| It is not claimed by the prosecution, nor was
it stated by the Tribunal, that Bobermin personally maltreated anyone, but it
has been established that he took a consenting part in the commission of war
crimes and crimes against humanity. It has been demonstrated beyond a
reasonable doubt that he participated in a program of spoliation and plundering
and that he authorized the use of concentration camp labor in the plant at
Golleschau. Defense counsel has pleaded that even if it be admitted that Bobermin was somewhat to blame for what transpired under his jurisdiction, the sentence imposed on him was too severe. There is this to be said in this connection. In Nuernberg the offenses of spoliation and slave labor have not been punished uniformly. Tribunals have differed on the measure of punishment meted out to those convicted of these offenses. While not attempting to adjust the sentence in this case to what may have been imposed in any other cases, the Tribunal is satisfied, after a review of all the evidence, that the term of imprisonment to which Bobermin was sentenced should be reduced. |
