Herennius Senecio
Herennius Senecio (d. 93 AD) was among the Stoic opposition〔Gunnar Haaland, "Josephus and the Philosophers of Rome: Does ''Contra Apionem'' Mirror Domitian's Crushing of the 'Stoic Opposition'?" in ''Josephus and Jewish History in Flavian Rome and Beyond'' (Brill, 2005), p. 298; B. Walker, ''The Annals of Tacitus: A Study in the Writing of History'' (University of Manchester Press, 1952, reprinted 1968), p. 199.〕 to the emperor Domitian, under whose rule he was executed.〔Tacitus, ''Agricola'' 2.1; Pliny, ''Epistulae'' 3.11.3; Michael B. Trapp, ''Philosophy in the Roman Empire: Ethics, Politics and Society'' (Ashgate, 2007), p. 228 (online. )〕 He was from Baetica in Roman Spain.〔Haaland, ''Josephus and the Philosophers of Rome'', p. 305.〕 He was the author of a laudatory biography of the Stoic martyr Helvidius Priscus.
In 93 AD, Herennius and Pliny successfully prosecuted a case against Baebius Massa for improprieties during his administration in Baetica. Baebius's property was confiscated in order to make reparations to the provincials. Baebius retaliated by bringing a charge of treason (''maiestas'') against Herennius, accusing him of ''impietas'', but dropped the case when Pliny threatened a counter suit.
Mettius Carus, however, managed to convict Herennius. Although the details of the case are unclear, several factors rendered Herennius vulnerable. Because he had declined to run for any office after he was quaestor, he might be accused of desertion of public duty (''secessio''). He was connected by friendship and possibly blood to the emperor's enemies. In his biography of Helvidius, Herennius was praising an unrelenting critic of Domitian's father. Helvidius's widow Fannia, the daughter of Thrasea Paetus, had given Herennius her late husband's notebooks (''commentarii''); for this she was also prosecuted by Carus and condemned to exile. Another member of this circle who fell victim to Domitian was Arulenus Rusticus.〔Haaland, ''Josephus and the Philosophers of Rome'', p. 305; Steven H. Rutledge, ''Imperial Inquisitions: Prosecutors and Informants from Tiberius to Domitian'' (Routledge, 2001), pp. 130–132.〕
