   Archival documents challenge alibi in death of Hitler's niece

   Newly uncovered archival documents suggest Adolf Hitler may have murdered his niece, Geli Raubal, in 1931. While her death in his Munich apartment was officially ruled a suicide, new evidence raises questions about Hitler's alibi and indicates a possible cover up. Some reports claim the body was discovered a day earlier than previously stated, contradicting the official timeline and suggesting Hitler lied about his whereabouts at the time of death.

   Why it matters

   Geli Raubal was the 23-year-old half-niece of the Nazi leader. This case examines whether Hitler personally committed a murder, distinct from the millions killed by his regime.
