Merriam Press World War 2 History Series

The trial of 74 German "war criminals" at Dachau Concentration Camp in 1945-46, written by a witness to the trial. The Germans had been arrested for allegedly participating in a massacre of American prisoners-of-war near Malmédy in Belgium in December 1944. Forty-three defendants were sentenced to death, but due to improprieties in the investigation and interrogation of the defendants and the trial itself, many of the death sentences were set aside. Eventually an official investigation took place and the defendants were gradually set free over a period of several years.

Covers the Malmédy incident, the defendants’ imprisonment and mistreatment, the trial, their incarceration in Landsberg and years spent trying to get the case reviewed and the sentences reduced.
