Description: Mention war crimes trials to almost anyone and they will respond with one word, 'Nuremberg.' Most think there was only one trial following the Second World War, the International Military Tribunal, but this trial indicted only 24 defendants.
Brief description: Russell Kent is a retired IT consultant. In a 35-year career, he owned and managed two companies which provided writing and training services to many of the world's largest users of digital technology. He has a degree in physiology from the University of London and is a published scientist. His interests in forensic medicine, modern history and law led him to the discovery that some victims of WW2 war crimes had been autopsied. Since then he has developed an enduring interest in how the British prosecuted hundreds of suspected war criminals in the 1940s. Russell lives in Cambridgeshire and The National Archives in Kew.
