They claimed that they were just following orders.
At the Nuremberg trials, some former Nazis offered different defenses for their actions during the war. Some claimed they were just following orders and thus should not be held personally responsible for their actions. Others argued that they were unaware of the extent of the atrocities committed by the Nazi regime. However, these defenses were generally not accepted, and the principle of individual responsibility for war crimes was established.

Nuremberg Trails
Say hallo to Nuremberg, Germany! Nuremberg was once highly sought by German Emporers, then bombed to bits during WWII. Nuremberg has risen to its former glory and is one of the most livable places in the world. One of the top tourist attractions in Nuremberg is the National Germanic Museum. This museum survived WWII with a few scrapes and bruises from bombs. National Germanic Museum is perfect for a history buff or art lover. Another destination that will leave visitors in awe is St. Lawernce’s Church. Built with gothic high style, St. Lawernce did not escape the bombing of WWII. Later reconstructed 1945 St. Lawrence is now open to the public, and as stunning as ever. Nuremberg, Germany is an exciting destination for history, art, and authentic Germany. Away from the large cities of Germany, Nuremberg offers guest a taste of life in Germany in a relaxed setting.

You're probably thinking of what is commonly called the "Nuremberg Defense". The Nuremberg Defense can be summarized as: "I was only following orders."The idea is that the person says they are not guilty of war crimes because someone higher ranking than them ordered them to do it. However, international law stipulates that this is not a valid defense- you're supposed to use your brain, and if someone higher ranking than you tells you to do something that you know is wrong, DON'T DO IT.As such, the defense completely failed, and nobody was exonerated based upon it. Interestingly, one leader, Admiral Karl Doenitz, was exonerated of one charge against him because he was able to prove that the US Navy had done the thing he was accused of doing (unrestricted submarine warfare).
