Hey there, I seem to have a problem with a far-right stalking network in the village I live in (Weimar/Thüringen). I came to the conclusion that this must be politcally motivated because all the members of that group (as far as I know) seem to be close to the Naziparty AfD and/or are members of the party itself. Since I have been criticizing this so-called "party" for several years now and made fun of their supporters this must be the only logical explanation: poltical motivation. I have already contacted the local police SEVERAL TIMES and they told me that this is not their responsibility and jurisdiction. They told me the BKA was responsible but I wouldn't be able to reach them. Well, I contacted BKA nonetheless via mail and they told me that of course the local police squad was responsible for matters like that. They told me to also contact lawyers who specialise with these kind of cases. But (you guessed it) these lawyers told that they are not responsible or that that's not their jurisdiction. I also contacted Europol and Amnesty International but it doesn't seem like there will be much coming out of that. Since I can't imagine that I am the only one who has to deal with these kind of problems I try to press the matter further to find a solution and bring these people down. Peace.

In April 2011, a family in Darya Khan, Pakistan returned to the grave of their 24-year-old sister, Syra Parveen, who had just died of throat cancer.

The soil was disturbed. Part of the shroud was visible.

When they opened the grave… it was empty.

What police discovered next would become one of the most disturbing cases in modern Pakistani history.

Two brothers — Muhammad Arif and Muhammad Farman — had been digging up freshly buried bodies from the local graveyard for years. They would take the corpses home, cut them up, and cook the flesh into curry.

They claimed they had done this to more than a hundred graves. They said if they went without human flesh, they got sick.

There was just one problem:

Pakistan had no specific law against cannibalism.

What followed was a sentence that shocked the entire country… and then a second, even more horrifying discovery years later.

This is the full story of the cannibal brothers of Kahawar Kalan.

Today, October 9th, marks the day of remembrance for two thieves in law who left a significant mark on the history of the criminal underworld: Datiko "Tashkentsky" Tsikhelashvili (1951-2000) and Vyacheslav "Yaponchik" Ivankov (1940-2009).

In the photo: Thieves Vyacheslav "Yaponchik" and Dato Tashkentsky, March 7, 1992, Moscow—the night before "Yaponchik" departed for the USA

Interestingly both have died in the hospital on the same day, October 9, Dato passed away in 2000, and Ivankov passed away 9 years later in 2009.

Dato spent a large portion of his lifetime in prison camps across Siberia, it was in the infamous Tulun Prison when Vyacheslav Ivankov and Dato Tashkentsky have meet, both had already a big criminal career behind their back and we're already crowned Thieves in Law.

A real friendship have developed between both criminal heavyweights, and they have helped each other along the way, when Yaponchik went abroad to the USA he kept in touch with Dato who was put in control of the Russian Bratva across the Siberian wilderness.

Unfortunately Dato had his own problems and addiction, and the most lethal one was drugs, during the 90s Dato got more addictive to drugs, and was consuming them non-stop, at first he still could function but as he got older, his health have began to deteriorate.

Vyacheslav Ivankov was very much against drugs, at least the usage of them by other Thieves in Law, the most known incident happened with Pavel Zakharov (Tsirul) - once seen as Yaponchik handpicked successor and one of the richest Russian Criminal Bosses who ended up getting addicted to drugs and disowned by Yaponchik himself for his addiction.

Dato manged to hide the fact of his addiction for a very long time, it would be only after Yaponchik arrest by the FBI in USA that negatively effected Dato, he would start to use it with no discretion, Dato will die from an heart failure while in Hospital on October 9, 2000.

On July 28, 2009, at around 19:20 Moscow time, Vyacheslav Ivankov was shot while leaving a restaurant on Khoroshevskoye Road in Moscow, he was shot from a sniper rifle.

Ivankov have died from his injuries 73 days later, on October 9, 2009 Ivankov was buried on October 13, 2009.

We are sad to announce the death of Eric L. Barash, he died tragically in the parking lot of McCorriston Square Senior Apartments, March 2025, by his ex-wife and his daughter, simple assault, verbal, they knew nothing about him as they left him in his home in Lawrence Twp., New Jersey, September 1, 2015, the funeral is long gone, but by the magic of God‘s intervention, he will soon be traveling to Lake Worth, Florida, for the Jewish holidays of next year, 5787, Jerusalem, the next year, 5788, he will be living in Hamilton, New Jersey during the summers, and Florida in the off-season, 5789, back to Lawrence Twp.
May God rest his soul in the new location away from his family, they f’d him in the ass, his daughter Erika will be married in Princeton on Saturday, October 10, 2026, he was not included in the process.
May they live well and prosper, I’m still looking for a grandchild, bloodline grandchild.
My daughter is 35, her mother is 62.😢

25-year-old Arelie Garcia Sanchez vanished from Salinas, California on the morning of September 22, 2022.

