Two methods were:
- trial by ordeal, in which the accused had to pass a
dangerous test, like thrown into a well, and
- trial by combat, in which he had to fight to prove his
innocence. The two methods for deciding the guilt or innocence of accused criminals in the early middle ages were trial by combat or ordeal.

Trial by Ordeal was a common method of establishing guilt or innocence in Church court cases under Canon Law and in certain cases under the king's law. The particular Ordeal is not always recorded in the documents relating to trials (only whether the accused failed or passed) so we can not know which particular ordeals were used most frequently. The idea of any Trial by Ordeal was that God should be the judge, jury and witness; the ordeal was intended to allow God to intervene (or not) as He wished, thus indicating guilt or innocence. In one version of ordeal by fire, the accused person was blindfolded in a room with a stone floor. Red-hot scraps of iron (sometimes ploughshares) were then scattered about the floor and the accused had to cross the room without burning his/her feet. If he/she were innocent, God would direct his/her feet safely across - if not, the smell of burning flesh. In another version the accused had to grasp in one hand a piece of iron heated to red-hot. If the burns healed cleanly, the verdict would be "innocent". If there were any infection, then it was "guilty". The odds were always stacked heavily against anyone being declared innocent, whether in ordeal by fire or ordeal by water. The safest course was always to admit guilt from the outset and plead for mercy.
You would have to be more specific about who you mean as the followers. I can tell you that the Romans' method of killing, that seems so inhumane to us, was justified to them. Remember they lived in a different time and in a different culture. First of all they believed in making the punishment fit the crime as far as possible. For example, if a person was guilty of arson, he was burnt alive. If someone had murdered someone, he was given a sword and forced to fight other criminals in the arena, one after another, until he was finally dispatched. The executions were public executions, acting as a warning and possible deterrent to other would -be criminals.

Yes, technology has both positive and negative impacts on crime and criminals. Criminals can use technology to commit new types of crimes, such as hacking and online fraud. However, technology also enables law enforcement to track and catch criminals more effectively through tools like surveillance cameras and digital forensics.

True
A trial by ordeal was a primitive method of determining a person's guilt or innocence by subjecting the accused person to dangerous or painful tests believed to be under divine control; escape was usually taken as a sign of innocence. in England a woman accused of being a witch was tide to a chair which hung over a pond. She was lowered into the pond for a period of time. If she survived the ordeal she was let go. If she drowned it proved her to be a witch and was buried outside of church grounds. Trial by combat was between an opposing enemy. Boxing could be classed as a combat. Anything where fighting took place between opposite forces or individuals.
The punishment for normal criminals is keeping them locked in a cell, a small, dirty room with only a toilet, bed and sometimes another criminal. They must do work, perhaps cleaning up litter.
It is known as the criminals "M.O." or Modus Operandi,which transaltes literally as their "method of operation." Many (most?) criminals tend to repeat those actions which have proved successful for them in the past, thereby setting a pattern of behavior.
In the 16th century, guilt or innocence was often determined through various methods including trial by ordeal, trial by combat, and trial by jury. These trials relied on supernatural beliefs or physical strength to establish innocence. Confessions obtained through torture were also commonly used as evidence of guilt.
