Suffolk Faces Charges

Impeachment of Suffolk

William De La Pole was brought from the Tower of London to Westminster to face parliament and the lords to hear the new charges against him at his impeachment. He heard the accusations and asked for a copy of the charges and some time in which he may formulate a response. This was agreed and he was placed in the Jewel Tower at the Palace of Westminster until then (probably much nicer than the Tower of London).

He was placed in the care of three men, William Mynors, Thomas Staunton and John Stanley
