RAS #580 – The Lizzie Borden Story

On Ron’s Amazing Stories we have a special episode of Ghost Stories With Sylvia. It has been a bit since we have had Sylvia on, but the wait was worth it! We will have an entire show dedicated to one of most celebrated true crime stories of centuries past, The Lizzie Borden Axe Murders. Was Lizzie guilty? Who were the players? Press that play button and find out.

Also, this week we will be doing a video version of the show complete with a slide presentation. You will be able to watch this on the Ron’s Amazing Stories YouTube channel. It is my hope to do more of these types of presentations in the future.

Next’s Week’s Podcast – Lizzie Borden

Next week’s podcast is going to be a special extended show featuring our very own Sylvia Shults. Sylvia is going to be presenting the true crime story The Lizzie Borden Story. You won’t want to miss it. Also, if you listen to the show on our Youtube Channel you will be able to follow along with both photos and slides. This is a first for the podcast and I can’t wait for you to see and hear it.

Featured Story – Dr Ruxton Ax Murderer

The Secrets Of Scotland Yard

To warm us up for next week’s special podcast about Lizzy Borden I thought I would head to the series The Secrets Of Scotland Yard and play the true crime episode titled Dr Ruxton, Axe Killer. A well loved doctor is arrested for chopping up his wife and 20-year-old servant into 200 pieces of carnage. It first aired in the United States sometime in 1957. I will warn you that there are some very scary bits early in the story.

Other Stories Include – Methodical To A Fault, We Are Legion – We Are Bob, The Goats Of Chupacabra, The Ghost Girl, West Lawn Pavilion, Dr Ruxton – Ax Murderer, and Not So Important Times In History – Detroit Cops
