Lucius Pedanius Secundus (d. A.D.61, Rome) was a Roman politician in the 1st century AD under the Emperor Claudius. He was Consul from March to July 43. In the year 56, he was appointed Praefectus urbi. The details of his tenure are not readily known, only that he was murdered in the year 61 by one of his slaves. The Senate, in particular Gaius Cassius Longinus,[1] then demanded execution of all of his 400 household slaves in accordance with Roman law. The people demanded the release of the innocent, but Nero finally bent to the will of the Senate.
