What happened to Herodias after the death of John the Baptist?
According to the gospels, Herodias' daughter performed a sensual dance at a great party in Galilee. This pleased Herod Antipas, and he promised her anything that she wanted. She asked her mother what she should request, and Herodias said to ask for John the Baptist's head on a platter. Because Antipas had given his word, he was forced to give the daughter what she asked for. The synoptic gospels tell us that this happened shortly after the baptism, or about 29 CE. John's Gospel, whose author might have had doubts about this story, is more circumspect, although conceding that the execution took place during the lifetime of Jesus.The first century Jewish historian, Josephus, tell us that John the Baptist died in quite different circumstances and much later in time. John was imprisoned and executed in the castle of Macherus, to the east of the Dead Sea and far from Galilee, because he had publicly criticised Antipas' marriage to his own brother's former wife, and Antipas feared that continuation of this criticism could lead to insurrection. The gospels agree that the Baptist had criticised this marriage, but Josephus makes it clear that the marriage took place in 34 CE and that the imprisonment and execution took place in 35 or 36 CE. There is no suggestion that Herodias was ever involved in the death of John the Baptist or even knew of his imprisonment and execution.The gospels do not complete their account with the ultimate fate of Herodias for her evil deed and, since the story is a literary creation, it can not be completed from history. As to history, the death of John would have had no bearing on the subsequent life of Herodias.

Who demanded the head of John the Baptist?
Salome was the one who asked of King Herod the head of John the Baptist. Salome had pleased Herod by dancing before him and Herod asked her to choose a reward, even if it be have his kingdom. Salome consulted with her mother, Herodias, with whom Herod was having an affair. Angered by John's public condemnation of this adulterous affair, Herodias told Salome to ask for John's head. You can read this account in the Bible in St. Matthew 14:6-8. Of interest, tradition records that Salome had a bad end, accidentally becoming impaled on a wedge of ice during an elaborate banquet.

Did Herod Antipas respect John the Baptist?
A:In the gospel accounts, Herod Antipas held a party in Galilee for the senior men. The daughter of his new wife, Herodias, entranced him with her dancing and he offered to give her anything she wanted. Herodias wanted John the Baptist dead for criticising her marriage to Antipas, after divorcing Philip, so she told her daughter to ask for John's head on a platter. Herod Antipas was loathe to have John killed, but was forced to keep his promise. The gospels suggest that Herod Antipas' reluctance was due to his respect for John. The historical account, provided by Josephus, is somewhat different. The gospel account is correct in that John the Baptist had publicly criticised Antipas' marriage to Herodias, which took place in 34 CE. But Herod himself had wanted John killed, lest he start an uprising among the people of Galilee. Herod Antipas' respect for John the Baptist was out of fear for the hold he had over the people and the damage John could do by continuing to criticise him. Herod's respect was such that wanted John dead as quickly as possible, in faraway Macherus where the execution could take place without causing a riot. In the historical account, there was no party in Galilee and no head on a platter. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews says:"Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death. In this way, he might prevent any mischief John might cause, and not bring himself into difficulties by sparing a man who might make him repent of it when it would be too late. Accordingly John was sent as a prisoner, out of Herod's suspicious temper, to Macherus, the castle I already mentioned, and was put to death."
