Klaus Barbie Exposed by Fake Interview

Klaus Barbie, a Nazi war criminal hiding in Bolivia after World War II, was tricked into revealing his true identity during a fake interview by being asked a question in French, a language he wasn't supposed to understand. The United States government directly facilitated Barbie's escape from the law and protected him, despite France's criminal charges against him. As a result, Barbie did not stand trial in France in 1950, spending 33 years as a free man and fugitive from justice.
