    Did they not just dig it up so they could put his head on a spike for all to see?

    Ask anyone from Ireland or Scotland at that time if it was justified and your head would be on a feckin spike for even questioning it 😂

      No it was by trial and meant as punishment. Quite common even, but I first heard of it in relation to Cromwell c.s.
