Message to the Lithuanian government: Game Over!

Dont you see that the game is over for you? Dont you realise that there is no way back this time? You cannot stop what you have started. You cannot reverse it. This is your end. But we think you realise this and this is why you are afraid.
("You" here means ONLY the corrupt members of the government, and their friends in the Security Service, police, judiciary, business, media and state institutions, which we cannot name here.)

You have tried to divide the Lithuanian society, to brainwash the people that corruption is 'imaginary', that the people protesting against corruption and child abuse are "delusional" and 'malicious', a 'madding crowd'. But it has backfired.

You censor the media, you threaten and you lie. But you must know that whatever you do in the future will only fuel the anger and rage against you. Until you fall. And that is inevitable.

The Lithuanian society is uniting against you, people are cleverer than you thought, they can see through the lies and deceptions. They have united and risen faster more decisively than you had expected. You thought they are sheep, who will swallow the propaganda, be scared with prosecution and threatened into staying home. So you can continue with your corruption, child abuse, the abuse of power and the other businesses you trade in on the side - you know what we are talking about.

Yes, you think you can. We know what you think: you think you are impossible to defeat, because you own the state, your people hold power in every area of the state, powerful (corrupt) people who depend on each other to survive - and the support of the CIA. Without the support of the CIA and the American government, you will be nothing. You will instantly fall.

CIA has often supported losers in the past.  Maybe it is time to change sides?

Maybe it is time for the Americans to find someone else to support? Because you are finished. And everything you do will lead to that end.  Every step to take: to suppress protesters, to eliminate Neringa, to punish people, to censure, threaten etc. Nothing can help you. You know that. It is plain and clear to see. If you dont see it, you are trully delusional.

It is over.

You think you can cover up the abuse of small children - and get away with it?
You think you can corrupt the judiciary, lie, cover up murders and abuse, put honest people in jail and get away with it?
You think you can deceive and manipulate the population with the media you control - and just go on?
You think you can destroy anyone who dares to oppose you - and just go on?
You think you can divide Lithuanian society, prosecute peaceful demonstrators, destroy innocent lives - and just move on?
You think you can silence anyone anywhere, scare people from expressing their opinions, remove and delete - just because you have sold yourself to the Americans, like a whore? 

Your problem is that CIA will not support losers and suffer an embarrassment - yet again. And it is time for the Americans to find a winner to support. Because this time the line is crossed, the current political system cannot be sustained. And the more you push it, the sooner you will collapse. And the collapse will bury all of you. You cannot stay in power.

Our advice and personal opinion as non-partial observers: leave the ship and run.

And for the supporters: put yourself on the right side of history.

This is the end.

Interview Neringa Venckiene: I go into politics

Neringa Venckiene: The Fight for the Girl is not Over yet

1. (Translation from Lithuanian;  posted in “Respublika” by Sidas Aksomaitis on 26 May 2012)
2.  
3. This week’s “Respublika” person of the week – Kaunas District Civil Court judge Neringa Venckiene, who after several years of fighting for his brother’s Drasius Kedys daughter has lost the girl and is feeling severe pressure from politicians and juridical system officers, but who still believes, that her fight is not over yet.
4.  
5.  
6. Journalist: Do you feel defeated after the fight with the system that has taken away the girl and now has intentions to put you behind bars?
7.  
8. Neringa Venckiene: If we look at it as a whole, then it is all so horrible and disgusting, but I have put up with and suffered so much in these last four years, that it does not even bother me too much that they have plans to take away my  immunity. I am much more scared for the girl, because they took her away as a thing, only that “thing” was shouting and screaming… I cannot find proper words to describe how the child rights representatives were behaving in and after this situation.
9.  
10. After the abduction of the girl, I was writing every single day to the Kaunas District and Kaunas City child rights specialists, asking to bind Laima Stankunaite to allow me to see my niece. From Kaunas District child rights I found out that my requests have been sent to Kaunas City child rights protection department, and from this department’s head Bitute Daugeliene I got an answer, that my requests “will be decided upon according to the existing laws and regulations”. This is how the child rights work here…
11.  
12. Only because of such bureaucrats I will fight that each and every one of them would be punished. The girl lived in my home for the last four years, was healed from the perverts’ abuse with all my effort, and now they even do not allow me to see her!
13.  
14.  
15. Journalist: Why prosecutors are so eagerly attacking you, while they take upon the ones who wasted millions through their criminal activities only after long convincing?
16.  
17. Neringa Venckiene: They are afraid of me – even in the Parliament everyone is terrified from the thought that I might go into politics. I can tell you, that I do not need their politics, but I will never back down.  And while not giving up I have no other choice – only to become a politician. I need this in order that the politicians of today, who are trying their best to put me behind bars, would be held responsible for their own violations and criminal acts. For this very reason – I have no other choice. And they are very well aware of this, they expect me to enter politics and that is why they are trying to eliminate me in all possible ways.
18.  
19. It is hard to say what kind of influence politicians have on the prosecutors, but the prosecutor general, Darius Valys, showed not his best side in his appeal to the parliament.
20.  
21. I definitely had a better opinion about D. Valys – I thought that an officer from a province will not be corrupt and will be trying to make changes in the system, but now it is clear, that he is singing to the same tune of Kestutis Betingis and Algimantas Kliunka , and others sympathizing with them.
22.  
23.  
24. Journalist: Is it possible to reach that the system would investigate the crime instead of dragging the person who reported the crime from court room to court room?
25.  
26. Neringa Venckiene: After what has happened to our family, I would never do as we did. I have learned my lesson. Now they blame me that I have said that there is no justice and this country is not a juridical country…Until this tragedy came upon our family, I was completely convinced that there is justice in this country. For this very reason, I helped my brother to fight according to the laws. But now, I would never ever ask for help from such system – I do not need any help neither from the prosecutors’ office, nor courts. I used all possible juridical means to protect the girl, but still could not reach that the guilty ones would be punished and the murderer of my brother Drasius would be indentified. Now the only way to attain this is to go into parliament. If ones dare to kill, others dare to drag the girl by force while breaking my arms, it means they can do anything.
27.  
28.  
29. Journalist: What do you think an ordinary person should do to receive justice?
30.  
31. Neringa Venckiene: We need to unite and swipe out the Parliament and the juridical system, and start all over again from the scratch, because it is impossible to live anymore with what we have now. There are no words to describe the level of corruption in Lithuania today. There are only few just and decent people in today’s ruling power and juridical system, but the remaining mass is horrifying. Those corrupt should not even dream that people do not know about their criminal acts – Lithuania is small, here everyone knows who takes bribes, and who doesn’t. Everyone knows the names of the officers that can be bribed and even the sums of money they ask.
32.  
33.  
34. Journalist: So what is the reason that everything stays as it is except for a few sacrifices and the judges still claim they are impeccable even though people know who is corrupted?
35.  
36. Neringa Venckiene: This is the practice of the head of the Lithuanian Highest Court (LAT) Gintaras Kryzevicius, when those who sympathize with him get one kind of treatment, and those who have opposing views are treated differently. I am from the latter ones, that’s why I am getting disciplinary warnings one after another. After more than ten years of practice as a judge, I have not received even one complaint or warning for not performing my duties properly. I am getting so many of them only now, when I am doing all I can to protect my niece from the perverts. Even the opinion of the committee of judges matches that of Laima Stankunaite. What I think is that we now have Lithuania of many Stankunaite – in parliament, in courts and in prosecutors’ office.
37.  
38.  
39. Journalist: You say that people should unite and fight the system, but as you remember the protest in front of the parliament that was organized by Romualdas Ozolas and Bronislovas Genzelis, the signatories of the Independence Restitution Act, has showed that  initiatives like that can lead to endless days in court rooms.
40.  
41. Neringa Venckiene: This is utterly shocking. So why don’t they give permits to allow protests and gatherings? Why the politicians that have been elected by people do not want to hear those very people? They need to allow express the opinion publicly, since in no other democratic country no one opposes the protests. I think the main reason is that the ones in ruling power are afraid of honest people who could replace all the corrupt ones. Let’s put together all the judges, politicians, police heads – and you will see that their number is nothing compared to the number of ordinary people. If all those people would unite and rise up to the fight against the corrupt system – what we see happening today would come to an end very quickly. That is why they are doing all they can so that the society remains divided.
42.  
43. Two disciplinary cases, which were raised against Neringa Venckiene by the Judges’ Ethics and Disciplinary Committee, have been analyzed by Judges’ Honor Court yesterday and united into one disciplinary case.
44. The Judges’ Honor Court will announce on 22nd June if they will propose to the president Dalia Grybauskaite to terminate Neringa Venckiene.
45. One of the cases that had been raised against Neringa Venckiene was for the incident that happened on 9th January in Garliava Family Clinic, where Neringa Venckiene was trying with no success to get a health check-up certificate for the homeschooling program for her niece. As Neringa Venckiene claims, the GP had registered her niece with the doctors’ committee for consultation, but the doctors would not even agree to see the girl.
46. Another case was raised after the Bailiffs’ Presidium has reported that the judge (Neringa Venckiene) was asking for the bailiff Sonata Vaicekauskiene, who was hiding the details of the second attempt to take away the girl, to be filmed day and night.
47. (prepared by the daily newspaper “Respublika”)

Neringa Venckiene: For President!

