In #ElyAssizes we've come across Margaret Webb of Wilburton, accused in 1602 of causing 3 deaths by witchcraft. She was found guilty of 2 of the deaths & sentenced to hang.

6 women accused of causing harm by witchcraft in earlier years (c1572-1590s) were all found not guilty. pic.twitter.com/lCW6k5jLT5
