A story constructed through various testimonies, including confessions that were tortured out of jews. The belief that during holy feast days, jews wanted to kidnap christian children. Zanesus (commonly known as der schweitzer the swiss) advised andreas to have pedesta search the jews" houses. Searched samuel"s (head of jews) house and found nothing, but several days later they found dead body of simon in ditch near samuel"s house (jews reported body but ignored) Six jews were arrested and brought before the prince-bishop johannes hinderbach. The accusation that jews murdered christians out of religious hatred. 14-15th centuries focused on the cooperation of different seocial groups against the jews. Trent was considered an area where secular and ecclesiastical jurisdictions were combined under a single authority (the prince-bishop) thus minorities were screwed.
