"On November 20, 1945, the surviving representatives of the Nazi elite, including Hermann Goering, the former head of the Nazi air force, stood before an international military tribunal at the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, Germany charged with the murder of millions of people.

"Robert Jackson, a 53-year-old Supreme Court Justice from New York, appeared before the Nuremberg Tribunal on November 20, 1945. He was the chief prosecutor in the first-ever trial to put an entire national government in the dock. While governments and armies had been waging wars for centuries--an action not punishable according to international law--the actions of the German Nazi party during World War II were regarded as so abhorrent that the Allied victors chose to prosecute the Nazi regime as a brutally implemented conspiracy--charging the surviving representatives of the Nazi elite with the murder of millions of people. The Nuremberg Trials, from the PBS American Experience collection, features rare archival material and eyewitness accounts to recreate this dramatic tribunal; an event guaranteeing that crimes against humanity would never again go unpunished."
