Field Marshal Erwin Rommel was implicated in a failed assassination attempt on Hitler even though he was in hospital recovering from wounds at the time. He was given the choice of taking poison and having a state funeral or going to trial with the possibility of his family being implicated in his "crime". Since none of those involved in the attempt to kill Hitler were given a fair trial, he had only one option.
