The $600 clue from the Jeopardy round category YOU CAN QUOTE ME ON THAT

“AT HER INQUEST THIS WOMAN WHO INSPIRED A RHYME SAID, “I KNEW THERE WAS AN OLD AXE DOWN IN THE CELLAR. THAT IS ALL I KNEW””

Answer:

“WHO IS LIZZIE BORDEN?”

Dude, what the hell Trebek?! You’re gonna just leave us all hanging? Fine, I’ll Google that shit!

Who loves you more than me? Here you go:

Lizze Borden took an axe

And gave her mother forty whacks

When she saw what she had done
