Excerpt: "She was the first to be tried in what would become known as the Bloody Assizes and stirred a feeling of discomfort about the judicial system, not just in England but across many nations. The jury prevaricated, believing her story that she gave food water and shelter to those who arrived at her door in need. Judge Jeffreys was beside himself with rage and as the jury made their deliberations he sought to bully a guilty verdict out of them and reluctantly they gave it."
