I suppose if you ever had to choose a type of execution, a posthumous execution would be the one to choose…..👍

De,
What’s curious is his head was owned by several various people prior to it’s interment

Lainie, because he had the king Charles I executed in 1649 and Charles' son Charles II came to the throne in 1660 and sought revenge (the Engish Civil War 1642 - 1649, Royal restoration 1660).
