beacuse they killed him
There reaction was what have we done and they ran to blame Henry x x x
Some violent words of Henry were taken literally by four leading knights of the court, who proceeded swiftly to Canterbury (December 29), forced themselves into the Archbishop's presence, and, on his refusal to absolve the bishops, followed him into the cathedral. There, at twilight, after further altercation, they cut him down with their swords. His last words were an acceptance of death in defense of the church of Christ.
The primary suspects in the death of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury, were four knights loyal to King Henry II of England: Reginald fitz Urse, Hugh de Morville, William de Tracy, and Richard le Bret. They believed they were acting on the king's wishes after Henry's frustration with Becket's opposition to royal authority. The knights confronted Becket in Canterbury Cathedral on December 29, 1170, leading to his murder. This act ultimately sparked outrage and led to Becket's martyrdom and canonization.
The blame for the murder of Thomas Becket was largely placed on the knights due to their direct involvement in the act, which was driven by their allegiance to King Henry II. The king's frustration with Becket's opposition to royal authority led to his infamous outburst, which the knights interpreted as a directive to take action against the archbishop. The knights, acting impulsively, believed they were serving the king's interests, but the murder ultimately reflected the deepening conflict between church and state in medieval England. This incident severely damaged the king's reputation and led to widespread condemnation of the knights' actions.

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
Becket made christians realise ow horrible the king was.

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.
