" In 1536, England’s King Henry VIII accused his second wife Anne Boleyn, who had been crowned queen in 1533, of charges including adultery, incest and conspiracy against the king. At her trial, she was found guilty, and........she was beheaded by a French swordsman, rather than the standard axe-wielding executioner"
Seems it was a setup to allow the king to marry again.
