Is Lizzie Andrew Borden Guilty? I have a very simple answer, yet rather a complex answer to that. Most people in this day an age believe that she was guilty. Now, why out of everyone in the town of Fall River would you choose this poor innocent lady who supposedly loved her parents so much that she hacked her mother 18 times and her father 11.

Also in Lizzie Borden: An Account “ The most important of these witnesses, twenty-six-year-old Bridget Sullivan, testified that Lizzie was the only person she saw in the home at the time her parents were murdered…” “3”. Now you can be innocent and have a murder happen in your house while you’re inside the exact same house, but what is wrong with this incident is that there was no forced entry on any of the windows or doors really doesn’t help your case that you’re
