The use of a slow acting poison is to make sure the target will contact the police, the point is to show the world what happens to traitors while maintaining plausible deniability.
Ah yes of course the old "make sure your victim tells everybody you killed them before they die" tactic.
Well I mean its pretty clear that that's exactly what happend
More likely it's too give the assassins time to escape. But ok lmao.
Well something like what you have stated, if the Russians only wanted him dead (so to speak) thats something they could have accomplished easily without a trace, they wanted this to be public without a doubt.
He thought he was in the SAFE house,get DRUNK
Guy's if you don't want to watch the ads then trick the video into thinking you watched the whole video by first watching the last 10 or 5 seconds of the video, then simply play the video from the start and like magic no more ads because you tricked the video into thinking you already watched it once so it won't show anymore ads.
You're welcome.
Thank you !!!

Go ahead and copy it if you want to, it's no problem. I myself learned that trick from other people.
Thanks!
A tragedy, but seriously, if you were Alexander Litvinenko, would you eat or drink ANYTHING that wasn’t at/from home - especially in the company of Russians!? And the police officers who went to Russia, they must have balls of steel!
Balls of steel?!?!
They went to russia to interview them as witnesses!!!!
Its cowardly
Any serious service will do as well as this man, any country Russia or America, France. once you get into that world there is no going back. I'm someone who finished school and college majoring in military intelligence... thank God I've never been involved in that. As a boy, it looks attractive, later you see what they want from you.
Did you really believe that story? Stop smoking shyt...
@@onceuponatimeinamerica-cha8578nobody likes traitors - theirs or others. They use them from all sides & throw them under the bus😂😂😂😂😂
triple agents on payroll from FSB, MI-6 and CIA do not live long I guess ...
The fact that he allowed his wife to take a photo for the the world to see what they’ve done it’s remarkable.
MI-6 job
So Sasha and his family escaped Russia, formed a new identity with a new name and yet was still contactable and agreed to meet with the other Russian agents that poisoned him and no one asks why?
my thought as well. why did he still meet with russian agents?
@@georgievillafuerte3171 he was using his spycraft, probably as a way of earning a living, which he seemed to like.
@@georgievillafuerte3171 Probably a double agent.
Shhhh you’re not meant to ask those kind of questions
They were ex agents, thats what he thought
If i was ex KGB who had just deflected...i would go completely off the grid and avoid meeting any kgb agents..ever
many i think do this
Impossible. You obviously know nothing about Russian cruelty and psychopathy in KGB.
defected. your not a goal keeper
@@PolskiKabaret ok vanity fair lol most AMERICAN NAME POSSIBLE. let's hear what YOU know about the KGB lolol
What would Navalny do?
It’s so sad. People who do the right thing get killed. This happens all the time. I feel so heartbroken for the victims families.
But do you think to raise up to that rank he had, he was to kill only one person, he had killed people before. He lived and died by the sword
That's what is happening in uganda for daily basis
Yes
Thank goodness his family spoke up
right and wrong are words for low iq people. There is no right and wrong.
I feel absolutely sorry for his son and especially his wife, I could feel her pain towards the end of the video.
I don't...fake.
They need to make a movie about this story. Probably one of the craziest spy stories I've ever heard.
If you spy against Russia this is a possible downside.
