      He was a career criminal, that’s not the issue.

      He was a big Nazi, and would say “two heil Hitlers” instead of three cheers.

        TIL :(

        I’ve updated the post to link to the wikipedia article; I probably would not have posted this if I had seen that first :/

        It’s odd that the petapixel article doesn’t mention he’s a nazi or that his identity was unknown for nearly 30 years after the incident as wikipedia says; it instead implies he was already known for other things by saying he “starred in theater productions and television shows” 🤔
