Under the cover of the Second World War, the Nazis conducted horrific crimes within the barbed wire fences of the concentration camps. The SS guards and the staff who worked inside camps such as Auschwitz, Bergen-Belsen and Ravensbruck were horrifically brutal to the prisoners who were sent to the camps. Many beatings were administered by guards, sometimes beating people so bad that they were killed. But it wasn't just men who were immensely violent at the camp, women were also complicit too.
After World War 2, a number of female concentration camp guards were brought to justice to face up to their crimes of the Holocaust. Brought to trial were evil women such as Irma Grese, Maria Mandel, Johanna Bormann, Elisabeth Volkenrath who were complicit in the murders and deaths of thousands. Maria Mandel was even sentenced to death for being involved in the deaths of 500,000 people. Many of these women exhibited incredibly sadistic and violent behaviour, from whipping prisoners to setting their dogs on them. Today we look at ten of these women who were immensely horrific to the prisoners, and we look at what happened to them as the Second World War came to and end.
So join us today as we look at, '10 EVIL Female Nazi Concentration Camp Guards.'
