dubious evidence? As they could not prove that he killed someone himself, the whole trial was about assistance to murder in 28060 cases.

In the absence of specific evidence against him, the case against Mr. Demjanjuk rested on the prosecution’s charge that anyone working at the camp at the time he was there shared responsibility for its function of systematic murder.

And this is what the prosecution did prove in the trial.
And no, a prison sentence for an old man is not a death penalty. He could likely die in prison but he won't be killed
by the prison - but by his age.
Prison is not worse than an old people's home for him - 3 meals a day, no labour, medical assistance, visitation hours, etc.
He already survided 2 years in custody - longer than most people in Sobibor.
