Nuremberg Lives On: How Justice Jackson's International Experience Continues To Shape Domestic Criminal Procedure, Brian R. Gallini

Loyola University Chicago Law Journal

The end of Germany’s participation in World War II came with its formal surrender on May 8, 1945. After extensive debate over what would come of top Nazi leaders, twenty-two Nazi defendants were tried and ultimately convicted after 216 days of trials held in Nuremberg spread across eleven months between November 1945 and 1946.