@@philjames6206 Sir, this guy was a KGB Russian spy for his own country-then left his country. Also, if he wasn't KGB and spied against Russia he would have received a bullet in the head, pronto.
@@rosestephanierodriguez9084 my lady, you are wrong. He wouldn't recieve the bullets for his betray. He left his country thats why we poisoned him
If you mean spy stories, then you probably haven't read many spy stories/novels coz in fiction novels, you will find many stories much more intriguing, twisted and thrilling ones than this one.
@@rosestephanierodriguez9084 im from russia and i can say that this is not correct. in his book he stated that he was working in kgb but then he has realised that his bosses were cooperating with russian mafia to make money. his bosses made a proposal - if he and his team will help them kill people, they will make a lot of money. They refused. after that they made a public statement that their bosses and putin were corrupted and basically gangsters and murderers. later he was arrested for 2 years, after he was released he managed to escape to london. our government killed him in revenge and so he cannot testify against russian president and his criminal friends-oligarchs
The medical team that provided care for this man did an exceptional job. The care they provided allowed this man the time to tell his story and allow his family say goodbye.
Noooo..
It was a slow acting poison..
What a wonderful thing to bring attention to. Your comment here warmed my heart.
>
Putin does not control Russian illegal hackers. Putin did not control Steele. Putin KGP are like FBI. Did the FBI deliberately set up and lie in Russia Collusion.? They said they were lied to.??? No difference.
😆 lol
Brave detectives.. taking tea after learning all the poisoning stories of polonium
My heart goes out to his wife and son. Hope no more trouble will ever come their way. How about the health of the family he left behind? And how about the health of the doctors and nurses who treated him and that of the MI6 and the Scotland Yard guys who interviewed him?
They should be OK cause’ Po210 could not penetrate skin or human tissue…
@@peterma594 Oh, OK. Thanks for telling me that.
My heart goes out to the first wife and two children he abandoned in Russia to run off with Marina. Funny how they don’t figure into the romantic fairytale of his life with the new family.
@@pippalefebvre5575 is this true?
@@irishman6517 Yes. Check out A Very Expensive Poison or even his Wikipedia page. He was even married to he first wife for a little longer than Marina. No one ever talks about his starter family. They just gloss over it and focus on his second family…making it into a fairy tale about love, devotion, and loss. Yet we all forget that fairy tales have dark origins. I just have problems with parents who dump spouses and children for a newer, shinier model.
The fact that they were able to get him back after he collapsed on November 22nd.... talk about world class doctors. I hope they were recognized for their hard work. 😔
That is a very good point. The doctors had to do everything they could against a clock that was surely ticking to a certain death. It gave everyone the opportunity to hear what happened and who was responsible.
It is a miracle this man was able to stay alive for weeks after this kind of poisoning, let alone speak in detail and answer police questions. This also gave his family time to say goodbye.
The doctors provided amazing care. It should be noted in medical journals what protocol was utilized.
@@kam0406 was all an act
@@charlieminaj2 Was the novichok poisoning of Sergei Skripal an act too? For someone who believes in conspiracy theories its funny that you would be on the wrong side of it lol
@@nicholassternon5857 novischock came from a military lab, like covid19
I ask the question why did we squander so much NHS money and resources looking after him?

