First the accused witches were dunked into a river, to see if they were innocent or guilty. If they floated, they were considered guilty and burnt at the stake. If they sank, they were innocent but died anyway, by drowning. Either way, they perished.
Afterwards we had a discussion to decide if this was a fair punishment.
Yes it is fair 13%
No it isn't fair 87%
How can it be fair if either way the person dies. Innocent people shouldn't be punished.
