In the course of its work and its battery of genetic examinations initiated by the Russian Orthodox Church in 2015, the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation has confirmed the veracity of the remains said to belong to Royal Martyr Nicholas II and his martyred family, though research and examinations continue in order to remove even the slightest doubt, senior investigator Marina Molodtsova said in an interview with Izvestia published on Thursday, the feast of the Royal Martyrs.

“Since case was resumed in 2015, 37 new forensic examinations have been carried out, including forensic (anthropological), molecular genetic, trace evidence, and handwriting analysis among others,” she stated. “In addition, various kinds of investigative experiments were conducted as part of the investigation. In some cases, their results allowed us to reconstruct a more complete picture of events.”

“Based on numerous examinations, the investigation has concluded that the remains belong to Nicholas II, his family, and their entourage,” the senior investigator said. “Nevertheless, we continue to collect materials and conduct further forensic examinations which we deem necessary in order to eliminate the slightest doubt. At the end of all examinations, their results will be evaluated in aggregate,” Molodtsova added.

For example, experts are now talking about making a 3-D model of the hat Tsar Nicholas was wearing when he was injured in the head in Japan, which is kept in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, in order to compare the damage to the hat with the injuries on the skull believed to belong to Tsar Nicholas.

This is scandalous. No rational person can doubt these are the relics of the Royal Martyrs. That they continue to be the subject of undignified poking and prodding is shocking.

Everyone except Alexei & his sister were interred some years ago in St Petersburg. I doubt they’ve been disinterred for any additional poking or prodding since then.

The evil scum that murdered the Czar and his family (and even his servants) were the same type of people that are currently running the democRAT party.

They will kill you and your children without the slightest hesitation.

BE PREPARED!
