Episode 10 | The Strange Case of Lizzie Borden | Part I: A Quiet House
Manage episode 519515218 series 3694091
Long before the murders that made her a household name, Lizzie Borden lived in a world shaped by Victorian rules. The strict gender expectations, family duty, and an obsession with reputation. Fall River’s elite valued quiet conformity, and the Borden household embodied those values almost to a fault.
But under that stillness, resentments were simmering. Money, inheritance, a strained step-mother relationship, mysterious illnesses, and rumors of break-ins all chipped away at the peace of 92 Second Street.
