HORRIBLE CRIME IN RUSSIA.
GIRL MUTILATED BY A DEGENERATE.
St Petersburg, March 27
A youth named Ratkowitsch, a magistrate's son, who is an extraordinary degenerate, has been sentenced to 8 years' hard labour for strangling and stabbing a young girl.
Thirty-live wounds were found in the body of the girl.
Datokewitsch's wiary showed that ho sought to analyse his own feelings while mutilating his victim, whom ho selected at random.
The fact that the prisoner was a minor mitigated the sentence.
