Koch married Ilse Köhler with whom he had a son and two daughters. Köhler later became known as “The ***** of Buchenwald. She was tried for war crimes by an American military tribunal in 1947. Prosecuting her was future United States Court of Claims Judge Robert L. Kunzig. She was charged with ”participating in a criminal plan for aiding, abetting and participating in the murders at Buchenwald.” The tribunal found Koch guilty and sentenced her to life imprisonment. After she had served two years, General Lucius D. Clay, the interim military governor of the American Zone in Germany, pardoned her. Owing to international condemnation, however, Koch was re-arrested in 1949 and tried before a West German court for instigation to murder in 135 cases. She was sentenced to life imprisonment on January 15, 1951. She committed suicide by hanging herself at Aichach women’s prison on September 1, 1967 sodahead/united-states/does-it-surprise-you-to-discover-that-the-kochs-have-a-nazi-past/question-3348581/?link=ibaf&q=The+Zuck+is+obviously+more+concerned+about+the+%22Need+for+Greed%22+of+the+oil+and+gas+industry+and+MUCH+LESS+interested+in+the+health+and+welfare+of+the+people+who+have+made+him+a+billionaire.