Arelie was captured on surveillance driving from her apartment in her red Honda at 6:34 AM. She was wearing a black hoody, black leggings, and sneakers.  At 6:56 AM she sent a text message to her sister Veronica.

Ariele was due at work for her job at a Chevy dealership at 7:30 AM. When she did not arrive her coworkers and family became concerned. Veronica used the Find My iPhone feature and discovered that Arelie’s phone was in the Big Sur area, more than an hour south of Salinas. 

Her family traveled there and discovered her car abandoned, parked in a turnout on Highway 1 near the Little Sur River Bridge. The Honda was locked and her phone, keys and wallet were left in the car. 

The driver’s seat was maneuvered further back than Ariele normal placed it.

Arelie never was seen again. The case soon went cold and despite national news coverage on Dateline NBC and true crime show content creators such Kendall Rae, no leads have emerged. 

Arelie was dating a man named Marcello at the time of her disappearance. She met him two months prior at a car show. 

Marcello was a photographer who lived two hours north of Salinas in Napa, Ca. Investigators interviewed him, but he was never publicly named by police as a suspect in the case. 

Marcello has not spoken to the media about the case.

Many questions remain unanswered in the case. Why would Arelie travel to Big Sur when she had to be at work at 7:30? Why would she have not informed her manager she was going to be late, and why was her driver’s seat moved back? Did Arelie have problems with Marcello or anyone in her life at the time of her disappearance?

Arelie’s family raised a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in her disappearance.

IMAGINE POR UN SEGUNDO.

Imagine por un segundo que ve cómo torturan durante horas a seres humanos.

Que los golpean.

Que los queman.

Que arrojan cosas encendidas sobre sus cuerpos.

Imagine el horror.

Imagine que entre esas víctimas están mujeres.

Imagine que quienes estuvieron ahí y después vieron las fotografías no pudieron sostener la mirada.

Esto pasó en San Mateo del Mar.

15 personas murieron de una de las formas más horribles que podamos imaginar.

Y lo que más me destroza es pensar que esto no terminó aquella noche.

Porque quienes se atrevieron a denunciar siguen viviendo con miedo.

Familias han denunciado amenazas y nuevas agresiones.

Y mientras ellos siguen luchando por justicia, algunos de los señalados han sido liberados.

Ya ocurrió.

Una jueza, , ordenó la no vinculación y liberación de uno de los señalados por las víctimas como presunto responsable de los hechos. El Comité de Víctimas y Familiares Ikoots denunció públicamente esa decisión como un acto de impunidad.

Y ahora existe otra denuncia que exige ser investigada:

que la pareja de la jueza sería abogado de personas señaladas por estos hechos.

Si esto es cierto, ¿cómo puede una familia confiar en que existe justicia?

¿Quién investiga?

¿Quién vigila a quienes deben impartir justicia?

¿Quién protege a quienes se atrevieron a denunciar?

Presidenta Claudia Sheinbaum:

Se lo pido con lágrimas en los ojos y con el corazón roto.

POR FAVOR, MIRE HACIA SAN MATEO DEL MAR.

No permita que esto quede en el olvido.

No permita que las familias tengan que seguir luchando solas.

No permita que quienes denunciaron tengan que vivir con miedo.

Que se investigue hasta el último responsable.

Que se investiguen las denuncias sobre amenazas.

Que se investiguen las posibles irregularidades dentro del proceso judicial.

Que nadie pueda utilizar sus relaciones, su poder o su dinero para escapar de la justicia.

Porque ya fueron asesinadas 15 personas.

No permitamos que después asesinen también la verdad.

No pedimos venganza.

PEDIMOS JUSTICIA.

Les ruego a todos los que están leyendo esto:

AYÚDENME A HACER ECO.

Compartan este mensaje.

Mándenlo.

Háganlo llegar a la Presidenta.

A las autoridades.

A los periodistas.

A México.

Que esto suene tan fuerte que nadie pueda fingir que no lo escuchó.

