BERLIN (AA) – A German court on Tuesday found a 97-year-old woman guilt of complicity in killings of more than 10,000 people at a Nazi camp.
Irmgard Furchner, known as the "secretary of evil," was given a two-year suspended sentence by the court in the northern town of Itzehoe.
Furchner was 18 years old when she worked as a stenographer and typist for the Nazi commander of the Stutthof concentration camp.
Earlier this month, she told the court that she was sorry for what had happened.
"I am sorry for everything that happened. I regret that I was just in Stutthof at that time. That's all I can say,” she said.
At least 60,000 people, mostly Jews from across Germany, were killed at the Nazi concentration camp between 1940 and 1945.
The case is likely to be the last trial of Nazis involved in the Holocaust, which claimed the lives of 6 million Jews, during the World War II.
