Matthew Hopkins, known as the "Witchfinder General" during the English Civil War, is credited with the prosecution of around 300 individuals accused of witchcraft between 1644 and 1647. He was instrumental in the execution of many of these alleged witches, although exact numbers can vary depending on sources. His activities were part of a larger witch-hunt phenomenon in England during that period, leading to significant controversy and criticism over his methods.
148 were killed because of his accusations.
Matthew Hopkins, known as the "Witchfinder General" during the English Civil War, was reported to have earned about £40 for each witch he condemned to be hanged. This compensation was partly due to the fees he received from the local authorities for his services in identifying and prosecuting alleged witches. His activities contributed to the execution of many individuals, often under dubious circumstances, and his pursuit of witchcraft became infamous in English history.

Physical torture was illegal in England. However their definition of torture was rather loose. Suspects could be forced to stay awake for as many as 5 days. They were forced to run around the room until they collapsed from exhaustion. The swimming test was not torture, it tested if they were a witch or not and was NOT designed to make them confess.
