00:00In April 1945, Heinrich Muller was one of the most powerful men in Nazi Germany.
00:05Then Berlin fell, and he simply vanished.
00:08Muller ran the Gestapo.
00:10He signed the deportation orders that sent hundreds of thousands to death camps.
00:14He sat at the Wansi Conference, where the Holocaust was formally organized.
00:18He was in the Fuhrerbunker in the final days of the war.
00:21Then he walked out, and was never seen again.
00:23No body, no grave, no confirmed escape route.
00:27In 1963, investigators opened a grave in Berlin with his name attached.
00:32The skeleton inside was the wrong age.
00:35Declassified CIA documents from 1948 reference and East German intelligence contact matching his exact profile.
00:42Here is what makes this disturbing.
00:43Muller knew more about Soviet spy networks inside Western intelligence than almost anyone alive.
00:49That knowledge made him extraordinarily valuable.
00:52To everyone.
00:53Every other senior Nazi was found, tried, or hunted down.
00:57Muller was never any of those things.
00:59The man who built the machinery of Nazi terror may have simply been absorbed by the winning side.
01:05And no one has ever proven otherwise.
