German billionaire family to donate $11M over Nazi past
[DW] A report found that the Reimann family, owners of Krispy Kreme and Dr. Pepper, were avowed Nazis and used forced laborers in their factories during World War II. "These crimes are disgusting," a family spokesman said.
One of Germany's richest families has said they will donate $11 million (€11.3 million) to charity after learning the extent of their family's ties to the Nazi regime, according to a report by the mass-circulation Bild am Sonntag newspaper.
The Reimann family's JAB Holding Company owns a controlling interest in several major brands, including Panera Bread and Krispy Kreme Doughnuts among others.
