Nazi Concentration Camp Secretary, 99, Loses Appeal

A German court rejected the appeal of 99-year-old Irmgard Furchner for her role in the deaths of over 10,000 people as a secretary at the Nazi Stutthof concentration camp during World War II.

Furchner was originally tried in a juvenile court because she was eighteen and nineteen years old during the time that the alleged crimes took place. Last month, her lawyers cast doubt on whether Furchner could really be considered an accessory to the murders that took place at the camp, and on whether she was truly aware what was going on.

The trial is considered by many to be one of the last of its kind, as many of those involved in the Nazi's crimes have either died or are now unfit to stand trial due to their old age.
