The “Zyuzinsky maniac” from the 2000s pretended to be an exemplary patient in order to be released and kill the policeman who caught her
Maria Petrova operated at the beginning of the 2000s in the Moscow district of Zyuzino, hunting men passing by. She managed to kill two and unsuccessfully attempt on the lives of three more before she was detained by employees of the Moscow Criminal Investigation Department.
Petrova claimed that she killed men after she was sexually assaulted and became enraged by male attention. However, she invented new identities for the rapists each time – and therefore went for indefinite compulsory treatment.
At first, the maniac clashed with doctors and patients, refused treatment and even tried to escape, but then she “came to her senses.” In recent years, Maria became like silk: she did not aggressively, showed useful activity and even met with the very major who detained her.
However, in September 2024, everything collapsed. The second personality of 46-year-old Petrova manifested itself in the worst form – hysterics, aggression, and brawls began. It turned out that she had been preparing for a new escape for years, hoping to find the major who detained her and take revenge.
