1) why Margaret came back with the watch ahead of time?
2) Why Nadia went missing on this day, not earlier and not later?
3) Why Nadia was crying that day in class? Do not say that this is a film on it so acted. Here’s something else.
4) Why is the body disassembled? Don’t talk about animals that allegedly pilfered and knocked the teeth and lower jaw! Maybe they have things neatly folded in a portfolio?
5) Why in the store bought stuff and school supplies for Nadia after her loss?
6) Why the fall Margarita told the volunteers that no longer need to look for Nadia, and she’s in some kind of cult?
7) matte no alibi for precisely that time, at the time of loss, Nadia. Sat on the Internet, says his father is not an alibi. Recording from surveillance cameras in the office was not kept and prove that he was there at the time or not.
8) They write in circulation that they called a “thug” and spoke about the car, which will carry Nadia over the border. Indicated time and place. So why aren’t they going as a family and did not go to stop this machine and check whether it is or not? They can gather volunteers, relatives, if the police refused to help them. But they did nothing! How detained one of “ours”, as they wrote in the appeal, all came to the rally. That is Stein for them is more important than Nadia. In search did not go – was looking for a kid strangers. It they need? Very big doubts on that score!
9) New year is celebrated, the music on all cylinders, according to neighbors. What is this? So they are worried about a missing child?
What grandma Tonya now such noise and developed a rigorous activity to understand easily. After all, Stein has his own company for the production of furniture, and a daughter soon to give birth to a second child. Who this crowd will contain?
Disputes and squabbles between the advocates of the family and Stein and their opponents lasted for hours.
Together with employed a lawyer, Stein has written the complaint that shall be subject to the beatings and torture, and very strong psychological pressure. What they forced him to testify and to take the blame. Through a solicitor Stein gave the letter to his father in which he wrote that innocent, but under pressure I wrote four surrenders. But these surrenders had not accepted.
The Stein family: the father and grandmother of Tonya starred in the show devoted to the topic of the missing Nadia Timofeeva, where all were convinced of the innocence of the son and son-in-law and the arbitrariness of the police and the investigative Committee. Complained that Alexander beat and mentally pressured, forcing him to confess.
In mid-July, the media reported about the investigation:
Assistant head of investigation Department commented on the statements of relatives that Alexander Stein used illegal methods of interrogation – beatings and torture. “We have inspected. He (Alexander Stein) gave the explanation, which says that physical violence had been used against him. He was examined by doctors. Not a single bruise on his body was found. Except for hematoma on the forearm, when his blood was taken for analysis. Here formed a small hematoma from medical needles. Nothing more.”
“We denied access to relatives on visits. This decision was recognized by the court as legitimate. Because the family lives in the same house: and the victim and the relatives of the accused. They live together, communicate with each other. Any information leakage under these conditions… the Contact had to be deleted. Now we have a large amount of work done, so maybe in the near future, a date will be permitted.”
The investigators, in addition to the analysis of biological traces that belong to Alexander Stein, there is some evidence linking Stein to this crime. While they are in the investigation Department while prefer not to speak.
“It’s been a very long time. The girl’s body and things were in an aggressive environment. A lot of clues and footprints were destroyed. What’s left requires a detailed study, conduct multiple examinations. To date, they have conducted a few dozen, and still have to spend about 10—15 examinations of various kinds, including several edaphology, Volkovetsky, quotes, computer, technical and others.”
The investigators also explain why relatives of Nadia Timofeeva don’t believe in guilt by Alexander Stein and require a re-examination of the remains of the girl:
“Here we must consider that the family lives in the same house. All communicate with each other. Naturally, no one wants to believe that their family member involved in such a brutal crime. Their position is clear and understandable. We very often communicate with his mother Nadia and see that it fluctuates, too. She still could not believe that the death of a child. Hence the need for her independent examination, she just isn’t ready to accept this fact”.
“Now Alexander Stein is in regional psychiatric hospital. A man passes is judicial-psychiatric examination. The suspect held a variety of activities to determine the degree of his health. Before him a range of issues. To hear them we can’t, as they relate to the state of his health. Furthermore, it is also and investigative mystery.”
Despite the fact that the term of investigation is prolonged till March of the following year, the investigators expect to submit the case to the court by the end of this year.
Chapter 22
Summer was coming to an end. Were the last days of August.
Rex! Get it! – Sergey threw the stick to the side of the river.
