Was it weight of secrets or the bullets in the pilot that crashed Russian ‘copter?

THE plot thickens. Following the failed assassination attempt on Sergei Skripal in Salisbury, it looks like the Russian state may have been forced to stop poisoning people who hold too much information.

After their bungled mission to silence the double agent, it appears those who may pose a threat to national security conveniently die in helicopter crashes.

Take Russian Deputy Attorney

General Saak Karapetyan – a former longtime ally of Vladimir Putin. He’s the guy accused of directing lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya, to hold the now infamous Trump Tower meeting with the President’s cronies.

For those who don’t remember, one half of Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee, Don Trump Jr (the other being his brother Eric Trump), lackey Jared Kushner and convicted con Paul Manafort all met with Veselnitskaya.

When the meeting was finally made public it was billed as a discussion about the adoption of Russian children.

In reality, it was arranged because they were told the Russian attorney allegedly had a bag full of dirt on Trump’s presidential rival Hillary Clinton.

Now Karapetyan has been mysteriously found dead in a Russian helicopter crash.

Maybe the weight of his secrets took the chopper down or more

likely it was the two bullets in the pilot’s body that made it crash.

Before his death this week, Karapetyan was in charge of the Russian criminal investigations into the poisoning of Skripal and his daughter Yulia in March.

Given Russia’s pathetic response to the Salisbury poisoning, claiming that two of their death team were tourists, I’m waiting for Russian officials to say Karapetyan’s pilot flew into the bullets.