Me too

Except over a half hour of ads thanks to post #1
He said they kill political. And. Highly business men.they questions is how many has he killed? What goes around. Comes around.do I feel for him
Same here, very nice footage...
Great job @realstories ❤️
What a great investigative piece of work
The wife is a very strong woman.
And a decent wife.
Indeed she is
You can see her heartbreak in her eyes....she truly loved her husband. I feel awful for her.
Sam Ali you’re an idiot 🤦♀️there’s no way that women knew anything!! It’s obvious that she loved her husband very much dumbnuts
kimigunny bb
This stoic woman, not outright crying, but narrating with pain in her eyes.... That’s the love of a Russian wife.
@Jose Raul Miguens Cruz oh god, so confident in ur statement. keep that up, you'll be spreading propoganda from a desk at RT before you can say polonium
@Jose Raul Miguens Cruz I know this will come as quite the surprise but ALL gov'ts are criminal.
most citizens inadvertently commit crimes every day.
I've never been scared of war or a bomb being dropped on me or my gov't arresting me for protesting against it. until this president
@Jose Raul Miguens Cruz also... we're believing ex-top FRENCH officials now?
for god's sake!!
@Jose Raul Miguens Cruz true.
@Jose Raul Miguens Cruz well they're FRENCH for starters
The hospital photos will always be haunting to me.
Joker
I have a lot of respect for this man. His dedication to what he believed right was unquestionable. And then... being poisoned and dying, and using all of his last energy to let everyone know the truth... He would be suffering so much physically, but he pushed through. And with a throat full of ulcers, you would prefer to be silent, but he kept speaking anyway. It's no wonder he reached such high ranks before.
I have no respect for traitors
@@SophiaR-wm5bn I have no respect for blindly following a madman.
It's so funny that this British team knew how the Russians love to poison beverages and edible items but somehow completely forget about it once they are offered tea😂
And the murder weapon(substance) was delivered through "tea". Yet it went over there heads
@@EzyExpress2bh they knew that if he was a true brit he can't resist tea
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Even I was wondering that . Pro tip: never touch anything in Russia 😅
Exactly my thoughts!!!
What a dreadful way to die...the fact he lived for three weeks is a remarkable testament of courage and strength. My heart goes out his wife and child. lastly, the world needs more people like this dude...people who stand and be counted when they see wrong doing...even if that means standing up to the might of Russia....Peace.
Polonium 210 produces alpha radiation which literally destroys cells. He was being burned alive from the inside.
@@AlonsoRules Yes Anthony, it is truly horrific to even think about. Thanks for your reply.
Horrible
#Wikileaks
He was a KGB officer have pity for his victims and their children and their wives
Dmitry Kovtun died of COVID at a Moscow hospital yesterday. Death came to him as a friend, and had Karma and Alexander Litvinenko tag along to witness his final moments of suffering.
Have you got a link I could read?
This shows how tough Russians are! He lived almost a month after the poisoning. Goodness! Rest in peace Mr. Lit.
Sounds like you compliment the Russians…
@@bottle3124 I do compliment Russians alot. They are tough and they scare me. So what now? I can compliment and dislike who I please.
@@AnAdorableWombat you disliked the video? Litvinenko wouldn’t be happy about that
Human are the most scary animal on earth.
Yes, capable of sublime acts of kindness and courage, and unspeakable evil as well. Quite a bunch we are...
Dude have u seen SHARKS??
Mosquitoes R more dangerous Than humans - diseases carrier.. Deaths by mosquitoes is larger compared to humans.. However with Nuk in picture - Humans R T most powerful species to destroy earth 50x time's
Scary is an understatement. Humans are the most wicked and evil hearted creatures on earth.
@@Scorch428 no shark will tell you, he"s friendly, you know, what you can get - they never promise to bring democracy
If they wanted to kill him in few minutes they could have done but actually they wanted him to suffer before dying and that's exactly what they got.
They also wanted to send a message to all Russians about what happens when you ‘betray’ the state
They show new agents the video of a double agent being burned alive, I forgot the poor guy's name but it was a well known case. The current govt of the Russian Federation sure seems to hate the west! Most unfriendly.
NOPE, 1ST TWO ATTEMPTS FAILED, THEY HAD TO GO BACK WITH A SHITLOAD OF PLOTONIUM TO GET THE JOB DONE, HENCE ALL THE EXTRA PLOTONIUM DOWN THE SINK
ZAK+ YOU'RE WRONG, THEY ATTEMPTED TO KILL HIM THE 1ST TIME AND HE JUST GOT SICK, 2ND TIME SAME OUTCOME, 3RD TIME WORKED AND HE DIED
@isalmeda you EVERYONE REACTS DIFFERENT..WATCH THE VIDEO..HE WAS POISONED THE 1ST TIME AND IT DIDNT WORK..DUDE FLEW BACK TO THAT COUNTRY TO POISON HIM AGAIN..THIS TIME HE HAD SO MUCH POLONIUM WITH HIM THAT HE POURED IT DOWN THE SINK IN THE HOTEL..THIS ONE WAS A CHARM..SO YOURE WRONG..HE WAS POISONED MORE THAN ONCE
It is scary to know that anyone could traffic any poison without getting detected at the airport
Right! They should be doing radiation testing. They can drug test things no problem
Wow, that poor lady. I feel so bad for her. That guy was a real strong guy. He was poison not once but twice. Wow what a crazy story.
My heart genuinely goes out to his family. May he rest in peace.
seriously???? for traitor ??? wtf???
@@jeniferlynn3550 you're a double agent.
@@jeniferlynn3550 wasnt he literally a jihadist?
@Travel Xplorer Thats what they say about him on wikipedia
My mum was friends with the killer
That man was pretty healthy/strong to have survived as long as he did with the poison in his system and several attempts.
He is a descendant of rasputin
Three times they came for him!
His body was top form, his spirit unbreakable!
Yet putin killed him!
I remember this like it was yesterday! I can’t believe it’s been almost 15 years!!!
Yes, me too..incredible

