Have you ever killed some one? Over a 100 years ago Lizzie's parents were brutally murdered by someone and the only person they focused on was the daughter lizzie borden. Lizzie Borden was the axe murderer no doubt about it because all the signs pointed to no other than Lizzie herself. The reason I think Lizzie killed her parents was because she didn't like her stepmother and thought if she didn't kill her father her father would think its her. Lizzie is a true mastermind to have gotten away with murder because there is no other explanation to Lizzie's parents brutal death.

Lizzie was acquitted of the murdering her parents but there wasn't enough physical evidence against her to prove that she was the axe murderer that killed her parents. Lizzie hid her steps very well and played it off real cool but she forgot one thing this is the 21 century and although it has never been really solve I can show you my thinking of what happened.

Although they didn't find her guilty with the evidence I portrayed to you to day it is pretty clear to say that she was the axe murderer.

The most valuable thing that I learned by reading this is that Lizzie “took one for the team”. This is because at first everything pointed towards Lizzie killing the Bordens with a hatchet but once I finished reading the book it proved to me that Lizzie just did it to be a good person. This book could be recommended to anyone who is past the age of 16 because it has wording that younger people could not understand. Not only that but the story itself is about a gruesome killing and that wouldn 't be a good fit for someone who was young. Although I say I would recommend this book to anyone over 16, I really would recommend this book to anyone who is willing to read it because it is very entertaining and it keeps the reader wondering

Because they did not have any other good evidence to prove that she killed her daughter, but that one piece of evidence alone could have convicted her of murdering her daughter.

We know this because it states in Article #2 that, “The front wall is only sixteen feet from the sidewalk, where at all hours of the day people are passing, for the street is a main thoroughfare. The next house on the north is only twenty feet away.

The law is well settled that each and every incriminating circumstance is required to be clearly established with supporting evidences and also the chain of events should be complete in such a manner that the only conclusion which could be drawn is guilt of the accused and no other hypothesis against the guilt is possible.
