Winston Churchill Times Crimes

A few months after the end of World War II, with the international community outraged at the excesses committed by Germany, trials against war criminals were convened in Nuremberg, the symbolic seat of Nazism. There was a series of twelve trials, but it was the first that was the most prominent. Top military and governmental figures including Goering, Hess, von Ribbentrop, and Doenitz were among those first prosecuted. Later trials followed against doctors, bankers, industrialists and others.
