    I’d rather see him rot in jail for the rest of his life, death seems like too easy of a way out, but can’t complain too much if that is true considering it was always a possibility he would be able to live out his days in freedom in Russia if things had gone a bit differently.

    Knew it would happen eventually. Shame. He would have made a great witness in the Hague, after his own trial.

    Consolation prize here is that if he died in prison, either by suicide or murder, he would have known it was coming and wouldn’t have been quick or peaceful.

  4. So basically girkin was the self proclaimed leader of the DPR and aided Putin in the annexation of Donbas back in 2014 and is a total piece of human shit? And so Putin had to get rid of him after criticizing him?

    I was pleased to see this news, but I tried looking for additional sources to confirm and couldn’t find any official confirmation on Girkin dying.

    I’m jut going to assume he is still locked up in Russian prison which is fine by me, let him rot in prison and if he does meet his end while incarcerated then all the better.

    He fell out of a ground-story window. The body was almost unrecognizable.

    below the line probably reads like this: useful idiot met another useful idiot who wanted to show his loyalty to putler by leading example.

    Or apart from his war crimes, he was very successful in dragging ru into an untenable scenario in which multiple republics seek a way out of the federation because his way of separatism proofed staying in the federation even as separate republic is deadly.

    This means a strike against FSB. Their colonel, just for having largish mouth, was imprisoned and very likely murdered?

    He is very likely a victim of a serious undercarpet war going on in Russia top echelons. He annoyed Army to no end. Does it mean army getting the upper hand in competition with FSB? Navalny was very likely the FSB job. Is this a payback moment?..

    It’s death announcement number 300, I think 🤔

    His wife will share some information then, like he promised. Can’t wait

  10. If true, it didn’t take long. Kind of a preemptive Prygoshin strike.

    Karma catches up with you. Girkin/’Strelkov’ will burn in hell for his role in MH17.