Dog with a joyful delight rushed for prey. Having found a stick and grabbed it with his teeth, Rex rushed back to the host.
– Well Done, Rex! Sergei patted the dog’s coat, and gave him as a reward a piece of shortbread.
Today was a holiday and Day of the Builder. The guys decided to celebrate their professional holiday outings. Ksenia, it seems, was happy to unwind and relax. Recently, Alexey was born their first son Ilyusha. Ilya was a terribly restless child. He was not allowed to sleep with their parents day or night. Diapers, undershirts, diapers, rattles – everything I saw Ksenia in recent months. Everything revolves around Elijah and his needs.
Go, relax, ' said the mother-in-law Xenia, knowing that they were invited to a picnic with friends, I’ll sit with her grandson.
– Mom, seriously? – asked Irina Alexey – could You?
– Well, why not? You’ve somehow grown up! Yes, and grandfather would help, if that. Yes? – Irina Vladimirovna smiling winked at her husband.
– Yes of course can handle it, let them go! – replied the grandfather. – Of course, they need to rest.
Leaving a child in the care of parents, Alex and Ksenia, as well as their zakadychnye friend Dima, his wife Natalya, Dima’s brother Serge and his wife Olga and Seregin dog Rex went out of town for kebabs.
The weather was wonderful. Such heat in mid-summer. There was a mild, pleasant breeze. The guys settled on the Bank of a small river where they are at not too large distances from each other were still a few companies. The people tried to capture the last days of leaving summer before the long, cold winter.
After dipping, the men began to cook the main dishes, which were installed a brazier and poured into it bought in the supermarket coals, and women were entrusted to cut sandwiches and salads. One Rex was running carefree along the shore. The company was planning to stay overnight, as temperance was not with them, and in the end, not so often do they go to relax! No really – to walk so to walk!
Sergey took out of the trunk of a car a box of bottled beer and a large plastic bowl. Making beer bottles into the bowl, he took it to the river and put to cool in the water under a willow Bush. The same thing he did with the rest of the alcohol. The party was fun.
– Well, come on, the Day of the Builder! said the first toast Dimka, when all preparations were finished and the boys finally sat down at brought a plastic folding table.
The Day Of The Builder! – picked up the rest.
– Oh, how still here good! – leaning back in his chair and stretched their arms blissfully said Sergey.
– The best rest is in nature, supported him Alex.
Nature really is wonderful! – looked around. Ksenia said.
On one side of the clearing, on which is located the company, there was a small mixed forest, the trees are already some places began to yellow and drop leaves. At the bottom flowed a narrow winding river, covered with bushes and willow trees. Water surface of the river was covered with a yellowed and crumbled leaves of willow. The sun was high, bright blue sky not a cloud.
– Here such silence and peace! I want to stay and not to leave! – squinting and sipping white wine from plastic glasses, said Olga. – And forget about all their problems.
– To win a million dollars and not work. Lying somewhere on the Cote d’azur! – dreamily held out Dimka.
– A million little. At least ten million! I would have gone to live in USA or England. – corrected his wife Natalia.
– What’s bad here? – she asked Sergei. I think everywhere is good with money, but without money where you don’t run everywhere would be bad.
– Do not tell me, ' said he, Natalia – still the security level in Europe is higher, and for children more prospects. No wonder all of our rich kids sent to study and live. The standard of living is higher than ours. With this you will not argue? Life more comfortable. What parks and gardens! Each residential complex has a swimming pool, children’s and sports grounds. For the people. And we? Everything was grey and dull, even with the child nowhere to go for a walk.
– Yes, – supported it Xenia. – Want our children to live in a beautiful, well-kept city, and not climb in the garbage. Want with peace of mind to go to school and not be afraid that the child may have something happen. In order to get a good education and find a job with a good salary, and not with a handout for the poor.So they had a future.
– In Russia people do to live well will not have to accept our fate, – said philosophically Dmitry – the only way is to teach children foreign languages and try to send them to study abroad with the prospect to stay there to live. The other option I don’t see.
Guys, why do you still will get better! Even better we all will live! – tried to convince them Sergey.
– Yes, only to live in this wonderful time I do not have neither me nor you! – laughed at his enthusiasm Olga.
– Yes well you! – Sergey waved his hand, – let’s better to drink beer and eat kebabs!
– And here is a thing! We need to bring the beer from the river, it’s probably already cold! Alexei rose from his chair and went down to the water. After a few minutes he returned with several bottles of beer in his hands.
