Carl Hans Heinze Sennhenn

Carl "Hans Heinze" Sennhenn was a Nazi German psychiatrist and eugenicist.

Hans Heinze was the director of the mental institution Heilanstalt Brandenburg-Goerden, where he supervised the murder by injection, starvation and poisoning of thousands of children whose brains he then supplied to Nazi researchers. He also trained physicians for the T-4 Euthanasia Program.

Historian Dr. Klaus-Dieter Müller of the Saxony memorial sites archive in Dresden, Germany requested that Hans Heinze be rehabilitated despite the fact that he had murdered so many.

Hans Heinze was tried and found guilty of war crimes and received a prison term of seven years. After his release from prison, he became chief physician for adolescent psychiatry at Wunstdorf State Hospital.
