Wallace was executed by Edward I. He was condemned as a traitor, and thus given the normal English punishment meted out to traitors: being hanged, drawn, and quartered. However, unlike most traitors, he was dragged through the streets for hours tied to horses' tails. Hanging, drawing and quartering means being hung with an agonizingly slow rope then the executioner rips out the still-beating heart. He was also castrated at the point of death.

Sir William Wallace ( died 23 August 1305) was a Scottish knight and landowner who became one of the main leaders during the Wars of Scottish Independence.

Along with Andrew Moray, Wallace defeated an English army at the Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297, and was Guardian of Scotland, serving until his defeat at the Battle of Falkirk. In 1305, Wallace was captured in Robroyston near Glasgow and handed over to King Edward I of England, who had him hanged, drawn, and quartered for high treason.

William Wallace was killed because he defied the king of England and wanted Scotland to be its own kingdom. Slaughtering all the king's men didn't help matters.
