This week on Killers, Cults and Queens, Nikki and Cheryl dig into one of the most notorious murder cases in American history... the brutal killings of Andrew and Abby Borden. They rewind the clock to explore the life of Lizzie Borden and ask the chilling question: was she a cold-blooded killer, or an innocent caught in a storm of suspicion?
