Stanislav Ivanovich Rogolev (Russian: Станислав Иванович Роголев, February 14, 1941 - June 19, 1984) was a Soviet serial killer. For one and a half years he attacked 21 women, killing ten of them. In 1980, Rogolev was convicted four times, and charged once with rape. According to writer Alexander Chekhlov, Rogolev was the informer of Aloizs Vaznis, a police officer, who, in turn, tried to shield Rogolev.[1] In particular, he gave Rogolev full information about the crimes, fabricating a confession in which he could be declared insane. It was also believed that Rogolev had information about the progress of the investigation. According to a writer and lawyer Andris Grūtups, Rogolev was a secret agent of the deputy minister, General Anrijs Kavalieris.[2]

The shock is still too soft a word to describe the state in which Latvia was in the early 80's. Schoolgirls went to classes in close-knit groups, husbands greeted wives from late trains, and all over the place were reinforced police detachments. In every doorway, law-abiding citizens, frightened by a man, seemed to see the worst and most bloody maniac of Latvia of the Soviet period - Stanislav Rogolev.

  • On October 26, 1980, near the Jumprava station, Rogolev threatened a 17-year-old girl with a knife, dragging her into a nearby forest. When she started screaming, he beat her with the knife handle and tried to rape her, but couldn't. The girl escaped and reached her home, where her relatives lived.
  • On November 8 in Salaspils, near the Dole station at seven in the morning, Rogolev twice stabbed a 44-year-old woman in the stomach because she did not want to talk to him. She survived the attack.
  • On November 18, together with Aldis Svāre, Rogolev beat and raped a woman, who managed to escape.

Investigation

Wanted: Stanislav Ivanovich Rogolev, born in 1941. Height 180 cm, solid, athletic build, weight 100 kg; hair is dark, wavy.

To catch the maniac, a special detective group was formed. It is believed that Rogolev had information about the investigation process did not give any success to the detective group. After the murder in the "Juras Perle" group, police experts went on an unprecedented measure: they took fingerprints from all the bottles that were on the tables that evening. And they then calculated Rogolev's fingerprints. After the criminal was put on the wanted list, his accomplice Svāre turned himself in to the Dubulti militia and suggested that Rogolev possibly resided in Ulbroka. The police, after this incident, received an informal order not to take him alive.[3] Rogolev was detained by two young police officers, who did not know about the unofficial order. He tried to escape during the detention, but Rogolev was incapacitated by the officers and fell down on the ground. Evidence and tools from the crimes were found in his apartment. Rogolev himself willing confessed after the detention. Psychiatric examination under the leadership of Prof. Shostakovich from the Serbsky Center recognized Rogolev as sane. The lawyer tried to appeal this decision, arguing that during the war Stanislav and his mother were bombed and buried alive, and excavated only after a few hours. All his life Rogolev had suffered from hallucinations, drank diazepam and other potent medicines, which, when paired with alcohol could cause increased aggressiveness. And in prison he was always beaten, because he was convicted for rape. Rogolev was sentenced to death and executed by firing squad in Leningrad on June 19, 1984.[4] The case was conducted by the investigator for special cases Jānis Skrastiņš.

If you believe the police legend, after awarding him the highest measure Stanislav Rogolev behaved extremely apathetic and was completely indifferent to everything that happens around. But at the airport, when he was taken to the place of execution of punishment in Leningrad, already sentenced to seeing a beautiful girl, suddenly enlivened and said: "If I could have one more of this - and then ... shoot.
