In The Crucible, anyone who was brought to trial was expected to plead guilty and give the names of other witches. If they did, they were allowed to live. This led to many false accusations.
During the 1950s McCarthy Trials, the accused were assumed guilty, put on trial, and expected to give the names of other communists in America. Failure to do so led to imprisonment, fines, and other sentences which ruined careers and lives.
