Who is fault was the death of Thomas Becket?
Henry II as he said ' Who will rid me of this trubelsome priest' I don't think Henry meant it that way as the knights who killed becket did. The King Said 'Who will rid me of this trubelsome priest'; Once Thomas was killed the king said he didn't mean that he should actually be killed - The day after his death, apparently he walked around the Cathedral with his back being whipped to say sorry To Thomas. So its really your decision. The King blamed Himself; But the knights blamed themselves. :)-Lana
