The backstory is that it was a rich guy whose house was a Hitler shrine and was in bed with neo nazis

Believable, but you got any source on that claim?

I was going by memory. The Wikipedia page on him gives a rundown but doesn't mention much about affiliations with neo-nazis.

The last part of this article does. I guess it would be safer to call them unconfirmed allegations but fuck him

During the search of his property, the police found an underground nuclear shelter, which was built during the Cold War and equipped with Nazi insignia.

Usually Non-Nazis do not decorate their underground nuclear shelters with Nazi insignia.

Really? I'm going to need to give my interior decorator a call. I was assure this was where the market was headed.

I mean the market does seem to be headed that way in America…

"Ten years later, local authorities were again tipped off after officials in Berlin searched the home for stolen Nazi art. During their search, they also came upon busts of Hitler, an Arno Breker bronze statue of a nude man that was reportedly once outside Hitler’s Reich Chancellery, mannequins outfitted in Nazi uniforms, swastika pendants, a V-1 rocket replica, and SS rune-shaped lamps."

A German owning war memorabilia has a high likelihood of being a nazi.

I feel like that is some quite important information what was missed out...
