The Spanish Inquisition has become such a byword for injustice that many forget it was also a judicial system capable of acquittal. This study of more than 67,000 trials uncovers over 2,500 formal acquittals, more than 6,600 suspended trials, and nearly 2,100 with unknown or no recorded outcome.
I have a question about the book:
‘Acquittals in the Spanish Inquisition - Knutsen, Gunnar W. (University of Bergen’.
