From Vadik:
I’m looking for help from US attorneys and military to find my son, Kuzya Cosmo Marmeladov, 18 December, 2020.
He was illegally transferred to Russia, with my written non-consent and email notification to @FBI and @LAPDHQ around July 2024.
Please help if you have any information about the hostage, he is 5yo and being in captivity somewhere in Russia. I suspect my ex-wife Maria Melkosyants and her family is part of a “pedophile ring”.
I can’t leave the country, as my documents were stolen. Reported to @LAPDHQ and got case number for investigation.
Contacted Russian Embassy right away, November 6, 2024.
Receiving death treats and being assaulted on the street.
I’m available for in person interview or as a witness. Left a written form at @FBI HQ in Los Angeles on September 26, 2024.
Please contact me:
+1 323 983 36 51,
vadikmarmeladov@gmail.com.
I’m looking for any help and already cooperating with @FBI
Thank you so much for everyone who expressed their thoughts and feelings here.
Will write also in Russian, in case someone missed because of the language.

I grow little of the food I eat, and of the little I do grow
I did not breed or perfect the seeds.
I do not make any of my own clothing.
I speak a language I did not invent or refine.
I did not discover the mathematics I use.
I am protected by freedoms and laws I did not conceive
of or legislate, and do not enforce or adjudicate.
I am moved by music I did not create myself.
When I needed medical attention, I was helpless
to help myself survive.
I did not invent the transistor, the microprocessor,
object oriented programming, or most of the technology
I work with.
I love and admire my species, living and dead, and am
totally dependent on them for my life and well being.
