Windsor 2,233 Posted April 14, 2009 John Demjanjuk has been removed from his home and is on his way to Germany to stand trial. One report said the ailing 89-year old was removed on a stretcher http://jta.org/news/article/2009/04/14/100...for-deportation I have watched the video on the BBC. It looked like he was carried out in a wheelchair. He didn't look like a well man - doesn't look like he is faking it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tuber Mirum 125 Posted May 14, 2009 Finally deported to Germany and is probably developing dirty rotten swine flu as we speak. I heard he was transported to a prison in Munich. With his age and health he won't survive long in a cell. Adolf Hitler was in prison in Munich. I wonder if it's the same one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomb raider 9 Posted May 16, 2009 Finally deported to Germany and is probably developing dirty rotten swine flu as we speak. I heard he was transported to a prison in Munich. With his age and health he won't survive long in a cell. Adolf Hitler was in prison in Munich. I wonder if it's the same one? Yes, it is. Hitler served time in Sadelheim Prison in 1922. I'm sure Demjanjuk feels honoured to follow in his footsteps! (For I'm sure the big fraud still can walk, he's just been doing a Biggsy or a Pinochet to delay his extradition.) In his defence, I'd like to state that the only reason that he's considered such a prominent war criminal is the fact that he's one of the last to be still alive. Even if he was a campguard in Sobibor, that would not make him a very large fish (especially not since he was acquitted of being Ivan the Terrible). I would not have him babysitting over my children, but the media are portraiting the man as the monster who's been responsible for the death of tens of thousands in Sobibor, which is not only very unlikely, but also a bit unfair. It's the irony of surviving the vast majority of your generation, I suppose. It's like the WW I veterans: the death of the last one will be generating massive media attention and a state funeral, but it's highly probable that this 115-year old "hero" will turn out to have been a non-combattant runaway-boy who hid himself on a transportship in the last days of the war whose only feat was to have been alive at the time.

ghostofchat7 1 Posted May 25, 2009 Yeah, he was found innocent in the past, when he was suspected of being Ivan the Terrible. He has lived a good life, and this last part is just childish of the New World Order bullies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So give or take a couple of months, he should be dead by the end of 2010... Look, its July now and if he does only 3 more months than this talked-up "oh he's ill - leave him alone" estimate then he misses 2010. Now in my book that's more like a 40/60 call for next year. I'll be having another look in December for sure but for now he has to be much better value in 2011. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tuber Mirum 125 Posted November 30, 2009 Trial begins. Looks like he's pretending to be dead, which is always a fine defence. Apparently the whole thing is disgacefully badly organised with about twice as many permits given to the press than there is room for in the courtroom. They also decided not to have the trial in a bigger room for some reason. A Jewish commentator I heard on the radio said Demjanjuk's unlikely to get found guilty unless he can be proven to have committed murder over and above the call of duty. "Like having torn the head off a baby for fun" is how he put it I think. Roughly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rotten Ali 600 Posted December 2, 2009 Page last updated at 11:02 GMT, Wednesday, 2 December 2009 Trial of Nazi suspect Demjanjuk delayed due to illness Doctors said Demjanjuk had a fever caused by an unidentified infection. The trial in Munich of alleged Nazi guard John Demjanjuk has been adjourned after the 89-year-old was taken sick. The retired Ohio carworker had a fever that had continued to rise after medication, said the court, adding that his trial would resume on 21 December. Mr Demjanjuk denies helping to murder 27,900 Jews at the Sobibor death camp. His lawyer has called for the trial to be abandoned on grounds of poor health. Holocaust survivors have said Mr Demjanjuk is playing up his illness. Prosecutors say the defendant volunteered to join the Nazis and shared their racist ideology. The Ukraine-born accused maintains that he was a Soviet soldier who was captured by the Germans, and therefore spent most of the war in prison camps. The trial is expected to last until May and, if found guilty, Mr Demjanjuk could be sentenced to 15 years in jail. The court said Mr Demjanjuk had been examined by doctors in a prison hospital two hours before Wednesday's session was due to start, and found to have a fever caused by an unidentified infection. "This chamber has determined not to proceed because it is not that the defendant does not want to come, but that he cannot come," said Presiding Judge Ralph Alt. Wednesday's hearing was to have featured testimony from 40 relatives of victims of Sobibor - a camp in Nazi-occupied Poland. A lawyer for some of the group, who are co-plaintiffs under German law, said they were "slightly frustrated" by the decision to postpone proceedings Having been deported to Germany from the US in May, Mr Demjanjuk appeared weak during the first two days of his trial, lying in a wheelchair, covered in a blanket with his eyes closed. Doctors had asked that daily hearings be limited to two 90-minute sessions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted January 1, 2010 Demjanjuk deserves to be left in peace for whatever time he has left. I remember when he was put on trial in Isriel and was set free. Now it just seems like Germany or Europe or whatever is just looking for a scapegoat. Obviously a sick old man is all they can handle. Besides, he knows the truth about what he did or didn't do. That was over 60 years ago. Let it go. Better yet, 60 years from now, how about some of the armed forces we have in Iraq and Afganistan be put on trial by those respective countries, and don't forget Vietnam, in 10 years or so let's let them take a few surviving 'nam vets and put them on trial for following orders. Oh yeah, before that, Korea needs a Korean war vet, even though it was just a "police action" not a war. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
