Russia’s Whistleblower Cop is a YouTube Sensation

November 12th, 2009

Via: Global Post:

Alexei Dymovsky sits in full uniform and stares at the camera with tired eyes.

“Maybe you don’t know about us, about simple cops, who live and work and love their work. I’m ready to tell you everything. I’m not scared of my own death,” Dymovsky says in a YouTube message addressed to Prime Minister Vladimir Putin.

“I will show you the life of cops in Russia, how it is lived, with all the corruption and all the rest – with ignorance, rudeness, recklessness, with honest officers killed because they have stupid bosses.”

And so Dymovsky continues, in a series of three 2-to-7-minute long videos released over the past week that have together garnered 1 million hits on YouTube, and caused a firestorm across Russia.

    Yep. I’ll bet they are watching this kind of thing in Russia. To watch a cop speak like a human must be a cultural phenomenon. Hard to believe, but beautiful and cathartic to behold.
    Watched Icon this weekend.
    Really long but a series put on DVD as movie.
    Wish I had time to rewatch.
    Check out all that virus stuff.
    Tee Hee.
