context: At the Nuremberg Trial, Göring was the highest ranking National Socialist convicted. During the trial, she got rid of her morphine addiction, lost nearly 20 kilograms, and revived her sharp intelligence. Prior to the trial, American psychiatrist Douglas Kelley conducted an intelligence test on accused Nazis and Göring received 138 points (high intelligence). [12] He spoke quite skillfully in the trial and defended himself to the end, but was eventually sentenced to death. However, the night before his execution, he managed to commit suicide with cyanide and thus avoided hanging. He died at the age of 53. Still not sure if Göring was carrying the cyanide capsule all the time or whether someone else was poisoning him. It is alleged that cyanide was delivered to him with the assistance of a German girlfriend of the American Military Police. Göring himself says in his latest letter that he brought three cyanide capsules to prison. He hid one capsule in a cream jar. He hid the other capsule in the cell but always kept one capsule on the sock during the trials. The third capsule was hidden by Göring in his clothes, and of course it was found during the body examination. This was the intention, to think that he had no cyanide left.
