She was 97, alone, and forgotten — locked in a collapsing house with no heat, no electricity, and boards nailed to her bed. For 14 years, her neighbor stole her pension, her housing certificate, and her freedom. In this episode of From Russia with Crime, we expose the horrifying story of Olya Bogdanova, a near-centenarian held prisoner in her own home by the people who promised to care for her. What they didn’t expect? That she would survive long enough to expose them. A chilling case of greed, cruelty — and a woman who outlived her captors’ lies.
