ESSAY ON: The Lizzie Borden Case: Evidence and Arguments for Motive and Guilt

Number of Pages 4

This research paper: This is a 4 page paper discussing the guilt and motives of Lizzie Borden. One of the unsolved murder cases within the United States for over one hundred years is the “Lizzie Borden” case. While Lizzie was acquitted of murdering her father and stepmother on August 4, 1892 in Fall River, Massachusetts, there was still a lot of speculation that she in fact was guilty and the motives for the murders were sexual abuse from her father and jealousy of her stepmother. Inconsistencies in her testimony and recent investigative evidence seems to indicate that Lizzie and her sister Emma had endured years of sexual abuse which led them to distant other men while at the same time they did not like their new stepmother and the privileges and stock their father allotted to her which the sisters believed were rightfully theirs. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
