Perhaps the last Nazi guard charged with war crimes
Perhaps...Last year a 101 year old was convicted and sentenced to 5 years in prison. He died this year a free man out on appeal though
But this guy might be the last. Extremely curious why it took so long to prosecute these guys. I can't find anywhere that says why. It's obviously symbolic though as he was only 17 at the time he was there apparently and this one probably won't even go to trial
There have been 140,000 Nazi war criminal cases investigated and 6,656 convictions to date.

[QUOTE]BERLIN (AP) — A 98-year-old man has been charged in Germany with being an accessory to murder as a guard at the Nazis’ Sachsenhausen concentration camp between 1943 and 1945, prosecutors said Friday.
The German citizen, a resident of Main-Kinzig county near Frankfurt, is accused of having “supported the cruel and malicious killing of thousands of prisoners as a member of the SS guard detail,” prosecutors in Giessen said in a statement. They did not release the suspect’s name.
He is charged with more than 3,300 counts of being an accessory to murder between July 1943 and February 1945. The indictment was filed at the state court in Hanau, which will now have to decide whether to send the case to trial. If it does, he will tried under juvenile law, taking account of his age at the time of the alleged crimes.
