During a retreat of the French Army, Joan was captured by the Burgundians who were supporting the British. They sold her to the British who wanted revenge for the humiliation and embarrassment Joan had caused to them by her victories. Since they could not prosecute her for her military actions, they colluded with a British-supporting Catholic Bishop to prosecute Joan in a Church court for heresy and witchcraft.
