Before you go, think about this…
In several cases of young women accused of witchcraft, they had an excellent alibi—they were in the arms of their husband when they were allegedly at a witches sabbat.

He could not protest too long else he too would be accused of witchcraft and incarcerated for life in Guantanamo Bay.
