dc.description.abstractUNITED STATES vs. KURT ANDRAE, et al. was a war crimes trial that took place in the American occupied zone of Germany in 1947. The concentration camp of Mittelbau-Dora provided the labour for the vengeance-missiles production of the Third Reich. The Nazi use of forced labour was condemned at the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg and prosecutors called for the consequent prosecution of all involved. Constrained by applicable laws, Nuremberg left a void in the conspiratorial assessment of individual culpability for state orchestrated crimes. Eventually, the American occupation government implemented military laws that allowed for the conviction of perpetrators for their conspiratorial furtherance of the Nazi cause. Although the trial was destined to deliver a judicial condemnation of conspiracies against the life of enslaved prisoners of war and deportees from occupied territories, the prosecution's case ultimately faltered, and the trial soon relegated its initial purpose to the background.
