Editing Death by burning (section)

===Revenge against Germans===
[[Benjamin B. Ferencz]], one of the prosecutors in the [[Nuremberg trials]] after the end of [[World War II]] who, in May 1945, investigated occurrences at the [[Ebensee concentration camp]], narrated them to Tom Hofmann, a family member and biographer. Ferencz was outraged at what the Germans had done there. When people discovered an SS guard who attempted to flee, they tied him to one of the metal trays used to transport bodies into the [[crematorium]]. They then lit the oven and slowly roasted the SS guard to death, taking him in and out of the oven several times. Ferencz said to Hofmann that at the time, he was in no position to stop the proceedings of the mob, and frankly admitted that he had not been inclined to try. Hofmann adds, "There seemed to be no limit to human brutality in wartime."<ref>''Hofmann'' (2013), [https://books.google.com/books?id=JXZzAQAAQBAJ&pg=PA86 p. 86]</ref>
