BERLIN (AP) – A German court on Tuesday rejected an appeal by a 99-year-old woman who was convicted of being an accessory to more than 10,000 murders for her role as a secretary to the SS commander of the Nazis’ Stutthof concentration camp during World War II.

The Federal Court of Justice upheld the conviction of Irmgard Furchner, who was given a two-year suspended sentence in December 2022 by a state court in Itzehoe in northern Germany.

She was accused of being part of the apparatus that helped the camp near Danzig, now the Polish city of Gdansk, function. She was convicted of being an accessory to murder in 10,505 cases and an accessory to attempted murder in five cases.

She had to have known what was going on, that is not deniable.

As member of the SS prior to ~1944, she was a volunteer.

Any piece of typed paper bearing the commandant's signature was presumably typed by her.

No problem with me.

Germans prosecuting 99 year-olds for ancient crimes.

Americans can’t do that so we’re tearing down statues of people who may have owned slaves.

Trying to atone for past evils while ignoring evils present is Satan’s handiwork.

There are still White southerners in the USA, very old ones, who attended segregated schools. And even some very old Yankees who rode in the front of the bus while on a visit.
