MentalFloss: Everyone knows that Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother 40 whacks—and when she saw what she had done, she gave her father 41.
That old jump rope rhyme has a few factual errors, actually: Abby Borden was Lizzie’s stepmother, not her mother, and she was on the receiving end of 18 or 19 blows, while her father received about 11. And, not least of all, Lizzie was acquitted of the horrific murders in Fall River, Massachusetts.
After winning the trial of the century, in which a jury of 12 heavily mustachioed men deliberated for 90 minutes, Borden chose to stay in Fall River. She quickly learned that though she had been acquitted in a court of law, not everyone was willing to let her off the hook. MORE
Hmmmmm… Methinks Lizzie transformed to “Lizbeth” then went Lezzie…
Her 4th cousin, Lizardbeth is opening an axe throwing bar in Ontario….or so I heard…
The poor thing had to grow up without her father and stepmother. Wasn’t that enough of a punishment?
MJA, don’t try to sugarcoat it, don’t try to lead us gently to the truth…Hillary is not going to be indicted, is she? I knew it. Damn.
Typical liberal trust fund brat – spending money like there’s no tomorrow, morally corrupt, fulfilling gender fluid fantasies on someone else’s dime.
