She worked at the British newspaper ''The Guardian'' from 1932 until 1937, operating in the German capital of Berlin. She was attracted to the ideology of the [[Nazi Party]] and in 1934 began working closely with the [[Gestapo]] secret police. Mory accepted a position as a German spy, serving under [[Bruno Sattler]]. She used her job as a journalist to follow and observe opponents of the Nazi Party all around Europe. Mory is known to have spied on publisher Emil Oprecht and politician Max Braun, and to have collected information on the defensive Maginot Line in France. Mory was arrested in France in 1938 on suspicion of espionage. She was sentenced to death in April 1940, but was pardoned later that year after accepting a deal to become a double agent. However, soon after Germany invaded France and Mory's deal with authorities was uncovered. She was arrested and released, then arrested again in 1940 and sent to the Ravensbrück women's camp, where she became a kapo. Her job was to oversee forced labour and enforce discipline. Despite this she was initially included on a list of inmates scheduled to be killed in the [[gas chamber]], but her name was removed by a friend of hers. Mory soon obtained a horrific reputation at Ravensbrück. She was described by former inmates as "sadomasochistic, psychopathic [and] sexually voracious" and allegedly had sexual relationships with several of the inmates. She was often seen in the infirmary savagely beating inmates, or administering lethal injections. One inmate testifying at Mory's trial recalled an incident in which Mory had come across a group of Polish women who had just arrived at the camp. Mory had mocked them and threatened them with an injection that would "calm them down forever" before leading them into the infirmary and showing them a room full of dead bodies, bragging that she had killed all of them. She oversaw forced labour, beating inmates with her belt and with a rubber hose to make them work faster, and often forced inmates to strip naked before pouring freezing water over them to induce hyperthermia. Mory was known to be proud of the poor conditions in her barracks, once boasting that she rarely gave the prisoners anything to eat and that they were sometimes reduced to eating excrement. Ravensbrück was liberated in 1945. Mory was released, but was soon arrested after other inmates identified her as one of the camp's most notorious kapos. Mory was charged with war crimes at the Ravensbrück Trials in 1947. She was sentenced to death but committed suicide on 9 April 1947 before the sentence could be carried out.
