Roland Freisler - Hitler's Blood Judge - Part 5

Roland Freisler, president of the Nazi's People Court (Volksgerichtshof), was Hitler's blood judge. Approximately 90% of all proceedings at the Volksgerichtshof ended with sentences of death or life imprisonment, the sentences frequently having been determined before the trial. Between 1942 and 1945 more than 5,000 death sentences were handed out, and of these, 2,600 through the court's First Senate, which Freisler headed. Thus, Freisler alone was responsible, in his three years on the court, for as many death sentences as all other senate sessions of the court together in the entire time the court existed, between 1934 and 1945.

Freisler was particularly known for humiliating defendants and shouting loudly at them. A number of the trials for defendants in the July 20 Plot before the People's Court were filmed and recorded. In the 1944 trial against Ulrich Wilhelm Graf Schwerin von Schwanenfeld, for example, Freisler screamed so loudly, the technicians who were filming the proceeding had major problems making the defendants' words audible. Count Schwerin, like many other defendants in the plot, was sentenced to death by hanging. Among this and other show trials, Freisler headed the 1943 proceedings against the members of the "White Rose" resistance group, and ordered many of its members to be executed by guillotine.

what a joy to have seen this dirty piece of swine shit sentenced to death by a Jewish military judge and personaly hanged by Sgt Allen Schwartz of San Antonio, Texas. Hanged with his false teeth out and his trousers off.

Unlike his victims, he burns in hell.

This guy almost sounds as bad as Judge Judy.

West Germany had no problem giving Hitler's judges lucrative appointments.

Some things never change.

@RonSkem well, he is missed by me, you ignorant bastard.

Some of the traitors were just hopelessly stupid, nothing more, rather innocent really.

But some were almost certainly opposed to the Führer due to their love of globalism as well as the international 'money changers' (jews and others)...the big mega banks that back communist movements and rob every one of us blind.

WW2 was Hitler vs. Globalism - the disgusting piece of shit that it is.

When Freisler's corpse was delivered to a local hospital for autopsy, a nurse glanced at it and flippantly remarked "It is a judgment from God." No one present said anything to her.

Nothing like a raving lunatic in power. "Raving Roland" was very intelligent, but totally mad.

They were man enough to go against the man called hitler.

R.I.P Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg † 21. Juli 1944, he was a hero!

@KilonBerlin An interesting theory. Of course, we can never know, but Freisler was such an arrogant man that perhaps he did not want to be taken alive after all.
