Herta Oberhauser, defendent at the Nuremberg War Crimes Doctor's Trial, is cross-examined by prosecuting attorney in Nuremberg on April 8, 1947. Witness is asked if she gave injections to patients to relieve their pain or to kill them. She received awards for her work with the sulphanilamide experiments.

Oberhauser was a physician at the Ravensbrück concentration camp from 1940 until 1943. She worked there under Dr. Karl Gebhardt's supervision participating in gruesome medical experiments (sulfanilamide as well as bone, muscle, and nerve regeneration and bone transplantation) conducted on 86 women, 74 of whom were Polish political prisoners in the camp.

Oberhauser killed healthy children with oil and evipan injections, then removed their limbs and vital organs. The time from the injection to death was between three and five minutes, with the person being fully conscious until the last moment. She performed some of the most gruesome and painful medical experiments, focusing on deliberately inflicting wounds on the subjects. In order to simulate the combat wounds of German soldiers fighting in the war, Herta Oberhauser rubbed foreign objects, such as wood, rusty nails, slivers of glass, dirt, or sawdust into the wounds.

Herta Oberhauser was the only female defendant in the Nuremberg Medical Trial, where she was sentenced to 20 years in jail. She was released in April 1952 for good behavior and became a family doctor at Stocksee in Germany. She lost her position in 1956, after a Ravensbrück survivor recognized her, and her license to practice medicine was revoked in 1958.

    If you knew all the facts about her, you wouldn't simply call her names.

    She went to Ravensbrück not because she wanted to, but because the job of camp doctor paid best. Her father Anton had fallen ill, and miss Oberheuser had to help her parents out financially.

    There are lots of lies about her on the internet. On several sites it is said she had killed children. Utter lies!

    Multiple people testified agaist her in 45-46, but no-one mentioned such a thing!

  • Bullshit fuck america!!!!!

  • hopefully that everything she did to hurt people will be done to her a million times over in hell. i dont have a drop of mercy for such people like her. i hope she experience unlimited suffering for what that she has done.

  • @JASONANDTRACI "you don't think the sick elite who control America do experiments on humans"

    I fully agree with you.. but you really should look up unit 731.. Much worst that what the Germans did.

    "in fact, many German scientists were flown here to continue their work" -- you do realise that not all german scientist were nazis right??

  • @badpanda84 What are you talking about, you don't think the sick elite who control America do experiments on humans, in fact, many German scientists were flown here to continue their work. IBM created the convict numbering system for concentration camps along with numerous American corporations/banks, including Prescott Bush, funded the German machine. WAKE UP the psycho elites are here in America resurrecting the New World Order it is here now, RESISTANCE is VICTORY. WAKE UP PEOPLE

  • The whole "Nuremburg" fiasco were show-trials, misleading people to illustrate that bad people shall be punished etc. It was all bias, illegaly conducted, and if the same was to happen today, the accused would be sueing the many governmental bodies involved.

    It was just 1940's discipline, at it's worst.

    That's why all the scum on this earth today can cause all this bedlam we live through now, because those allowed this, (Nuremburg) to be.

  • boooo, this is shit

  • sviňa hnusná

  • @LOLMAN22 just wait until you read about what the Japanese did. Look up unit 731 on youtube ( warning may be very graphic).. that was about 100 times worst .

    the worst part is that the US let the leaders of unit 731 walk free in exchange for the data the Japanese collected from human experimentions.
