The Simon Wiesenthal Center has received leads that "Dr. Death" Aribert Heim, the center's most wanted Nazi war criminal, is alive and living in Patagonia, Chile. The center's chief Nazi hunter is due to travel there this week.
The hunt for "Dr. Death" Aribert Heim, the Nazi war criminal wanted for murdering hundreds of prisoners in concentration camps during World War II, has intensified after the Simon Wiesenthal's chief Nazi hunter received fresh leads during a visit to South America.
Efraim Zuroff, a Holocaust historian who heads the center's Jerusalem office, told media that he had received information that Heim was in the Patagonia region of southern Chile, where his daughter lives.
"In the last few days we've received information from two different sources, both relating to Chile, which we think have very good potential," said Efraim Zuroff, according to the Reuters news agency.
Heim, who would be 94 if he's still alive, was an Austrian medical doctor in the SS. He is alleged to have murdered hundreds of concentration camp inmates with experiments that included injecting poison into their hearts. He tops the Wiesenthal Center's list of most wanted Nazi war criminals.
Heim decorated his office with human body parts during World War II, even using the skull of a man he decapitated as a paperweight.
Zuroff is currently in South America to promote "Operation Last Chance," the Wiesenthal Center's initiative to obtain information that could lead to the prosecution and punishment of the last surviving Nazi war criminals.

There's no consensus in the internation community that anything should be done about Mugabe or Chavez. It may never develop, but if it should in a couple decades, I presume your arguement is that they should be left alone.
in 1958 Heim apparently felt comfortable enough to buy a 42-unit apartment block in Berlin, listing it in his own name with a home address in Mannheim, according to purchase documents obtained by the AP. He then moved to the nearby resort town of Baden-Baden and opened a gynecological clinic also under his own name, Heister said. In 1961, German authorities were alerted and began an investigation, but when they finally went to arrest him in September 1962, they just missed him he apparently had been tipped off. Heim continued to live off the rents collected from the Berlin apartments until 1979 when the building was confiscated by German authorities.
This man was an inhuman monster who performed unspeakable atrocities on innocent victims, yet the authorities clearly showed no interest in bringing him to justice. Grrrr.
Yes, very little interest.
Germany is currently trying Heinrich Boere, an SS man who killed a number of Dutch civilians, and was tried in absentia, his choice not to show up, and sentenced to death in the late 1940s. Dutch pop, but a German mom, thus a German citizen, and Germany doesn't deport their citizens. Even German war criminals in the post war period. And, well he killed Dutch folk in their country, so no crime in Germany. He lived a free life in Germany, till now.
I don’t think evil personified has an expiration date.
Even if he’s caught moments before his last breath, he’s caught.
I say - hang ‘em.
If you spot this Nazi butcher, don't hesitate.
Perhaps shift their attention to Islamofascist killers, many of whom are still at large.
Because I want to chop him in pieces while he is alive.
“Well there are only so many years to keep up this gig. You would think it would not be wise to tip off your suspect.”
Ah, but they rabbit and are generally easier to catch on the move than if they went to ground.
Plus, imposing the anticipation of being caught is have the fun. “I’m coming to get you . . . “
That makes you a bad, evil person.
Need anyone to hand you the tools?
See, if we can find them, we can tie them up and pour gasoline on them — for the sake of science.
I’ll provide the matches and hot dogs.
“Need anyone to hand you the tools?”
Only if your hands shake.
The full-flavor, not the 97% fat free. It's a special occasion.
Kevorkian is the cheap imitation, this guy’s the real deal.
Eh? Wouldn’t that be a bad thing?
Nah.
You’d need to be clumsy too. “Opps, dropped the saw in that bucket of human crap again.”
I’d leave him alive, limbless, and infected, so it would lingering and painful.
Maybe chemo just so he thows up and has nasea. Or a good case of cholera. That’s actually worse than almost anything.
All this “Let God Take Care of Him” talk I see here sometimes is just BS.
Sorry.
Some folks need killing. God had no problem with that in the Old Covenant.
My only issue is that some Nazi Hunters tend to be anti-American leftists.
Now we need some Commie hunters to go after the masters of the Gulags and torture prisons from all the old Communist regimes.
I hear even now the Irish are considering “truth commissions” ala South Africa to name murderers from both sides in Ulster.
What a world.
I’m glad they found him, but I’m a little surprised they’ve come this close to locating this guy.
I love Texas. If I moved to the USA, I would live in Texas.