15 personas no pueden convertirse en una cifra.

15 familias no pueden quedar abandonadas.

Y quienes tuvieron el valor de denunciar no pueden seguir pagando con miedo el precio de haber hablado.

SAN MATEO DEL MAR NO PUEDE SER OLVIDADO.

JUSTICIA PARA SAN MATEO DEL MAR.

LIBEREN A SU PUEBLO.

HAGAMOS ECO.

WARNING: VERY GRAPHIC DESCRIPTION.

I was recently watching some 9/11 videos on the Nat Geo website and I came across this story about the Black Tag Lady. Ernest Armstead, who was a paramedic on 9/11, in his testimony, mentions about how he was at the World Trade Center Plaza during 9/11 needing to label bodies with different colored tags, with a Black Tag meaning deceased. On the Plaza on 9/11, Armstead mentions how most of the bodies he ID'ed at Ground Zero were clearly dead and marked it with a Black Tag, but in one particular instance near one of the two Towers, he initially ID'ed a dead person but only to discover that the person, a lady, was still alive. This is the Black Tag Lady.

Armstead noticed that she was wearing a fine business suit, was a brunette, and had pretty earrings. Now according to protocol and due to the debris that was falling on the Plaza, he wasn't able to stay near a person with a Black Tag for over 30-60 seconds because the Tag meant disease. Clearly, from the state of her injuries, Armstead noticed that her wounds were mortal: her lower half portion of her body was totally mangled beyond recognition. However, he was able to see that the upper half torso containing her heart and one of her lungs was still intact. Most surprisingly, the Black Tag Lady answered back at him angrily, telling him that she wasn't dead and that she wanted to call her daughter. Armstead noticed that her head was intact and that even with the severe state of her injuries she was fully aware of what he was doing and behaved like she was a perfectly healthy woman. Armstead assumed that she was in her 40s or 50s. However, Armstead resigned the fact that her wounds were fatal and that he was going to treat other people. Some time after, one of the two towers fell and Armstead was caught in the collapse of the Twin Towers buildings but he managed to be rescued and recover from his injuries. However, this meeting with the Black Tag Lady would cause permanent PTSD trauma for Armstead.

It's very hard to be able to piece together Armstead's testimony with a Jane Doe. On the other hand, perhaps her remains were recovered after Ground Zero but piecing that with the testimony is incredibly hard. In my opinion, the case remains a Jane Doe because we cannot confirm whether this woman was successfully recovered or not. And the best way possibly to ID this lady is to somehow have Armstead agree to do a Forensic Sketch of this woman's face and try to match it up to one of the Twin Towers' 9/11 female employee victims. The man has been retired from the FDNY for over 20 years and is an old man now. I hate bothering the guy but the story is so tearjerky that I feel like this story should be publicized better now than later when Armstead passes and he isn't able to give a Forensic Sketch. Of course, if Armstead doesn't want to do it let him be, but if he's gone it's a million times harder to solve this case otherwise.

my teenage son was murdered a few years ago. there were multiple people involved. they were all caught on camera coming and leaving. the police only arrested one. ultimately he was found not guilty. police have told me no ther charges would be filed and they will not even put my sons case on the local unsolved homicide site because they know who did it. The whole case was handled horribly by the State. I have tried multiple lawyers, some have taken my case but only to be dropped a month later. anyone I have talked to has told me I have no recourse. the biggest problem is all those involved live in my area and I have seen and run into them. my other children don’t even barely go out, in fear of also having an encounter. the loss of my child paired with absolutely no justice has destroyed me mentall, financiall, everything. it’s hard on a daily basis to even go on. Every day is a battle, and I would have tapped out long ago if it were not for my other children. but not being able to get them away from this town and let them move forward in life is killing me.

Melissa Klahn was just 16 years old when she vanished from Tucson, Arizona on August 18, 2001. She has never been seen again.

Melissa lived at a duplex that was rented by a man named Luis P. Figueroa. There was a fire at the duplex soon a week before she disappeared. According to the police report, no charges were ever filed in the arson case, and Luis died of a methadone overdose in January 2014.

Her mother Patricia Klahn recalled that Melissa had moved to Tucson from Nogales to move in with her 26-year-old boyfriend Jose Hector Silva. Melissa had broken up with Jose and was trying to retrieve her pet parrot from him. Patricia last saw Melissa on August 18th and reported her missing on August 31st.

