In medieval times, there was was a point where the consequences for being considered a witch were horrible. If others pointed at you and said 'She/he is a witch!', then you would be tested. They didn't even try to find out if that person was telling the truth. They would tie you up, and chuck you in the river. If you sunk, you weren't a witch, but if you didn't you were, and they would kill you. So in the end, either way you would die!
they would drown them and if they floated they were a witchand they were going to die but if they sank they weren't a witch but they were dead anyway

Being Hanged
Well, witches used to be burned at the stake. There was many different techniques they used to determine whether they were a witch or not. - They bound their hands and feet and threw them into a river. If they floated, they were witch. If they sunk, they were proven innocent but drowned anyway. - They also used to push them off a cliff. They thought that if they were a witch, they would save themselves with spells. If they weren't then they would die. Either way, if they were accused of being a witch, it never ended well. Nowadays, there is no punishment for it. Its a religion that people can be part of and not fear the consequences. Witches can now be open and freely talk about their beliefs, practises and religion.
