The Nazi campaign was one of racial "purification", with those not deemed of proper heritage simply stripped of citizenship. Lacking citizenship, they could no longer apply for the protections afforded citizens - attorneys, a trial, etc. - and could be treated in essence as animals. Like animals, they could be detained, incarcerated, put to work, sterilized, or euthanized at the whim of the government. As far as the Nazis were concerned, concepts of guilt or innocence were no more relevant than if you were talking about an insect infestation or a herd of Army mules.
