In a heinous crime that embodied the battles of Napoleon Bonaparte, a famous old historian killed his girlfriend, 40 years his junior, using a weapon dating from the 19th century.
A Petersburg court sentenced a prominent Russian military historian and a renowned expert on Napoleon’s life history for 12 and a half years to murder and cut his body to pieces.
Professor Oleg Sokolov, 64, shot a 24-year-old student named “Anastasia Yishenko”, cutting her body into pieces and throwing them into the Moika River in St. Petersburg.
Police found the student’s severed head wrapped in a plastic bag inside his luxury apartment, while the river waters washed his trunk and legs.
The distinguished university doctor, who lectured at the Sorbonne and was head of the French Legion of Honor, admitted his heinous crime and claimed that his life had turned into hell when the court ruled to send him to the strict regime penal colony.
Professor Sokolov fired 4 bullets at a 24-year-old student with whom he had an affair, before ripping her to pieces with a knife and sawing them with a saw.
Using a 19th century model rifle, he cut off his body and stuffed parts of his body in a bag, and when they were thrown into the river, the police arrested him.
Sokolov claimed that his crime was not premeditated, and that it was the murder that drove him into a “complete frenzy” in terms of insulting his children whom he had fathered from another relationship.
