This bitch was born in 1930, so she would’ve been in her pre-teens or early teens when she got to Stutthof. Funny how the genocidal maniacs that ran these death camps were so incompetent that tens of thousands of kids, toddlers and even babies could somehow survive them for years…

They’re doing it again.

This ritualistic humiliation of some really old people, without literally any accusation other than “you were in the vicinity.”

This is really bad optics…

Breitbart:

The prosecution’s closing arguments will be heard on Monday in the trial of a 93-year-old former Nazi concentration camp guard for complicity in the murder of more than 5,000 people during World War II.

In what could be one of the last such cases of surviving Nazi guards, Bruno Dey stands accused of complicity in the murder of 5,230 people when he worked at the Stutthof camp near what was then Danzig, now Gdansk in Poland.

Dey, who has appeared in court in a wheelchair, denies bearing any guilt for what happened at the camp.

His defence has insisted that he did not join the SS voluntarily before serving at the camp from August 1944 to April 1945, ending up assigned there because a heart condition excluded him from frontline service.

But prosecutors argue that his involvement was crucial to the killings, as his time in the SS coincided with the “Final Solution” order to systematically exterminate Jews through gassing, starvation or denial of medical care.

Dey is standing trial at a juvenile court because he was aged between 17 and 18 at the time.

This whole thing sounds a script from an Adam Sandler movie.

Why hasn’t Adam Sandler made a movie about this anyway?

During his testimony in May, Dey told the court that he wanted to forget his time at the camp.

“I don’t want to keep going over the past,” he told the Hamburg tribunal.

Judge Anna Meier-Goering had asked whether Dey had spoken to his children and grandchildren about the time he stood guard at Stutthof.

“I don’t bear any guilt for what happened back then,” Dey said. “I didn’t contribute anything to it, other than standing guard. But I was forced to do it, it was an order.”

Dey acknowledged last year that he had been aware of the camp’s gas chambers and admitted seeing “emaciated figures, people who had suffered”, but insisted he was not guilty.

The Nazis set up the Stutthof camp in 1939, initially using it to detain Polish political prisoners.

But it ended up holding 110,000 detainees, including many Jews. Some 65,000 people perished in the camp.

The vast majority of those people died of typhus, just like most people who died in these camps did for that matter, and that’s what the vast majority of non-Jewish historians said for decades after the war until it became illegal to do so.

But let’s pretend we’re all idiots and don’t know that.

Dey, who now lives in Hamburg, became a baker after the war.

Married with two daughters, he supplemented his income by working as a truck driver, before later taking on a job in building maintenance.

He came into prosecutors’ sights after a landmark 2011 ruling against former Sobibor camp guard John Demjanjuk on the basis that he was part of the Nazi killing machine.

Since then, Germany has been racing to put on trial surviving SS personnel on those grounds rather than for murders or atrocities directly linked to the individual accused.

Ukrainian-American Demjanjuk was convicted of being an accessory to the murder of nearly 30,000 Jews at the Sobibor death camp. He died while his appeal was pending.

The court ruled that as a guard at the camp, he was automatically implicated in killings carried out there at the time.

I’m a very conspiracy-minded person by nature, and when I look at anything even vaguely political, I automatically think there’s something else behind it that I’m not being told about.

In this case, I kinda wonder if the people doing these prosecutions aren’t secretly pro-Nazi and doing it just to garner sympathy for the Nazis, because it’s very hard for me to imagine any Jew being stupid enough to not understand how bad this mockery of justice looks to most people.

Even Breitbart’s mostly cuckservative comments section overwhelmingly thinks this is dumb, albeit for different reasons than why I think it’s dumb.

But then again, maybe the problem Jews have here is more pathological than cognitive…

Hey, I just realized a good reason to vote for Trump!

If you don’t, everybody who was at that Charlottesville thing is gonna be retroactively accused of murder just for being there!

“Part of the Alt-Right fatty-killing machine”

You think that’s a stretch?

If you do, I think you don’t yet understand what it is that is happening here.

Krauts are literally the most incompetent death campers in the universe

Here’s another man in his 90s who was a soldier in the German military 75 years ago being prosecuted for being a soldier in the German military 75 years ago.

