Duke of Northhumberland
Mary, Queen of Scots was executed in 1587 because she was implicated in a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I of England. This plot, known as the Babington Plot, led to Mary being convicted of treason and subsequently executed at Fotheringhay Castle. Her execution was also influenced by political tensions and power struggles of the time.
She was heir to the throne, and also a Catholic so many people who were Catholics in England supported her. The problem was Elizabeth was afraid that she might try to overthrow her so she sent spies in to where Mary was being held prisoner and they discovered a plot to overthrow Elizabeth. Mary and a man called Anthony Babington were executed for treason.
Mary Queen of Scots was implicated in plots to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I, most notably in the Babington Plot of 1586, which aimed to overthrow Elizabeth and place Mary on the English throne. While there is evidence suggesting that Mary was involved in conspiracies against Elizabeth, the extent of her direct involvement remains debated among historians. Ultimately, these plots contributed to Mary's imprisonment and execution in 1587, as Elizabeth viewed her as a legitimate threat to her reign.
I think you mean the babington plot; a plot in 1586 organized to remove Elizabeth I from power and replace her with Mary Stuart, known as Mary Queen of Scots. The plot involved Catholic support and was uncovered largely by the work of Francis Walsingham, Elizabeth I's spymaster. The plot led to the execution of Mary Stuart in 1587, as Elizabeth finally had clear proof that mary had plotted against her. It can be seen as a (tenuous) cause of the Spanish Armada in 1588.

Yes. The Duke of Norfolk.

Allegedly for the throne of England.
No, Queen Elizabeth I was never locked in the Tower of London. However, she was imprisoned there for a brief period in 1554 when she was accused of complicity in a plot to overthrow her half-sister, Queen Mary I. After her release, she went on to rule England from 1558 until her death in 1603, becoming one of the most famous monarchs in history.
For the conspiracy of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln
Mary, Queen of Scots, was executed on February 8, 1587, primarily due to her involvement in plots to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I of England and reclaim the English throne for herself. After being imprisoned for 19 years, she was implicated in the Babington Plot, which sought to overthrow Elizabeth. Fearing that Mary posed a significant threat to her reign and the stability of England, Elizabeth ultimately signed her death warrant. Mary's execution highlighted the intense religious and political conflicts of the time, as she was a Catholic figurehead against Protestant rule.
The Babington Letter was a correspondence in 1586 revealing a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I of England. It was written by Anthony Babington to Mary, Queen of Scots, discussing a plan to overthrow Elizabeth and place Mary on the English throne. The letter was intercepted by Elizabeth's spies, leading to Babington's arrest and ultimately Mary's execution.
