  • Throughout the Second World War, there were many female guards who worked inside of concentration camps at sites such as Bergen-Belsen and Auschwitz. Following the liberation of Bergen-Belsen, there were a number of women who were accused of being guards and of horrific crimes such as execution, torture and inflicting mass suffering. After the war at the Belsen Trials, Irma Grese, Johanna Borman and Elisabeth Volkenrath who had all worked at Auschwitz were condemned to death for their involvement of crimes in both camps.
    The three women were all taken to Hamelin Prison and they were held for a number of months before the executions were performed by British executioner Albert Pierrepoint. The women were led into the execution chamber and were swiftly walked up the stairs of the gallows before Pierrepoint secured the rope and then released the trapdoor.

    These women's names are often spoken of because their identities are well-known. They are well-known because not all their victims were murdered and some lived to tell what they endured and were witness of. BUT, seemingly countless of their lesser-known peers did manage to escape, flee back into relative anonymity, largely because there were few who survived to accuse them.

      wrong. statistically, women are far less likely to commit violent crimes compared to men. Women make up only 5% of people in prison, compared to 95% which are men. That says it all. That suggests that testosterone has a lot to answer for....without males, society would be almost crime-free.

    I visited Bergen Belsen when I was 18. Knew hardly anything about it. It looked very different then, just a big wide open
    space, surrounded by tall pines, with heather covered mass graves, each containing thousands of bodies. You could see
    the outline of where huts used to be and there was a commemorative wall with inscriptions from Nations. So actually
    nothing much to see & no information anywhere. BUT what I picked up on was an evil atmosphere; all my hair was standing
    on end. I got a very bad feeling all over and felt quite unwell. You could reach out and grab a handful of pure evil, it seemed.
    I had to lie down when we got home and was shaking for ages. My first experience of Nazism shook me to the core.

      I have never been to Hell. However; Before scientists knew about how hot the earth core is. Jesus Christ , soke about Hell. He said , there will be moaning and weeping and gnashing . Also I once had a very bad nightmare. I could not wake up. I dreamed I was falling and falling into this black tunnel . I could hear people screaming in pain and in agony. It was the night after watching the movie called the Exorcist . Also what was more frightening was the fact I had a glow in the dark Frankenstein , poster hanging in my room. When I forced my self to say , "Jesus Christ, please save me ". I woke up in a sweat . Since then I have been studying the Holy Bible. So because some people choose to live a life of sin. The Holy Bible says in Romans ,Chapter #6 verse #23. For the wages of sin is death , but the gift of God is life. The Holy Bible says : ( Thou Shalt Not Murder ). So now the murderers of this Nazi War that killed millions of innocent people . Are now dead. In their human body. Yet their real body is their soul. They can hear, they can feel . So now they are burning in Hell. They feel agony and none stop pain. They can remember everything they have did to innocent men women and children. After these murderers burn in Hell for one thousand years. Then God's Holy Angels will pull these people out of Hell. Then they will be brought nude and on their knees before Jesus Christ. Their entire human lives will then be reviewed . When their names are not found in the ( Lambs Book of Life ) then God's Holy Angels will throw these people into the ( Second Death ) . The ( Second Death ) is called the ( Lake of Fire ). God is all knowing. God is all powerful . God is every where at one time. After the seven years of world tribulation in the near future. The first two people to be thrown into the ( LAKE OF FIRE ) will be the False Prophet and the World Anti Christ . Then The devil will be placed into a pit of darkness for one thousand years. Before the seven years of world wide tribulation . The Rapture of the Church will take place. See : You Tube : Pre-Rapture Under Attack. By: Dr. Reagan . After Jesus Christ comes back , known as the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. He will destroy all the armies of the world that came against Israel at the ( Battle of Armageddon ). Then Jesus Christ will split the Mount of Olives. Jesus Christ will then set up the ( 1000 Year Millennium ). As this is set up. In this 1000 Year Millennium , there will be the ( ACADEMY AWARDS IN HEAVEN ON EARTH . Or called ( THE BEMA SEAT OF CHRIST ) some will be promoted to kings over nations. Some will be promoted to priests . After the ( 1000 Year Millennium ) natural people born in the Millennium will be tested to see if they really want to live for God. For those that choose to live in sin. Then fire will fall from Heaven and destroy these people. Then Jesus Christ will re-create the entire earth. He will make the entire earth like it was back in the Garden of Eden. Jesus Christ will destroy all weapons made for war. He will take away all sickness and all disease . There will be no more pain. No more suffering . No more hunger. God will remove the entire ocean. God will also remove death. In the new Heavens and the New Earth. If you might be intrigued in the study of the entire Holy Bible . From Genesis to the book of Revelation . Then here is the web site : www.joncourson.com I encourage you to get a note pad and a Large Print King James Holy Bible. When you go to this web site , please go to Bible Teachings. Please strive to study one or twenty chapters every day. To keep your place and take notes. This is why you need the note pad. This studying of God's Holy Bible , will help you to know and under stand the entire Holy Bible. Plus it will help you to memorize Bible Scriptures . Now to hear Christian Top Worship music.

    The executions were not horrific. They were conducted by Albert Pierrepoint, who never bungled an execution. He realised that the prisoners could hear their graves being dug and protested, to no avail. He said in his autobiography that he felt sorry for them; they were pathetic. He said that Irma Grese was as bonny a lass as he'd ever seen. She stepped onto the trap and said "Schnell". These people were luckier than the criminals tried and hanged at Nuremberg, which was in the American sector. They were despatched by an American master sergeant who used the standard drop and the old cowboy coil. Wilhelm Keitel died of slow strangulation; his heart was still beating twenty minutes after he went through the drop. (Airey Neave's book about Nuremberg).

    A quick, humane death kind of cheated justice. Starvation would have been better, or starvation and savaged by dogs. Their crimes were so heinous that their punishment tries the humanity of the executioner, and makes us feel feelings that would never erupt under even ordinary cases of murder. Their evil is almost unimaginable. And thank God it is.

    Whilst you have the correct sequence in which the executions of the three women took place singly, it is incorrect to state that their remains were cremated at time point 27:42. In fact they were all buried within the grounds of Hamelin Prison. However, later on in 1955 the British occupying forces relinquished their use of the prison, and the remains were exhumed and were re-interred at Am Wehl Cemetery in Hamelin.

Mass psychosis took over as fear spread, giving many the sense of control and power over themselves and others. Because it provided them with a sense of belonging in the in group and identity in the current social system and their cultivated social contract that was strongly collective/state-based They thought they were justified because they thought they were right. The psychology behind this human conditioning and behavior has played out in societies throughout history and in very recent years as well.

    Now if you want to talk about horrific….look at the hanging of the high-up Nazis at Nuremberg. The executioner…Sgt. Woods USA…was so incompetent that he short dropped them….causing several to take around 15 minutes to strangle themselves. Along with this…the trap door was too small….leading to a couple of them getting severe head injuries as they fell through the floor. All in all….it was a real shit show.

    The executions were not horrific, they were a legal and logical consequence for the horrific and demonic actions of these women. They came from working class families who probably struggled until the Nazi regime took over. Then, these women were given a far more than average salary and power. I believe that giving formerly bullied or disadvantaged people power over other humans will never end well. Many prisoners of concentration camps said that, in the beginning, most guards were acting okay towards them, but they learned what was expected from them in a matter of weeks. They played along to fit in and some of them did extraordinarily well by becoming the most sadist individuals and gained a lot of respect from their colleagues that way. Let's educate our children, let's stand up against bullying and discrimination and let's not vote for politicians who discriminate against certain groups of people.
