Most know of Josef Mengele, "The Angel of Death" at Auschwitz who was famous for his twin studies and who escaped punishment in South America and died of natural causes in 1979. There were many other Doctors involved. A trial at Nuremberg brought 23 up on charges and found 15 of them guilty. Seven were sentenced to be hanged an they were. Among them was the Reich Commissoner of Sanitation and Health and a former personal physician to Adolf Hitler, Major General Karl Brandt. Of those found guilty and sentenced to prison time was Dr. Herta Oberheuser who had murdered children, wounded people with combat wounds to experiment on battlefield medecine and a host of other vile medical experiments. She was sentenced to 20 years in prison but was released in 1952. She had a respected medical practice until her liscense was yanked in 1958. So much for the Hippocratic Oath in Nazi Germany.
