Russian investigative journalists have a very dangerous profession, in Russia, and even on occasion outside of Russia.

Of course, I’d worry about that guy that only scored it a “9”.

"Fell from the window." That's classic. It is a cliché now and with that it is a warning to others who write unapproved things.

Russian version of “you’re fired!”

He’s Russian. If he was an American investigating Hillary, he would be found dead with two bullet holes in his head - double tap - of “suicide”.
To: BeadCounter
Maybe he decided to jump instead of set himself on fire.

I think that is the same city where Czar Nicholas and his family were murdered.
What better place to send a message.

Jan Masaryk was known for being very neat and tidy. He even closed the window after himself.

Suicide.

Sounds like a bad case of the Russian flu. Glad things like that never happen in America. Are you saying that to Forrestal any speculation?

The movie doesn’t show it but Kirov’s assassin
was mysteriously killed while being transported,
All the security men involved, later died quietly.
One can only imagine what things would have been
like had Hillary ever achieved such power, there
are certainly enough mysterious deaths associated
with her as it is.
