Leaving Queens: A Nazi’s Long Flight From Justice Ends

EDS. RETRANSMISSION TO CLARIFY LOCATION *** Reporters near the home of Jakiw Palij in Queens, Aug. 21, 2018. Palij, a former Nazi guard, lived a quiet life in New York City for decades, having lied on his U.S. immigration papers in 1949 about the type of work he did during World War II. But on Tuesday, he was deported to Germany, ending a 14-year battle to remove him from American soil. (Elias Williams/The New York Times)
