70-year-old Victor Mokhov, known as the "Skopinsky Maniac", was released after 17 years of imprisonment in March of this year. The first who managed to interview the criminal was the popular Russian TV presenter Ksenia Sobchak. For this, the journalist was condemned both viewers and many colleagues. Most considered that Sobchak popularized and somewhere even idealized the image of the maniac, which is not categorically worth it. At least as a sign of respect for his victims. Ksyusha was accused of paying for a dinner to the restaurant and joking with him on various topics during the conversation.
The same point of view adheres to the Russian TV presenter Lipa Tetheric. The former soloist of the group "Girls" is confident that the release of an interview in the world has become a real problem for the former victims of the maniac. Recall, Mokhov kidnapped and kept in the sharpening of two minor girls. One of them was pregnant several times from the rapist and gave birth to two children in captivity, the third child died.
"In an interview with maniacs both. One raped physically, the second rapes morally. Two people in the frame do not understand what evil is, and they are repeated, public violence over victims after 19 years, "tetheric tightly noted and at the same time condemned those who defend Sobchak, calling her interviews" journalism. " According to the 40-year-old TV presenter, communication with the criminal does not bear any semantic load and benefit to society. The interest of the public to detail only once is injured by former victims, forcing them again and again worry all the horror. Such an interview depreciate the tragedy of the victims and nullify the work of human rights defenders, psychologists and investigators, the Olympiad believes.
