Yeah, these Bastards disagree with “Church Teaching” so lets just burn their asses at the stake!

Wyclif was never even arrested.

Wycliffe was in poor health and died before he could be arrested. Prior to that, he was under the protection of the King and the English Nobility. The Pope was basically Persona Non Grata in England at the time because of his alliance with France which was then England’s mortal enemy.
So basically the Church didn’t have the power to arrest him. They were biding their time.
Later they were able to exhume his remains and burn them however.
Hus was burned at the stake and later his bones were exhumed and they were also burned again....Nice, Huh?