please elaborate kindly...
“It didn’t stop them from doing their job...they just did it in short bursts.” 😂That’s dedication. Well done gentlemen!
The thoughts of going to the toilets must have distract them from their objectives. 🤣
The laughter emoji means that you are heartless, or Russian spies.
This series was very good. I felt so emotional during it. Gov been doing stuff like this all over imho.
I got here from looking up info on the new drama serie Litvinenko and found it was based in great part on this documentary. I don’t know about anyone else but this gives me all kinds of creeps and feelings I never knew one could have or feel, so terrifying diabolical …
look into all the other people poisoned by putin one guy was given dioxin and survived and his face was scarred for life literally it looks like his face melted he was a political opponent running against putin
lesson learnt: if someone offers you tea, have them drink it first, all of it. better still, accept no offers from strangers.
Its okay to drink if you're not an important person, if you are well be beware 🤔👀
Right,,i gave watched many russian war movies and love stories because of ghus quarantine, hitler brought extreme damage in russia in terms of making lots of poison in coffe sardines riverwaters ,russia must have learned it and adopt even to thier own people,
Crazy that after the verdict, the entire jury, judge, prosecutors and detectives all got cancer, eh? Prolly a coinky dink tho.
yokehuatgoh they might put It in one of the cups
*Gustavo fringes joined the chat😂
intresting that his son speaks with a mixed british and russian accent
I was thinking exactly that, especially at the end of the video. Maybe he's not leaving home that much for his protection, dunno.
It caught my attention too.
Well both his parents are native Russians and probably spoke it at home, making him pick up the accent
Happens. Some people never pick up a non-American accent from me when I speak English. Some people have told me I've always had the mixed accent
How do you think he should speak? With no accent? He waa born in Russia and spent time there until, I guess, he was 10 years old and it would be very hard to fully get rid of his Russian accent, especially considering he is only around 23-26 years old now.
Amazing how a state feels threatened by one man and murdering him to silence him. It's archaic.
And then there is Jullian Assagne.
Well this comment aged badly now that Navalny is also dead. Deepest sympathy to anyone repressed in Russia. Nightmare of a state.
He was high profile , could have given plenty of secret informations to the British and compromise Russia . He was a traitor .
Nobody is going to be hurt by your death as much as your family; Be good to your loved ones 😢
This poor guy looked just like the plant workers and firemen of Chernobyl right before they died of radiation poisoning. Poor soul😓
come on he IS TRAITOR ONCE YOU STAND ON THAT PAT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT A GOLDEN MEDAL???
He’s literally bald
No Chernobyl victims looked way worse.( People who died and we're close proximity to the core)

The heart and courage of his wife and son truly inspires me . My heart goes out to them. Rip Alexander litvinenko
Fascinating story I managed to catch the telly adaption of this story with David tennant
Gosh ... putting radioactive substance in teapot . Imagine the next civilian drinking from the same teapot or eating in the restaurant. Imagine killing other innocent ppl
And the fact that he let him shake hands with his own son after they had poisoned him.
imagine being a traitor
Gotta admire the cheek of those cops.

lmfaooo!
It’s so wholesome to hear that his kid now has a proper British English accent.
Never again should he speak the tongue of his parents…
This is so sad.. The world is to cruely and unfair. We need to love each other and have peace of mind... This really breaks my heart 😔 💔. My big condolence to the family... Love you all. ♥
So you send a team of guys to the Russian Federation where the majority of people there speak Russian and out of all the people you brought you didnt bring a Russian translator?
Ikr!
although... only one agent is allowed to meet with each suspect
@@shemo_ghoul Then find someone trustworthy who speaks Russian. I'm sure MI6 has someone who speaks it and they are the ones that briefed the cops before the trip!
David Alexandrovitch it does not matter whom you find as long as they let ONLY ONE agent in the room. A translator or "a trustworthy" person cannot interrogate a suspect.
Also, the Russians wouldnt give the tape either and it would be useless again.
@@shemo_ghoul Nah i think you're missing the point. To each their own tho.
The UK police did a great job, under very difficult circumstances, to investigate the murder of Mr. Litvinenko and his wife and son taking part in the documentary (which must be hart-breaking) shows their courage and determination to find justice.
Justice for Assange
Dmitry Kovtun, one of the KGB (the FSB at this time) agents who poisoned this ex-KGB operative who defected to the United Kingdom by poisoning his tea in a London tea shop died from COVID-19 complications today, June 5th, 2022, in Moscow.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
To imagine what Mr Litvinenko went through & his family - I guess Karma took care of at least one of the men that poisoned him . A slow death possibly not being able to breathe for Kovtun . It's not about hurting others how they hurt you - but possibly a higher power settings things right . It's unimaginable for me that those involved could get away with such heinous crime just because it's all coming from the top & they above the law .?!

