It is disputed wether Robespierre shot himself in an attempt to commit suicide, or if he was hit by a bullet from the gendarme Merda during his arrest. His jaw was shattered, but he did not die. Amid cross-rumors of treason, (he himself had threatened to disclose a list of enemies of the nation) he was sent to the guillotine without any trial, as well as a 22 of his followers. On the two next days, 83 other people who had supported him were also beheaded.
An anonymous epitaph for him reads:
"passer-by, do not pity me; if I were alive, you would be dead"