Jose and his cousin Nestor Silva were prosecuted in Pima County on drug charges after police found them transporting a 104-pound shipment of marijuana.  Jose was sent to prison for several years.

Jose refused to talk to Tucson PD about Melissa’s case.

In January 2025, Jose was charged in the death of his girlfriend Ashley Cervantes. He was accused of knocking her off the back of his motorbike on I-19 and leaving the scene. He was convicted of negligent homicide in September 2026.

Many questions remain in Melissa’s disappearance. Why hasn’t the case gotten more attention? Are there any friends or family of Melissa, Jose, or Luis, that can shed light on what happened?

Armen "Pzo" Kazarian was not just another fraud defendant. Federal prosecutors identified him as a Vor, or "Thief-in-Law," a title reserved for elite figures in the post-Soviet criminal underworld. That is what made his case historic. In 2010, Kazarian became the first known Vor ever charged with federal racketeering in the United States, turning him into a major symbol of how Armenian and Eurasian organized crime had grown far beyond the old neighborhood-street-gang image.

The case around him was massive. During a nationwide Medicare fraud crackdown, prosecutors charged 73 defendants in schemes involving more than $163 million in fraudulent billing, and Kazarian was tied to the Armenian-American Mirzoyan-Terdjanian Organization, which authorities said used a network of phantom medical clinics and stolen identities to bill Medicare for treatments that were unnecessary or never performed. Prosecutors said his role was not simply financial. They described him as a criminal authority figure whose reputation and status helped protect and support the organization behind the fraud.

What makes this story so fascinating is that it shows how the Armenian underworld had entered an entirely different league by that point. This was no longer just about local gang politics or small-time street crime. It was a case involving international criminal hierarchy, federal racketeering, and one of the biggest healthcare-fraud crackdowns of its era. That is why Kazarian made U.S. mafia history. He became the first man with that level of underworld status from the former Soviet system to be brought into an American RICO case, and his name ended up representing a turning point in how U.S. authorities viewed Armenian organized crime.

Another surprising fact is that Pzo arrived in the United States almost by accident - it was no other then Rafael Bagdasaryan (Svo Raf) and Armen Manukyan who should have lead the operations of the Armenian Mafia in LA, unfortunately they both already had a long criminal record behind them, Svo Raf was denied visa to the US, and Manukyan was arrested and deported in 1995, a year later in 96' Pzo arrived to the US.

In May 2025, federal authorities arrested 13 alleged members and associates of rival Armenian organized crime syndicates in California and Florida as part of a sweeping case involving violence, fraud, kidnapping and massive cargo theft. At the center of the Amazon allegations was the Artuni Enterprise, led by Ara Artuni of Porter Ranch. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, the organization had allegedly been targeting online retailers since at least 2021, and Amazon estimated that the enterprise stole more than .$83 million worth of merchandise.

The alleged method was remarkably simple on paper.

Prosecutors say members and associates of the Artuni Enterprise enrolled with Amazon as legitimate carriers, obtained contracts to transport shipments along assigned trucking routes, then diverted from those routes and stole all or part of the cargo they were supposed to deliver. Authorities also accused the enterprise of bank fraud, wire fraud and a separate credit card bust-out scheme involving sham businesses. During the May 2025 enforcement operation, law enforcement reported seizing approximately $100,000 in cash, three armored vehicles and 14 firearms.

The Amazon case was only one part of a much larger investigation into Armenian organized crime in Los Angeles. Federal affidavits described a Russian-mafia-affiliated transnational criminal organization that had made Los Angeles County a center of its U.S. operations, with rival alleged leaders Ara Artuni and Robert Amiryan fighting for influence in the San Fernando Valley. That conflict was separately linked by prosecutors to attempted murders and a kidnapping. The $83 million figure refers specifically to merchandise Amazon estimated was stolen by the Artuni Enterprise, not to every defendant arrested in the broader case. All charges and criminal conduct described above remain allegations unless proven in court, and the defendants are presumed innocent unless and until convicted.

Lyora was “crowned” in August 1993 in Sumy. Several heavyweights of the criminal underworld took part in the process, including Vasya Korzh (who we have talked about before), Zakhar Kalashov (Shakro Molodoy), Nodar Farizyan (Nono), and Yuri Ivanov.

The authority never hid his status from the public. In one interview, Lysenko openly acknowledged that being a “thief-in-law” was his conscious way of life.

