@where.it.happened.us: Bridget Sullivan was just scrubbing windows on a hot August morning in 1892 when the quiet of a house on Second Street in Fall River, Massachusetts broke apart for good. 🪓 Inside, Andrew Borden lay dead on the sitting room sofa. Upstairs, his wife Abby had been killed the same way nearly two hours earlier. Their daughter Lizzie called Bridget in from the yard and said someone had killed her father. By the next June, Lizzie stood trial for both murders, and a jury acquitted her after deliberating for less than an hour. No one else was ever charged, and the case has never officially been solved. 🏚️ The house at 92 Second Street still stands almost exactly as it did that morning. These days you can book a room there and spend the night in the same building where it happened. Would you stay? #LizzieBorden #FallRiverMA #TrueCrimeHistory #WhereItHappened #AmericanHistory
