Whatever Demjanjuk did or did not do, the Department of Justice railroaded him. They used evidence they knew was tainted, suppressed exculpatory evidence, and thus practised what the court of appeals eventually held was fraud on the court. Traficant opposed that railroading. Are you saying he was wrong to do so, because of something else Demjanjuk may have done (and that, true or not, was inconsistent with the charges DOJ was prosecuting him for)?

Demjanjuk was a Nazi camp guard. The DOJ didn't prosecute him for anything. They kicked him out of the country, and the Israeli Supreme Court cleared him of being a guard in the camp he was accused of being in.

We later find out that he was a camp guard in another camp.Nazi guards are Nazi guards.

What is surprising about the Demjanjuk case is that the suposed SS identity card of Demjanjuk showed him wearing a Russian army uniform. Therefore an obvious counterfeit. I'm surprised this wasn't caught from the get-go.
