I am currently in the process of watching Shoah, and I've noticed a pattern: many people interviewed (nazis, civilians, and Jews alike) seem to remark quite a bit about Latvian police during the Holocaust being "the worst" or 'the most barbaric" however they didn't really go into detail on why they felt as such. I was wondering if this was mostly coincidence, mere propaganda, or if this was common opinion during the time period. If so, why?
