What happened to the captured prisoner of war camp officials after the American Civil War?
Captain Henry Wirz was the commanding officer of Camp Sumter, the Confederate prisoner of war camp located near Andersonville, Georgia. While commanding this camp, Union prisoners were subject to extreme overcrowding, starvation, little or no protection from the elements and mistreatment at the hands of the guards. Wirz was arrested by federal authorities in May 1865 and charged with conspiracy to impair the lives of Union prisoners of war. He was convicted of the conspiracy charge and 11 of 13 murder charges. He received a death sentence. Wirz asked President Johnson to grant him clemency, but he never received a reply. He was hanged on November 10, 1865. He was the only prisoner of war camp official hanged for such crimes.
