Roland Freisler: Difference between revisions

'''Roland Freisler''' (October 30^th, 1893 - February 3^rd, 1945) was a German judge and state secretary of the Reich ministry of justice during [[World War II]]. He was also one of those responsible for setting [[The Holocaust]] in motion.

In 1945, Freisler's court was forced to evacuate during a trial due to an air raid. As the others escaped, Freisler stopped to gather up court files, only for a bomb to hit the justice ministry. Three accounts of his death exist. The first states that the blast knocked over a masonry column, crushing Freisler to death. The second states that a piece of shrapnel hit him and he bled to death in the street. The final account states that the bomb came through the roof as Freisler was trying to escort others in the courtroom out and obliterated him. Either way, his death was barely mourned and he was buried in an unmarked grave.
