"The Rahova Beast" was hidded in his own house 
The Torturers (were helped to) escape

…The short term scheduled for the torturers’ appeal is suspicious.  We were told they were not found right after the sentencing… In this case, the Police really wanted not to find them.  We are talking about intention, not an oversight. Later, the Police – which had “precise” data – declared that the two hid somewhere in the country: "they are together in a location, and are waiting for the appeal’s resolution". If they were together and knew what they were waiting for, then the Police knew where they were.  And now, the recourse comes suspiciously fast. 

One of the former victims of Creanga, told us that he followed the movements around his house, on Visarion 8.  His surprise was to see the Policemen being greeted in a friendly fashion inside his house, and then leaving very shortly.  It was obvious they did not search the house.  He firmly believes Creanga never left home.  Although there is a General arrest warrant for them, they were treated “friendly” (they had been colleagues, right ?).  The subterfuge took the short appeals term into consideration.
Same thing happened with Tudor Stanica at his home on Rafael Santio street. Many of today’s police chiefs were his subordinates before 1989. If the torturers “disappeared”, it’a all due to their connections in the Police and Secret services.

So, the torturer Mihail Creanga never even ran away to avoid the prison he commanded his whole life. He stayed in his huge villa, which he ammassed by fraud. In spite of the whole country’s public opinion.  … The normal thing would be for them to be brought to trial in handcuffs.  By the Police
