    Title:

    The identification of Josef Mengele A triumph of international cooperation.[Article]

    Source:American Journal of Forensic Medicine & Pathology. 6(3):188-191, September 1985.
    Abstract:In recent weeks, world attention has been focused on the identification of skeletal remains suspected of being those of the most widely sought Nazi war criminal still at large-Josef Mengele. Several important turns in the investigation of his whereabouts led to a small city south of Sao Paulo, where he had been living until 1979. Mengele was reported to have drowned and to have been buried in a country cemetery near his last residence.

    The initial processing of the remains was done at the Medicolegal Institute of Sao Paulo by police officials in consultation with anthropologists and dentists as well as Dr. Wilmes Teixeira of Mogi das Cruzes, a suburb of Sao Paulo. Dr. Teixeira coordinated the team of authorized international forensic experts officially representing the governments of West Germany and the United States, as well as the Simon Wiesenthal Center of Los Angeles, who joined Brazilian scientists in completing identification. The success of the investigation was due to complete cooperation among members of the team, resulting in verification, within a reasonable scientific certainty, that these were the remains of Josef Mengele.
