Roderick Stephen Hall

[edit]

Currently the article states "He was executed by Italy for his role in the Holocaust". This seems to be incorrect, apparently he was executed for his role in the captured OSS agent Roderick Stephen Hall. Unfortunately the CIA does not state names, only mentioned that three were executed for Hall's murder. The German Wikipedia article on Andergassen states he was executed for the murder on Hall, as well as 6 other allied soldiers, alongside August Schiffer and Albert Storz. I havn't been able to verify this through reliable sources however. Turismond (talk) 04:31, 11 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@MPS1992: I missed that contradicting sentence down the bottom! That means the originally article stated that both the Italians and British sentenced him when, according to all sources I viewed and the commons image it was a US tribunal. Hopefully that has been cleared up now. Turismond (talk) 00:45, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Turismond: what was the issue with the source by Messenger? MPS1992 (talk) 01:04, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@MPS1992: It seems to contradict all other ones that I have come across which state something in the line of In January 1946, the four officers accused of Steve's murder were tried before an American Military Commission in Naples, Italy. One was sentenced to life imprisonment and three were hanged. It seems to support an incorrect statement. Turismond (talk) 02:50, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I think if two reliable sources say one thing, and one reliable source says something different, we should simply mention which source says what, rather than making an editorial judgment ourselves about sources being correct or incorrect. MPS1992 (talk) 19:20, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification of page

[edit]

This page really needs to be rewritten...it is currently (as of 03:00, December 18, 2021) in the present tense and the phraseology seems to be that of a translation through multiple languages. Alsebra (talk) 09:01, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
