Eichmann Called 'Murderer Of Millions' In Prosecution Sum
Israel's attorney general labeled Adolf Eichmann a murderer of millions and an inveterate liar as he opened the prosecution summation in Eichmann's war crimes trial. Gideon Hausner portrayed Eichmann as a central figure in the plan to exterminate Europe's Jews and criticized his defense of a minor role. The prosecutor tied Eichmann to Goering and the Nazi campaign, noting extensive documents and Eichmann's involvement in sending Jews to death camps. The summation continued as the court reconvened after a two week recess, with verdict date expectations after the defense's later summation.
