The UK Times: "Secret documents from Holy Inquisition revealed"

'Secret documents from the archives of the Holy Inquisition today went on public show for the first time in Rome - though not the instruments of torture used to extract confessions from heretics." - The UK Times
Unfortunately, the material is not nearly as sensationalist as some might hope.

On the contrary:
"... Vatican officials say opening the archives has "exposed some myths" about the Inquisition, showing for example that more women accused of witchcraft died in Protestant than in Catholic countries."
Imagine that.
