SandWITCHES

In the Jean Bodin passage the twelfth crime of witches is killing with poisons or spells that is distinct from other than violence. I feel that it could be confusing with people getting sick for many other reasons, even though I know that hygiene was not as bad as I originally thought before this class, people still get sick at pretty frequent rates from the food they consume. Many cooks and bakers should be at fault here for food bourne illnesses getting people sick and thinking that an enemy of them is a witch that poisons them because they were around them when they felt sick or died from the food. But also, I am surprised to not hear any stories of bakers getting accused of being a witch for killing some people, since they got sick over the food they consumed from their place of business and though that they did it on purpose. Now thinking about it bakers might've been able to kill people easily since there was no way of knowing they did it.
