☆ England’s last ‘witch’ may have survived execution, new research suggests
  + stars: | 2024-10-31 | by ( Julia Buckley | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
But new research suggests that one English woman convicted of witchcraft and condemned to be hanged may have escaped the noose. Alice Molland – who has long held the tragic record of being the last woman in England to be hanged as a “witch” – was sentenced to death in 1685. In June 1685, Avis Molland – by now widowed – emerges in court records as an informant about a potential revolt, at a time when the Duke of Monmouth was attempting a rebellion against the king. Avis Molland died a free woman eight years later. Worland has spent 18 years unearthing victims’ details, and has successfully campaigned to have memorials to executed “witches” in Colchester and Chelmsford.

I'm now a proud first-generation funeral director and embalmer. It's going to open up several thousands of positions for young funeral directors to step in and make an impact. I'm excited for the next generation because, in my opinion, there has never been a better time to be in the funeral service. To me, the mindset of a funeral director is to lead the family to their new norm.

JUNEAU, Alaska — A court services officer with the Alaska State Troopers died Tuesday after being attacked by a muskox outside his home near Nome, the agency said. Court services officers are law enforcement officers that provide prisoner transport services, courthouse security and court document service, troopers spokesperson Austin McDaniel said. He could not immediately say how many animals were part of the group that Worland was trying to keep away. The Alaska State Troopers, Alaska Wildlife Troopers and state Department of Fish and Game are investigating. Muskoxen are stocky, long-haired animals with slight shoulder humps and horns and can weigh up to 800 pounds, according to the fish and game department.
