The Nazi secret police, also known as the 'Gestapo' were free from the law. The Gestapo law assured that and it stated that activities by the Gestapo were free from review by courts.
This extreme power allowed the Gestapo to torture and even execute Nazi opposition.
Unlike the German police, they were allowed to arrest on suspicion, this lead to many Germans to keep their thoughts to themselves, an overheard comment by a Nazi official would lead to an arrest and a sentence to a labour camp.
