This clip is from the Discovery Channel’s 2004 documentary titled “Lizzie Borden Had an Axe.” In this short piece, Professor Thomas Mauriello and Detective Tom Lange (of OJ Simpson fame) examine the handleless hatchet and Abby’s scarf.
This video is meant as a tandem to the outstanding essay by Kat Koorey in the latest issue of The Hatchet. The article fully examines the history of Abby’s scarf and traces it from first mention to its current location. It is a remarkable piece of journalism and highly recommended! It is titled, “On the Trail of the Bloody Handkerchief.”
Hard copies (B&W or Color) and digital downloads of this issue are available here.
