April 5th: Clementine Barnabet Confesses (1912) In the early 20th century something strange was happening in the United States. Ax murders, ones like those of the Servant Girl Annihilator and the Axeman of New Orleans, were taking place all in the same pockets of the country and with little to no information pointing to a killer’s identity. On April 5th 1912 a young woman confessed to her involvement in a handful of these mysterious ax murders. A woman whose life, race, and upbringing became the catalyst for crimes that, to this day, we don’t know if she actually committed.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clementine_Barnabet, https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/502014/voodoo-murders-clementine-barnabet-who-claimed-have-killed-35-people, https://973thedawg.com/serial-axe-murderer-clementine-barnabet-video/, line-up.com/clementine-barnabet&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1680278006552726&usg=AOvVaw1b4SiG9dZVmDIh5j2RAtGM">https://the-line-up.com/clementine-barnabet, https://acadianahistorical.org/items/show/73, https://www.grunge.com/705208/this-is-how-many-victims-clementine-barnabet-actually-had/, https://www.grunge.com/365510/what-you-didnt-know-about-serial-killer-clementine-barnabet/
