On March 15 , 44 BC , the day marked for the Dictator ’s assassination , Trebonius was the person who kept Mark Antony outside the Senate while Caesar was being stabbed . Having been nominated by Caesar for the post of proconsul for Asia , he immediately left for the province during 44 BC . While there , he raised money and troops for Brutus and Cassius . He also helped Cassius on his way to Syria later in the year . Later , he attempted to fast-track Publius Cornelius Dolabella in his passage through Asia by providing whatever supplies he needed , as well as refusing to open cities for Dolabella . However , Dolabella took Smyrna in Asia Minor , where he captured Trebonius in the process . In January 43 BC , Dolabella put Trebonius on trial for treason before proceeding to torture him and then behead him
