    She was acquitted on this day, 6/20 in 1893.

Lizzie Andrew Borden (July 19, 1860 – June 1, 1927) was an American woman tried and acquitted of the August 4, 1892, axe murders of her father and stepmother in Fall River, Massachusetts. No one else was charged in the murders, and despite ostracism from other residents, Borden spent the remainder of her life in Fall River. She died of pneumonia at age 66, just days before the death of her older sister, Emma.

No weed option?  How about some laudanum?

            He would have prescribed her WEED.

Nah, he would have prescribed Laudanum, or maybe Opium by pipe and if he had she would have been a much more mellow person and wouldn't even think about using an axe.
