Richard Baer — The SS Commandant Who Ran Auschwitz and Hid Like a Coward for Fifteen Years
He ran Auschwitz during its deadliest phase. Ten thousand people murdered every single day. He signed the orders. He walked the grounds. He oversaw the gas chambers and the burning pits. He was responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths. And when the war ended he put on civilian clothes, called himself Karl Neumann, and went to work cutting trees in a forest. For fifteen years nobody found him. Then a survivor recognised his face. He was arrested in 1960. Threw in a cell. Denied everything. And died in 1963 before the trial could even begin. He never heard a verdict. He never faced justice. The last commandant of Auschwitz died in a cell and almost got away with it. ⚠️ EDUCATIONAL CONTENT DISCLAIMER: This video is made strictly for educational and historical documentation purposes.
