That was sure a quick investigation.
It was quick, but that really isn’t so weird. The attack would be very hard to detect beforehand. This has been proven time and again here in America.
But in the aftermath that evening, you start reviewing the cameras, start analyzing cell phone movements, see the Mini Cooper. Go to the address and discover that it’s the victims same building. You find the apartment is empty. You get rental information from the property manager.
10 hours later, as the sun rises, that Mini crosses the border into Estonia with different plates.
Not that implausible. Not at all. That doesn’t mean it’s true, but it is well within the realm of possible.
And an Azov Uke woman, with a teen daughter in tow would easily be able to live in Moscow where there are tens of thousands of Uke refugees and people with Uke connections from decades back.
None of us can really know for sure. But as I said elsewhere, I sure wouldn’t stand inside a frag pattern of Zelinsky or smoke a cig on the front steps of SBU headquarters for the foreseeable future.
