Description
In the midst of the frigid winter, starving and freezing prisoners were marched by their Nazi guards at a frantic pace to their places of work to engage in grueling labor while being beaten mercilessly, and many died on the way. One such prisoner turned to his companion and asked him to violently shove him to the ground repeatedly in order to hasten his demise and spare him from further suffering. The individual, out of compassion, did so, and the individual eventually collapsed and died. After the liberation, searching for someone who could serve as the Shaliach Tzibbur for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, the perpetrator was identified as the most appropriate Baal Tefilla. Could he serve in this role after causing the death of a fellow Jew?
