Eichmann worked for Mercedes in a plant in Buenos Aires.
Rauff lived under his own name in Chile.
Stangl went to Brazil.
South America was an incredibly common destination for Nazis. Yes, so was the US - typically mid-level or so Nazis with connections that would spy for years before being allowed into the US, a reward for service as it were.
But South America was popular for Nazis who fled, the US was popular with Nazis who surrendered and got put to work.
Not that I agree with the decision but that’s not the same thing.
