Did he say, "Kill this man," no, probably not.

Did he say, "Take care of this problem," I'm willing to bet.

I mean. Being locked in a Russian prison is not good for your health. The system is working as intended.

It's actually preferable for Putin for a few different reasons if it's simply a slow death because of unlivable conditions, than to have someone take him out back and shoot him quickly or something like that.

But yes, the system is working 100% as intended; this is a feature.

Over six thousand prisoners died behind bars in America during 2020. It turns out that prisons are awful places with awful conditions that lead to people's death.
