The Leader of a “Satanic and Ritualistic Child Abuse Ring” Was Arrested. But Something is Off About This Story.

The ring leader distributed videos of children being abused and tortured in a satanic and ritualistic manner. However, there is something off about his story.

Published

on

On November 27th, four Australian men were arrested by Sydney police over their alleged involvement in an “international satanic child sex abuse material ring.” According to police, the men were “actively involved in possessing, distributing and facilitating child sexual abuse involving ritualistic or satanic themes.”

Det. Supt. Jayne Doherty said:

“There’s no run-of-the mill child abuse, it’s all abhorrent child abuse. But these ones were particularly devastating in that they use symbols and rituals around … their discussions that they were having about abusing children. It had a very ritualistic overview.

“Police will allege in court that the initial examination of these devices has discovered thousands of videos depicting the abuse of live children between the ages of babies and 12 years of age.”
– The Sydney Morning Herald, Sydney men charged over alleged international satanic paedophile network

Police will allege in court that this international group was “engaging in conversations and the sharing of material which depicted child abuse and the torture of children involving symbols and rituals linked to Satanism and the occult.” Amongst these images were also a number of videos depicting the sexual abuse of animals.

The arrests came after a lengthy investigation by detectives working in what NSW Police call Strike Force Constantine, which focuses on the online distribution of encrypted child sexual abuse material involving ritualistic and satanic themes. The fact that a unit is solely dedicated to satanic abuse is quite telling.

While the pedophile network was based around Sydney, the material was distributed through a website administered internationally.

The arrests include:

Benjamin Raymond Drysdale, 46, charged with using a carriage service to make child abuse material, along with failing to comply with reporting obligations and a drug possession charge.

Mark Andrew Sendecky, 42, charged with both possessing and accessing child abuse material.

Stuart Woods Riches, 39, charged with possessing bestiality material and accessing child abuse material, along with failing to comply with reporting obligations and drug possession.
Police also arrested 26-year-old Landon Germanotta-Mills, who is believed to be the leader of the pedophile ring. He was charged with numerous offenses, such as making available child abuse, possession of child abuse, and disseminating and possessing bestiality material.

When arrested, Germanotta-Mills was wearing a bizarre striped outfit. Considering the importance of dualistic patterns in trauma-based mind control, this is quite bizarre.

A screenshot from a video released by the SFW police showing Germanotta-Mills’ apartment.

Bizarre Ring Leader

A picture of Germanotta-Mills that was posted on Facebook in 2024.

Landon Germanotta-Mills is the founder of the Underground Media Network, an “independent Australian investigative journalism platform committed to exposing institutional abuse, systemic failures, and the misuse of power”. The website covers several issues such as police corruption and … “child protection.”

A screenshot from his Substack page where he describes himself as an Aboriginal, neurodivergent, and a survivor. I guess he forgot to mention “satanic pedo.”

His site’s logo appears to be taken directly from the movie Neon Demon, which, ironically, focuses on Hollywood rituals and sacrifices. 

Germanotta’s site contains articles “exposing” police and child abuse. Ironic.

When looking at his Facebook page, one fact stands out: He is an obsessive Lady Gaga fan. In fact, he added “Germanotta” to his name in honor of Lady Gaga’s real name, Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta.

A recent post about Lady Gaga on his Facebook page. Considering that Gaga’s work is replete with occult and satanic symbolism, his obsession with her is not surprising. 

Some of his other social media posts are simply disturbing.

In August, Germanotta-Mills posted about a missing toddler in his area.

Considering that he possessed and distributed thousands of videos of children, such as the one above, being abused and tortured in a ritualistic manner, this post is extremely chilling.

In Conclusion

The arrest of Germanotta-Mills and his colleagues is, of course, good news. However, there is something off about this story. Everything about it was highly publicised, complete with videos of police barging into his apartment and pictures of him walking out with police officers while wearing a dualistic-patterned outfit.

Everything about him, from his “journalism” to his participation in social justice movements to being the leader of an international pedo ring, points to him being some sort of operative.

While he is accused of possessing and distributing horrific material, he is not charged with producing it or even being in contact with children. What about those who engaged in the satanic and ritualistic abuse and torture of children? Are they out of bounds for law enforcement? Is Germanotta-Mills a fall guy for the international pedophile ring he worked for? Was his dualistic outfit a message to them?

Hopefully, there will be more developments to this story. But it might just end there.

A person with a fragmented mind, multiple personalities, dissociative alters, etc. can be both a recovering survivor speaking against the cult network and a current perpetrator still under the influence or control of the cult network.

Same thing that happened with Diddy. The feds raided his houses and seized recordings from the secret cameras he had all over his house and not a peep after that.

