If You Could Know One Thing for Certain...

Post by dalcanton »

Aside from the obvious question of “Who killed the Bordens?”, if you could know one thing for certain about the Borden case, what would it be? Me, personally – I’d like to know what was in that “bundle” in Emma’s closet.

I'd like to know a little more about the personality of our dear Emma.

Regardless of who committed the homicides, whether it was Lizzie or someone else, I would like to know if there was any other person who KNEW the identity of the murder(s), and if so, how they knew.

I'd like to know how Lizzie lived with herself; did she have nightmares about the murder, about her father, etc.

It's an interesting topic.

mmmmmmmm...., I want to know many things indeed, for example, did Morse really receive a call that morning? Did he bring the alleged Andrew's letter with him the 3rd August? ... But if I could know only one thing for certain, I would say...

In the coffin of Morse, are there any other things beside his body?

And this wish could be still realizable.

Childish? Maybe. But I really want to know this for certain.

Who do you think put something in Morse's coffin? What do you think was put in Morse's coffin?

Imagine it, my friend.

Sorry, could I be certain for another thing?

I would like to know if anyone did --- or didn't --- inform Morse the location of Andrew's body.
