    Danforth's Witch Hunt, Is it Justified? (An Essay on the Crucible) I write in response to your column regarding Judge Danforth's actions during the witch trials in Salem.

On August 4th, 1892, one of the most said murder mysteries took place in Fall River, Massachusetts. Now, when the evidence is reviewed, the facts are not that vague and doubts are melted away. El...
