Lizzie Borden was acquitted of the 1892 axe murders, yet a notorious nursery rhyme still casts her as the killer. Terrifying & True returns to Fall River, Massachusetts, to examine the deaths of Andrew and Abby Borden and the evidence presented at her 1893 trial. From the disputed barn alibi and burned dress to the handleless hatchet, follow the clues that fueled suspicion without securing a conviction. We trace the murder timeline and alternate theories, separating the historical record from folklore to ask what investigators could prove—and why the killings remain unsolved.