– Oh, and the kebabs turned out! – gobbling appetite, extolled the kebab Sergey.
Rex revolves around the owner, begging for pieces of meat. Sergei tossed him piece by piece.
About a half hour later they decided it was time to cool off and went to the river. Rex rushed ahead.
Rex, get it! – Sergey put a stick into the water.
The dog rushed into the river and swam. Teeth grabbing the stick, he slowly turned around and brought it back to the owner. Having run out of water, Rex noise shook himself, splashing all around. Sergei took a stick and threw it into the bushes that grew along the shore. Rex once again rushed to look for the owner of the thrown stick. This time the dog did not come back.
Rex! – called him Sergei.
Some time later, Rex climbed out of the bushes with some unknown object in his teeth and ran, threw at the feet of the master.
– Same bone, where did you get it? – Sergey asked the dog as if he had anything to answer.
Guys, look what Rex brought! – called out to the other Sergei – do you think it’s bone?
– Give, – Natalia picked up brought Rex bone and carefully inspected it. Is a human bone, the humerus, most likely the bone of the child. Rex, show me where you found it!
Is it from one of those bushes got, – Sergey pointed in the direction where five minutes ago there was the dog, we should all see, maybe something is still there. Rex, follow me!
Sergei made his way through the undergrowth, the rest of the company followed him.
– Well, show me, show me where you found it! – spurred Natalia Rex.
Soon the dog led them to the place where he found the bone. From small holes, sakitani branches, could see a black plastic trash bag. The package was Isodrin. Sergey picked up a stick and tried to open the package to see what’s in it.
– Here someone’s bones, – rising from his squatting position, he said.
– We should call the police, – said Natalia in a tone that brooked no objection.
So we went on a picnic! With the Builder’s Day, dammit! – Dima cursed and spat on the ground.
The police came in about an hour. Police long examined the place and talked on the radio, trying to collect investigation team to site of incident.
The police and the investigation team worked on site for several hours. Except for children found the remains of a package with some tools. Natalia looked, said it tools for medical abortion. Rewriting the personal data of children and their telephone numbers, the police left, saying that later they will cause to the investigator.
– Let’s move to another place, – said Olga, – something I don’t want to stay.
Yeah, right, let’s move, – I supported her Xenia.
After gathering belongings and stacked them in the car, the group drove along the river to find a place to sleep. After driving about one kilometer stopped.
– It is necessary to put tents and a bonfire! – getting out of the car, ordered Dimka.
The guys were shocked. Alcohol instantly disappeared.
– Whose are they, do you think? – she asked, when the whole company was sitting around a campfire.
And isn’t the remains of Nadya Timofeeva? In the spring they only found a skull and spine? – after looking around at the others, said Ksenia.
I was thinking about that too, he supported her Natalia. – It is unclear why there are tools for the abortion? Is this what I think…
– Yes, that’s a turn… – drank brandy straight from the bottle, said Alex.
Sparks flew over the fire and melted into the darkness. A huge starry sky hung over the earth. It was like a deep dark ocean, stretching into the infinity of space.
Chapter 23
It’s been over a year since that day, never returned home from school, fifth-grader Nadia Timofeeva. Passions gradually subsided. Tamara Sosnowski this year there have been several important events in the family. First Alena gave birth to a little daughter Glasha. Glasha was the spitting image of her dad Nikita. In the spring they got married. Noted in the small restaurant. A lot of people were not invited – only friends and close relatives. Secondly Anfisa successfully passed the EXAMINATION and has passed in the tenth grade.
– Leaf fall, leaf fall, yellow leaves fly in the air… softly sang Tamara, looking like flocks of yellow leaves fall from the trees and swirl floats in the air, rushing to your last dance, before finally falling to the ground and become fertilizer for young plants. – Yes, that’s how people are. born, grow, Mature, give birth and dedicate their lives, their youth, their strength. Parents bring themselves, their lives, their children can continue to live and, preferably, better than they are. The race continued and was not interrupted, to continue life. The old dies to make way for new life.
The day was warm and Sunny. Tamara decided to walk along the alley, covered like carpet, yellow and red leaves. Up and down the alley walking, young mothers with strollers, old ladies sit and dedulki with chopsticks. Tamara sat down on one of the benches. Leaning back in the seat, she looked up: tall trees below seemed even higher. “The Golden rain! Like a fairy tale!” thought Tamara. In such moments it seems that you fell into a parallel world – everything is so unreal and fantastic, not at all like the gray days. As if opening the gates to other dimensions.
