The Fall River Murders and The Trial of Lizzie Borden, Vol I

De: Jim D. Jordan

Narrado por: W.B. Ward

For one 123 years the mystery of Lizzie Borden has captivated the public as perhaps one of the most celebrated cases in our American justice system. After her acquittal, Lizzie Borden was ostracized in her hometown of Fall River, Massachusetts. She was even mocked in the now-famous children's skip rope rhyme which went: "Lizzie Borden took an ax - Gave her mother 40 whacks - When she saw what she had done - Gave her father 41." Perhaps the truth lies in the key testimonies presented at the time of her trial. For the first time presented here in this easy to listen dialog format, is the full transcript of The Trial of Lizzie Borden.

Not as interesting as I had hoped

This is the records from the court case. It’s about exciting as watching paint dry. With that said, from the evidence presented, I don’t think Lizzy Borden killed her parents.

Great read

Real enjoyed the book. Loved the subject. Felt like you were sitting at the trial.

Excellent!

This gives great insight into the case from before nning through the trail. the details are very concise and the Narration is very good. I can't wait to start the second part.

Fantastic!

Did Lizzie Borden really back her father and step-mother to death? In. The Fall River Murders: Trial Of Lizzie Borden Volumn I you can judge for yourself as W.B. Ward reads the first part of the original court transcript.

This reviewer found the audio book riviting and is anxiously awaiting Volumn II. I can't help but wonder if the trial shouldn't be re-opened for two reasons: men's opinions of women being delicate creatures, a popular opinion of the time, also there seems to be some conflicting evidence in Volumn I. So, did she do it?

Did she or didn't she?

This is an intriguing account of an unsolved mystery. Volumn 1 tells of the events surrounding the brutal slayings of Mr. Andrew Borden and his wife Abby. The main suspect was his daughter Lizzie. Her subsequent trial is told here from court transcripts. Spoiler alert, she was acquitted. The author has done a great job presenting the details in "edge of your seat" fashion. W.B. Ward does an excellent job narrating and doing the voices of the characters involved. I am looking forward to hearing Volumn 2!
