Fritz Bauer, 'Zu den Naziverbrecher Prozessen', in Stimme der Gemeinde turn Kirchlichen Leben, zur Politik, Wirtschaft und Kultur, 18 (Sept. 1963), p. 568. Fritz Bauer was the decisive force that shaped the trial. Bauer, a German Jew who had lived in exile during the Nazi period and who led the public prosecutor's office in Frankfurt after the war, made it his lifelong mission to bring to justice the perpetrators of the Nazi genocide. In this respect Bauer was an exception in the legal system, as his intentions were not strictly judicial but more broadly historical as well. Quite explicitly, beyond his concern with individual cases, Bauer wanted to take to task a whole era, an entire ideology. Bauer saw this trial as something quite removed from a normal criminal trial. Indeed, it would have been most difficult for anyone following the pre-trial investigations and the proceedings themselves to view this as a typical trial, for sitting on the defendants' bench were twenty men involved in mass murder and genocide, in state-sanctioned and ordered systematic killing at a death camp. Bauer saw the trial as an opportunity for Germany to confront its past and to examine its relationship to the Nazi period

According to Krausnick, Buchheim, Broszat and Jacobsen, Auschwitz in particular fell under the jurisdiction of both offices (which often had conflicting aims) as it was both a deportation camp for the Jews (controlled by the RSHA) and a massive slave labour camp (controlled by the WVHA).