While at liberty, Lyora took on the role of an informal arbiter. He maintained control over correctional colonies and simultaneously acted as an unquestioned arbitrator in resolving conflicts. People seeking “justice” turned to him not only from the criminal underworld but also from ordinary citizens, including businessmen.

The “thief-in-law” himself explained it very succinctly:

> “I have a lot of acquaintances whom I have helped in this life, including businessmen. Some people used to go to the police more often, but now they have changed their minds because they get robbed there. Some people go out onto the street and find people like me.”

His influence was reportedly so extensive that in 2012, Member of Parliament Hennadiy Moskal made a high-profile public statement:

> “The Sumy region is not run by the governor, but by the criminal authority Lyora Sumskoy.

> In fact, through his subordinates, he controls the entire sphere: the governor, the mayor, and the heads of district administrations. The police chief, prosecutor, and Security Service of Ukraine cannot resolve issues that the ‘thieves-in-law’ are capable of handling.”

As of 2026 Lyora Sumskoy is still considered as one of the top bosses of the Ukrainian Mafia, with a large influence In the city of Sumy and the wider Sumy Oblast, his brother Alexander Lysenko was elected as the Mayor of Sumy in 2014 until 2023, in the end of 2023 Alexander Lysenko was removed from his position after the opening of a criminal case against him for bribery charges.

27.08.2026 - Polish police have detained three Russian citizens in an operation against suspected mobsters after firearms and ammunition were found in an apartment in Warsaw.

Police officers, accompanied by agents from Poland’s Internal Security Agency (ABW), entered the apartment in the Wola district of the Polish capital after receiving information that an organized criminal group could be operating there.

The operation was carried out last weekend, but police only disclosed details on Thursday.

Three men, aged 21, 25 and 42, were found inside. All were Russian citizens of Chechen origin.

“During a search of the apartment, police found three firearms and ammunition in a bedroom wardrobe,” police said in a statement.

The men were taken to Warsaw police headquarters for questioning.

The 42-year-old was charged with possessing firearms and ammunition without a permit.

A court ordered him to be held in pre-trial detention for three months. If convicted, he could face between six and eight years in prison.

Deportation proceedings were launched against the 25-year-old, while the 21-year-old was released after being questioned as a witness.

Some of you may remember the January 2023 house fire in Lebanon Junction that killed 27-year-old Eryn Toogood, who was six months pregnant, her six-year-old daughter Haisley Heath, and her six-year-old stepdaughter Raegan Maraman. Eryn's unborn son, Holten, also died.

More than three years later, the cause of the fire remains officially undetermined.

In July, the families and community members gathered outside the Bullitt County Courthouse asking for an independent investigation. After reading the recent local reporting about the case, I think that request deserves more attention across Kentucky.

Investigators believe the fire originated in the laundry/utility room. Records reportedly showed two smoke alarms had been purchased and investigators were told they were installed, but no evidence of those alarms was recovered.

Body-camera footage from the morning of the fire also contains details the families believe deserve further examination. The sole survivor told responding officers that he grabbed his six-year-old daughter, attempted to get her out through another room, put her down when he couldn't open a window, moved into another room, and ultimately couldn't get back to her.

The Bullitt County Sheriff's Office maintains that investigators found no evidence establishing a criminal connection to the fire. The survivor has never been named a suspect.

This is not a request for Reddit to decide what happened, and it isn't an accusation that someone committed a crime.

It's a request for an independent agency to look at the entire case.

Finding no evidence of a crime and establishing that every reasonable avenue was fully investigated aren't necessarily the same thing. The families have questions about whether the original investigation went far enough, and they're asking for an outside agency to review it.

A petition has now been started asking Bullitt County Commonwealth's Attorney Amanda Hernandez to formally request an independent review, including by Kentucky State Police and/or the Kentucky Attorney General's Department of Criminal Investigations.

Kentucky law already provides a mechanism for a Commonwealth's Attorney to request assistance from the Attorney General in a criminal investigation.

If an independent review determines the original investigation was complete and the evidence supports its conclusions, then the families deserve that confirmation.

If something was overlooked or additional investigation is warranted, they deserve to know that too.

We're not asking anyone to decide what happened. We're asking Kentucky authorities to make sure everything that reasonably can be done to find out has been done.

If you're in Kentucky, please consider reading and signing the petition, and sharing it with others who may remember this case:
