Otto Ohlendorf (February 4, 1907 - June 8, 1951) was an SS-Gruppenführer and head of the interior division of the SD.
Ohlendorf's frank, apparently reliable testimony was attributed to his distaste for the corruption that was rampant in Nazi Germany and a stubborn commitment to duty.
Otto Ohlendorf was sentenced to death and hanged on June 8, 1951.

Ohlendorf refused to see that when war planes bomb a city within whose borders are located ammunition plants, factories, railroads and telegraph and wireless stations, the object is to wreck and destroy these facilities for the purpose of crippling the hostile military forces.
For instance, Ohlendorf justified the killing of Jews in Russia on the basis that "the number of Jews in the general population in Russia, in relation to their number in the higher administration, was very, very small".

 NARA - IWG - Report on the Otto Ohlendorf IRR File
Otto Ohlendorf, one of the most notorious SS officials in Nazi Germany, was captured and interrogated extensively after the war.
Ohlendorf's unit was responsible for the southern Ukraine including the Crimea, and was responsible for the killing of 90,000 individuals from June 1941 to March 1942.
Ohlendorf said that Gestapo Chief Heinrich Mueller was "ordered to stay in Berlin as long as the FÜHRER remained there, as he shared responsibility for the FÜHRER's safety." Mueller vanished after the war, and for years it was surmised that Mueller offered himself to the U.S. or USSR for intelligence purposes.

DEFENDANT OHLENDORF: First, the Einsatzgruppen and Einsatzkommandos never had the task to eliminate groups of the population because they were racially inferior, and even so that was not the main task.

 The Revisionist Forum :: View topic - SS General Otto Ohlendorf's confession/recantation
SS General Otto Ohlendorf of Einsatzgruppe D, said little girls and boys were killed by rifle fire and gas vans.
The defence strategy was to appeal to German legal principles by which they could not be held responsible for obeying orders - they even asked, failing that, to be tried under the Soviet penal code because it was based on German principles.
Ohlendorf says that he himself did not witness those kinds of shootings - I think he saw a group of partisans being executed (have to check) - so he does not even know himself whether these things are true or not.

 Martin Rudner - THE HOLOCAUST IN BUCZACZ
Four battalion-sized Einsatzgruppen, numbered A through D, were formed by the Nazi SS to accompany the invading combat forces and slaughter Jews, in the first phase of the "Final Solution." Einsatzgruppe D was attached to Eleventh Army assigned to attack the southernmost sector of the Ukrainian front.
Under Ohlendorf's command, Einsatzgruppe D extermination squads brutally shot, bayoneted, burnt, tortured, clubbed to death or buried alive more than 90,000 Jews in the first six months of the campaign.
After the war, in his testimony and affidavit submitted to the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, prior to his execution as a war criminal, Otto Ohlendorf described a typical Einsatzgruppe D killing frenzy.
