95-Year-old Nazi Camp Guard Deported From USA To Germany


The United States has extradited a 95-year-old who had been living in Tennessee with German citizenship who once served as a guard in one of Nazi Germany’s concentration camps.

Friedrich Karl Berger arrived in Germany on Saturday, where enforcement took him into custody for inquiring.

 Mr Berger, a former resident of Oak Ridge, Tennessee, did not appeal deportation judgment in February 2020, Immigration judge Rebecca Holt said Friedrich Karl Berger had served in the camp where prisoners were held in "atrocious" conditions. 

Berger is the seventieth Nazi persecutor to be removed from the United States according to the justice department.

"After 75 years, this is ridiculous. I cannot believe it," he told the Washington Post newspaper after the trial last year. "You're forcing me out of my home."

"Berger’s removal demonstrates the Department of Justice’s and its law enforcement partners’ commitment to ensuring that the United States is not a safe haven for those who have participated in Nazi crimes against humanity and other human rights abuses," Acting Attorney General Monty Wilkinson said in a DOJ press release.  

Acting Immigration and Customs Director Tae Johnson said Berger’s deportation demonstrates the United States’ commitment to ensuring the country wouldn’t be a safe haven for human rights violators and war criminals.

"We will never cease to pursue those who persecute others. This case exemplifies the steadfast dedication of both ICE and the Department of Justice to pursue justice and to hunt relentlessly for those who participated in one of history’s greatest atrocities, no matter how long it takes," Johnson said.
