"The majority died of natural diseases of one kind or the another.
However, we did probe into such questions as, 'What happened to those
prisoners who became psychotic at Dachau? What did the Gestapo do with
them?' Well, they took those people to the crematorium. First,
however,
they were taken to a big windowless building next to the crematorium
where
the ceiling was covered with false shower heads. The victims were then
ordered to strip and take a 'shower.' Outside the building, guards
dropped
in cyanide pellets. Then they'd blow the cyanide gas out and remove
the
bodies next door to the crematorium ovens. I think this is what
happened
to most of the truly psychotic prisoners and those they considered
unruly
and unmanageable and who, in the Gestapo's opinion, were
incorrigibles.
But, in my opinion, only relatively few of the inmates I personally
examined at Dachau were murdered in this manner. Still, medical
facilities
were totally inadequate. When people fell hopelessly ill and death was
imminent, and when they grew so weak they could no longer work or
function, they were taken to the cyanide room for disposal. The Nazi
called them 'mercy killings' because there was no hope of them getting
well. Actually, the Germans considered them a liability, and
extermination
was the answer." ('Crime Doctor,' McCallum & Larson, p. 61.
