Abstract

The documents reflect an attempt to denaturalize, deport, and/or extradite Nazi war criminals in the United States to European countries or the Soviet Union, to be prosecuted for crimes against humanity. The collection of documents is comprised of legal briefs and other documents used in court proceedings, depositions, witness statements, original Nazi documents used as evidence in court, court rulings and orders, newspaper articles, and other documents relating to prosecution of Nazi war criminals in the United States.

Scope and Contents of the Materials

The record group is comprised of postwar legal documents and newspaper articles from the United States depicting the attempts to denaturalize, deport, and/or extradite Nazi war criminals from the United States to European countries or the Soviet Union, to be prosecuted for crimes against humanity. The legal documents present the legal proceedings of the prosecution as they argued to have the war criminals denaturalized, deported, or extradited. Some of the legal documents provide a brief history of the crimes committed by the defendants, and how these war criminals came to the United States and evaded prosecution for many years. Multiple court appearances were made concerning each accused Nazi war criminal. The alleged Nazi war criminals include Otto Ambros, Basil Artishenko, Paul Herman Bluemel, Boleslavs Bogdanovs, Ildefansas Bucmys, General Leon Degrelle, Anatoly Hrusitzky, Konrad Kalejs, Serge Kowlachuk (Serhij Kowalczuk), Georg Leibbrandt, Karl Linnas, Boleslavs Maikovskis, and Otto Albrecht Alfred von Bolschwing. The newspaper articles included follow the progress of these various legal proceedings of each accused Nazi war criminal.

Materials within the record group include briefs and other legal documents used in court proceedings, depositions, witness statements, original Nazi documents used as evidence in court, court rulings and orders, newspaper articles, and other documents relating to prosecution of Nazi war criminals in the United States. Materials are digitized.

Collection Historical Note

When World War II ended, there were millions of refugees in Europe. Many of them had been victims of the Nazis, survivors of Nazi concentration camps, or persons who had been forced to leave their homes. Among this large mass of people were also some of the Nazi officials who had assisted in mass murder and persecution.

In order to help the millions of true refugees, the United States enacted special immigration laws in 1948 and 1953 which allowed large numbers of refugees to come to the United States without regard to traditional immigration quota restrictions. These special immigration laws specifically excluded any person who had assisted the Nazis in persecuting civilians. However, Nazi criminals were able to enter the United States under these special immigration laws by lying about their activities during the period from 1933 to 1945.

Among the Nazi war criminals who entered the United States by misrepresentation or concealing their wartime activities were concentration camp guards, Nazi police officials, and Nazi government officials.

Jeffrey Mausner worked as a Trial Attorney for the United States Justice Department.

Box and Folder Listing

Collection of Folder-Level 12: RG-80.12, Karl Linnas, 1979--1987

Documents related to the Nazi war criminal Karl Linnas. Linnas was Chief of the concentration camp in Tartu, Estonia. Witnesses testified that Linnas personally participated in atrocities, including mass murder. Linnas misrepresetned and concealed that he was Chief of the concentration camp when he obtained his visa to come to the United States and when he became a U.S. citizen, claiming that he had been a student and technical artist during this time.

According to witnesses' testimony, Linnas supervised the transportation of prisoners from his camp to a nearby anti-tank ditch. On such occasions, innocent Jewish women and children were tied by their hands and brought in their underwear to the edge of the ditch where they were forced to kneel. The guards then opened fire. The ditch became a mass grave. There was also eyewitness testimony that Linnas on at least one occasion announced his victims' death sentence at the side of the ditch and gave the order to fire. Linnas was also said to have then personally approached the edge of the ditch, and fired into it. Another eyewitness recounted having seen Linnas help direct Jews out of a school and onto a school bus. That witness recalled that Linnas helped a small child with a doll onto the bus, and that the doll was later placed in a storage area for the personal effects of those who had been killed.

Linnas was denaturalized and then deported to the USSR, where he was imprisoned. He died in prison is Estonia, which at that time was part of the USSR.
