Mr. John J. McCloy[edit]

It should/must be mentioned that Oberheuser had her life sentence commuted by Mr. John J. McCloy, when he was the U.S. High Commissioner of Allied-occupied Germany. - 26/10/13

sentence[edit]

the sentence was "She would kill jewish children and take out vital organs and put saw dust and crushed glass inside the wounds while they were still alive."

If she killed them, then how could she put things in their wounds while they were still alive? I re-arranged the sentence. But I don't know if I have it exactly right. Kingturtle 01:51, 3 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the part about the Nuremberg trials in general because the information is a) already at Doctors' Trial and b) was copy(vio)ed verbatim from the linked website. regards, High on a tree 19:48, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I have removed 2 sentences from the previous article about livers being removed from Jewsh children, which are not substantiated by any existing documents related to Herta Oberheuser. I have added the sentence about 86 victimes of the medical experiments in which Dr. Oberheuser actively participated. --fitzner 18:08, 2004 Nov 22 (UTC)Fitzner

Copyright?[edit]

The following text from the article

Dr. Herta Oberheuser killed children with oil and evipan injections, then removed their limbs and vital organs. The time from the injection to death was between three and five minutes, with the person being fully conscious until the last moment.

She made some of the most gruesome and painful medical experiments during World War II, focused on deliberately inflicting wounds on the subjects. In order to simulate the combat wounds of German soldiers fighting in the war, Herta Oberheuser rubbed foreign objects, such as wood, rusty nails, slivers of glass, dirt or sawdust into the wounds.

Copyright problem II[edit]

About 90% of the article is a word for word copy of the relevant portion of this 2009 article from The Daily Mail. signing Herzlicheboy (talk) 01:43, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Evipan[edit]

It is a barbiturate so death by it would not have been painful. Not excusing or ignoring other methods of murder but in the interest of accuracy, I mention this.--Jrm2007 (talk) 19:19, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
