Her trial included accusations of lutheranism, erasmism and involvement with the alumbrados.[1] It lasted until December 1534. She was subjected to the foal and touches her, and kept her gagged part of the time of her captivity. She finally was acquitted of the most serious charges, subject to public shame in a church in Guadalajara and fined one hundred ducats, prohibited from keeping contact with her old relations.[4]
