On this episode of Dirty History, we will discuss why executioners were shunned and feared by middle ages society, and how they coped with it. Also, there is the obligatory recounting of brutal torture executions, a few asides on torture, how to verify death, the various dirty jobs an executioner had to perform, and a rumination on mob violence. This episode does get a touch graphic, but that is to be expected because this is Dirty History.
