Lizzie Borden Society Forum

Is it possible that Lizzie had some enemies, and that maybe they killed her father? Then made it look like she did it? Maybe they didn't like LIzzie's father either, so they were killing two birds with one stone so to speak. Kill the parents and then frame Lizzie. Just a thought.

Shelley also mentioned (previously) the idea of checking possible enemies of Lizzie in another thread.

Remote chance, - yes- but there was no love lost between those two women. Rather than looking for enemies of Andrew, I have always thought they should have looked for enemies of Lizzie.

Imagine that!!! People who will scoff at Arnold Brown's research and book, then adopt an imagined rumor.

Who had hatred for Lizzie then?

Anyone could have had a hatred for Lizzie. The same person that could have hatred towards Andy could have taken it out on Lizzie. Anything is possible. Somebody could have hated the whole family for what we know.

NO! Whoever was there that day did not attack Lizzie after whacking Abby; or Andy. This is another way to filter out the suspects. I won't include this under "Brown's Theory - Part x".

Someone who would be shielded by Lizzie (and did not hate her).
Someone whose guilt would be shielded by the "Silent Government" of Fall River.

Given the above, how many men would pass through this filter?

Maybe they hated her that much that they didn't come forword and say they did it. They wanted her to go to prison.
