Le jugement « condamne ladite Charlotte Villecourt à être brûlée vive sur un Bucher, qui sera pour cet effet dressé en la plage de Greve par l'Exécuteur de la Haute Justice, son corps réduit en cendres & les cendres jetées au vent, ladite Charlotte préalablement appliquée à la question ordinaire & extraordinaire pour avoir par sa Bouche la vérité d'aucuns faits résultant du Proces & les noms de ses complices ». Dans « L'oeil du Maître : maîtres et serviteurs de l'époque classique au romantisme », Claude Petitfrère rappelle l'extrème sévérité des jugements rendus contre les domestiques et cite, à l'appui de ce constat, le cas de Charlotte Villecourt, condamnée à mort pour un faux témoignage.
