In 2018, Ferencz was the subject of a documentary on his life, Prosecuting Evil, by director Barry Avrich, which was made available on Netflix. In the same year, Ferencz was also interviewed for the 2018 Michael Moore documentary Fahrenheit 11/9.
Sergeant. Battles/wars. World War II. Benjamin Berell Ferencz (born March 11, 1920) is an American lawyer. He was an investigator of Nazi war crimes after World War II and the chief prosecutor for the United States Army at the Einsatzgruppen Trial, one of the 12 military trials held by the U.S. authorities at Nuremberg, Germany.
After 13 years, and under the impression of the events of the Vietnam War, Ferencz left the private law practice and henceforth worked for the institution of an International Criminal Court that would serve as a worldwide highest instance for issues of crimes against humanity and war crimes.
On January 16, 2020, The New York Times printed Ferencz's letter denouncing the assassination of the Iranian general Qassem Soleimani, unnamed in the letter, as an "immoral action [and] a clear violation of national and international law". He became a centenarian two months later.
On Christmas 1945 , Ferencz was honorably discharged from the Army with the rank of sergeant. He returned to New York, but was recruited only a few weeks later to participate as a prosecutor in the Subsequent Nuremberg Trials in the legal team of Telford Taylor. Taylor appointed him chief prosecutor in the Einsatzgruppen Case —Ferencz's first case. All of the 22 men on trial were convicted; 13 of them received death sentences, of which four were eventually carried out. Apart from East Germany, they were the last executions performed on German soil, and in the federal republic.
Early life and education. Ferencz was born on March 11, 1920, in Csolt, Szatmár County, located in the historical Transylvania region in the Kingdom of Hungary (today part of Șomcuta Mare, Romania ). A few months later, Transylvania was ceded to Romania under the Treaty of Trianon (1920), the result of World War I.

Following the June 12, 1994, murder of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, Simpson stayed in Kardashian's house to avoid the media.

Radko Gudas, Washington Capitals ( Amy Irvin / The Hockey Writers) On Nov. 19, 2017, the Flyers defenseman sat out 10 games earlier for slashing Winnipeg’s Mathieu Perreault across the back of the head. It warranted the sixth match penalty in his six-season NHL career and third suspension in a Flyers uniform.
Lemieux plays the game like a thug and has a history of sitting in the penalty box. Brendan Lemieux, New York Rangers ( Amy Irvin / The Hockey Writers) In 2017-18, while with the Manitoba Moose, Winnipeg’s AHL affiliate, he had 170 penalty minutes in 51 games.
He loves to run his trash-talking mouth and isn’t afraid to use his stick to bring players to their knees. He has a long-running feud with fellow antagonist Matthew Tkachuk of the Calgary Flames.
Though only 21 years old and only four seasons into his career, Tkachuk is widely hated by fans and his peers, especially Los Angeles Kings defenseman Drew Doughty. The two are far from best friends.
Clipping. Slew-footing. Elbowing. Spearing. That’s the “Little Ball of Hate.” At 5-foot-9 forward, he has more despicable on-ice antics per pound than any player in the history of the NHL. Players admit, you love him on your team but feel the opposite if playing against him.
Playing against Perry is like being a mole in a ‘Whack-A-Mole’ arcade game. The 2003 first-round pick plays an aggressive style with a penchant for some nasty stick work, hacking and whacking opponents whenever he can. He also riles opponents by running his mouth, delivering late and low hits, and has a flare for selling penalties like a manic street preacher.
This past July, he was flipped for Milan Lucic and a draft pick. Neal is playing on his sixth NHL team in his 11-year career, having previously played for the Stars, Penguins, Predators, Golden Knights and the Calgary Flames.