Neringa Venckiene stands for freedom, justice and courage! Dalia Grybauskaite, the former Communist Party member and current president stands for fear and corruption. Dalia Grybauskaite did not interfere to stop police and armed Special Forces from brutally taking the girl Deimante Kedyte from her safe home, where she wanted to stay "forever". Why? Because Dalia is afraid. She is afraid of the Secret Services and her own party. She is afraid to stand up against them and against corruption. Instead she let them destroy the life of this girl and her aunt.

Now, she is also afraid of the people's anger at the injustice and terror being done to this girl and her aunt.

Neringa Venckiene is the future, Dalia Grybauskaite is the Communist past. Which one do you choose?

Who is Afraid of Neringa Venckiene?

by Anonymous

Lithuania used to be a country of knights. It used to be strong, independent, rich and proud. Also, it used to be Soviet Union province, exploited and terrorised. Now it is shaken by the biggest paedophile scandal and the most brutal cover up operation Europe has ever seen. An operation, which has already taken the lives of 9 people, and destroyed many more. But this is only the beginning. The scandal is so huge, and the assault on ordinary citizens so massive that European media refuse to report it for fear to inflict an even greater damage – on themselves and to the tiny country. For fear, what a thorough investigation might reveal.

This article is an attempt to explain how one woman – Neringa Venckiene – and a little girl, her niece became an enemy of the state of Lithuania. And to look at how the resources of that state, of all its institutions, are deployed towards one goal – to destroy her.

I do not know Neringa Venckiene, and I do not live in Lithuania. I have researched this case independently, not in association with any media or institution. I tried several times to put this case away, to continue going about my daily business and forget about it. But I found it impossible to put away. I found the injustice done to Deimante Kedyte, her aunt Neringa Venckiene and her family impossible to bear. My motive to spend time on writing this article is that I - after having examined the facts and studied the case for some months and through various sources – as a human being and as a European find this injustice impossible to bear: 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N4yURmXyU4. I do not speak Lithuanian, but the images can make anyone cry with anger: How can this happen in Europe today? Is this how we want a European country to treat European citizens, especially vulnerable children and old people?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N4yURmXyU4

How can Lithuania get away with this?

How can ordinary people become a target of such an unprecedented and massive government attack? Attack by police and Special Forces? How can an ordinary woman, a judge, a mother, and a good citizen, respected by the community, her neighbours, a woman who has done nothing wrong or illegal, but to protect the a child that clings on her neck and asks for protection, the child of her murdered brother – how can this woman do something wrong? This child has endured constant attacks from state institutions, including her being kidnapped on the way from kindergarten and drugging her at a mental institution for a week. Why has Neringa Venckiene, and not the people who caused this girl so much trauma, why has she become a target of an unprecedented campaign of terror and hatred through media, courts, police and politicians? A campaign so overwhelming that it is grotesque, a campaign, which is becoming the biggest scandal in Europe today?

A summary of events: a little girl by the name of Deimante Kedyte was prostituted by her own mother to paedophiles between the age of 3 to 5, while she was in her custody. The mother Laima Stankunaite made thousands of Euro per month selling her own daughter to high ranking Lithuanian politicians, judges, and businessmen. She lived on the money her daughter generated and until present this has been her main source of income, after the daughter was forcefully restored to her on the 17^th of May 2012. Police and Special Forces stormed the house where the girl lived safely with the family of her aunt Neringa Venckiene, brutalised her and her aunt, then the mother Laima Stankunaite and her lawyer took the girl away by force while she screamed and fought for her life (evidence see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N4yURmXyU4

This story began four years ago when the little girl told her father, Drasuis Kedys, about the abuse, and he fought to protect her. He tried to initiate an investigation of the paedophiles his daughter said abused her in her mother’s flat, at hotels and motels, and forced her to perform sexual intercourse “everywhere” since the age of 3. But even though the evidence was overwhelming, and while the girl was subjected to several psychological and medical tests, which all confirmed she was telling the truth, none of the suspects she mentioned were ever investigated. On the contrary, her father and three witnesses were murdered, and the girl passed into her aunt’s custody. In January 2012, the court decided to give the girl back to her mother, who has no stable place of residence, no education, and no job. She lives under the constant protection of two masked bodyguards and the source of her income has been unclear for years. It is unclear too how she can afford to pay the most expensive lawyer in the country costing Euro 700 per hour. 


During the custody battle, the girl wrote to the court and stated that she does not want to live with the mother, that she wants to stay with her aunt Neringa ‘forever’, because “she is good to me”. Yet the court completely dismissed the girl’s will and after one unsuccessful attempt to enforce the police order and remove her from her home on the 23. March 2012 (what happened, see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptGVTGTbCdA) police and Special Forces stormed her home and violently tore her away from her guardian’s arms on May 17^th. 


