The Salem Witch Trials, 1692 is the setting for this investigation into a few of the actual cases. The author offers the readers the opportunity to thoroughly examine all the existing written evidence against just four of the accused families and learn everything possible about the witnesses and accusers necessary for investigating their trials. As in any criminal investigation, the reader will find more than suspicion of greed, anger, decades old vengeance and misunderstanding as the basis for accusation and motive. The fingerprints of the religious hands are all over the intense fervor of the community as well as on the judges’ misunderstanding and mishandling of the trials. The reader will also find the apparent abuse of young minds by certain adults as the means in order to set the stage for this travesty. The most disturbing thing you will find is the religious justification for all of it.
