Henri Philippe Pétain, the former leader of Vichy France during World War II, was imprisoned primarily for his collaboration with Nazi Germany. After the war, he was tried for treason due to his role in establishing a regime that supported German occupation and implemented anti-Semitic policies. In 1945, he was sentenced to death, though his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment due to his age and health. Pétain spent the remainder of his life in prison until his death in 1951.
