English Translation

16a I do not present a pite and a decree of the courted fine, for I will not consider it the right thing to do either. I am rather convinced that even though the life of the accused must continue to be at the border of need, he must and must be reprimanded for a penitence. But as such may be a fine. Leh therefore believes that the real execution of a prison sentence would be too difficult for the accused in their unwittingly scelic constitution, which was actually no longer tried in appeal proceedings, and that in such a case a mercy nerve would be the right thing to do. A0S Karlovy Vary, 3 January 1942. UOU Dr. Rudolf Kraus, defender of the wife Ruth Klier. R2 MCAAM 37541 61 O B
