Leukemia is a new one. They don't even bother making up plausible lies. It's all about sending a message.

Always has been.

The "ham-fisted" assassinations have always been about just the tiniest sliver of deniability while definitely sending the message "we can reach you" and not making a secret about who "we" is.

Yes, unfortunately he tripped while jumping out a window and sadly passed away shortly after due to unrelated heart failure.

I wouldn't be surprised whatever perverts Putin had conjured up to make him new poisons managed to make one that manifests similar symptoms to leukemia. It's not beyond him to try new ones out on his subjects who have fallen out of favor.

Gennady Lopyrev, 69, had been due for parole but was reportedly diagnosed with leukaemia on August 14 and died two days later.

Polonium-210 poisoning manifests as rapid onset leukemia...what a coincidence!

What does a corrupt mob boss with near limitless power over a nation get up to in his leisure time? I would imagine atrocious shit has gone down in that palace.

You gotta love a headline that presumes to know the motive for a murder

When you find a body without a head, you don't spend much time wondering what the cause of death was.
