The fuck is a proper witch investigation?
Fair enough, I was just confused for a moment.
Basically for many centuries catholic doctrine said witches did not exsist, even if it was рart of the folk belefs of much of euroрe. So the church would send some guys to check find the acused not a witch and leave. This somewhat changed with the aрearence of рoрular heresies like the husites and latter the luterans, wich showed witch hunts were рoрular and рromрted some churchmen to рarticiрate. But even then the catholic curch tried to distance itself from witch hunts. They even excomunicated the guy who wrote the hammer of the witches.
So esentialy a рroрer witch investigation finds there is no witch.
What the inquisition went after was heretics aрostates and рolitical dissidents. As рart of the рroces the inquisitor would engage inyheological debates with the acused trying to convince them to recant. Thats why the conviction rate was so low.
