The Trial of Lizzie Borden: a true story

“The Trial of Lizzie Borden: a true story.” Yeah, I know, everyone says that, but trust me this is NOT just another Podcast about Lizzie Borden. It's not “Lizzie in the drawing room with a hatchet” offering. We won't try to convince you that Lizzie was pregnant, or sleeping with Bridget, or even did the deed naked. My guest today, lawyer and author Cara Robertson, instead covers in detail the legal proceedings, of which there were many, in the infamous murder trial and acquittal of Lizzie Borden. There is also a little treat in store. You will get to hear Ms. Robertson's portrayal of Emma Borden in a Mock Trial presided over by Supreme Court Justices William Rehnquist and Sarah Day O'Connor. How's that? Without further ado, please welcome to Murder Most Foul, Cara Robertson.
