Karl Koch
Karl Koch was a Nazi officer and the commandant of the Buchenwald concentration camp during World War II. He is infamously known for his role in the atrocities committed at the camp, where thousands of prisoners suffered and died. Koch's tenure was marked by corruption and brutality; he was accused of embezzling goods meant for the prisoners and mistreating them severely. His marriage to Ilse Koch, who was equally notorious for her sadistic behavior towards prisoners, added to his infamy. After the war, he was arrested, tried, and ultimately executed for his crimes against humanity.
