What are the charges against martha carrier? what is the evidence against her?

She was charged for using witchcraft, so she was hanged. The thing is, they were just accused of bringing smallpox to Andover, but this disease killed two of her children, leaving the two other children and the husband both fine. Seems suspicious to the authorities. The evidence against her was people she knew, like neighbors. They accused her of curses and "powers" that she suddenly had. Though Martha pled not guilty, she was still hung.

to kill a mockingbird basically is about a lawyer who goes against everything in a racist society like at the time of this novel, to defend a black man accused of sexual abuse. in the bible there are cases like that of joseph, who was accused by the woman of potifar, for a crime similar to that of tim robbinson, of that novel (genesis 39: 1-20). at this point we see that god also provides the escape to joseph, who was accused unjustly, but in his time, and through his attitude, his faith was not shaken, and god provided the solution. the perspective of god also written in the bible and not pay evil with evil. (ephesians 4: 32, 1 thessalonians 5: 15, 1 peter 3: 9). atticus, the lawyer, demonstrated during this lee novel, empathy, love of neighbor, understood the situation of this accused man. he went against everything in that society, and stood in favor of that man, for the injustice committed. this shows the empathy, the love taught by christ, in some passages that speak of love and justice in the sermon of the beatitudes (especially verses 6 and 7 of matthew 5).
