On August 4, 1893, someone killed Andrew and Abby Borden with a hatchet in their Fall River, Massachusetts home. The only suspect was their daughter, Lizzie. What followed was the most sensational murder trial of the 19th century, a case built on circumstantial evidence, conflicting testimony, and a defendant who never took the stand. The jury deliberated for ninety minutes. Built from trial transcripts, witness testimony, and historical court records.
