Judgment
State of Israel v.
Adolf Eichmann
[Biographical Details]
Index Page
[The Complete
Records of the District Court in Jerusalem sessions are available
from the Nizkor Site]
Adolf Eichmann was in charge of section IV B4 of the
Gestapo, charged with Jewish affairs and emigration. In this capacity he
oversaw and was responsible for the administrative details and management
of the final destruction of the Jewish people of Nazi occupied Europe.
After the war, although not immediately, he escaped to Argentina. In 1960
he was captured by Israeli Mossad agents in Buenos Aires and smuggled out
of the country to Israel. In 1961 he was tried in the District Court in
Jerusalem for crimes against the Jewish people, crimes against humanity
and war crimes. He was found guilty, sentenced to death, and after the
failure of his appeal, in May 1962, executed.
The Judgment of the District Court summarizes all phases
of the Final Solution of the Jewish Question, has sections on the process
in each European country, deals with the Einsatzgruppen, gassings,
concentration and death camps, etc. It is, therefore, an excellent
resource for obtaining an overview of the Jewish Holocaust in its various
phases.
