Ah, she looks happy. Leave her there.

She'll be found Guilty because she is Guilty. I doubt she'll be worth anything unless her sentence is of significant duration.

The ‘trial’ is political.

I'm confused, if she plead guilty why is there a trial?

Why she smilin, she happy in there or somethin 🤔

look at my boobs😘

How can she have pled guilty last week but there is a trial on the same charges this week? Is this normal Russian criminal procedure?

Guilty ! Next
