Josef Kramer was hung, he was a commander in both Auschwitz-Birkenau and later on, Berger-Bielsen, called the Beast of Bielsen and responsible for thousands of deaths.
He was hung in Germany by a British hangman, Albert Pierrepoint. Unbelievably, Pierrepoint’s father and uncle were hangmen too. You can read about him here:
Albert Pierrepoint still was the hangman for 435-600 persons per the wikipedia article.
We can only hope we never go through these things again. Man’s inhumanity to man.
Just something to reflect on.
Please, serious and courteous responses only.
