Demjanjuk Case May Come Back To The U.S.

TOLEDO -- Attorneys for John Demjanjuk want a Cleveland court to set aside the ruling that led to his deportation and conviction on Nazi war crimes charges, so they can bring the decades-old case back to the United States for an appeal.

The retired Ohio autoworker has had his attorneys in a rush to file new important evidence that shows that the FBI in 1985 believed that Nazi ID card that was used to prove Demjanjuk served as a death guard by the prosecutors was really a Soviet-made fake.

"The government has kept these materials hidden from view," said Demjanjuk's attorneys in a motion filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Cleveland.

...

The motion comes after a federal judge in Cleveland appointed a public defender to represent Demjanjuk and indicated that the lawyer could get Demjanjuk's case back on American soil based on the 1985 FBI report. The judge did add that Demjanjuk should be forced to serve his five-year sentence in Germany though.
