- There is very little information about Russian serial killers out there, and that's because the Soviet Union doesn't let any of that information out to the public, but we found one Russian serial killer that made headlines so big they couldn't cover it up.

My grandpa told me of a story that once a decomposed body was found inside a tractor's wheel when they needed to change the tire. The wheel was being changed for the first time since rolling out of the factory, and during the following few years there was a total of 8 bodies found hidden in the exact same way throughout then-soviet Lithuania. This was somewhere between 1961-1967 i think, and all the tractors were from the same factory

It's quite funny how you use typical American imagery to show the pictures of life in Soviet Union.
It’s funny how you don’t
Media blackouts are funny
Let me guess, you was expecting bears, militaries, streets full of drunkards, buildings covered in tons of snow outside and inside. Am i right?
Even though post-Stalin USSR was terribly oppressive, life was relatively normal for those who complied with authorities. It just looked like a more boring, materialistic version of the USA.
I know, where are the bread lines?
I learned in psychology that serial killer profiling was largely unsuccessful in the United States. Sure, that's what law enforcement would do in the U.S., but their profiles were often way off. It's only on television where they are able to profile a killer and pin him down with accuracy.
At least they tried I guess
The profile would be built up using other information than psychological profiling, eg. Witness statements, location of bodies et.

Yeah Andrey Tšikatilo
There were a lot. Russian govt just didn't show it. That's it
They talk about him in the video if you watch it.
👏
They were lots of them, first case was documented like in 1920s. The authorities simply didn't allow the information to spread.
These cases were declassified in 1990s.
There is a Russian documentary series, Sledstvie Veli, which talks about those serial killers. If you speak Russian, I highly recommend to watch it.

Would I rather know about a serial killer in my area? Yes
I would rather know about an active serial killer than being ignorant. It would be easier to avoid someone matching the police files, and the time of day the serial killer is active. Same goes for my family.
Of course more information equals more paranoia but in this situation, paranoia is justified
interesting how someone can get the death penalty for suspicions, yet this man, that is scratched with blood on him walking out of the forest with a dead body nearby, has nothing against him? im sorry what?
Dead sentence is a joke to begin with. Law enforcement were never about justice to begin with.
Because he was a member of communist party.
I think because the soviet did really changed during the oil crisis in the 70s
That's the difference between being a known violent criminal and an "upstanding" Communist Party member.
The communist party was protecting him.
I'm kind of embarrassed to admit this, but for the first ~12 years of my existence, I used to think a serial killer was someone who really hated cereal.
I thought it was someone who put so much cereal down your throat it choked you to death

I listen (not watch) your video's on my commute to work in the morning and it would make things easier if I had more time to select the next video. Thank you for the great content.
Being aware is more important. In my city there was a guy that lured young children after school into his car by telling them he was gonna drive them home, he then just drove them far away from the city. School caught word of it and told parents and us. That's how I learned to never trust strangers 100% and being aware will make people more cautious when people do something.
That actually works pretty well on cutting down the homeless population in a city. Just drive a couple hours a away and kick them out
Soviet Union: people shouldn’t have to live in fear of their lives!
*Ironic*
Not really; it's more like satire. Reminds me of the Joker from The Dark Knight, because if someone dies from a traffic collision or while in the military it's expected or planned due to its common occurrence yet when there is a serial killer or a suicide it's considered heinous due to the lack of occurrence.
USA: we spread freedom. Ironically

“Why we think about American serial killers?”
- well maybe cause you’re ...American? Because the first one that comes to my Russian mind is Chikatilo(ussr serial killer)
Everyone only really thinks of American serial killers
;w;
Exactly. I mean there are books about him and a movie but why aren't there any serial killers?
Cool story sis.
Believe me: When I first read the title, the name of Chikatilo was the first which jumped into my mind.
Watching this right after rereading Child 44 was an eerie and interesting experience.
Chikatilo was one of the most known of them. Killed really a lot of people before getting caught and executed. If I remember correctly, one innocent guy was also executed because all presumed evidence pointed at him and the court found him guilty.
Funny fact is that Chikatilo was a teacher.
P.S. I wrote this comment before watching your video and I find it surprising that it almost exactly matches your content :)

I get the feelnig the "animator" of this series tends to reuse the same stock characters with minor changes.

“Why haven’t we heard about the serial killers”
It’s the Soviet Union are you seriously asking?
Answer: Some people are absolutely ignorant to the quality of information they get. If they can even accept sayings like “soviet milicia(police) didn’t knew about serial killer phenomena”. Imagine some of them even say “stalin is worse than hilter” which is the same as to say “hilter was better than stalin”.

No police investigated them in the USSR because all of the serial killers WERE the police or held positions in the politbureau.
USSR didn't have serial killers, due to the population density they had
mass murderers.
Russia's population density was pretty low.
Proud Titanic Denier Only because of eastern Russia, it was normal density where it’s inhabitable (west russia)
@@eliask6797 The East is still inhabitable, Vladivostok is an example of this. It's just that the North isn't.

commenting before i watch but Andre Chikatilo and Mikhail Popkov come to mind
Just a small mistake: Chikatilo lived not in Rostov, but in Rostov-on-Don, in the south of Russia
Title: fact
5 seconds into video: this fact is wrong
What is wrong?
@Andrew McMillan Yeah because if he's talking about David Berkowitz he was known as the Son of Sam, and the
.44 Cal. Killer the only thing the video is wrong about is it's well known that the U.S.S.R. had serial killers, even before it was communist. Rasputin was thought to be one of the most powerful and prolific serial killers, but since he was friends of royal family he couldn't be accused or arrested.
The serial killer that made the most kills is:
Josef stalin.
Such an original and funny joke haha

I agree with joey, we were click baited
It's absolutely crucial to know when you're in danger.
That's why its so important to mention certain information about criminals, like motive, ethnicity, background etc. So you know which people could be dangerous to you.
Also maybe do a video about the countries with least crime
Although the neighborhood and the children will be terrified, being informed helps civilians to be alert, hence lowering the chance for the killer to be successful.

Irony is ironically ironic

I think they should spill the beans on the serial killer case because it will be easier avoiding and getting him caught and locked in a room while the police comes.
They had plenty of serial killers. The worst one they had was Joseph Stalin.
Stalin would be called a spree killer under FBI definition, not serial. The difference is that serial killer has cooling-off period, while spree killer doesn't.
Ahh I see, however unfortunately it would seem my point becomes increasingly valid.
Stalin didn't do the killings himself so he is neither.

So basically, serial killers did exist in Russia but due to the lack of experience in dealing with serial killers, they didn't really know what they were dealing with. To my understanding. And it wasn't a very prevalent thing over there like it was here. It was very unheard-of. Also they didn't want to disclose any info to the media
