What did rebbeca do to get on the list of the Salem witch trials?
It depends on which theory of what caused the afllictions you believe. If it is one of the ones that argue that the girls were concious of what they were doing, it might be because Ann Putnam's family had had land disputes with Rebbeca Nurse. If it is one that something caused them to do it without knowing they were wrong, she did absolutly nothing.
Who were the first people to be accused during the Salem Witch Trials?
The religious zealots. <----- This answer is not true. The real truth is that in 1688, Samuel Parris was invited to preach at the church in Salem, Massachusettes, and to bring his family, his wife, Elizabeth, his six-year-old daughter Betty, niece Abagail Williams, and his Indian slave Tituba. The village girls were caught fortune-telling with Tituba, and to save themselves, blamed older women and men of being in league with the devil, and forcing them to do witchcraft. The accusers were all young girls. 25 people died between June 10th and October 1st, 1692.

Why did Arthur miller write about the Red Scare?
Arthur Miller wrote about the Red Scare, specifically in his play "The Crucible," to comment on the hysteria and paranoia surrounding communism in the United States during the 1950s.

Later, the person's hands would be bound, and the witch put in jail overnight. In the morning, she or he would be "examined" so see if the so-called cure worked. They pronounced long and loud: if this person IS a witch, then, when we take the bandages off, there will be burn-marks and blisters.If the person was found to be a (so-called witch), then they were "tested again" (in a loud voice the torturers would claim e.g. "If the witch is a witch, she will cough up water" and the they would grab the person, innocent or guilty, and "dunk them" (hold their heads under water until they nearly drowned, and then pull them out of the water).Well, really. There's a whole long list of things they did: totally ignorant.
