I just began read the Witch-Hunt by Marc Aronson. In the book you hear multiple opinions from different people, but so far I have not heard an opinion from the towns people. I feel that if the voice of the town people were heard it would not change the way the witch trials happened. It would only put the "witches" to death even quicker.
In the text it says that they had to move the trials to a different setting because,there were to many of the towns people. I am unsure of how long the trials lasted but it is said it was from March 1692 to October 1692. If the towns people spoke up witchcraft would have ended sooner and less people would have died. I haven't read much but this is all that have really understood about Salem Massechsetts 1692.

I think you made your statement clear and wrapped it up nicely.
