How did the Salem witch trials start?
The Salem Witch trials began in February. This is important to note because it is thought that the original accusers were victims of ergot poisoning. This is a fungal infection from grain and was/is very common among those that eat improperly stored grain. One of the symptoms of ergot poisoning is the problem of hallucinations. From the transcripts of the trials, four young girls developed hallucinations and accused their neighbors of being witches. Since the community was very religious and a particular verse in the Bible says that you shall not let a witch live, the trials were of particular religious importance. The hysteria spread from their original accusations to include so many people that the judges became suspicious. In their later investigations, which stopped the trials, it became clear that the girls were enjoying their status as witch identifiers and that they accused for political and personal reasons. The court room antics of the girls are such that it seems obvious that they had become celebrities in their community and were targeting anyone that they didn't like, including a five year old girl. Judge Cotton Mather later wrote a paper on the trials in which he denounced his part in the trials and concluded that hysteria was a prime cause for the damage that was done.

What is a role of a court reporter?
Court reporters are responsible for creating word for word transcripts of anything spoken in a court room, legislature, or attorney setting. Whether it's a speech, legal proceeding, meeting, or correspondence, laws require that every spoken word must be transcribed and documented for any further use. Other than transcribing court hearings, court reporters are also responsible for completing tasks before and after each court session. While the majority of court reporters work in the courtroom, there are many needs for court reporters outside of the courtroom, in other legal settings.

How fair were the tests for witches?
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 >.<
