Anatoly Moskvin is a Russian former linguist, philologist, and historian who was arrested in 2011 after the mummified bodies of twenty-six girls and women between the ages of 3 and 29 were discovered in his apartment in Nizhny Novgorod. After exhuming the bodies from local cemeteries, Moskvin mummified the bodies himself before dressing and posing them around his home. Moskvin's parents, who shared the apartment with him, knew of the mummies but mistook them for large dolls.

Right? And even if they're dolls. Your middle aged son having 29, human sized dolls in the house IS STILL FUCKED UP AND WEIRD. and it's a sign that your son has severe issues.

I don't agree with the arrest. He didn't harm anyone. He clearly needs to be in a institution not Jail

Let's do it with your mom and put slutty clothes on her. Maybe cop a little feelsy. No biggie right? We good?

Oh baby you gonna have a bad day because I don't give a shit and neither does my mom. After she is gone it's just meat. Also I guess you are dislexic because I didn't say it was ok, just that he has a severe mental problem and need help in a institution

So....I can borrow her for a couple hours Tuesday night? What's "dislexic"? I've heard of dyslexic before..?

I do what I can, I'm just out here doing God's work.. trying to stay humble, naimsayin? Is 'wiw' some new acronym you whipper snappers are using? Or is that another typo in your response to my reply about your typo?? I think I'm falling in love 😘

I'm sure the families of the dead are very happy and unharmed by this. By the way he is in a mental health facility, not jail

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

he was put it a mental institution tho

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Ughh.... Well, at least he didn't kill them himself, I suppose.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

That is exactly what I thought. Especially when he had a 3yo.
