THE PRACTICE OF SENTENCES
The heaviest sentence possible in criminal cases, to be burnt at the stake, was dealt out 21 times. In all probability these persons, 20 males and 1 woman, were burnt alive. Three times the sources mention that the culprits tried to escape from the fire, the ropes having burnt through before they lost consciousness. One of them shouted repeatedly from the flames: See my innocence!
A source from the 18th century tells that as much scrubwood as 20 horses could carry was necessary to burn a person at Þingvellir. A clergyman in the Westfjords that got a father and son burnt in 1656 mentions that all the firewood was taken from the home of the convicts. In all pطعي ability driftwood was used to burn the three convicts in Trékyllisvik Strandir in 1654.

On Tuesday, 9 December 2025, at 09:30 (The Hague local time), Trial Chamber I of the International Criminal Court (ICC) delivered its sentencing judgment in the case of The Prosecutor v. Ali Muhammad Ali Abd-Al-Rahman (‘Ali Kushayb’) during a public hearing in Courtroom I at the seat of the Court.
24 year-old Charly Pitman, of Brislington, Bristol, was found guilty of riot following a trial at Bristol Crown Court in April. On 7th July 2022 she was sentenced to three years in prison.
During her trial jurors heard how she positioned herself at the front of the crowd challenging police officers as they attempted to separate them from the neighbourhood police station.
They were shown footage of her acting aggressively towards the officers, striking their shields and helmets, and were told her actions caused them and others to fear for their safety.
Judge Julian Lambert said Pitman made a conscious decision not to leave the riot and encouraged others to attack police officers. He added jurors decided quickly there was ‘no basis for self-defence’, as Pitman had claimed during the trial.
Including Pitman, those jailed for offences committed during the riot have been imprisoned for a combined total of 74 years and nine months.
Western Jackdaw (Coloeus monedula) profile, highlighting the distinctive silvery-grey nape and striking pale iris. These social corvids possess remarkable intelligence, and researchers have discovered that their bright white eyes serve an important communication function beyond sight. Unlike most dark-eyed crows, jackdaws are cavity nesters. Because they face intense competition for limited nesting sites, they use their conspicuous pale gaze as a warning signal to deter rivals from approaching their territory.

Proclamation has, as its backdrop, the courthouse in which James Creed Meredith presided when he was a Circuit Court Judge. Fourteen figures stand in a megalithic circle, at the centre of which is a plaque containing a copy of the Proclamation of Independence, engraved in bronze. Each figure has at its base a small plaque, engraved with the name and the British military tribunal’s verdict and sentence of death.
The figures are perforated with bullet holes.
Since the original commission was for the seven signatories of the Proclamation, Gillespie has donated the other seven martyrs to the site himself.
