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

Magenta Pills

In this finale of our Nuremberg Trials series, we hear the verdicts and punishments handed down to the Nazi defendants.

Which would be sent to the hangman and for what reasons? Would Goering finally face justice for his crimes? Would Hess be excused for mental health issues? Would Kaltenbrunner pay the price for his SS rank? And would Streicher face the gallows for his writings?

Before we hear the details about the hangings, that were held within the confines of the Palace of Justice itself, we learn of US Army Hangman Woods. He was the chief executioner at Nuremberg and we take a glimpse into his life leading up to that fateful October night in 1946.

Then we conclude with the hangings themselves.

Thank you for joining us on this journey through one of the preeminent political true-crime stories ever occurring.

I am currently working on a mini-series about the overthrow of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi during the Arab Spring of 2011. But who will be revealed to the criminals in that instance? Gaddafi, the Rebels, or the US-led coalition aiding the rebels? All of them? We will untangle these messy knots in our true crime fashion as we search for truth and justice in a corrupt political realm.

See you in March of 2022