Jews are bloodthirsty animals.

The Guardian:

A former guard at Stutthof concentration camp will go on trial in the northern German city of Hamburg on Thursday, in what could be one of the last criminal cases of an individual charged over the Holocaust.

The 93-year-old man, Bruno Dey, was 17 when he joined the SS-Totenkopfsturmbann (Death’s Head Battalion), which manned the watchtowers at the concentration camp east of what is now the city of Gdańsk, in Poland.

Between August 1944 and April 1945, Dey is accused of having been an accessory to the murder of 5,230 people. The figure includes 5,000 prisoners who fell victim to a typhus epidemic due to being denied access to food, water and medication as well as catastrophic hygiene conditions, 200 people who were gassed with Zyklon B and 30 people executed with a device specially built for killing with a shot in the neck.

The reason they didn’t have food and medication was because the Allies were bombing all the transport lines, so you really should blame them for it.

By stopping prisoners from escaping, prosecutors argue the guards played a crucial role in allowing mass killings to take place at Stutthof, where an estimated 65,000 people perished before 9 May 1945, when the camp was liberated by allied forces.

The accused guard has cooperated with the investigators by allowing himself to be interviewed eight times. A doctor has declared him mentally fit for a trial, but each court session has been scheduled to last no more than two hours.

In one of the interviews, Dey reportedly confessed to having heard screams, and being aware of the nature of killings at the time. “I probably knew that these were Jews who hadn’t committed a crime, that they were only in here because they were Jews,” he said, according to Die Welt newspaper. “And they have a right to live and work freely like every other human being.”

Nonetheless, he reportedly does not believe he is guilty of being an accessory to murder. “What use would it have been if I had left, they would have found someone else?” Die Welt quoted him as saying.

The prosecution disagrees, arguing that especially by late 1944 it would have been possible for him to fight on the eastern front instead of serving as a guard. Dey claims to have been unable to go into battle because of a heart condition.

…

The Hamburg trial has about 20 co-plaintiffs who spent time at Stutthof, of which four are former members of the Armia Krajowa (Home Army), the dominant resistance movement in Poland, and two are women who fought in the Warsaw uprising. Witnesses will fly in from America, Israel and Poland to give testimony in front of the court from the end of October.

Even though none of the witnesses are likely to remember Dey, the trial has a high symbolic value for many of the victims. “This is not a matter of revenge,” said Markus Horstmann, a lawyer representing one of the co-plaintiffs. “A trial like this is for them more about seeing what happened to them declared an injustice in a German court, and about telling their story so it doesn’t get forgotten,” he told the Guardian.

Last time I checked, the judicial system doesn’t exist to make political statements.

Then again, Germany isn’t a normal country, so why would it have any justice?

Germany’s criminal justice system has allowed a number of cases against concentration camp personnel such as that in Hamburg since the 2011 landmark sentencing of John Demjanjuk, a Ukrainian prisoner who became a “foreign helper” to the Nazis after his capture in 1942.

The trial against Demjanjuk ruled that someone could be sentenced for being a cog in the Nazi killing machine even if the prosecution could not link the accused to individual murders.

Since then, the Central Office for the Investigation of National Socialist Crimes, in Ludwigsburg, near Stuttgart, has been sifting through historical records in search of further cases to bring to trial. Dey came on to the radar of the centre’s researchers after they found his name in the archives of the Stutthof camp’s museum.

While prosecutors across Germany are carrying out preliminary investigations into a further 23 similar cases of Nazi crimes, the chances of these ending up in a court are rapidly decreasing with the passage of time, as the remaining suspects are all of extremely old age.

“We are continuously moving closer to the last trial of this kind,” a spokesperson told the Guardian.

Because Dey was 17 at the time of the alleged crimes, he will appear in front of a youth court, with the judge having to balance the severity of the crimes committed with German criminal law for young offenders, which has a maximum sentence of 10 years.

This explains why all those non-Syrian Syrian child refugees are all getting away with rape and murder so easily – because all these people are trying to find nonagenarians to prosecute for being near an area where Jews were supposedly turned into lampshades.
