ローラント・フライスラー
The outcome of this trial caused Hitler to remove treason trials from the regular courts. He decreed that henceforth treason—among many other offenses—would only be tried by a newly established People's Court ("Volksgerichtshof"). The People's Court later became associated with the number of death sentences it handed down, including those following the 1944 attempt to assassinate Hitler, which were presided over by then Judge-President Roland Freisler.
