Benedikt Waldeck (1802–1870, in Berlin) was a left-leaning deputy in the Prussian National Assembly and later in the Second Chamber. In May 1849 he was arrested in Berlin for high treason, but was acquitted in December.[1] Sir John Retcliffe (real name: Hermann Goedsche) was centrally involved in a forgery scandal to discredit Waldeck and then lost his government position for his criminal participation. Waldeck is an important figure in German constitutional history.
