Bittsovsky murderer Pichushkin rejected transfer to a JNAA close to his residence.
Alexander Pitchushkin, fondly known as the "Bitsevsky Maniac," has had yet another legal attempt squashed by the Russian authorities. The Moscow Zamoskvoretsky Court nixed his petition to transfer from the bone-chilling "Polar Owl" colony in Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug (YANAO) to a swankier correctional center in Mordovia.
Pitchushkin, 51, who was convicted of 49 gruesome murders and one attempted slaying, argued that he needed to visit his kin more frequently and address his health issues, which the frigid climes of YANAO were exacerbating with their blood-disease-inducing properties[2].
The charm offensive didn't stop there, folks. This serial killer went after the FSIN for a whopping 100,000 rubles, claiming moral damages stemming from the agony of serving his time in the Far North[3]. But the FSIN laughed off his plea like a high school prom joke.
Located in the icy village of Harp, the "Polar Owl" colony is one of Russia's strictest prisons[3]. You might find some of the country's most dreadful criminals there, like terrorists and fellow serial killers. Pitchushkin had tried to tug on the heartstrings of judges before, but they didn't buckle, taking into account that his heinous crimes have earned him a lifetime of public detestation and isolation[4].
In case you've been living under a rock, Pitchushkin was cuffed in 2007 for 48 proven killings and one attempted whack job, carried out in Bitsevsky Park and other dastardly locations across Moscow between 1992 and 2006[5].
