Alleged Nazi guard Demjanjuk charged in Germany
Alleged Nazi camp guard John Demjanjuk was formally charged Monday with being an accessory to about 27,900 murders during World War II.
The German court originally accused him of complicity in about 29,000 murders. The prosecutor's office said it revised the number downward because some of those who had allegedly died in the camp when Demjanjuk was there were already dead during the transport to Sobibor.
The court has not announced a date for the trial to begin, but Winkler believes it will be in the autumn because of Demjanjuk's frail health, he said.
