What first looked like a tragic accident in the village of Ushanka—where 17-year-old Milena, a farmer’s daughter, was found with horrific injuries inflicted by domestic pigs—quickly turned into a murder investigation. When Milena’s parents were away, she was looking after the farm. She went to feed the livestock and never returned. Her body, severely mangled, was found by a family friend. The initial theory of an animal attack collapsed when investigators realized the schoolgirl was struggling not with a bull, but with a person.
