Even today, his name inspires horror and hatred. Josef Mengele, the twisted doctor infamous for torturing the prisoners of the Auschwitz concentration camp with his deadly human experiments. After WWII, he was hunted down by the Allies in a 34-year-long manhunt criss-crossing the globe. To no avail…
