Richard brito was the knight who killed thomas becket(archbishop of Canterbury) in 1170 he sliced the top of beckets head then with the tip of his sword took out beckets brains.
when he was crowned Archbishop of Canterbury by Henry II
Henry II chose Thomas Becket to be Chancellor (1155-1162) and then ABp of Canterbury (1162-1170)
Henry II and Thomas Becket fell out. (IDK what that means, but it was on a historical paper...)
well i suppose he was okay but he was the cause of thomas beckets death so that kinda makes him drop a level... :D
The names of the four knights were Reginald FitzUrse, William de Tracey, Hugh de Morville, and Richard le Breton. It was on the 29th of December, 1170, and the knights came barging into Canterbury Cathedral. They stuck three swords into him, and with the forth they cut of his head. And, as gruesome as it is, they scattered his brains around the cathedral.
The king was to blame for Thomas Becket's murder because he told the knights to kill Thomas but the knights didn't had to do what he said but they did and hit Thomas in the head and killed him. Also Thomas told the monks to leave the door open so the monks did. Also the king shouldn't have wanted to kill him anyway and the Knights had to obey the kings orders
The possessive form of "murderers" is "murderers'."
beacuse they killed him
