In this episode of From Russia with Crime, we tell the true story of Kirill Cheplygin from Krasnoyarsk Krai. Caught on camera, Cheplygin stabbed his estranged wife Ekaterina and her new partner in the courtyard of their apartment building, while neighbors watched in silence. Yet just days after his arrest, he secured permission to join Russia’s military campaign in Ukraine instead of facing a 20-year sentence. We share how this crime shattered two families, and why Ekaterina’s mother now lives in fear — not just for justice, but for the safety of her five-year-old granddaughter.
