William Bedloe Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, revealed nothing of importance. Bedloe wrote a "Narrative and impartial discovery of the horrid Popish Plot" (1679), but all his statements are extremely untrustworthy. Lady Worcester, whose husband was an indirect target of Bedloe's accusations called him "a man whose whole life has been pageantry and villainy and whose word would not have been taken at sixpence". At Oates's trial for perjury, some years after Bedloe's death, Lord Chief Justice Jeffreys, who had condemned innocent men on Bedloe's accusations, called him "infamous Bedloe".
