Note 75 — I. GENERAL SLAVE LABOR PROGRAM IN GERMANY

Reading edition

When the prosecution introduced this document in evidence, the following colloquy ensued (Tr. p. 49):

Judge Speight: Do you establish a chain between all of these documents which you read and the defendant?

Mr. Denney: If your Honor please, the prosecution, in presenting these documents, has in mind to give an over-all picture of the way slave labor was treated in Germany, going back to the early days showing that this defendant knew because of attendance at the May 1939, conference that slave labor was going to be employed. Then as Air Ordnance Master General, later as Chief of the Jaegerstab, and later as a member of the Central Planning Board, we will connect him with enterprises involving slave labor.

Judge Speight: Very well.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
