Ben Ferencz, Nuremberg Trials Prosecutor of Major Nazi War Crimes, Dies at 103

Ferencz immigrated to the U.S. from Romania, joined the U.S. Army for WWII, and became an investigator of crimes against U.S. soldiers.
He was recruited to serve as chief prosecutor for a case charging 22 Nazi commanders with murdering over 1 million Jews and others.
Ferencz secured convictions of top Nazi officials and sought justice for victims throughout his life.
He pushed for the creation of international courts and advocated against war and for human rights.
Ferencz, who championed "law not war," was the last surviving Nuremberg prosecutor.
