2:01:03
Who is the braver man?
2:01:06
The man who escapes,
or resigns in times of peril...
2:01:11
or the man who stays on his post...
2:01:14
at the risk of his own personal safety?
2:01:17
The defense will present witnesses
and letters and documents...
2:01:22
from religious and political refugees
all over the world...
2:01:24
telling how Ernst Janning saved them
from execution.
2:01:27
The defense will show that many times...
2:01:30
Ernst Janning was able
to effect mitigation of sentences...
2:01:33
when, without his influence,
the results would have been much worse.
2:01:38
The defense will show...
2:01:40
that Ernst Janning's personal physician
was a non-Aryan...
2:01:46
a Jewish man...
2:01:49
who he kept in attendance,
much to his own peril.
2:01:55
The defense presents affidavits...
2:01:58
from legal authorities
and famed jurists the world over...
2:02:02
pleading that special considerations
must be made in this case...
2:02:06
saying that the entire work
of Ernst Janning...
2:02:09
was inspired by one motive,
and one motive only:
2:02:12
The endeavor to preserve justice
and the concept of justice.
2:02:21
Now...
2:02:23
what has the prosecution to offer...
2:02:28
against this?
2:02:30
The prosecution, in fact...
2:02:33
has presented in the case of Ernst Janning
only one tangible piece of evidence.
2:02:38
The Feldenstein case.
A notorious case, as the defense has said.
2:02:41
A case which never
should have been reopened.
2:02:44
A case which the defense is obliged...
2:02:47
to review now.
2:02:50
The defense calls Mrs. Elsa Lindnow.
