Robespierre began killing more and more people who MAY have been against the consitution in the slightest way. He started killing people of his grouped, even if they were just suggesting that thing were getting out of control. Finally, everyone came together and saught to arrest him. He tried to commit suicide, but he only blew his jaw off with a gun and they still carried him to jail. They beheaded him in front of everyone.

Was reign of terror robespierre's fault?

Almost certainly not. Robespierre did not join the Committee of Public Safety until the main lines of the Terror had been laid down. He came to be associated with it because he was the best-known and most popular member of the Committee, but the instpiration behind the Terror was essentially military and inspired not by Robespierre but by Carnot. The other members were happy to let Robespierre take the responsibility for the Terror, but his fall was caused at least partly by the more extreme members wanting to get rid of Robespierre because he was in fact opposed to the extreme aspects of the policy.
