The Skopinsky District Court sent Viktor Mokhov, the Skopinsky maniac, under house arrest in a criminal case on harboring a particularly serious crime.

Such a measure of restraint for him demanded a consequence.

Mokhov was forbidden to use the telephone and the Internet, as well as to communicate with journalists and defendants in the case.

According to the investigation, on the day of the Airborne Forces, five acquaintances came to visit Mokhov. The company was drinking, at some point Mokhov decided that one of them, Shchukin, had stolen a goose from him. Another friend - Yevgeny Polishchuk - stood up for the "Skopin maniac", hitting Schukin in the neck with his elbow, and killed him on the spot. At night, Mokhov helped a friend drag the body into the courtyard of an abandoned house, the body was found a few days later.

In March 2021, Mokhov was released from the colony. He was placed under administrative supervision for six years with a number of restrictions. After his release, Mokhov gave an interview to Ksenia Sobchak.
