Who was the most Evil person in the Third Reich

Just curious to know who you think was the most despicable member of the Nazi Regime apart from Adolf Hitler. I have omitted him because of the fact that he would win hands down. But after him who was the most evil? It does not have to have been someone who was particularly high ranking - I'd be interested to see what you think. I have included a number of candidates but feel free to vote for other - and name your person and give your

Which one was in charge of Belsen? I can never remember, but negotiating for a safe exit whilst everyone is being killed and dying inside certainly shows a cold blooded B*****d to me.
