1:35:00
What were the circumstances
surrounding the trial?

1:35:05
It was used as a show place
for National Socialism.

1:35:11
It was the time
of the September celebrations...

1:35:15
the Nuremberg rallies.
1:35:17
The courtroom was crowded.
1:35:20
Back there, people were standing up.
1:35:24
Julius Streicher was sitting
in one of the front seats.

1:35:28
And high officials of the Nazi Party
were all over.

1:35:34
Would you please tell us...
1:35:36
what were your expectations for the trial
in this climate?

1:35:40
I expected the worst...
1:35:43
when I saw...
1:35:45
that Emil Hahn was the public prosecutor.
1:35:49
He was a fanatic.
1:35:51
His trials were always marked
by extreme brutality.

1:36:00
But I had one hope for the outcome...
1:36:05
because sitting on the judge's bench...
1:36:09
was Ernst Janning.
1:36:12
His reputation
was known throughout Germany.

1:36:16
He was known
to have dedicated his life to justice.

1:36:21
To the concept of justice.
1:36:26
Thank you. That's all.
1:36:31
Any questions?
1:36:34
Thank you. No questions.
1:36:36
The witness is excused.
1:36:40
The prosecution calls to the stand...
1:36:43
Irene Hoffman Wallner.
