Walther Stutzman

Walther Stutzman was the husband of Esther Stutzman, and the father of Anna and Gottlieb. He and the rest of he family were secretly Jews living in Berlin. He and his family were present when their friends, the Gimpels, also Jews, informed their eldest daughter Alicia of her true heritage.

Stutzman worked for Weiss, the Greater German Reich's computer manufacturer and programmer. Stutzman had various access codes and backdoor entrances to the state's computers. Many of these had been created by Stutzman's father. In his position, Stutzman was able to keep himself and his fellow Jews hidden, and spy on the activities of the Reich.

When Jewish infant Paul Klein was diagnosed with Tay-Sachs disease, a fact that threatened to reveal his family, Stutzman created a new geneology for them, which his wife, Esther, added to the family's file. Stutzman also spied on the SS's efforts to discredit Fuhrer Heinz Buckliger's efforts at reform. When the SS initiated a Putsch, Stutzman used his access to circulate the rumor that the head of the SS, Lothar Prutzman, was himself Jewish. This rumor stymied the Putsch until the Wermacht moved against the SS.
