Victims of the Night of the Long Knives

During the Purge itself official radio and newspaper reports only gave the names of ten people killed (the six SA-leaders executed in Stadelheim Prison on June 30, Schleicher and his wife, Karl Ernst—who was wrongly reported to have been shot in Stadelheim, whereas in fact he was shot in the barracks of Hitler's Personal Guard Unit in Berlin Lichterfelde—and Ernst Röhm).
