As it became known to MK, 43-year-old resident of the Skhodnya microdistrict of the Khimki city district Mikhail (all names have been changed) on June 8 met a 22-year-old Muscovite Yulia on a dating site. The dialogue turned out to be fascinating, and the man managed to invite a young acquaintance on a date. Mikhail promised to pay for a taxi back and forth and have fun.
The girl arrived the next day, the gentleman paid off the taxi driver. After chatting and drinking for an acquaintance, the man invited his passion to go to an abandoned private house located nearby. Julia rejected the boyfriend's offer, but the man was persistent and convinced his chosen one. Already in the house, Mikhail began to pester the girl, offering intimacy, but she categorically rejected the offer. The attempts of the man did not stop, and then Julia, in order to ward off the gentleman, resorted to the old tried and tested method — she accused him of sexual impotence. The girl's words hurt the man. Seeing a baseball bat lying around in the house, he grabbed it and began to strike the victim. When Julia lost consciousness, he strangled her.
Having calmed down a bit, the killer decided to cover up the traces of the crime. He took Yulia's documents and phone, and then fled the scene of the crime. He threw the stolen into the Moscow River, but something haunted him. A day later, the killer returned to finally, in his opinion, destroy all traces of his atrocity. Mikhail removed the clothes from the corpse, took it with him, and subsequently threw it away. He doused the house with gasoline and set it on fire.
Local residents called firefighters, who found a charred corpse. At that time, the police could not identify the deceased. But, having studied the circle of persons recently missing, the detectives learned the name of the murdered. A taxi driver helped to get on the trail of the criminal, giving Yulia a ride and describing the signs of the criminal, as well as CCTV cameras that recorded Mikhail in the store a day before the murder. The killer was detained on June 16 at the place of residence, under the weight of evidence he was forced to confess. Previously, the man was tried for rape, he was released a year ago.
According to Anna Tertichnaya, assistant to the head of the Main Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee for the Moscow Region, a criminal case was opened on the discovery of the girl’s corpse under Part 1 of Article 105 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“Murder”) .
