Vladimir Seliverstov spent nearly 40 years in prison for brutal murders — yet he kept being released. Each time he returned to his village, someone else died. In this episode of From Russia with Fear, we tell the shocking story of a serial killer who mutilated his victims, cut off fingers and lips, and terrified an entire community. Why did the Russian justice system repeatedly allow a man responsible for at least nine deaths to walk free? And how many lives could have been saved if he had received life imprisonment earlier?
