Dr Wolfgang Scheffler (born 22 July 1929 in Leipzig – died 18 November 2008 in Berlin) was a graduate and later, Professor of Political Science and History at the Free University of Berlin.[1] In the 1960s, he was engaged in massive research of the Third Reich National Socialist policy toward the Jews in unpublished archival material, on behalf of Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG). He was a member of the German delegation at the Eichmann trial.[2] In 1969, at the second Treblinka trial Scheffler submitted his expert opinion based on new evidence, estimating the total number of persons killed at the Treblinka extermination camp to be around 900,000 victims.[3]
