Violette Morris

Description: (French Athlete and Nazi Collaborator)
Violette Morris was a skilled French athlete who gained fame for her achievements at the Women's World Games in 1921–1922, where she won two gold and one silver medal. However, her athletic career was cut short due to her moral transgressions, leading to a ban from competing. Her controversial ties to the Nazis and collaboration with the Vichy France regime during World War II greatly damaged her reputation. Referred to as the "Hyena of the Gestapo," she met a tragic fate at the hands of the French Resistance.
