Timofey Podshivalov

From July 15 to August 28, 2011 in the Kirovsky City District, he killed four people - three homeless and an employee of a construction firm. On the eve of the first murder, on July 14, he had just finished reporting to his probation officer. Podshivalov tried to burn the bodies of his first two victims, but left the bodies of the last two at the crime scene. All the killings were committed with particular cruelty: he beat his injured victims with using his hands and feet, sticks, stones, even striking them with a knife and then an axe. Podshivalov also stole a tracksuit and a mobile phone from his last victim.

On August 29, 2011, he was arrested and soon confessed to committing the four murders. During a search of his apartment, the last victim's belongings were located. The forensic psychiatric examination recognized Podshivalov as fully sane and reporting of his actions. Initially, on August 2, 2012, he was acquitted by the jury, but the prosecutor's office appealed the decision through the Supreme Court. The case was sent for reconsideration, and this time, the jury found him guilty, saying that the perpetrator did not deserve leniency. On December 7, 2012, the Perm Regional Court sentenced Timofey Podshivalov to life imprisonment in a special regime colony. The Supreme Court of Russia upheld the sentence, and he was transferred to the prison on Ognenny Ostrov.

Podshivalov had been convicted twice before the murders: in 2005 for brigandage, and on October 28, 2010 for causing grievous bodily harm. In both cases, he received a suspended sentence.
