Matthew Hopkins was a dick. Hopkins witch-finding career began in March 1644[a] and lasted until his retirement in 1647. During that period, he and his associates were responsible for more people being hanged for witchcraft than in the previous 100 years,[2][3] and were solely responsible for the increase in witch trials during those years.[4][5][6] He is believed to have been responsible for the deaths of 300 women between the years 1644 and 1646.
