In this episode of From Russia with Fear, we follow the story of 19-year-old conscript Artyom Antonov, shot in the head at a training ground in Primorye — and the lieutenant who killed him, freed from trial because he went to the front. We look at how conscripts are beaten and tortured into signing contracts, how forged signatures send young men like Nikita Molochkovsky to war and death, and why military service has become a shortcut out of the courtroom.
