German Jews convicted of racial turpitude will be sent to the penitentiary until “they realize they must keep away from Aryan women,” the president of the Criminal District Court in Breslau announced today, according to the Associated Press.
One Jew was sentenced to three years’ and another to two years’ imprisonment immediately after the new rule was issued. Until now the judges had the option of sentencing offenders to jail, concentration camp or the penitentiary, or imposing fines.
