Alice Orlowski (30 September 1903 – 21 May 1976)[1] was a German concentration camp guard at several of the Nazi concentration camps in German-occupied Poland (1939-1945) during World War II.[2] After the war, a Polish court convicted of her crimes against humanity, and she served 10 years in prison in Poland. In 1973, Orlowski, now 70 and living as a pensioner in West Germany, muttered that only "half the work" had been finished, referring to the Holocaust. She was promptly arrested, convicted of making antisemitic remarks, and sentenced to 10 months in prison.
