    of Jesus Christ‚ Joan of Arc and the Nuremberg Trials. However‚ one strange thing about these cases is that they did not always have the same outcome for the “criminal”. In Jesus and Joan’s situation they are both considered heroes‚ and are sacred for the work they did spreading their beliefs. However‚ in the case of the Nuremberg Trials‚ the German soldiers are accused of horrendous war crimes committed during World War II. Yet these actions were‚ just like that of Jesus and Joan‚ all in the name
