A survivor of years of living hell in the holocaust...
After surviving years of living hell during the holocaust over sixty years ago... After surviviving the living hell of the holocaust over sixty years ago, an 80 year old survivor, Katherine Schweitzer, was found strangled to death in a wheelie bin near her Bellevue Hill unit for senior citizens in Sydney late last year. What a shocking and inauspicious end to a concentration camp survivor who outlasted every conceivable inhumanity the SS guards dished out to her. As they would say in Sydney, what a great little Aussie battler! This poor old widow with no known living relatives in Australia deserved a better end than that! Nobody to fend for her, nobody to protect her from such brutal human trash in her latter years. She survived the terrors of a Nazi concentration camp to end up 10,000 miles away like some discarded piece of trash - it just wasn't fair; but life is not always fair, is it? Police described the killing as "callous and bizarre", with no obvious motive. The Police are seeking a man in his 20's near the unit block where Mrs Schweitzer met her extremely sad end to her long life on this planet. Submitted by flyswatter on Fri, 2007-01-12 07:36.
It's hard to say anything that seems appropriate about an act as depraved as this. You summed it up I think, when you said that life is not always fair. Flyswatter Xomba Moderator

Depraved is a good word. I just can't understand such acts; robbery, yes! But such a lack of basic human empathy! I'm getting on myself, and it makes me wonder a little. Our elderly folk, in whatever country, city or town, need somebody to keep an eye on them. Somebody just to call around a couple of times a week to say hello, and to be a contact for those elderly people if they need one. She may have seen somebody hanging around but had nobody to confide in! PJP
