The author gives seven reasons to believe that Lizzie Borden willfully and deliberately murdered both her father and her step-mother on August 4, 1892. The author also proposes that the reasons for her subsequent acquittal were far more related to both cultural and cloistered local societal values than they were with the actual evidence presented in the case.
