Neo-Nazi guilty of grave vandalism

Desecrated nearly 70 Jewish tombs at suburban cemetery

December 4, 2010

BY DAN ROZEK Staff Reporter/drozek@suntimes.com

A neo-Nazi was convicted Friday of desecrating nearly 70 Jewish graves at a suburban cemetery with spray-painted swastikas and other anti-Semitic graffiti.

An official for Westlawn Cemetery found it appropriate that Mariusz Wdziekonski was convicted of the felony vandalism charges during Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights in the Jewish faith. snip

The Norridge man spray-painted swastikas, Nazi slogans and slurs -- including "Aryan power" and "white power" -- on the cemetery markers during a January 2008 vandalism spree. snip

But the felony convictions mean Wdziekonski, a Polish immigrant who has been in the United States since 2004, ultimately could face deportation, authorities said.

more than happy to help the Nazis during the war, and many Jews were killed AFTER the war when they attempted to return to their homes, by Poles that had taken those homes.

2. One month hard labor for each grave desecrated, THEN deportation.
I mean, back-breaking, HARD LABOR 16 hours a day, with no time to do anything else but eat and sleep and WORK.
