have been the last straw.

A contemporary news report said Andrew Borden's slippers were put back on his feet before the photograph. This was considered more dignified.

@daddydavey9067 3 года назад

But I've always wondered.. isn't it somewhat undignified to leave ones brains splattered to the winds in a proper photograph? "Mr. Borden.. might you please scoop yourself together? This is for posterity. "🤓

@annalisette5897 3 года назад

@@daddydavey9067 It's available. Probably easy by Googling 'Andrew Borden, images'. There are several extremely graphic pictures. The famous one on the couch, I guess, was the one fit to be printed in a regular newspaper of the day. At least neighbors put his shoes back on, according to one contemporary report. (Interestingly, much is made of the fact that his coat was bunched up under his head. Some theorize that Lizzie wore the coat to cover her dress then jammed it under cushions at the arm of the sofa. I wonder if photographers used it to get a better angle for their cameras which in those days could not be pointed downward?)

@alexwallace6120 5 лет назад

I feel that Lizzie did murder her father and step mother.The question I have is whether Bridget knew or helped.Also ws the siste Emma involved? or knew either before or after.Going to the basement for the 2nd time the night of the murders is suspicious! What was in that pail/bucket? Was that dress she burned really covered in paint? Or blood?This was an interesting and ,etertaining podcast.

@karllieck9064 6 лет назад

I still think Lizzie murdered one or both of the victims. Since the time of the murders could not be pinpointed, Lizzie had the time and opportunity to do the deed. And yes, she could have been naked when she did the murders. She certainly had numerous motives to kill her father and stepmother. The two speakers on this podcast already have their minds made up that Lizzie didn't do the murders.

@jaymesguy239 6 лет назад

Come on, she killed BOTH! Otherwise, it doesn't make any sense. ;)

@msvick66 7 лет назад

I've always found the story related by the nurse who said that Lizzie told her that a boyfriend of hers had done the crime quite interesting. I've yet to read anything about her ever having a boyfriend or lover, but I still think it's plausible. Seems like a simple explanation that could have happened. Maybe she had a secret love. Or maybe she seduced someone and persuaded him to do it for her. Wouldn't be the first time women have used their, shall we say, charms to elicit something they want from a man. Maybe she met someone on that cruise and maintained a correspondence with him. Then there was church--perhaps he could have been married so no one knew. Wish there more detail to the woman's story. Seems like an odd thing for Lizzie to lie about to the lady. Why bother when she could have just said she had nothing to do with it and doesn't know who did it? Or is the woman making it up? That's possible too, but she was convincing if she was.

@daddydavey9067 3 года назад

If I had been Lizzie I would have grabbed a spare bedsheet to wrap myself in before killing anyone with a hatchet. I can't imagine the reasoning in wearing my everyday clothing for such an event. Quick on, quick off. Not much cleanup after. Just hide one sheet. That's what I would have thought of beforehand. 🤔

@sarahholland2600 3 года назад

She wore the bloodsoaked folded up coat pictured under Andrews head in crime scene photo . It was described as a very hot day, so he wouldn't have been wearing it & a famously frugal man wouldn't use an expensive item like a coat as a cushion.

@jaymesguy239 6 лет назад

THAT'S considered a 'children's book'? What's next, "Are you there God? It's me, the Black Dahlia"? Just kidding. Fun read, but yeah, a pretty gory, dark tale. Can't say I'm a big fan of the male host, he's kind of a dumbass, but the female author is more listenable. But I stll think Lizzie did it; no other theory really makes sense, nor does her defense.