Zar_ ttg I Agree, we are being deliberately led in the opposite direction, lied to ,and fed tons of conflicting info. to keep people confused in these type of cases.i first realized this with the G.W. Bush gang.
Was it the horsehead in his bed that gave it away?
11:10 still so much defiance in his eyes, though.
His face really says "look at this, look at exactly what they did to me."
He was determined to get this message out, not just for closure for himself and his family, but to warn others of the danger the FSB representation
He refused to let this be covered up
Amazing story ❤
It's the disregard for other people's lives that irks me. Shame on politicians
RIP Alexander.. I pray and hope that you are happy where ever you are now.. God bless your family..His wife is a very strong person. She really misses him.
Incredible no body mention Putin.
I don't understand why people say hope where you are now that you're happy the man died he is dead he knows nothing I wish people would read the Bible and get more knowledge about life and death
@@feliciabosch8110 well not everyone believes in the bible
The scary thing is that possibly thousands of people could have been contaminated based on the traces found in the restaurant, the different hotels, the teapot, cups etc and the fact the poison was poured down the sink and into the water system.
To kill just1man as others not important to them except their target
@Jose Raul Miguens Cruz it has a half life of 138 days and you have to ingest it. what village is missing its idiot tonight?
Lmao exactly, if ingested you're basically living on borrowed time it's an excruciating killer.
Yes totally scary I'm thinking the same may God help those who has been contaminated.
A man stood for what was right. He was savagely murdered in a most vindictive way. Poisoning is the worst.
May G~D supply his family with ultimate justice on the ones who did this.
I so admire this woman...her strength and grace is remarkable! And cheers to the police in this matter - they were never willing to give up!
A million times the fatal dosage? Sheesh that man must've been in agonizing pain omg...
Iui OP 00
I really admire his wives strength, and I really feel her. His son is literally his mirror.
Wow, he suffered for such a long time. May he rest in peace 🙏

And the bloke who flew back to Russia? He's still in Siberia.
Probably because just like everything else...the full story to this wasn't actually told.
Calling him a traitor is revulsive. He was a patriot who respected his country enough to try to right a wrong. That's why he was killed.
😂😂
@@SawerMeatFactory no this was just internal conflict between killers, how did he arrive in such high position
This man is a hero, and Marina his wife, her words made me cry…she’s a heroine. This story is incredible.
how is he a hero?

@TheStatistnr27 didn't Hugo Chavez get poisoned by that also.
@TheStatistnr27 uhhh yes it was..
TheStatistnr27 Its being concluded that he was poisoned with Polonium
definitely not russias doing.
definitely a CIA job
Marina is a very brave woman. Alexander would be very proud of her!
Yeah, her rationality is extraordinary. Normally the wife wants some unrealistic version of 'justice' which is really more 'revenge' most of the time. So I admire her sense of reality.
hahaha
alexander would have been proud of me also, i cried while watching this piece.
She didnt know who was the real killer of her husband and is instrumentalized by the British Propaganda.
@@vidkunpurischkewitsch9598 If these events occurred in Russia against a pro-Putin moron, these killers would have long been dead. That these killers returned to Russia -after doing the work of evil - if your problem. They have probably killed dozens of ordinary Russians already!
I remember all this it’s crazy I stumbled on this today
I am so sorry for the loss of your husband and father. These things that go on are just horrific. Hard to believe in this day and age this crazy stuff goes on. I hope you both are able to move on and have a good life. We lost our son in 2012 . he was only 27. Its hard to move on, but we have too. We have since become grandparents and that was a tremendous help to us. Take dare.
Incredible story. I remember all of this, and it was obvious to pretty much everyone that this was state sponsored and directed. The average murderer does not have access to the substances used, and no other motive was present. We all knew it, but Scotland Yard went to HUGE effort to prove it beyond any doubt. Amazing police work.
Agreed
Incredible fairy tale... CIA known for poisoning its victims
CIA murdered JFK
Tbh it bothers me that someone at Scotland Yard wouldn't know what Polonium is. We learned that at school, ever heard of Marie Curie? She discovered it. She died from the effects as well.
Of course he knows. Remember this is a sensitive matter they have to play dumb.
The saddest part is the ruthlessness of the potential harm to the random person who could have easily been -illed, as well.
Thank you

I was brought up in extreme poverty in its severest form. Got so used to having no food to eat I stopped feeling hungry years ago.
He wasn't a spy. He expose criminals and they killed him.

