One of the weirdest crimes in history is the Lizzie Borden case. There are a lot of debates on whether shes innocent or guilty. She was accused of murdering her parents with a hatchet. People said that Lizzie Borden killed them some said that it was an enemy of Andrew Borden Lizzie's father.I think that she is guilty. No one else could have done it. There is a few reasons why she is guilty. One reason is she was outraged with both of her parents, there is a lot of evidence to show she is guilty, and there was no one else in the house when it happened. So in this essay I will talk about why she is guilty and she is not innocent.

¨Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother forty whacks after she saw what she had done she gave her father forty one.¨ The issue here is that Lizzie Borden was guilty and justice was not done in court. Lizzie should have been locked up and charged for both murders that she was accused of doing. Lizzie Borden is guilty and should be charged with both murders.

Lizzie Borden took an axe, and gave her stepmother nineteen whacks. When she saw what she had done, she gave her father nine plus a killer one. On a hot August 4, 1892 at 92 Second Street in Fall River, Massachusetts, a cry came from the daughter of Andrew and Abby Borden; Lizzie Borden. Her cry attracted her neighbor Adelaide Churchill next door, so she went to Lizzie’s house. Immediately the body of Andrew Borden, Lizzie’s father, was found. A few minutes after authorities came investigating Andrew’s body, the family maid Bridget brought Adelaide with her to check upstairs for Abby, and they found out that Abby was also dead. She lay in a pool of blood and the blows from her head were dark, so she died before her husband. After the investigations of the two victims, police questioned Bridget, Emma, John Morse and Lizzie. The most suspicious suspect turned out to be Lizzie because of her change in alibis, her dress and her presence at the time being of the murders.

To murder one’s parents is a rare homicide. There are only 2% of children that murder their own parents. Unlike Lizzie Borden, it’s obvious that she committed the crime of murdering Abby and Andrew Borden, on August 3rd 1892.

A little over a century ago an atrocious double murder was committed, in the two-half story house at 92 Second Street, in Fall River, Massachusetts. This crime shocked the city of Fall River, as well as the nation, as Lizzie Borden, a 32-year-old Sunday school teacher, went on trial for the murder of her father and her stepmother. (Augustine). An all male jury eventually acquitted her on the accusations.(Aiuto). To this day, the murderer of Andrew J. Borden and Abby Gray Borden is still unknown, but in the public mind everyone believes it was Lizzie Borden.

First off, Why do you think Lizzie Borden is or is not guilty? The issue of Lizzie Borden is a complex one, but it is vital to discuss because tons of people in the 1800s believed that Lizzie Borden is not guilty. Some people think that she is guilty of a lot of reasons. Everyone from the 1800s tends to believe that Lizzie Borden is an innocent little girl that would never harm anyone in sight, but common sense seems to dedicate that Lizzie Borden is guilty in the murder of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Borden.

In 1982, Lizzie Borden became publically known for killing her mother and father in their home located in Fall River Massachusetts. Many people believe that this murder is the most notorious murder in America due to the abundance of press. Hitt J states that “Between the telephone and the newspapers, this crime became a worldwide phenomenon.” Countless people weren’t surprised at the crime that was committed, they were surprised at the person that did the crime. HittJ says, “this murder was so significant because of the brutality of the crime and the fact a woman was accused of it, most people do not associate this kind of bloody crime with a woman.”

Have you or someone you know ever been accused of doing something that you or that person would never do? The problem of the story is that Lizzie Andrew Borden was accused of the murderers of Andrew Borden and Abby Borden which were her stepmother and her father. I think that LIzzie Borden was innocent for many reasons. I think that she is not innocent because she was not in the house at the time of the murder. Also that the judge had proven her innocent so that is a good reason why she is innocent. This is why I think that Lizzie Andrew Borden is innocent.

“Women cannot be murderers.” Even though this was not explicitly stated in the newspapers, The Boston Herald in its article “Lizzie Borden” conveys the perception that the feminine ways associated with women would make it impractical for women to commit murder. Lizzie Borden, a young lady accused of brutally killing her stepmother and father with multiple blows to their heads with a hatchet was described as a religious, sincere, and modest human being in The Boston Herald’s article covering Lizzie’s life before and after the murders. During Lizzie’s youth, she suffered from isolation because of her reserved personality and belief that nobody appreciated her presence, but in womanhood turned her life around and attain friendships who vouched for her good character during the time of the investigation. The Boston Herald’s article “Lizzie Borden: Her School and Later Life - A Noble Woman, Though Retiring”, successfully persuades the reader of Lizzie Borden’s innocence with the focus on her femininity through diction and logic.

It is best described by the closing arguments for Lizzie Borden's defense, made by her attorney, George D. Robinson:

Purposeful death in the United States is a common thing, sadly, but how many are actually murder? According to Statista.com, in 2014 there were 5.1 deaths per 100,000 residents in the US. Not many of these murders were familicides, but they still happen, and in the case of Lizzie Borden, she killed her parents. It is crystal clear that Lizzie Borden killed her parents, and there is plenty of evidence to prove it.

The monster I have chosen is Bagul or also know as “Mr. Boogie” from a very current film called Sinister. Since around the Babylonian time, Bagul has been a divinity that orders the brains and souls of the kids and compels them to kill their families, filming the gruesome moments and saving the soul of the possessed children to enroll other qualified suitors. Their souls and bodies are taken, provoking a progression of associated occurrences nobody has figured out how to reveal. The sections of stories that have survived, they all rotate around Bagul requiring the souls of human children to survive. Every story includes an alternate way that he baits or traps these kids far from the mortal world and traps them in his own realm and he devours their souls after time passes. Any support of this divinity would incorporate a blood offering or the meal of a child. Bagul shares qualities with some certifiable divinity individuals that seem highly credible. He imparts similitudes to Moloch, an agnostic god revered by Canaanites

Lizzie Borden was found innocent by law, so why should it be questioned?
