After the war, Dailidė sought refuge in the United States, saying he had been a "forester."
While in the United States, Dailidė lived in both Florida and Cleveland, Ohio.
[4] In 2006, a Lithuanian court convicted him of having arrested twelve Jews, including women and children, and two Poles who tried to flee from the Vilna Ghetto, and were subsequently executed.
[5] Dailidė received a 5-year prison sentence, but it was not enforced "because he is very old and does not pose danger to society".
[1] However, online databases verify that Dailidė died in 2015, and was buried at Spring Grove Cemetery in Medina, Ohio, United States,[8][9] yet he was included in the list of Nazi war criminals facing possible prosecution in 2019.
