Best Answer

One could theoretically be both. In Joan of Arc's case she was convicted by the English as a Heretic and a Witch and burned at the stake, however, many people including her executioner did not believe that. Additionally 25 years after her death the Church launched its own inquisition into Joan of Arc and definitively proclaimed her innocent of all charges levied against her. She was later Cannonized in 1920 and is currently one of the Patron Saints of France as well as Warriors.
