Ep 24: Axe-executioners and Moor-ders: Lizzie Borden and The Moors Murders

This week Farz goes back across the pond to tell the story of the murderous pairing of Ian Brady and Myra Hindley. These two attacked and killed children across Manchester and buried them in the moors (which is British for super big field). A Neo-Nazi found his match in a girl who would do anything for him, takes one to know one.  This is the story of the Moors Murders. Then, Taylor tells the truly American tale of Lizzie Borden and her axe (maybe!?! We don’t know that she did it for sure and we will never know!). On a Tuesday morning on a busy street Andrew and Abby Borden were brutally murdered with an axe before noon! Could it have been their daughter?Everybody together!Lizzie Borden took an axeand gave her mother forty whacks.When she saw what she had done,she gave her father forty-one.https://www.instagram.com/doom....edtofailpod/https:// - https://www.youtube.com/@doomedtofailpodPhotos of Lizzie & the Borden home via the public domainBorden house via historicaltranscripts.comIan Brady and Myra Hindley via WikipediaSome Sources:Was Lizzie Borden a Victim of Incest? - Lizzie Borden Society Forum"The Legend of Lizzie Borden" (1975) Starring Elizabeth MontgomeryEliza Darling BordenLizzie Borden Society Forum - Index page11 “Facts” About Lizzie Borden Debunked - Criminal ElementHistory's Mysteries The Strange Case Of Lizzie Borden (History Channel Documentary)https://archive.org/details/li....zzie-borden-had-an-a Borden home floor plan.The Trial of Lizzie Borden
