In 1648, while Charles was in Carisbrook Castle negosiating with Parliment, he secretly persuaded the Scpots to invade England. The second Civil War broke out. The Royalists were easily defeated, but many people were killed. Parliment nolonger trusted Charles. They decieded he had to put on trial for treason. The trial was fixed for 20th of January 1649, in Westminister Hall. Many people on Parliments side were very reluctunt to get involved in the trial. they were scared that if he didn't get executed then they might get killed, also James II, who was going to get on the throne after Charles would tract them down and kill them. This is what happened to Oliver Cromwell, and others who singned the statement. Even the bones of those who had already died were dug out of their graves and burnt. So, many top lawyers and judges escaped the country. A High Court of Justice was set up, made of just 135 commissioners, who were really both judges and jury. But on the first day only 68 of 135 turned up.
