Tremmel worked at the camp from November 1942 to June 1943.

Problem solved for all concerned. Except lawyers miss out on some money, no one cares.

I think that the families of those whose deaths he may have been responsible forwouldn't agree with your gratuitously cynical and insensitive view. They may have wanted to see him punished in his last days, rightly so.

Ludicrous. Do you think the families/decendants of all those identified as possibly on the particular transports and possibly killed at that time have been notified. And what was his job as a 19/20 year old.

Vengeance isn't justice. Even for the holocaust.

Latter-day fascists't, Neo-Nazis and the usual crowd care very much that such problems go away and are put to rest. Mind you many of them argue that 'no one cares' as a justification that such trials shouldn't go ahead.
