Should he be imprisoned?

[TW]

He's 94 years old. Was involved at Auschwitz. My opinion is that he should be put in jail, and he'll probably die in prison. Not something that really matters, in my opinion. He was a part of the worst atrocity in the modern history of mankind, and there should be no "forgiveness" because of his age. He's escaped justice long enough.

For me, it goes something like this, He like every human here was following instructions from a leader that he believed in. With that I stop by saying he was part of killing innocent people. people who wore no uniform , I would put him to death now. He lived out his live after the war I guess as a good person. but what he did was on the innocent not against the enemy,not those who were at war.he lived a long time , put him out of his misery.

I think prison is a better message. Of course, I'm against capital punishment. I think it's an easy out compared to spending the rest of a person's days in a cell.

I certainly have no sympathy for him. I believe he should spend his remaining time behind bars.

Exactly. If he's the last Nazi, and his life ends in prison, it's fitting justice.

put him in prison. he was charged with 300 THOUSAND counts of accessory to murder. so lock him up for about 3 million years, with 10 years per charge.

Our prisons are growing faster every year, the U.S.A. has a big problem right now with space in our prisons they all are over crowded plus we the tax payer pays to keep a killer, feed clothed, healthy for 25 years it is crippling the tax payer. Many should be given a uniform and sent over seas to fight tag them all so we know where they are if they try to make a run for it. Make the lesser crime help clean up the country, build the rail system, dif ditches for all the sewers and etc. put them to work for there sentence for there room and board. they must work off there crime and time, then also they must go to a class every day to learn to be a person that contributes to the society instead of costing us pain and money to keep them. make sure they work long hours, and the class is long so they are craving a good nights sleep.

Spandau prison, in Germany, was empty, except for one prisoner for decades. Rudolf Hess. He was the only inmate, and there was limited access to him, by the outside. The French, Russians, British, and Americans, rotated the detail of guarding him. This guy should get the same solitary confinement.
