Bernhard Lösener, (born December 27, 1890, died August 28, 1952), was a lawyer and Jewish expert in the Reich Ministry of the Interior. Along with Wilhelm Stuckart, he helped draft the Nuremberg Laws, among other legislation that deprived German Jews of their rights and ultimately lead to their deportation to concentration camps.〔Peter Longerich. Holocaust: The Nazi Persecution and Murder of the Jews. Oxford University Press. 2010. Pgs 121-122.〕〔Karl Schleunes. The Twisted Road to Auschwitz: Nazi Policy towards German Jews, 1933-39. University of Illinois Press, Urbana. 1970.〕 In his memoirs, ''Legislating the Holocaust'', Lösener described his discovery of an incident where approximately 1,000 recently deported German Jews, were transported by train to Rumbula Forest in Riga, Latvia and there summarily executed along with 25,000 Latvian Jews. Lösener wrote he'd not been aware of any orders to execute the German Jews and was disturbed by the executions. He discussed the incident with Stuckart which caused tension between them. Three years later in 1944, according to Lösener's Reich Ministry records, he was arrested for expressing sympathy for the German Jews.〔The Reich Ministry of the Interior and the Jewish Code.

Paderborn & Munich 2002, ISBN 3-50672260-3 , p 115〕 At the Nuremberg Trials, Lösener gave testimony about the discussion he'd had with Stuckart regarding the Rumbula massacre in 1941. This testimony countered Stuckart's claim he'd been unaware of the execution of Jews prior to the Wannsee Conference in 1942. == See also == *Nuremberg trials *Rumbula massacre *The Holocaust 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bernhard Lösener」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
