Answer:

D. Innocent people were wrongfully accused of witchcraft and put on trial.

Explanation:

During this time period (1692-1693), many innocent people in the town of Salem, in colonial Massachusetts, were wrongfully accused of witchcraft. These people (usually women) were then put on trial and often killed. This was a period of mass hysteria and strong religious sentiments, which contributed to the panic that was created.
