Richard Whiting got his death orders from Tomas Cromwell and Henry V111 king of england-rein;1509-1547...) and got tortured then hung drawn and quartered, his head went onto his abbeys gate and the other 3 parts of him went to Bath, Ilchester and Bridgewater...
This is not actually known for sure but it could be because Henry VIII had asked the Pope for a divorce from Catherine of Aragon which the Pope refused enraging Henry. In 1534 Henry made himself head of the church of England and made it law that if anyone obeyed the Pope rather than the king it was an act of treason and punishable by death. In 1539 Abbot Whiting was asked to attend parliament but he did not show, three of Oliver Cromwells inspectors went to the abbey where they found gold/silver/jewels etc and took them all, they also found Whiting along with a letter objecting to the kings divorce. Richard Whiting was put on trial in Wells. The jury was chosen by Cromwell. They found Whiting guilty of robbery and he was sentenced to death.
Richard whiting was hung until nearlyunconscious, then he was attached by his head to a wild horse and was dragged all over the town. Then his was strapped down to a wooden table and cut from the top of his neck all the way down to the middle of his stomach and his insides were ripped out and threw on to a wood burning fire, by this time he was still alive. And finally his legs and arms were attached to four different horses and ran in different directions causing Richard whiting to be pulled into four. This is how Richard Whiting died.
