“Was a long time personal aide of Adolf Hitler’s.” In 1941, he left to Scotland in hopes of making peace between Germany and Britain. He was arrested by the British and was imprisoned. Was sentenced to life in prison. Committed suicide in his prison cell at age 93!

“The Palace of Justice Courthouse was the only undamaged facility that was able to accommodate a long event.” It contained over 20 courtrooms and more than 1,200 prison cells.

Since the defendants had the right to a fair trial, the judges decided to translate the hearings into a language that was understood by all of them. They used a system called “Filene Finlay” to read out the hearings in different languages at the same time. Each person in the courtroom had a set of headphones and they could listen to whichever language by changing the channel. The languages that they were read in were English, Russian, German, and French.
