Juan de la Abadia
Juan de la Abadia was a marrano who engaged in a project to subvert the Inquisition in Aragon; failing in this, he joined in a plot to assassinate the inquisitor Pedro de Arbués, who was wounded on September 15, 1485, and died two days later. De la Abadia was apprehended, and, according to Heinrich Graetz, committed suicide in prison. However, Meyer Kayserling states that his attempt at suicide was unsuccessful, and that he was drawn, quartered, and consigned to the flames.
