Otto Moll

Otto Hermann Wilhelm Moll (4 March 1915 – 28 May 1946) was an SS non-commissioned officer who committed numerous atrocities at the Auschwitz concentration camp during the Second World War. Moll held the rank of ''SS-Hauptscharführer'' "Head Section Leader", the equivalent to a US Military Master Sergeant and or British Military Warrant Officer. He was known as "Cyclops", due to having a glass eye, and as the "Butcher of Birkenau".

SS Hauptscharführer Moll held the position of SS Rapportführer a senior SS position within the SS Guard Units the "Totenkopfverbände" sanctioned within the camps.

Moll is said personally to have killed hundreds at Birkenau, and oversaw the deaths of hundreds of thousands while at the camp, such as of the Hungarian Jews in 1944. He served as the chief of the crematorium/extermination zone at Birkenau from 1943 to 1945, a role that he carried out with immense cruelty.

Moll never stood trial for what he did at Auschwitz, having left shortly before its liberation and instead surrendering to the U.S. Army at Dachau in April 1945. However, in November 1945, he was charged as a war criminal at the U.S.-run Dachau camp trial. A month later, Moll was found guilty and sentenced by hanging. He was executed in 1946.

Otto Moll has been described as "the ultimate example of the cruel 'Nazi spirit'", while doctor Miklós Nyiszli described Moll as "the most insane murderer of the World War". Moll has also been described as "the sadistic and cruel executor of the 'Final Solution,' a man who was the terror of both the Jews and the SS men", and as one of the "most sadistic and evil figures in the history of Auschwitz".
