As always, your daily lessons broaden your readers' knowledge and wonder. Lizzie Bordan brings to mind the Menendez brothers and the W. Somerset Maugham short story RAIN. No one knows what goes on in other people's homes and the evidence of poor decision-making extends from Lizzy's father to Chamberlain's conciliatory actions towards Hitler, to FDR's hesitation in allowing Jews to escape the holocaust, the OJ trial, and Christopher Wray's testimony.
The imaginary world of time and space allows Satan to manipulate and poison our minds. Scripture points to a future world of peace and decency. We are near the finish line and we must finish the race with love and gusto.
It is interesting to note that one of Lizzie's alibis for her innocense is that she was a Sunday School teacher. I wonder how much that would be accepted as a serious consideration for one's defence of innocense with a corrupt judiciary prevalent today?

Something tells me she'd be more likely to be convicted.
