In Nazi occupied Poland people who hid Jews faced the death penalty, and in other countries under Nazi rule they risked being sent to a concentration camp. (The penalties were not always enforced).

If a family was found to be harboring fugitive Jews, the Gestapo would usually shoot the Jews and then kill the family.

This was not always the case, however, because the Gestapo were very good at getting what they wanted. They would present families suspected of harboring Jews with 2 options:

Reveal the location of the Jews, or suffer a humiliating death at the hands of the SS.
