How Did Pharaoh Punish Tomb Robbers?

What actually happened once Egypt caught a tomb robber? This is the real answer: interrogation by beating until a confession matched what investigators already believed, a household stripped of everything the moment guilt was confirmed, and a public execution designed to be witnessed by as many people as possible. But not everyone accused faced the same justice — the mayor implicated in the very same scandal walked away with his job intact while the men who did the actual digging faced the harshest punishment in Egypt's entire legal system.
