Leuchter Report

The Leuchter Report was a document published in 1988 by Fred Leuchter, a consulting engineer, claiming to analyze the gas chambers at Holocaust Auschwitz. He presented forensic evidence suggesting the facilities couldn't have been used for mass executions as described by historical accounts. However, his methods and conclusions have been widely discredited by experts, who criticized his lack of proper scientific procedures and understanding of Holocaust history. The report is often cited by Holocaust denial groups, but it is considered pseudoscientific and unreliable by the scholarly community.
