"I am opening the 121 session of the trial. The court gives the sentence. The accused will stands up (the accused stands up). Now, when we have come to the end of the lengthy hearing in this trial, we must sentence the accused. The legal advisor demands that the accused be sentenced to death... We considered the appropriate punishment for the accused, out of a deep feeling of the burden of responsibility placed upon us, and we came to the conclusion that for the sake of punishing the accused and deterring others, he should be given the maximum punishment prescribed by law. In the verdict, we described the crimes in which the defendant participated, and the defendant was convicted, and they are terrible beyond compare in their essence and scope. The purpose of the crimes against the Jewish people, of which the accused was convicted, was the extermination of an entire natio from the earth... This court sentenced Adolf Eichmann to death, for the crimes against the Jewish people, the crimes against humanity, and the war crime of which he was convicted... This is the sentence...".
