Wolf Rüdiger Hess (November 18, 1937—October 24, 2001) was the son of Rudolf Hess. An outspoken critic of the investigation of his father's 1987 death, he maintained to his dying day that the British SAS murdered his father to prevent his parole (which many thought was imminent). Wolf was sure that the murder was committed because the British were afraid that his father would reveal embarrassing information about British actions during the war, if he was allowed to speak freely.
