A Russian court sentenced a 15-year-old student to five years in a juvenile detention centre. Arseniy Turbin was accused of participating in a terrorist organization. According to investigators, he wanted to be a member of the Freedom of Russia Legion and distributed flyers containing criticism of President Vladimir Putin to his neighbours’ mailboxes.

The 15-year-old, Arseniy Turbin, was sentenced to five years in a juvenile detention centre by the Military District Court of the Second Western Region. The boy resides in the city of Livny in the Oryol Oblast. The verdict was reported by the Meduza portal, citing Mediazona’s information.

Turbin was accused of participating in a terrorist organization. According to investigators, at the beginning of June 2023, when he was 14, he wrote to a Telegram bot for the Freedom of Russia Legion and filled out a membership form. Then he distributed flyers with the text: “Do you need such a president?” to his neighbours’ mailboxes.

Two months later, the FSB searched his home. He was detained and put under house arrest with the possibility of attending school.

      There is a loaded gun in the White House. Trump is just the beginning, and i also don’t trust democrats to not abuse it either. Trump is just more open about how he will use it.
