Drąsius Kedys
Drąsius Kedys (born September 4, 1972 in Garliava , † April 20, 2010 ) was an alleged double murderer from Lithuania.
Life
Drąsius Kedys was a merchant . He befriended the 14 years younger student Laimutė Stankūnaitė (* 1986). She had a daughter, Deimante Kedytė (* 2004). Stankūnaitė lived as a single mother. Drąsius Kedys didn't like that, and the conflict over custody of his daughter came to a head. For months, Kedys had tried to shake up the authorities and went public on the Internet that his then four-year-old daughter had been " abused by a pedophile ring". Kedys charged three alleged perpetrators by name (including a judge from the Kaunas District Court and an assistant to the Speaker of Parliament). The child's sexual abuse has not been properly investigated. On October 5, 2009, the district judge and V. Naruševičienė (Laimutė Stankūnaitė's sister) were murdered in Kaunas , and the prosecution declared Kedys a suspect. From that point on it was fleeting. The preliminary investigation against Kedys was closed after his body with multiple wounds was found at the Kaunasser Sea in 2010 . Next to the body was the weapon used to commit the murders on October 5th. Prosecutors confirmed that no DNA traces from Kedys were found on the weapon, but there were DNA traces from another person.
The Kedys case had caused a stir in Lithuania even before the murders.
In 2012 the political party Drąsos kelias was founded, which opposes pedophilia and was elected to the Seimas in October 2012 .
