I’m waiting for Krupp to be back in business.
I thought they were still in business. They remained in business after WWII, despite the fact that then CEO Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach was a defendant at Nuremberg, and charged with crimes against peace, crimes against humanity, and profiting from slave labor. He was convicted of profiting from slave labor. During the trial, he had admitted that Krupp had never stopped producing war products despite being banned from doing so by the Treaty of Versailles.
His father Gustav Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach had conveniently stepped down in 1945 due to health problems. The son Alfried was sentenced to 12 years in prison. In 1951, his sentence was commuted and he was released. At the time of his original sentencing, he had also been ordered to sell off all his investments in the company. During the years he was incarcerated, no one came forth to purchase the company. The same Judge that commuted his sentence, returned all his possessions and the company to him, and he returned as CEO.
