It was 30 years ago that John Demjanjuk was stripped of his United States citizenship for "lying about working in Nazi concentration camps," CBS' Cynthia Bowers pointed out. Prosecutors still want to put him on trial. The latest attempt is in the form of an arrest warrant issued in Germany last month. The wheelchairbound 89-year-old Ukrainian native had been carried bodily out of his Cleveland home to stand trial when an appeals court blocked his deportation. Bowers reminded us that Demjanjuk had already been deported to Israel, prosecuted, convicted and sentenced--only to have an appeals court there release him. CBS' in-house legal analyst Andrew Cohen declared: "He has got more due process than any American has gotten, living or dead, in the history of this country."
