BuzzFeed News: "Everyone thinks he was whacked"
The US government ruled Mikhail Lesin’s death an accident, but multiple intelligence and law enforcement officials suspect it was a Russian hit. The government is withholding information so today BuzzFeed News has filed a lawsuit to pry the records loose.
Vladimir Putin’s former media czar was murdered in Washington, DC, on the eve of a planned meeting with the US Justice Department, according to two FBI agents whose assertions cast new doubts on the US government’s official explanation of his death.
Mikhail Lesin’s battered body was discovered in his Dupont Circle hotel room on the morning of Nov. 5, 2015, with blunt-force injuries to the head, neck, and torso. After an almost yearlong "comprehensive investigation," a federal prosecutor announced last October that Lesin died alone in his room due to a series of drunken falls “after days of excessive consumption of alcohol.” His death was ruled an "accident," and prosecutors closed the case.
But the two FBI agents — as well as a third agent and a serving US intelligence officer — said Lesin was actually bludgeoned to death. None of these officials were directly involved in the government’s investigation, but they said they learned about it from colleagues who were.
“Lesin was beaten to death,” one of the FBI agents said. “I would implore you to say as much. There seems to be an effort here to cover up that fact for reasons I can't get into.”

ReplyDeleteThank you Anon, it has been corrected. This is what happens when you do not have your morning coffee.
ReplyDeleteIt's know. To us 'Muricans as "Arkicide".
ReplyDeleteA good percentage of the population has been drunk and even more have seen drunks.
ReplyDeleteThey have 1st and 2nd hand knowledge.
They are not going to buy this story.
The only way this story goes away is if it does not get publicity; if it gets buried by current news.
A drunk will go to sleep. A drunk will stumble. A drunk may face plant. A face planted drunk will feel sorry for himself and crawl onto a bed and sleep it off. After all it is a hotel room and the bed is close.
The Obama Administration also ignored or buried the Seth Rich and John Wheeler murders.

Blunt force trauma caused death
ReplyDeleteSwitch to 5hr energy! That stuff gets my blood boiling,ready to work
ReplyDelete"So why the interest now?" the answer to that should be obvious. the same people behind the fraud of Russian interference in the US election want to portray Putin as a cold-blooded killer, too.
ReplyDeleteI like Putin. He was brought up scrappy in Leningrad. He has some good traits. He won't let someone steal his lunch money and cry about it; he'll get even and then some.
ReplyDeleteI doo not know if he has personally killed someone, but yes he is a killer.
