mezya [45]

Answer:

The testimony of Martha's neighbor, Benjamin Abbot, proved the investigation of Martha's husband and children.

El countered the accusations, called her accusers crazy, maintained her position on her innocence and despite being arrested, refused to admit that she was a witch. After being accused by the Salem teenagers, other people testified against Martha, including her neighbor, Benjamin Abbot, who claimed to have been seriously ill after arguing with Martha.
