Их тела до сих пор ищут. Дело Михаила Саплинова. Наталья Малахова и Екатерина Кузьмина. True Crime

How can you prove a crime without bodies? The story of Mikhail Saplinov has become a unique precedent in Russian forensic science. Ekaterina Kuzmina disappeared in 2014, and Natalya Malakhova in 2016. These two cases long seemed unrelated, until one piece of evidence brought them together in a nightmarish puzzle. In today's episode, we'll reconstruct the timeline of events. We'll examine phone billing details, witness statements, and the strange behavior of the prime suspect. How did Saplinov manage to hide the bodies so well that they're still being searched for, and what does role-playing have to do with it?