Her mother, Laima Stankunaite, wearing a bullet proof vest, and the mother’s lawyer carried, stone-faced, the screaming and terrified girl away into the waiting van (see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zE_a3fvfVI), while Special Forces and police beat and carried away protesters. 39 people who protested the girl’s kidnapping by force and her horrifying and inhumane treatment, were detained. People, who went to protest in front of the Presidential palace against the brutal treatment of the girl, will soon face prosecution too. At the moment, the parliament is working on removing the aunt Neringa Venckiene’s immunity as a judge, so that she too can be prosecuted and destroyed - professionally, personally, and economically.

She has become an enemy of the state, attacked with its full force. But why? Who is afraid of her? If you watch the video again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N4yURmXyU4, the agression comes from one side only: police, bailiff, mother and her lawyer trying to tear the girl away from the neck of her aunt. Neringa Venckiene tries to defend the girl, who screams that it does not want to go to “live with Laima”, and asks them to ‘leave my home’.

How could this custody case escalate to a state scandal and make an ordinary woman an enemy of the state?

There are many reasons why high officials want her removed, but the main are two: she is pushing for investigation of the pedophile case, in which case the evidence has been systematically destroyed (murders of witnesses, destruction of material, massive media campaign for deception and disinformation of the public, and threats of legal destruction of anyone who dares speak about it publicly) and second, the political dangers that this new movement against corruption presents for those who hold power in Lithuania today, for the threat it poses to the government, to the governing parties, their people in the state institutions (courts, police etc), and their business friends.

In this article I want to focus on the second reason: the political significance of Neringa Venckiene and her struggle for justice.

Whether she has political ambitions or no, is irrelevant, the important here is that Lithuanian people have risen to protest against corruption that threatens to consume the most important – their children. There is a strong sentiment in society that enough is enough, that now corruption must be stopped. This makes it possible for a new political party to swipe into power. This momentum must be used and any attempts by the government to stop and block that political movement must be made public. It will be a monumental battle, to judge by the government's reactions. Publicity and access to the international community is the only way to succeed in this battle. Contacts with European parties and appearances in international media can provide insurance against government harassment.

The only way for this movement to succeed is to become internationally known through media and international political contacts. As long as this movement is closed and local, known only within Lithuania, it will be easy to suppress and its members harassed and removed. The language barrier and the closeness of the political system will make it easy for those who hold the power now to suppress it, and they will use every means to do so.

So why is Neringa Venckiene a state enemy? Why is this brave woman terrorized and attacked by the media, courts and politicians?

Because she sets an example of civil courage and bravery that can spark Lithuanians to seek to change the political system by removing those in power. People can be inspired to believe that they can resist the state – and win. From the president down to the last bureaucrat, the current power elite is afraid of that. The President of Lithuania Dalia Grybauskaite and the government are afraid that Lithuanians may begin to believe they can win, they can be free. And this is why Neringa Venckiene, just like the little girl Deimante Kedyte – has to be destroyed with force so great as to scare everyone in Lithuania, everyone who even thinks to oppose the government and the corrupted judiciary.

Lithuania is still in many levels totalitarian state. The media is controlled, and so are the courts, so are the police, special forces, and politicians have become ‘partners in crime’: abusing together and covering each other. And those, who try to oppose are immediately destroyed, often by using a favorite method from the KGB – punitive psychiatry.

And if someone, hypothetically, a very powerful individual or a group of individuals can draw into the circle of pedophiles, high-ranking officials in each of the state institutions, politicians in the government, business and the media, he practically owns the state.

Evidence is systematically destroyed, and witnesses who try to speak up – removed. But soon, the scandal will be too big for Lithuania to contain, soon the eyes of the world will turn to it, and then there will be nowhere to hide.

To use the momentum, the leaders of the new political movement in Lithuania must open it to the world, must use as much publicity as possible, because this is their insurance and defence against the perpetrators who rule the Lithuanian people today.

The raped girl has become a symbol of Lithuania. We can see her vulnerable body torn away from the place she wants to be, her future taken away from her as she is carried screaming out into the waiting van. We can see her mother and her lawyer holding opposite legs, her head is unsupported and so she has to clutch her ‘mother’ as she screams in horror. We can see that her mother and her lawyer have practiced the technique for carrying her away by force. And we can also see the police arresting vulnerable people, beating them and carrying them away, barefoot.

But if they fight, they will win, because they are dealing with a desperate enemy who knows their time has come, who knows that this battle will decide the future of Lithuania. The government of Lithuania is desperate – this is why they deploy excessive force. They know that if this movement gathers force, they will loose the coming elections. And they made a huge mistake, and will make more mistakes trying to openly brutalise protesters.

The eyes of the world are on them, and it is just a matter of time before the perpetrators are exposed in all main media around the world.

Will Lithuanians fight, will they get that girl back? If they cannot win this battle, when there is nothing left to loose, then there is no hope left for the country, no hope at all.

So, who is so afraid of Neringa Venckiene?
