Extremly unfair, I done the Salem witch trials in English last year, and they tested for witches mainly due to what people said. If you had an enemy, and said, yeah shes a witch, i saw her spirit come into my room last night, they wouldn't take the opinion from the person, they had to either admit to being a witch or not.
If they pleaded guilty, they lived, and were purified by the church, and if they pleaded innocent (truthful or not) they were excecuted.
I know that at some point they also dunk them into water, and if they survived, they were a witch, if not, they werent. Its all completely unfair and cruel what they did >.<

How does the very first line Macbeth speaks echo one of the paradoxical lines spoken by the witches in the very first scene of the play?
In Macbeth's first line, he echoes the witches' paradoxical line "Fair is foul, and foul is fair" by stating "So foul and fair a day I have not seen." This creates a parallel between Macbeth's fate and the supernatural forces at play, suggesting that what seems fair or good may actually be foul or evil, and vice versa. The use of paradox in both instances foreshadows the themes of deception and moral ambiguity throughout the play.
What does so foul and fair a day i have not seen mean in Macbeth?
What is significant is that it echoes the witches' line "Fair is foul and foul is fair; hover through the fog and filthy air", thus connecting Macbeth with the witches and showing how they anticipate what will happen to him. And of course both quotations talk about the moral ambiguity of what is and what seems to be in the play.
