This episode uncovers the chilling life of Johann Reichhart, one of the most prolific executioners of the 20th century—a man who served both the Weimar Republic, the Nazi regime, and later even the U.S. military authorities in post-war Germany. From his beginnings in a family of executioners to his rise under Nazi rule, Reichhart personally carried out more than 3,000 executions, including those of Hans and Sophie Scholl of the White Rose resistance. Yet behind his precision and loyalty to the regime lies a story of moral collapse, personal tragedy, and the devastating consequences of blind obedience. Was he a willing servant of tyranny—or a man trapped by fate and history? This is the unsettling story of Johann Reichhart.