– Girl! It is possible to meet you? – Tamara heard the familiar male voice.
– Warbler! Hi! How come you’re here? surprise the woman exclaimed.
Lobov sat down next to Tamara on the bench.
– Parents came to stop by. Here, we decided to walk… the Day today is wonderful!
– Yes!
– Let me take you? – Lobov suggested Tamara.
“Come on,” Tamara rose from the bench and took the man by the arm. How’s that going Timofeeva Nadi? she asked, after awhile.
– Prepare case for transfer to the court.
– So Stein still found guilty?
It’s not like he was just… Opened up new circumstances.
What do you mean?
– Find the remaining parts of the body and something else…
– Who found it?
The people rested on the river on the Day of the Builder. The dog accidentally dug up.
– And what else is found?
– Tools for abortion.
What?
– Yes, Yes…
– What does it all mean? What happened there?
– The mother of Nadia, as you know, was constantly on the watches, together with her husband – the stepfather of Nadi. A young woman, wanted to arrange his personal life. In General she had no daughter. Nadia lived in the same house with my aunt, who was her almost nothing, because Margarita and Sonya were half-sisters by the father, and her husband. Sonya recently gave birth and spent a lot of time with the child, often had no time for her husband. And then next up was Nadia. The girl is pretty and precocious, it more attracted to older in age, about this and her mother said repeatedly. The girl has such age when they begin to fall in love and often in guys much older than themselves. Moreover, Stein was also a womanizer, he knew how to behave with women, they have had success. Nadia fell in love with him. By the way, on her page in social networks was the status of “in Love.”
Yeah, I heard about that…
In short, he seduced the girl, and they meet periodically. Stein drove and took Nadia out of school and he had the opportunity to do so. Wife, as always, took no notice, and not prior to that she was.
In those September days, when Margarita was once again left on watch, Nadia complained about the health of his aunt Sonia. Nadia explained to her that slept with the boy when he was at his other aunt on the sea. Almost all summer Nadia lived with twin sister Margaret Thani. Sonia bought a pregnancy test. The hunch was correct – Nadia was pregnant. Sonia immediately rushed to call her, so she came back and solved the issue. This explains her premature return from the watch. As you know, I think Margaret would be the medic.
– Yes, Yes…
– So, they decided to make their own clandestine abortions.
– Oh, my God!
– Nadia knew what to expect, and therefore cried in the lesson, explaining that the film is so influenced it.
They decided to conduct an abortion in the bath to make it easier to wash away the bloodstains. In short, there was a “medical error” and Nadia died.
– Jesus, what a mess! said Tamara, already knowing what happened next.
– Sonya and Margarita confused, she rushed to call the matte to work. He came, and they began to decide what to do next. The whole company appeared to be tied by blood. Mother and Sonia had in fact committed the homicide, and were afraid of criminal liability. Stein, knowing from whom Nadia was pregnant, especially. After all, the fetus could learn whose baby it is. It’s pedophilia, abuse of the juvenile… Criminal liability, disgrace, trouble with his wife and family, the problems in the area and so on and so forth. In General, he convinced her that the body needed to get rid of and make it look like a kidnapping or missing. Getting rid of the body he took over, and Margaret was sent to school to play the role of a mother who did not wait for the daughter from school and look for her. Sonia stayed at home to remove traces of abortion.
Stein asked his friend to borrow him some time in the garage for a fee, of course. There he dismembered the body. He could not prevent the body found, I’ve already explained why. He tried to get out of the garage, but didn’t manage to do it completely, as rose a strong sensation that the criminals didn’t count. Had tataritsa. After all, the extra movement in the garage could cause suspicion. Everywhere roamed volunteers. They decided to wait for another chance to get rid of the body and things. Wait until it dies down and people forget about it. But then again something happened that broke their plans – the result was the video was found and it was decided to search the garages in the area treatment facilities.
The garage owner heard about this, got rid of the remains and belongings, throwing them in the lake. Well and further you know.
They tried to refuse the remains, did not recognize the results of the examination, strongly delayed the investigation. But how much rope does not curl, and the end will be.
– As far as I know, Sonia gave birth again. She became pregnant immediately after the loss to Nadi?
– Yes, because in this case relies deferment until the child reaches 14 years…
– I thought. I do not understand why Margaret and her husband bought things for the girl, knowing that she’s dead?
