'Sadistic' Nazi War Criminal Laszlo Csatary, 97, Lived Openly in Budapest

One of World War II's most sadistic Nazis lived openly in Budapest in recent years, but has apparently slipped into hiding as an international manhunt closed in on him.
Laszlo Csatary, now 97, has been convicted in absentia and sentenced to death for his role in sending nearly 16,000 Jews to their deaths.
"He was particularly sadistic," said Peter Feldmajer, the president of the Jewish community in Hungary. "He created a camp for torturing the rich so they would confess where they have hidden the money."
Laszlo Karsai, Hungary's top holocaust historian whose grandmother died in Auschwitz, said Csatary was "very sadistic."
