[edit] Raped by Lord Darnley???

The (fictionalized) book about Mary Queen of Scot I am reading has a passage where Darnley rapes Rizzio. Does anyone know- is there any fact to this??ELBachh 15:54, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Innaccuracies

For some reason this article claims that Rizzio's murder was organised by Elizabeth when my understanding is that he was killed by Darnley in a fit of jealous rage. Will someone who knows more please correct it? 80.177.170.112 16:09, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Homosexuality?

Leaving aside for a moment the obvious anachronism of the term, can anyone provide a source for the claim that Rizzio was gay??

Ditto - a Google search doesn't turn up any evidence that he might have been gay (or whatever work best describes his "sexual orientation"). -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 21:54, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
