I am writing to inform you about an incident that occurred on the evening of May 26, 2024, at approximately 8:00 PM in Ostbevern-Lehmbrock (located between Münster and Osnabrück). This was not merely a case of drunk driving, but rather a drunken rampage—or even a drunken act of terror, reckless endangerment, or a near-fatal collision—that nearly resulted in mass casualties. I want to stress unequivocally that this event must not be classified as a mere "accident." The perpetrators were three intoxicated young adults—two men and one woman. The van was driven in an outrageously fast, aggressive, brutal, frightening, reckless, selfish, and grotesque manner. It is crucial that the public be made aware of what happened. My intent is to highlight the extreme danger posed by this criminal act and to urge that these three individuals be apprehended and sentenced to life imprisonment.
My name is Teddy Waiyaki. I am from Nairobi, Kenya, and I am a deaf and mute person. I want to share a life-changing experience I had in 2012—an experience that redefined my understanding of life, faith, and purpose.
At the time, I was gravely ill, suffering from heart pain and severe headaches. One night, as I tried to sleep, my body gave in to weakness and I collapsed. In that moment, I left this world—I died.
April 16, 2021—a day like any other—or so I thought. I felt the familiar flood of thoughts racing through my mind. My past, my struggles, my unanswered prayers. The promises I had made to myself and the ones I had broken. The dreams I had envisioned and the uncertainties that loomed over them. I took a deep breath, ending my meditation and whispered, “God, reveal to me what I need to know now.” Then, I went to take a bath.
I’ve always had an issue with things scraping against my teeth, and I absolutely cannot stand it. So from childhood on, I’ve always gotten nitrous oxide at the dentist for teeth cleaning, every 6 months or so, for approximately 40 years.
I knew how my body reacted to the nitrous and also the visualizations that I got. It was always the same. The ceiling would start zig-zagging (best way I can describe it), and I had no care in the world about my teeth being touched.
This experience took me around three years before I was able to even document it or describe it, as it was so extreme. Even now the experience is constantly fixed in my mind and memory as if it happened only yesterday.
I was lying in bed resting after suffering an injury to my neck that day, and I had overexerted myself and had gone to bed to rest. There was a buildup of energy and stress in my body going up my spine, into my head, and I felt a sense of lack of connection and control.
