Nazi resistors on trial. Imagine YOU standing there in front of THIS judge.

The trial of some of the resisters featured on Valkyrie.

I was editor on the documentary Valkyrie for the History Channel.

The men had their belts taken away so they would have to hold their pants up in humiliation.

He was taken out and hung by cord as thin as piano wire -- as seen at the end of the movie Valkyrie.

Do you have any info about the name of the judge?

[raproducer]

I believe his name was Roland Freisler.

This was called "The People's Court"

[HotSIzZle12]

Thanks! I just read that he died during an allied bombing raid... justice served.

[CanyonLakeRebel]

Looks like any modern American family court!

[baraxor]

The Bomb Plot trials were filmed for widespread public viewing...ironically, Goebbels convinced Hitler to restrict this as he criticized Freisler's ranting and baiting of the prisoners, fearing that this would make the "traitors" more sympathetic to the German people.

@HotSIzZle12 Yep, that too at a trial for Fabian von Schlabrendorff, a conspirator in the July 20th plot. FVS was to be sentenced that day, and he survived the bombing raid. It was reported Roland Freisler's body was found under debris, with the file of Fabian von Schlabrendorff still clinched in his hands.

@Allanlegacy43 I would have said fuck hitler and fuck you too

[GCarty80]

@HotSIzZle12

Yes, justice by B-17...

[Allanlegacy43]

have made it clear that if Hitler left the tactics to those experts who actually know what military tactics are and not some corporal that Germany would have won the war by now. I would have stated infactially that Hitler is solely responsible for the lost of the war and he is going to self destruct very soon and take all of you cowards who never had the guts to oppose him and all of Germany down with him, and then finish with the words that at least I tried to stop him from destroying Germany!

[Allanlegacy43]

These guys knew they were dead men, they knew they would be hung. If that was me I would have been as loud and as bosterious and expolisive as I could. I would have went into a tirade and I would have solely made the point of Hitlers military and tatical blunders and stupidities that cost Germany the war. I would have brought up Dunkirk, I would have brought up not invading England, I would have parotted the stupidity about engaing in a two front war and the disatorious effects. I would cont.

Brave.

[TheDosaaaa]

Just like Judge Judy lol, she calls hers a peoples court too..

[1stLtDavis]

They deserved it, fucking bastards wanted Germany to be split up be communists...which it was.

And now the Germans are having to bear the brunt of the financial disaster created by big, globalist banks.

@xpat73 I hated that this fkr got killed in the bombing raid and escaped justice..I hope he had a painful death!!!
