Alexei Kabanov Facebook pageBlogger and cafe owner, Alexei Kabanov and his wife and two kids live in Moscow. On January 6, Kabanov posted on his blog and Facebook account that had about 1,500 followers to ask of his wife's whereabouts. Kabanov had a tremendous amount of sympathizers that aided him not only with moral support, but also by assembling search parties and posting up flyers around the city. After some time, Kabanov admitted that him and his wife, Irina Cherska, had gotten into a fight and after that, she had disappeared. Kabanov alerted authorities, but everyone told him that when she was ready, she would come back or at least contact him, but Kabanov constantly worried and refused to believe that things were normal. After a week, Kabanov stopped posting comments. Police had found parts of Irina in fragments in Kabanov's car. After the evidence was revealed, Kabanov confessed to murdering his wife and chopping her up into pieces. After news spread, Kabanovs Facebook blew up with comments on what kind of a man and a person Kabanov was. "Burn in hell," was one of the posts that summed up all of the comments aimed at Kabanov.
