The worst criminal in history

Oskar Dirlewanger, no questions. You need to be specially kind of evil to get expelled from the Nazi party on the grounds of moral depravity.

Dirlewanger was not only a war criminal, he was also a civilian criminal of the worst kind. He was a high functioning psychopath and undeniably intelligent. To make a long story short, he was a paedophile, rapist and sadist. While he held a doctorate in the political sciences, he was so depraved that he was expelled from the Nazi party in 1934 after having been sentenced to prison from sexually molesting an underage girl.

His WWI buddy in Waffen SS, Gottlob Berger, realized that only the military could keep him in order - otherwise he would end sooner or later at the guillotine (beheading was the legal method of execution in Germany on civilian crimes until 1968), and he arranged him a place in the Legion Condor. He proved to be a completely fearless soldier.

At the beginning of World War II, Dirlewanger volunteered for the Waffen-SS. He eventually became the commander of the so-called Dirlewanger Brigade (at first designated as a battalion, later expanded to a regiment and a brigade, and eventually a division), composed originally of a small group of former poachers along with soldiers of a more conventional background. It was believed that the excellent tracking and shooting skills of the poachers could be put to constructive use in the fight against partisans. Turned out that assigning him a special unit to lead provided him to fulfill all his perversion, sadistic lusts and murderlust licentiously and in impunity.

Later, Dirlewanger's soldiers were mostly recruited from among the ever-increasing groups of German convicted criminals (civilian and military) and concentration camp inmates, eventually including mental asylum patients, homosexuals, interned Romani people, and (at the end of the war) even political prisoners sentenced for their anti-Nazi beliefs and activities.

This unit - 36th Waffen Division Dirlewanger - was completely useless as soldiers, but perfect on hunting partisans and terrorizing helpless civilians. It was described as a lunatic asylum led by its patients. Dirlewanger was so hated that other SS formations shunned the division and there was an unofficial reward in the Heer for killing Dirlewanger.

Dirlewanger was a sadistic and brutal leader, and ordered death penalties whimsically. He was also completely fearless - he was wounded in combat thirteen times. Dirlewanger's leadership "was characterized by continued alcohol abuse, looting, sadistic atrocities, rape, and murder”—and his mentor Berger tolerated this behaviour, as did Himmler, who so urgently needed men such as the Sonderkommando Dirlewanger.

Finally karma caught him. Dirlewanger was arrested on 1 June 1945 near the town of Altshausen while he was wearing civilian clothes, using a false name and hiding in a remote hunting lodge. He was recognised by a Jewish former concentration camp inmate and brought to a detention centre. He reportedly died around 5–7 June 1945 in a prison camp at Altshausen - he was gang-upped by Polish inmates and clubbed to death.

did mystique really have to walk home naked after she lost her powers in last stand

So did mystique really have to walk home naked after she lost her powers in last stand? Her feelings would be really really hurt at the moment and she would feel very vulnerable as a human looking like one but as he literally left her there I don’t think she would take too long into weaponizing this shame into looking like an innocent victim “could you please take me to civilization, oh a sweater? Thank you you are a kind soul 😇 “ Unless the feds arrived really, really fast she would be out of that place in 20 minutes tops and only if not much cars are passing by. Though she might contact the feds herself if there is some deals to be won. All the dirt and location of magneto resources in exchange of a blank slate and a promise of not doing any activities that could be considered criminal She would be charged. They know her identity despite her ability to shapeshifter including her fingerprints. She will not be off the hook like the last person said. They know who she is and power...

What actually happened to a person who was revived/survived death sentence

Here is a question before us If a person is revived/survived after the death sentence, is he free, imprisoned or sentenced to death again? There’s actually been a case like that. In 1893, a convicted murderer named Will Purvis was hung, but survived. A lot of people thought he was innocent, and he steadfastly proclaimed his innocence. A group of churchgoers who were part of the crowd were praying that he might be delivered right up to the moment that the lever opening the trap door through which Purvis would drop was pulled. The noose didn’t hold and Purvis survived. At this point the entire crowd believed this was a sign from God that Purvis was innocent, but the judge and the lawyers agreed that the sentence was “hung by the neck  until dead .” Though Purvis had fulfilled the first requirement, he hadn’t managed the second. The sheriff was ordered to rehang the prisoner immediately. But, being a God-fearing man himself (to say nothing of being a politician dependent on the votes ...

How common were instances of sexual abuse in Nazi concentration camps

How common were instances of sexual abuse in Nazi concentration camps. The accounts that rap£ or prostitution was common, Were the guards were given "free reign" over the prisoners given view of them as subhuman The Nazis sort of developed a network of state-controlled brothels during the war. This included both the civilian and military brothels. The Nazis even set up brothels for the forced labor inmates that helped with the German war effort as incentives for higher production from prisoners in camps. Back then these brothels were suppose to serving several needs. For the soldiers that were far away from home, the Nazis thought that having these brothels would reduce the possibility of rape in occupied lands and reducing the sexual relations with impure local women or forced laborer's, as well. Heck, the Nazis tried to use these brothel women to cure homosexuality as a treatment with male prisoners that were gay. Regular German women were exempt from serving in these b...

The prisoners in concentration camps have sex with each other

 The prisoners in concentration camps have sex with each other Steady on. Nearly all concentration camps were single-sex, and at those that held both men and women the sexes were usually kept separate, though at Auschwitz III (Monowitz) and possibly also some other sub-camps they worked together. At extermination camps (where the sexes were not separated) most of the prisoners were killed within 24 hours of arrival. Prisoners did not have privacy. Remember that at the time most people had a horror of same-sex relations, especially between men. However, some Kapos and even guards forced prisoners to have sex with them. In Night Elie Wiesel relates how he found his Kapo having sex with a female prisoner, and he (Wiesel) was given 25 lashes for finding them having sex.* In the Women’s Camp at least one guard forced another woman to have sex with her, and at many camps there was a piepel (camp bum boy). *He also describes the hanging of the piepel of a Blockältester ( ‘block senior’). ...