Russian spy= criminals.
Logic.
so true he was a thief with berezovskiy if they spy they didnt do it fr free they just cant share the money cos berezovskiy wants 70% so they disagree n litvinenko went to meet god thank god
@@jeniferlynn3550 People he exposed violated the Russian Federation laws. And they do this to this day.
No. He gave important information to mi6, if you want to expose corruption you just give a interview to BBC not to mi6...

What about the people who still drank tea at that Millennium Hotel's Pine Bar? If the cups were washed and they were still emitting radiations, then weren't the guests at that bar in danger as well? They said that a high polonium contamination was found. It means that until they started investigating, other people could've been contaminated as well, right?
Kudos on the London Police and all those involved.
If a case was hidden for a decade there is a reason behind it and if it resurface again there is also a reason behind it.
Most importantly
the case was never hidden. it was open and public from the very first public interview and photos released of the dying man in the hospital bed. it simply took a number of years to come to the conclusion; the correct onew in my estimation.
Well said - this comment should be at the top of the list.
@real highlights The guy did interviews on the news before he died. Your an idiot.
I reckon both sides knew and agreed
I remember when this article was published in a Marathi local newspaper in 2006 or something. I don't remember clearly. And That article left me so touched after knowing what Mr. Alexander L. Had suffered. I was so moved that I had cut that newspaper cutting and kept it with me for years.. Just because I felt the amount of pain he must have gone through. I was sensitive to that. It's only today that randomly I've found what happened further with his investigation case. I'm glad His story was told and heard. I prayed in 2006 too that May his soul rest in peace and it's May 2020..i still Pray He rests In PEACE.
so sweet of you
Such a dreadful story.
How cruel people can be.
People can learn and protect themselves from this outcome.
Know your enemy.
The medical team were exceptionally exemplary , caring and professional
So impressive ❤
Putin would be watching this and saying: "huh, they know nah-thing".
The rules of secret code
why he has to meet those Russian guys again Nobody knows for sure maybe British did it
@@JamesBond-oe5px i think so
@@JamesBond-oe5px do you even bother watching the videos?
Mr. Bond, why didn't you investigate the matter in stead of those Scotland Yard people?
I think of this man all the time. He was so brave and he so loved both his country and his family. He wanted to speak up against corruption and his country failed him. I cannot imagine how devastating that must have been for him. Imagine how different Russia would be right now, how different the world would be right now- if only someone would have helped him clean up the corruption in Russia and stop mr. Putin
Pamela Homeyer Impossible
He was a traitor. Not to us but all defectors are the lowest scum and thinking highly of them is insane. You don't think they have allegiance to Britain do you? That is the plan after all.
then again, there's always Wiki Leaks
he was a traitor, had he succeeded Russia would be like iraq or Syria or Libya or anywhere the west toppled the government and installed their agents
@@anon-iraq2655 it's not the fault of the West anymore if Middle Eastern countries are unable to build healthy democracies. It's in the mentality, it's in the religion driven ignorance, in the clan mentality and the most important of all, the missed consideration of half of the potential of a country, women. As long as you will not manage well your ressources and potential, you're doomed to fail as a country, in the hands of crooks, corrupted and thieves. Sad but this is true. And before you rant about me being a westerner, i am not. I come from a poor Muslim country so i know what I'm speaking about.
Just tragic. He was a beautiful soul
I feel for this gentleman's wife and child this poor child seems to be as strong as he's father and mother..
My hate goes off to he's wife what a truly amazing woman......
He who liveth wickedly can hardly die honestly. You don’t become a lieutenant colonel in the most secret department of the most secret agency for nothing.
So true. It always ends badly, sadly.
SCOTLAND YARD trip to Russia was a total mockery of the investigation.
Nzarama they were laughing at them. The fact they were stupid enough to drink the very thing by they were investigating the poisoning of makes me smh.
They had balls to go there though.
@@staceyvanadder6040 but to also do the same thing you're being investigated for and under such a fine microscope... Would be plain dumb as well.
I feel he knew they'd keep trying to kill him. He just tried protecting his family by dying alone
People look innocent on the outside, but on the inside you never know what they capable of doing. May this man soul reincarnated to get a second chance of life amen 🙏
