Daily Roman Facts:

A man named Clodius snuck nto a female only religious rite with the intention of seducing Caesar’s wife, Pompeia. This led to Clodius’s arrest and trial for sacrilege. Ceasar gave no evidence at the trial and Clodius was acquitted. Nevertheless, Caesar divorced Pompeia. When people questioned what this might have had to do with the trial of Clodius, Caesar said, "My wife ought not even be under suspicion". It should be noted Ceaser was known all his life as a flirt and adulterer. Hypocrisy!
