I stammered something about living much further away than the other kids, but Shira traitorously pointed out that even though it was a long walk, there was almost no traffic, and so with a broken heart, I had to agree that there was no reason Lev couldn't go to school by himself the next morning.

Stafford was less than forthcoming in his reports to London when giving details of preparations for the Spanish Armada in 1588, either deliberately or because of over-reliance on Mendoza. There is only circumstantial evidence that Stafford acted traitorously, although the weight of evidence against him has been described as "substantial".

'A Description of the Province of New Albion' . 1648.

The only way to prove sexuality was to have open mistresses, and so abstinence or not condemning the sin led to imagined guilt. Lanval, by saying that he did not want to betray the king, implied that the queen was behaving traitorously. By declaring him a homosexual, Guinevere reflected that charge back on him because everyone was endangered by that sin, according to common belief. Lanval's economic situation at the beginning of the Lai also has basis in history.

The Ballad Plot upon Plot focused on the many "pathetic" attempts of the Whigs to take down the Tory party. > "Some of your Machiavelian crew From heavy roof of Paul Most traitorously > stole every screw, To make that fabric fall; And so to catch Her Majesty, > And all her friends beguile." (Plot Upon Plot, Jonathan Swift) By the nineteenth century, the Screw Plot was regarded as a hoax, simply an inefficient building project blown out of proportion by on-edge Tory Party members. Many recognized figures, such as Sir Walter Scott merely dismiss in- depth discussion in their works focusing on the time during Anne's reign.

In 1485, when news arrived that Henry Tudor had landed in Wales he was ordered to escort Lords Hungerford and Bourchier to Leicester but en route they escaped. When Richard III marched against the invader, Brackenbury hurried himself to reach the King and arrived two days before the Battle of Bosworth Field (22 August 1485), in which – according to Molinet and Lindsay – he had joint command of Richard's vanguard; he took part in the final charge on Henry and was killed by Sir Walter Hungerford of Farleigh fighting beside Richard III. On 7 November 1485, Brackenbury was posthumously attainted by Henry VII. In a document antedating Henry Tudor's rule, Brackenbury was charged with having "assembled to them at Leicester ... a great host, traitorously intending, imagining and conspiring the destruction of the king's royal person, our sovereign liege lord".

He next declared what plots had been contrived of late, and how miraculously the merciful providence of God, by the discovery thereof, beyond all human policy, had preserved her Majesty, the destruction of whose sacred person was most traitorously imagined, and designed to be compassed.

In 1502 Henry VII of England was chosen Protector of the Hospitallers, but he did not provide them the men and money (for their defence of Rhodes against Suleyman the Magnificent) that he had promised. After the island finally fell the Order's Grand Master, L'Isle Adam, was received by Henry's son Henry VIII. At his request, Henry confirmed the privileges of the knights, though he later dissolved Clerkenwell and the rest of the order as part of his wider Dissolution since they "maliciously and traitorously upheld the 'Bishop of Rome' to be Supreme Head of Christ's Church" and thus intended to subvert "the good and godly laws and statues of this realm." The king granted the last prior, William Weston, and the order's other officers small annuities, and so they did not oppose their house's dissolution, and most of the Knights retired to their stronghold of Malta, though three who did not were executed by Henry as traitors (one hung and quartered, the others beheaded).

Charles (in the dock with his back to the viewer) facing the High Court of Justice, 1649 Charles was accused of treason against England by using his power to pursue his personal interest rather than the good of the country. The charge stated that he, "for accomplishment of such his designs, and for the protecting of himself and his adherents in his and their wicked practices, to the same ends hath traitorously and maliciously levied war against the present Parliament, and the people therein represented", and that the "wicked designs, wars, and evil practices of him, the said Charles Stuart, have been, and are carried on for the advancement and upholding of a personal interest of will, power, and pretended prerogative to himself and his family, against the public interest, common right, liberty, justice, and peace of the people of this nation." Presaging the modern concept of command responsibility, the indictment held him "guilty of all the treasons, murders, rapines, burnings, spoils, desolations, damages and mischiefs to this nation, acted and committed in the said wars, or occasioned thereby."; ; .

In July 1745 two traders, James Dunning [one of the traders that had been banned in 1734] and Peter Tostee appeared in Philadelphia claiming that they had been robbed on 18 April: > ... as they were returning up the Allegheny River in canoes, from a trading > trip, with a considerable quantity of furs and skins, Peter Chartier, late > an Indian Trader, with about 400 Shawnese Indians, armed with guns, pistols > and cutlasses, suddenly took them prisoners, having, as he said, a captain's > commission from the King of France; and plundered them of all their effects > to the value of sixteen hundred pounds. The Pennsylvania provincial council issued an indictment of "Peter Chartier of Lancaster County ... Labourer [who], being moved and seduced by the instigation of the Devil ... falsely, traitorously, unlawfully and treasonably did compass, imagine and intend open war, insurrection and rebellion against our said Lord the King." Chartier's landholdings in Pennsylvania, totaling some 600 acres, were seized and turned over to Thomas Lawrence, a business partner of Edward Shippen, III. Chartier led his Shawnee band to Lower Shawneetown on the Ohio River where they took refuge for a few weeks.

According to the popular anti-Caucasian version, during Stalin's reign, the majority of ex-Empire had been occupied by a power- seeking foreign person who didn't represent both the Slavic ethnicity and, to a certain degree, even Russian language and culture, while traitorously benefiting from the anti-nationalist ideology of Marxism. However, Aleksandrov is better known in the West for his early work with Sergei Eisenstein. In Russia, Grigori Aleksandrov's pre-war movies have been credited for "helping to win the war", the Soviet Union's success against Nazis in the World War II. For the same reason, his movies are still controversial in modern Russia, considering the cost of irreparable casualties and subsequent consequences leaving a room for a theory about Russians benefiting more from a Hypothetical Axis victory in World War II. By submission to Hitler, the USSR could have saved its non-Jewish population and approximately 20 millions of the Soviet people and, in the 1990s, the Russian cross in demography, after the country's ideological turn to the opposite 'righteous' direction, would not occur. According to a poll, only 13 percent of Europeans believe USSR had played a key role in the liberation of Europe from Nazism.
