“We have discovered the true motives of Popkov’s actions, and the circumstances under which he became a serial killer, working across our region for two decades,” a statement from the Investigative Committee of Irkutsk Region read, which asserted that police had “incontrovertible proof” of his guilt.
The deaths of women between the ages of 16 and 40 “of radically varying social status” occurred in the period between 1992 and 2007, and were uncovered as a result of “establishing psychological communication” with the killer, who admitted his guilt.
Investigators say they have interviewed 900 witnesses, conducted 200 forensic experiments, and exhumed 20 bodies, including several that had been hidden for up to two decades. The bodies had to be recovered from “forests, lakes, and swamps with the help of heavy machinery and divers” often using pointers from Popkov himself.
Although his actions “gave reason to doubt his sanity,” extended psychiatric testing in Moscow showed that Popkov did not suffer from any “permanent or temporary” forms of mental illness, and was “fully aware of the nature and social harm of his actions.”
“The forensic sexologist has concluded that Popkov suffers from homicidal mania with sadistic tendencies,” says the statement.
