The Belsen Trial did not institute the charges of "Crimes Against Humanity". These were first introduced in the subsequent Nuremburg trials. Check your sources, or consult the online version of Raymond Phillip's "The Belsen Trial", which gives a close account of the proceedings: http://www.ess.uwe.ac.uk/WCC/belsen1.htm

This is my first ever excusion into Wikipedia. I added the facts of the "second Belsen Trial" because my family and I were there and my father, Karl Hess was a witness for the prosecution at that trial. I have the complete transcript from which the information is taken.
