Death Wish dad found dead
croatiantimes.com
A Death Wish dad who gunned down a judge and his accomplice after they raped his four year old daughter has been found dead, say police.
Police in Lithuania said the body of Drasius Kedys was discovered 30km from his home town of Kaunas and has been identified by members of his family.
They did not, however, give a cause of death and an autopsy will be held on Saturday.
Kedys, 37, had been missing since he shot judge Jonas Furmanaviczius, 47, and a female accomplice seven months ago after police ignored his pleas for help when his daughter Deimantela was abused by a paedophile ring.
Police believed he'd spent several months in Britain posing as a migrant worker and earlier this month released new artists impressions of what he could look like now.
Kedys became a cult hero across Europe with websites formed to support him and souvenir T-shirts and mugs dubbing him: "Drasius - Lone Avenger."

Kedys and those two paedophyles were killed by paedophyles-clan, that includes politicians, prosecutors, judges, state security and others. It is unbelievable, what is going on here in Lithuania. General prosecutor giggles while reporting about Kedys' death. Kedys body is obviously beaten, but procecutors deny it. They were hiding, that they have found Kedys' body and wanted to bury him as unindentified person. It's terrible. We do not have law in Lithuania. Our president says, that no-one to whom she spoke admits to become general prosecutor.

It is exactly the same in Scotland, just as corrupt. That's why I left the place! Google 'Hollie Greig' and read all about how a young girl with Down's Syndrome was abused by Policemen, Social Workers and even a Sheriff. They will lie, cheat and steal to cover up their vile actions, but sometimes choose the wrong people to mess with as we can see here. RIP Drasius, you are my hero.
