I cannot help but wonder if they simply hounded this man, clearly a victim of the war like so many, for the last 35 years of his life. Current eyewitness testimony is unreliable enough. 40 year old memories far less so. |

HOLY CARP!!!

In the Munich trial in 2009, it was proven beyond reasonable doubt that he was involved in the killing of about 28,000 jews at Sobibor. This was not (only) based on unreliable eye witness accounts but much more on documents from that time, including his S.S. identity card. |

How exactly does one link someone to a 65 year old ID card? I wonder what documents from that time could conclusively link this guy to that identity. Not saying he wasn't a bad guy, just that the ties I have seen are tenuous. |
