GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORY<br />

Add to this, as I know from my own experience, that certain penal<br />

judges can unconsciously develop negative prejudices toward the defendants.<br />

I had an acquaintance who had been a penal judge for decades<br />

and who had developed such a cynicism that it would make your blood<br />

freeze in your veins. As penal judges you are generally dealing with the<br />

lower layers of society, whose representatives usually sit here in the<br />

dock, to express it cautiously. I have now spent a year in Stuttgart prison<br />

and have therefore gained an impression of the usual regular guests<br />

there. It is therefore understandable and to a certain extent inevitable<br />

that a judge can develop negative prejudices against such defendants,<br />

even if that were to happen completely subconsciously. In order to<br />

avoid that this tendency of subconscious assumption of guilt works<br />

against the defendant, a verbal transcript would be very important indeed.<br />

In addition to this we must of course consider the possibility of despotic<br />

arbitrariness as well, which is a particular threat in trials like the<br />

present one, where strong political expectations exist from various<br />

sides. I do not want to make any imputation about you in this regard,<br />

since I do not yet know what you will finally write in your verdict. But<br />

already the mere fact that theoretically you do have the possibility to<br />

claim about this trial whatever you want must make us pause and ponder.<br />

I may demonstrate with an example from my first trial that this<br />

kind of misuse of power does indeed occur.<br />

The core of that first trial consisted of the question whether I had<br />

condoned the addition of texts to my expert report for which Otto Ernst<br />

Remer had taken the responsibility (preface and documenting appendix).<br />

I denied this during the trial, among other things with the reason<br />

that I had tried as best as possible to keep a distance to O.E. Remer. In<br />

an attempt to prove the opposite, the court introduced an original application<br />

form for a revisionist conference of the year 1991, which had<br />

been found in my possession and which I had signed. O.E. Remer had<br />

been the official organizer of that conference. During the trial I stated<br />

that, at that time, I had neither noticed who the official organizer had<br />

been nor had I even been interested in it at all. I had only been interested<br />

in those who intended to lecture there, and in this regards I had been<br />

interested mainly in Wilhelm Stäglich and Robert Faurisson. Apart<br />

from that I also pointed out that I had not participated in that conference,<br />

which was also proven by the fact that the original of that form<br />

had been found in my possession, because I had not sent it in.<br />
