Video of Demjanjuk: walks without assistance
Videos of John Demjanjuk walking briskly indicate he is healthier than he has claimed and is fit to be deported to Germany for helping the Nazis kill Jews, federal prosecutors said late Thursday.Prosecutors released tapes that show the 89-year-old Demjanjuk getting in and out of a car without help April 6 -- a contrast, authorities say, to the man who groaned in apparent pain as agents carried him from his home April 14 in a wheelchair. The agents were prepared to place him on a plane to Munich that night, but the 6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in Cincinnati granted a last-minute reprieve after agents had taken him from his home. The case is pending on whether Demjanjuk should remain with his family because of health problems. The videos add to the white-hot debate over whether Demjanjuk, who suffers chronic kidney disease and anemia, should be deported for his wartime past or stay with his family in Seven Hills.
