Major Crimes and True Crime

August Landmesser, became a member of the Nazi Party in 1931 with the hope of improving his employment prospects during a time of economic hardship. Nonetheless, in 1934, Landmesser's life took an unexpected turn when he fell in love with a Jewish woman named Irma Eckler. The couple got engaged a year later, but were unable to marry because marriage between Jews and non-Jews was forbidden. Despite this obstacle, he married Eckler, and they had their first daughter in 1935. Two years later, Landmesser, his wife and daughter attempted to flee Germany for Denmark but were apprehended by authorities. Landmesser was charged with “dishonoring the race” under Nazi racial law but was later let go and was just ordered to end his relationship with Eckler with the warning that a repeat offense would result in a multi-year prison sentence. However, he refused to abandon his wife and was eventually arrested again in 1938. This time he was sentenced to hard labor for 3 years at a concentration c...

First there was Franceska Mann in 1943. She was a beautiful dancer, originally from Poland. When she was herded to the room near the gas chambers, one of the cruel guards named Schillinger instructed her to remove her clothes. She didn't just give up. She influenced him with her dancing movements and hit him with her shoe and grabbed his own pistol to shoot him. He died from those wounds.

This was a group effort done by such women as Roza Robota and her friends who worked in the munitions factory. These brave girls smuggled tiny bits of gunpowder ever single day inside their clothes. They gave it to the men that worked in the c...

The Nazi gas chambers have a deep tragic history that should be noticed. People who died there did not die instantly and painlessly, it was a long, horrible, painful experience of all the participants. Nazi had two methods that were quite brutal. They deployed Zyklon B in Auschwitz, which was a gas consisting of cyanide that caused respiratory poisoning to the body by preventing oxygen intake into the cells. The victims felt dizzy, nauseated, and trembling, they could not breath easily. The torture took about five to twenty minutes. They sprayed carbon-monoxide-laden engine exhaust at Treblinka. This gas progressively denuded the bloodstream of oxygen and it brought on an agonizing and slow suffocation which took approximately thirty minutes or more and the victims remained awake during the whole duration. The wickedness started as early as before the gas was emitted. The false claims made victims to be absorbed and rounded up into rooms. When the poison leaked in there was panic at on...
