    Of course, Mr. Hoffman is not above lying himself.  He claims that
Goeth was arrested not only for theft, but for the murder of inmates.  The
affidavits he claims show this do not in fact provide clear evidence for
what charges were made against him.  (There was one list of crimes which
were discovered in the camps, and a separate list of people arrested - but
it is not a valid interpretation to say that each and every person
arrested must have committed each and every crime on the list.)  The
unambiguous sources only mention corruption charges, not murder.

    This has been pointed out to Mr. Hoffman more than once, yet he
continues to make his fraudulent claim, pretending to have evidence he
does not in fact hold.  Mr. Hoffman has been caught at other fraudulent
claims which he continues to repeat even though he should be well aware
that he is wrong.  Not everything he says is false, but even his "truths"
are often selective and distorted.

Moreover, Hoffman ignores the fact that the SS judicial
system did not view mass murder as a crime at all... on
the contrary:

1. The accused shall not be punished because of the actions against
the Jews as such. The Jews have to be exterminated and none of the
Jews that were killed is any great loss. Although the accused should
have recognized that the extermination of the Jews was the duty of
Kommandos which were set up especially for this purpose, he should
be excused for considering himself to have the authority to take
part in the extermination of Jewry himself.
