A Russian model who labeled Vladimir Putin a "psychopath" was discovered dead and placed inside a bag, according to a source. Gretta Vedler, 23, went missing a year earlier after an anti-Putin social media rant, but the two occurrences don't appear to be connected.
"Vedler's ex-boyfriend Dmitry Korovin, 23, has now confessed to strangling her to death before driving her 300 miles to the Lipetsk region and abandoning the body in the boot of a car.." writes the Daily Star.

Korovin admitted to investigators that he spent three nights in a hotel room with her body, which was placed in a newly acquired bag. The man then kept her body in the trunk for a year, posting to her social media profiles to give the appearance that she was still alive.
"I can only assume, in my opinion, clear psychopathy or sociopathy is seen in him. For psychopaths, it is important to constantly experience a sense of fullness and sharpness of life, so they love risk, intense experiences, intense communication, intense activity - an intense and dynamic life," wrote Vedler.
