| - Otto Rothstock fut l'assassin de Hugo Bettauer. Jeune membre du parti nazi, Rothstock ne supportait pas la satire que Bettauer faisait de l'antisémitisme nazi dans son roman La ville sans juifs. Le 10 mars 1925, Rothstock se rendit au bureau de Bettauer et lui tira cinq coups de feu à bout portant. Hugo Bettauer mourut de ses blessures le 26 mars. À son procès, Rothstock justifia son acte par la nécessité de préserver la culture allemande de la menace juive. Il fut jugé mentalement irresponsable de ses actes, et libéré après seulement 18 mois d'emprisonnement. (fr)

At his trial, Rothstock justified what he had done as necessary to save European culture from the menace of degeneration. His lawyer, Walter Riehl, (himself a National Socialist functionary) argued that his client was guilty but insane, with which the jury agreed. However, within twenty months Rothstock was released as “cured” from a mental hospital. A fair amount of money was collected from the general public for him. Rothstock was an unrepentant Nazi. In a 1977 interview on the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation, Rothstock reportedly boasted of Bettauer's "extinction". (en)
