In this episode of From Russia with Fear, we look at the story of Lilit Mstoyan, a hyper-aggressive migrant mother in Yaroslavl who has spent years attacking neighbors, shop workers, and anyone who crosses her path. Despite hundreds of complaints, she faced no real consequences—until a school camera recorded her threatening to kill her daughter’s algebra teacher over a bad grade. We follow the trail of broken noses, online abuse and police inaction, and ask how one woman managed to terrorize an entire city block while hiding behind her status as a single mother and member of a small ethnic minority.
