Pardon my outrageuos laughter. Only 19 people were convicted and executed during the Salem witch panic, 20 if you count Giles Corey being pressed to death for refusing to make a plea in court. It took just under a year for all the trials and the governor's proclamation that ended the trials and pardoned all the remaining accused to happen.
