Their fate definitely would not have been the same today, as the judicial system nowadays is much more refined. They would have been tried, probably found guilty, and sentenced to prison. Both of them, in the play though, get a fair punishment for what they deserve. Macbeth has to see his wife die, which is an emotional moment for him that he deserves for putting Macduff through the same. Then, he has to discover in the middle of a battle that he thinks he cannot lose that the witches' prophecies might not have told him the whole story. Discovering that Macduff is not of woman born and can definitely kill him is a blow to his psyche that shakes and rattles him to the core, leading to his defeat. Being so mentally shaken and then beheaded is a pretty harsh punishment, even considering the crimes he committed. Lady Macbeth is tormented by her guilt and is driven to madness because of what she has done. This madness and death are also punishments that seem to fit the crimes she committed.
