  1. What is funny is plea bargains were used on a lot of Nazi War Criminals in the 1940s through 1960s. Ever wonder why someone who describes working on a Mobile Gas Truck and participating in the execution of untold numbers of people only gets 4 years in prison? While that evidence is then used to convict another one who denies everything to Life in Prison. It is true. Just read about the Belzec, Sobibor and Treblinka trials, they literally had zero physical evidence and basically bribed SS Guards to confess and give Testimony with their lives. Told they were be convicted guilty regardless and if they denied the charges that was Holocaust Denial which was also a crime. So in short they only defense they had was to admit everything and beg for mercy or claim they did it under duress. Yet their testimonies are used as absolute fact. Even Adolf Eichmann tried the Admit everything, and claim duress defense. Oskar Groening most recently who's been speaking out for a few years prior about his experiences working in a Concentration Camp was put on Trial in early 2015. When he was put on Trial his only possible defense was to say exactly what people wanted him to say going into some dark details he never said over the prior years of talking about the camps , then watered down his activities and again claimed duress. It's the only legal way they can defend themselves in German court.
