Queen Elizabeth I did not personally kill her cousin, Mary, Queen of Scots. However, Mary was executed in 1587 after being implicated in plots to assassinate Elizabeth and seize the English throne. Elizabeth initially hesitated to sign the death warrant but ultimately did so under pressure from her advisors and the political climate of the time. The execution was a significant event in Elizabeth's reign and reflected the intense rivalry between the two queens.
