After the failure of the coup attempt he feared that his arrest by the Gestapo was imminent and that he might be forced to implicate other plotters.

In late February 1943 Otto Bräutigam of the Reich Ministry for the Occupied Eastern Territories had the opportunity to read a personal report by Wagner about a discussion with Heinrich Himmler, in which Himmler had expressed the intention to kill about 80% of the populations of France and England by special forces of the SS after the German victory.
