because According to several estimates the Nazi Commandant of Auschwitz Rudolf Hoess was responsible for exterminating millions of people.By mid 1942, Rudolf Hoess started mass gassing of Jews using Zyklon-B at Auschwitz, where extermination was conducted on an industrial scale with some estimates running as high as 2,5 million persons eventually killed through gassing, starvation, disease, shooting, and burning

I think that the question refers to Hoess' stint in prison in 1924. It was for a rather brutal murder of a former teacher who was suspected of starting a communist group.
