(SFR ARCHIVE) The Nuremberg Trials (Part 4 of 7)

Magenta Pills

In Episode #4 of this Nuremberg trial series, we begin by looking at the curious defense case of SS Intelligence Chief, and Obergruppenfuhrer, Ernst Kaltenbrunner. He had been at the forefront of planning and executing the Holocaust under direct orders from Heinrich Himmler (and was the top-ranking SS man to be seated in the defendant's dock for these trials). Would Kaltenbrunner's guilt be firmly established by his own testimony and witnesses?

We also hear the chilling and disturbing personal testimony from Auschwitz Camp Commandant Hoess as he coldly explains the crimes he perpetrated against humanity in the camps. Including the willful slaughter of women in children in the gas chambers of his camp.

Additionally, this episode gives a great overlay of the defense cases for Foreign Minister Von Ribbentrop, party philosopher Rosenberg, propagandist Julius Streicher, Navymen Karl Donitz and Erich Raedar, General Alfred Jodl, Minister Albert Speer, and Reichminister Arthur Seyss Inquart.
