Sarah Osburn and Sarah Good
In The Crucible by Arthur Miller, Tituba accuses Goody Good and Goody Osburn of being involved in witchcraft. She said that the devil came to her at night and that Goody Good and Goody Osburn were with him.
She accuses Tituba of forcing her to drink charms at night and dance.
It was easier for her to place the blame on a woman who isn't like the rest of the townsfolk, seeing as she came from barbados, which was known for the practice of voodoo.
Hale believes Abigail over Tituba because 1.) Tituba was one of the first people accused of being a witch in Salem. 2.) Tituba is black and there is a large racial discrimination.
Tituba's confession then causes a series of questions to be asked of her which cause her to accuse other people in Salem Town, such as Goody Good. After Tituba starts accusing so does Abigail and Betty [after the girl miraculously wakes up]. After the girls all start sceaming out names, Act I draws to a close. With Tituba's confession, the whole trials begin. If Tituba hadn't confessed, it more than likely would have ended with her and the trials would not have even taken place. But, if she wouldn't have confessed there wouldn't have really even been a play.
Tituba is allowed to live if she names the people she has seen with the Devil and if she becomes a saved Christian.
