Beschrijving
Discusses two cases illustrating the unjust rulings of the Third Reich's 'People's Court', which played a key role in the Nazi Party's eradication of 'enemies of the State'. Father Metzger was executed for his acts of pacifism and Helmuth Moltke was executed for 'thinking' and his association with the Kreisau Circle (linked to Hitler's assassination attempt).
