When the trials were not in session, the US government advised witnesses to find employment or face repatriation to Germany after the completion of their testimony. If the Justice Department required their services in a future trial, they would be brought back to the United States at government expense. For instance, Inga Doman found work as a governess in South Carolina and Adelbert Houben, who testified in the Chandler and Best trials as well, worked in a factory.
