This week, The Sip and Saga Society dives into the notorious 1892 murder case of the Borden Family in Fall River, Massachusetts. Set against the backdrop of a bustling industrial town, we’ll unpack the family dynamics and the tensions that spiraled into tragedy. We’ll shine a light on Lizzie’s complicated relationships, especially with her stepmom, along with the strange circumstances around the murders. Even with conflicting stories and no solid proof, Lizzie was found not guilty, capturing the media’s attention and public curiosity. This case remains a fascinating chapter in American crime history, partly because it was one of the first to use crime scene photos as evidence!
