    I was watching show about people making false murder confessions. And one of the murder suspects was in an interrogation room for hour and hours. And the cop who was interogating him seriously thought did it and would not take no for an answer. And when he reized the cop wasn't going to change his mind he confessed. He later was proven innocent. But just imagine telling the truth and then someone who had authority over you believed it was you 100%. That shit would be scary as hell and this reminds me of that episode. The superstition and believes back then were like wow. That would suck.

    "James the First had written about it in his book "Daemonology": He said that by accepting the Devil, the witch rejected the sacred waters of baptism, and as a result the water would reject the witch's body and he or she would float. If the suspect floated, he was a witch and should be executed. But if the suspect hadn't rejected the waters of baptism, then he would sink as the waters embaced him, and he was proved innocent. Of course, there was also a great chance that we would drown. So by the time he arrived here, sink or swim, John Loads was a dead man".
    Rubbish. His head could be out of the water so the suspect could breathe. If the water would reject him, he would pop out of it like an inflated ball. Plus, if the suspect drowned, the witchfinder wound be accused of murder. Right?
