Yachtsman Lord Shawcross, the prosecutor who brought 10 leading Nazis to the gallows after World War II at the Nuremberg trials, has died at the age of 101.
Shawcross was a member of the Royal Yacht Squadron, the Royal Cornwall Yacht Club and the New York Yacht Club.
He is survived by a widow Monique, his third wife, and by the daughter and two sons from his second marriage, one of whom is the top political writer William Shawcross.
