«If an artist is popular, then he should respond popularly, twice as much as an ordinary person. I behaved as usual, but they say, ugly … I don’t feel any negativity towards the victims and I won’t. They are in great pain, I am very sorry for them, I am sorry and I am worried for them, “he said at the beginning of his speech.

Efremov said he was not going to «apologize “and went to court to establish the truth,” and again turned out to be wrong. “According to him, he did not admit guilt because «He doesn’t really remember hitting ”and wanted to see evidence.

«If he had gotten rid of it, he would have been right. Recorded a video, they said it was playing. The strangest thing is that I don’t remember the hit. They say that to remember you have to drink the same amount, but I don’t drink all this time, ”he said and raised his hands.

56-year-old actor named alcohol «wild evil “, in which you must know when to stop, otherwise «you will go to the bunk for 11 years. “

Efremov added that “whatever he did, he didn’t.” He asked the court to pass a just sentence:

«11 years old, not enough or what? Your Honor, I regret it and admit my guilt, yes, of course I did … I really love the people, the children, my wife. I never considered myself a star. If there were a simple person here, they wouldn’t be 11 years old, so seven or eight. 11 years old – very bloody. Of course, I’m afraid I won’t live. Therefore, it is a death sentence. And I only have one wish: I ask the court to give me a fair sentence. “

Efremov also read his poem at court, dedicated to the late Sergei Zakharov:

Sergey, we didn’t know each other.

Our knowledge became terrible.

I was in an alcoholic coma

And you died in vain.

Yes, Sergei, I can survive your death

Everything that will happen next, only in your name.

I will pray if I can hold on

Until the moment that we are together

Where nobody gives up and nobody gets angry.

There are no such concepts in the next world.

Everyone there, like you, have bright faces

They won’t take me there, there are no democracies …

The final verdict for the actor will be released on September 8.

On the night of June 8, Mikhail Efremov suffered an accident in the center of Moscow.

The actor drove into the opposite lane at high speed, drove a solid stunt double and crashed into a truck. The examination showed that Efremov was drunk.

The driver of the second car was hospitalized with serious injuries, died in hospital.

Efremov was questioned as a suspect. If guilty is established, the actor faces up to 12 years in prison. The prosecution requested 11 years in a general regime colony for him, the actor’s lawyer, Elman Pashayev, asked to be sent to a colony-settlement so that he could see the children.
