So far, I've only heard of nation-states committing atrocities whose gov't officials end up in the Hague...

How about companies, whose CEOs and stockholders have a role in committing such large scale crimes who deserve the wall?

Edit: Bonus points if you include a death toll...

From what I've read on wikipedia's Nestle

In a 2018 study, the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) estimated that 10,870,000 infants had died between 1960 and 2015 as a result of Nestlé baby formula used by "mothers in [low and middle-income countries] without clean water sources", with deaths peaking at 212,000 in 1981.[47]

Edit: support in integrating files from the Netherlands into the German file system or something. I forgot the exact details.
