The Trial of the Sixteen (Polish: Proces szesnastu) was a staged trial of 16 leaders of the Polish Secret State held by the Soviet Union in Moscow in 1945.
In February 1945 the Government Delegate, together with most members of the Council of National Unity and the C-i-C of the Armia Krajowa, were invited by Soviet general Ivan Serov on behalf of Joseph Stalin to a conference on their eventual entry to the Soviet-backed Provisional Government.
The trial took place between June 18 and 21, 1945, at the presence of foreign press and observers from the United Kingdom and USA.

Sixteen of Johnson's relatives testified that he came from a broken and abusive home, and that at the age of two he spent two months, often under restraint, in the hospital for an undiagnosed debilitating illness.
At trial, Johnson's counsel failed to object to all of the alleged instances of misconduct except for a disparaging reference to defense counsel.
We consider next whether the trial court lacked subject matter jurisdiction to try the defendant because he was charged with felony murder by an information that did not set forth all of the elements of the underlying felony of rape, and therefore was fatally and jurisdictionally defective under Oklahoma law.

The case was continued on motion of the trial judge, through no fault of the prosecution or defense, because of the judge's scheduling conflicts and the anticipated length of trial.
As to this, the trial court found, "defendant has not been deprived of any defenses available to her and that all potential witnesses for defendant are still available." Defendant appears to concede that there has been no actual impairment of her ability to defend caused by the delay in trial.
While there has been some prejudice to defendant as found by the trial court caused by the delay in her trial, the weight of it in the balancing process is diminished by the absence of any impairment to her defense against the criminal charge and the absence of substantial pretrial incarceration.

The trials also helped expose many of the defendants for the criminals they were, thus denying them a martyrdom in the eyes of the German public that they might otherwise have achieved.
