#OTD in #Nuremberg — July 5, 1946 — Trial Day 172: Dr. Stahmer continued the closing argument for Hermann Göring, presenting the defense view that Göring’s actions had to be understood within Germany’s political and military situation rather than as proof of a criminal conspiracy.

<p class="text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words">The argument sought to separate Göring’s high office and broad authority from specific criminal intent, stressing questions of legality, command responsibility, and the extent to which individual decisions could be tied directly to the charges in the indictment.</p>
