  • Keep Emma is notable, if not as notorious as her sister. When in 2008 a second picture of Emma as an adult was found, it was newsworthy.[http://www.heraldnews.com/homepage/x1720687532/A-new-development-in-Borden-history]. Given how few known pictures there are of her, the number of image results in Google for her is surprisingly high.[http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&as_epq=Emma+Borden&as_oq=&as_eq=&num=10&lr=&as_filetype=&as_sitesearch=&as_qdr=all&as_rights=&as_occt=any&cr=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&safe=images&q=%22Emma+Borden%22&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=pGBXSruiEo-ltgf00KzdCg&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ct=title&resnum=1]. As recently as 1984, and probably more recently, people have been publishing theories that she was the true criminal.
