Nazi stooge ‘The Secretary of Evil’ dies aged 99 after being convicted over role in 10,000 murders at WW2 death camp

NAZI stooge Irmgard Furchner, known as the “Secretary of Evil”, has died aged 99.

Furchner worked for the SS commander of the infamous Stutthof camp in Poland's north.

Furchner died on January 14 but her passing has not been reported until now.

The news was confirmed to news magazine Spiegel by a local prosecutor.

Furchner was tried in a juvenile court as she was under 21 at the time of the alleged crimes.

She worked as a stenographer and secretary to the camp commander
PaulWerne-Hoppe between June 1943 and April 1945.

The Nazi was charged with aiding the murder of over 10,000 prisoners at the camp, where she worked from June 1943 to April 1945.

Since the beginning of the trial, Furchner claimed she was not aware of the mass killings – despite her job as secretary of the camp's commander.

This meant she reported directly to the murderous SS.

Prosecutors had earlier requested she be sentenced to just two years probation if found guilty.

Furchner had meanwhile remained practically silent in presumed shame since the beginning of the trial on September 30 2021.

She spoke her first words on December 6, saying: “I'm sorry about everything that happened. I regret that I was in Stutthof at the time.

“I cannot say more.”

Furchner made headlines last year in September after she left her retirement home, jumped into a taxi and attempted to go on the run.

But the police arrested her just hours later by cops as she walked along Langenhorner Chaussee – a road leading into Hamburg.
