Behind the windows of this beautiful villa on the shore of the Wannsee in Berlin, fifteen men met on the morning of Tuesday, January 20, 1941. 
Ten of the fifteen were university graduates. Eight of them had doctorates. Eight of them had studied law. One of them died as recently as 1987, having - unbelievably - successfully practiced law in post-war West Germany.
At the end of their 90-minute meeting, having agreed responsibilities which they believed and hoped would lead to the deaths of up to 11 million Jewish men, women and children, under the leadership of Reinhard Heydrich, the men enjoyed a hearty buffet breakfast.

1942. Damn.
And here is the 1987 death notice for the last of the fifteen to die. Klopfer reported directly to Martin Bormann in the Parteikanzlei and was an SS-Gruppenfũhrer (Major-General). But was not prosecuted after war die to 'lack of evidence.'