– I think that was just acting. Convince everyone that believe that Nadia is alive, something like that.
Autumn Margarita told the volunteers that Nadia is in a cult and don’t need to look for?
– I think that trying to direct the investigation and public opinion on a false trail. Because, as you know, the brother of the mayor of the city is the rector of “Watchtower”. They knew that if you throw this version in the people, the people will believe it. In short, I tried to manipulate public opinion and confuse and volunteers and the result. They didn’t expect such a public outcry. Thought it quickly dies down and the case will be closed. But things don’t go as they expected.
– How it all terribly! Because it’s mother was killed, albeit inadvertently, my child. But worst of the other as she covered the tracks, played the show…
Is the shock for you, but I have seen in my practice this! I have long been surprised at nothing.
– And yet…
– Well, now you’re talking! I gotta go, go?
You know I still walk here, you go.
I’m not a baby!
– Say hi to your parents! Tamara stared thoughtfully after the departing classmate.
Thank you, I will!
Tamara took some time along the alley. Seeing a bench, I decided to take a seat. From heard ideas floated around in my head like the leaves in the wind. Tamara tried to put his feelings in order. She imagined herself in the place where Nadi, the place of Margarita. The whole situation seemed terrible and not fit in the head. Here is a little girl who loves her mom, waiting for her arrival, trusts her. Nadia even thoughts could not occur that the closest her man a mother can betray her. As for the child, mother is everything. It was his protector, his guardian angel from all evil, from all ills. This is the worst betrayal ever.
Now Margarita. She gave birth to a girl, one she was raised for 11 years. Fed and clothed, walked with her, played, bathed. Bought beautiful dresses, shoes, tying bows. Nadia she said her first words, she took the first steps, it ran with joy and pain. Her most loved and waited for. And then it happened what happened. Mother helps to hide traces of murder of his own child. Aware that her daughter was dismembered and scattered the pieces throughout the County. She plays crazy performances, trying to convince everyone that believes that her daughter is alive. Mythical appeals to the kidnappers to return her daughter.
It all seemed so crazy Tamara. she was afraid to go crazy just thinking about it. It was frightening to imagine what thoughts might be on this woman. No, a normal person even think about such scary!
Lost in her own thoughts, Tamara didn’t notice her on the bench sat a gray-haired old man, somewhat reminiscent of Professor of a University or Academy.
– You believe that life does not end with the death of the body that There is! there’s something or someone? suddenly he turned to Tamara.
Tamara looked up from his thoughts and looked at his neighbour on the bench. Academician, as she called the old man himself, sat with his elbows on the cane and looked at her.
– I don’t know – somehow confused said the old woman. – Maybe something is There, we just don’t know what it is. It’s certainly not something we talk about different religions. It seems to me that the world multilevel. And with the level on which we now stand, we cannot see and perceive other, higher levels, but “they” can to watch us and “lead” us.
Yeah, I know this theory, – said the academician. – I think the person being at a certain level, in this case on our need to completely know him from all sides. Fully explore. To explore the role of victim and into the role of executioner, in the role of teacher and student, women and men, parent and child. To know the joy and suffering, poverty and wealth, joy, health and sickness, love and hate, good and evil. And when he completes all the lessons, you will be able to upgrade to a new, higher level of consciousness.
– Well, at least this concept is logical and explains a lot. supported him, Tamara.
Yeah, that explains a lot… I have for many years, much has been lived and experienced. Whole life we learn, develop and try to understand themselves and the world around. It would be too wasteful from the universe, if it all just vanished without a trace. There doesn’t make any sense… Why create such a highly evolved creature like man? After all, it would be easier if the world was inhabited by infusoria and amoebas. The universe or “God” is reasonable. Nothing is wasted, every event has meaning, we just don’t always understand it. Sometimes the meaning of this event becomes clear only after many years…
Someone There showing her how to tie our destiny. And only when it is completely woven – you can see the whole intricate pattern. Pattern from many lifetimes and reincarnations. And every event in one individual’s life will find their place and meaning.
– I really hope so… I Hope that our sufferings and hardships of life is not meaningless. I’d like to believe that the world still has justice. If not, this world is not worth a brass farthing.
Tamara sighed, remembering the recent conversation with Lobov.
– Once there was one single God. He divided himself into billions, trillions of little particles. Each particle has the potential of the whole being. But to become like God, you need to comprehend all facets of life. To discover the “good” and “evil”. We are all prospective Gods. We are the children of the Gods…
