nypost.com • • world
Key Points:
- Newly uncovered evidence suggests Adolf Hitler's niece, Angela "Geli" Raubal, may have been killed by Hitler himself, challenging the official ruling of her 1931 death as a suicide.
- Historian Harald Sandner found records indicating Raubal's body was discovered on September 18, 1931, when Hitler was still in Munich, contradicting the previous account that he was in Nuremberg at the time.
- Hitler’s gun was found near Raubal’s body, and the two reportedly had a heated argument shortly before her death, fueling speculation about a possible murder and an alleged incestuous relationship.
- Some historians, including Guy Walters and Heike B. Görtemaker, dispute these claims, attributing the date discrepancy to a transcription error and expressing skepticism about the nature of Hitler and Raubal's relationship.
- If proven true, Raubal could be the only person Adolf Hitler personally killed, despite his responsibility for millions of deaths during his dictatorship.
