Some of the most bloodthirsty pirates in the world were brought to
justice and held over for trial in Scotland, England and the United
States . These trials detail their dastardly deeds with startling
testimony of those who were there and lived to be able to testify
in person. What happened to the Jane of Gibraltar? Learn how
pirates repainted a ship at sea, killed the captain and cook and
set a fire in the hold with the rest of the crew to suffocate, all
for the purpose of taking over the ship and a valuable cargo of
silver dollars and gold. Pirates plundered other ships on the high
seas while on the brig Crawford a cunning act of piracy was
perpetrated by a veteran pirate leader. He slit his own throat to
escape justice while three Spaniards he recruited stood trial with
the esteemed Chief Justice John Marshall presiding over the federal
court in Richmond, Virginia in 1827, a rare trial. Follow the
action in a blow-by blow description of the murder and mayhem right
into the courtroom. Over 50,000 people attended one execution of
pirates in England making one wonder if anyone was fortunate enough
to have the fish and chips concession that day There are no magic
scenes out of sparkling Caribbean waters with Captain Jack Sparrow
dueling with a devil, but the genuine evil related in these
authentic pirate trials will certainly make your timbers shiver
