Has anybody noticed this gem from the Citizens United FOIA request, stating that Putin was indeed responsible for Mikhail Lesin's death? And for trying to oust one of Vladik's mistresses?
Lesin was head of Gazprom Media in the leadup to the Sochi olympics, and during the start of the invasion of Crimea.

Lesin was Putin's chief censor.
Lesin's daughter Yekaterina was in charge of RT's US bureau.

[ time frame unknown ]
Putin's purported mistress, Alina Kabayeva. was indeed head of RU's National Media Group, RU's largest media conglomerate, after an illustrious career as a gymnast (who was DQ'ed for doping a few times)

Rumour is that Alina Kabayeva had Putin's baby in 2015.
Lesin was killed sometime in the night of Nov. 4, 2015 the night before he was supposed to meet with DOJ officials about how RT worked.

Nov 4 is Russia's Unity Day.
Lesin was in the process of what might be considered a modern-day defection from Russia - and left his position prior to his death, which makes his attempt to influence Gazprom in 2015 curious, to say the least.
My question, though - if the narrative above is correct - why send someone to "talk to" Lesin in the US?

And why send them to have a "talk" with him just before he meets with the FBI in DC?
