Assassin of Rome (1x2)

Air date: Dec 08, 2010

Go inside the remarkable story of how Sam Donaldson and an ABC News crew discovered a fugitive WWII war criminal... in a phone book. Erich Priebke was one of Hitlers highest ranking officers in Rome, and he orchestrated the assassination of innocent civilians in Rome. After the war, he escaped and eluded justice for 50 years. See how the journalists staged an elaborate sting operation, confronted Priebke at a school where he was working with young children and got his confession on camera.
