Josef Scheungraber, 90, was given a life sentence in a Munich state court for ordering the executions of 11 Italians on 26, June 1944. He was a 25-year-old lieutenant during WWII. Ten died and one survived. That sole survivor offered his testimony during the trial. He had been found guilty of the crimes in 2006 in an Italian court but served no time. Prior to this conviction, Scheungraber ran a furniture store and was recognized for his municipal service. Heinrich Boere, a Nazi hitman, will go on trial in October and a judge is considering the case of John Demjanjuk, 89, who is charged in connection with murders at the Sobibor camp in Poland. At long last, the last Nazi suspects of WWII are finally seeing justice.