See that is exactly why there’s no ending of the nightmare, it’s all just to appease the masses/public but certainly not the real accountability that’s needed for this to end worldwide and sadly because it involves everything that is worth for these monsters, power, $$& Money, control and their sick addictions, my gosh its devastating to know that this goes on forever

These articles are very helpful in shedding light on the fundamental issue in need of rectification in our world. There are symptoms and there are root causes. When we flail away at the branches (symptoms) but do not chop at the root (source or reason for the symptoms), it is a guarantee that the visible symptoms will return as soon as the source/root cause finds a path for expression. This is a critically important concept. Criminals are not a root cause, they are a symptom. Child abuse, murder, war, cruelty, corruption etc. are symptoms. This is obvious as history has shown there is an endless supply of replacements for any ‘bad actor’ or ‘bad organization’ that is imprisoned, executed, isolated or otherwise removed from society. The remaining society provides the replacement.  The root cause, I submit, is man’s relationship with evil. We are largely oblivious to it other than its surface manifestations – the symptoms. We all know that the arrests in this article, while certainly helpful in the lives of some, will stop nothing in the bigger picture. These horrors will continue – as it is well known to anyone willing to open their eyes that the network is global and they own the government organizations tasked with stopping… Read more »

If everyone just applied this method to living, obviously not perfectly but sincerely, how much brighter things would become.
I can dream, can’t I?
How unrealistic of a dream would you guys rate that one as from a realist 1- fantasy 10 scale?
Which leaves me with, then HOW can we effectively make a positive difference, or is Earth just a lost cause at this point?…

Earth is far from a lost cause. Our predestined future is bright and magnificent, but we have to want it and shed our baggage that is binding us. The veil of our darkness has been pierced, and now the light can be seen. The evil one’s delusional spell is losing its hold. We are not alone, but in union with one another and our true Father, the lover of our souls. As to your “HOW” question, it is about the inner self-reflective work of transformation. Learning who we are and living from our true identity – and unlearning the false illusion we have erroneously admired and perpetuated. When we see that we are all connected, working on oneself and letting what flows from that be what it may, becomes the means to rectifying the whole.

Good question. The “baggage that binds us” is a reference to the false beliefs we have adopted as truth that translate into fear governed lives. Which in turn result in the monstrosity in which we live – a society riddled with the activity exposed in this VC article and all the other VC articles for that matter. Whereas TRUTH sets us free, ERROR binds us (enslaves us).

Dreams are by definition fantasy. You cannot change things, I’m sorry to say; change comes only from God—the same source of prophetic dreams.
Why would you want to make things brighter? Is your perspective really that dim?

Maybe he was genuinely trying to uncover real pedos and they got him to take the fall for their crimes. Two birds, one stone and all that.

The last photo of the found missing child.., the red gloves irk me in some nasty way. Anybody else too?
Is it maybe the shape, a cartoonesque flame-like, pointed/cut-in?
It reminds me probably of fairytale witches and gaga-styled video-stills.
Or something like that.

And: Australian, Sidney Police. . .
I remember the covid/corona-restrictions and by who and how they were practised.

I thought this while reading the entire article. The dualistic clothing could be a hint that they’re telling us he’s mind controlled. And for this specific role of playing fall guy.

That’s what I was thinking. VC didn’t search why he called himself a survivor. And, as said, you couldn’t see him participating in the crimes. Then also he’s described as a “leader”. In satanist cults, the young are not in charge. It’s the old. I’m not buying the whole story.

Nor should you. Anyone can create a narrative and misrepresent the truth. The key is in the details that are often overlooked. VC sees the truth, so he included a correctly framed quote and a humanizing photo of the suspect—unlike all the other news outlets, which are having a field day. Sadly, being taken into custody with no possibility of bail was intentionally timed to punish Germanotta-Mills for his efforts in the most painful way.

I’m finally a paid subscriber, Yay! I don’t know for how long because I didn’t know that racism and implicit biases were going to be a thing on here. I thought (and silly me) that more people who subscribed to Vigilant Citizen had spiritual discernment, but I see it is truly a Gift and not a lot of people were chosen to have that Gift. So I will try to not reply to the the ignorance in the comment section when it comes to the cesspool of thoughts and hatred concerning race. This might be removed for being off topic but the racist’s comments are still around so maybe I have a chance, lol.

I got a timestamp on this banger with the dopest quote: “I see forever in my son’s face. And he ain’t mixed race, he’s mixed heritage; there’s one race.” Says it all, IMHO. Song is “New World Order” – Bassnectar Relive Mix

Really? If that’s the case, VC may need to purge them. No need to attack people from all over the world who are also seeking the truth, just because of their race or ethnicity. Very disappointing if true.

Aboriginals – aren’t they the pre-Africans, migrated avant-le-letre?

Or am I confused with the Papuas? Very very old people anyway.
Still alive, a miracle of history.
Maybe because they killed most invaders and ate them.

I remember years ago, like in 2015. Lady Gaga came to Omaha to hang out for a week or two because at the time her boyfriend, handler or whatever was from Omaha. Anyway, she was seen at various parts of town and all the people who had a chance to meet her, all said she was the nicest, most down to Earth person. Nothing like what people expect. All that may be true, idk. I did not have a chance to meet her , so l can’t verify that. However, even back then I thought she was a ghoul. She does says creepy weird things. I Don’t need her in my life in any capacity.

If fame gets in the way of love, was it really love? I don’t think so. Or maybe it’s true that the Bible was speaking of socio-economics when it spoke of not being “unequally yoked.”
