The judge of the Frunze district court, Vladimir Trofimov, was fifty-eight. Colleagues share: he was a modest and non-conflict person.
Andrey Solodkov
Chairman of the Court of Appeal of Kharkov region
Vladimir Sergeyevich worked as a judge for more than 25 years, of which more than 20 were presided by the Frunze court. The man was very modest in everyday life, non-conflict, there have never been any complaints against him.

Recently, Judge Trofimov did not conduct any high-profile cases. He dealt mainly with land issues. The last decision awarded 800 hryvnia for child support. But the investigation does not exclude that one of the reasons for the murder could be professional activity.
Victor Pshonka
Attorney General of Ukraine
The murder was committed either because of Trofimov's professional activities, or in order to seize the property of the victims, the third version is a custom-made murder

Together with the judge, the killers took the life of his wife Irina, the son of Sergey and the girlfriend of Trofimov Jr., Maria Zueva. Everyone was beheaded. Parts of the body were carried away.
Vitaliy Zakharchenko
Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine
One person was still alive at the time of cutting off the head. The other three are posthumous. These are preliminary results.

Whether the son of the judge was conscious, when his head was cut off, an examination will establish. After all, in addition to this, there are a lot of damage on the bodies. So far, the missing parts of the body have not been found. Such a crime, according to police, was committed by more than one person. There were at least two of them.

A daring crime was committed in broad daylight. From the scene, the killers hid unhindered. But at the entrance of the house where the judge lived, a video surveillance camera was installed. The investigation has already seized the records - they may help find those who took the life of the Trofimov family.

Law enforcement officers continue to work on the spot. The judge’s apartment was sealed. In the interests of the investigation, they do not say much. Even what exactly caused the death of the judge’s family - gunshot or stab wounds, do not specify. One thing is certain: the murder was carefully planned in advance.
Victor Pshonka
Attorney General of Ukraine
This crime was being prepared. It did not arise in urgency, due to some kind of conflict. This is evidenced by certain evidence.

The deceased Trofimov left his elderly parents. They live in the house opposite. Mother eighty-six, father, who in the past is also a judge - ninety years old. Now psychologists are working with them. And still they don’t tell the old people that the whole family of the son died. Parents are sure that their son is in trouble, but everyone is alive and in the hospital.

Law enforcement officers hope to get confirmation of their version by analyzing the video from the video camera installed at the entrance of the house where the murder was committed. Video detectives have already seized

Now the investigation is working on three main versions: the first is related to the professional activity of the judge, the second concerns his hobby - collecting, the third - contract murder. Now law enforcement officers are studying the registry, where the deceased wrote down each unit of the collection, conduct an inventory. According to the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Vitaliy Zakharchenko, the collection was rather big, and something definitely disappeared from it.

Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Trofimov was engaged
collecting different things. He had awards in the collection, including from the Second World War and earlier. In addition, he was a numismatist and was engaged in collecting porcelain and figurines. Today we are studying the registry, which is usually maintained by a collector. Electronic media seized. Now our experts are investigating this issue.

In addition, the country's main law enforcement officials noted, the crime was carefully planned and prepared in advance. At least two people committed it.

Law enforcement officials said that the heads of the dead have not yet been found.

One person was still alive at the time of cutting off the head. The other three are posthumous. These are preliminary results. The son of Vladimir Trofimov Sergey remained alive. But so far we cannot talk about whether he was conscious at that moment. Because there are numerous other injuries on the bodies.

The judge still has old parents - his mother is 86 years old, his father - 90. He is also a judge in the past. Now psychologists are working with them. Until now, the elderly have not been told that their son and family were brutally murdered. They think everyone is alive, but they are in the hospital.

Recall that the bodies of the judge - Vladimir Trofimov, his wife, son and cohabitant of the latter, were found on Saturday afternoon in their apartment. According to the Prosecutor General of Ukraine Viktor Pshonka, the murder was committed between 8:30 and 10:30 in the morning of the same day.

An interesting crime to solve ... but cruel, of course ...
Kharkiv operas, with such an influx of controllers, you will not envy: in such cases, they begin to prepare detailed certificates and plans for each day, which significantly formalizes the work and distracts forces from carrying out real events.

 

[Евгений СБ]

For the sake of the collection (or even some part of it) they wouldn’t do that. Of course, surveillance was conducted and the bandits entered the address, knowing how many people were there. Revenge for something.

 

[Андрей Захаров]

Inadequate crime ... With the cutting off of heads, of course, perhaps they wanted to put on a "false" trace ... Horror of course ... In the States, children are killed in groups, in Ukraine, heads are cut ...

 

[Hikaru]

With what hatred and cynicism it was necessary to do this ... This gives rise to even greater hatred in people ...

PS
Hatred will live as long as people are alive.
There is a lot of hatred in our world. The world ... How to come to it? But someday people will be able to break this "curse". If what is called the "world" exists, people will find it!

 

[Турабян Владимир]

THANKS FOR THE INFO.

 

[Роберт]

I can assume that in Russia, specifically religiously oriented southern individuals cut off their heads in Russia. And I very much doubt that criminals are mentally ill.
It is simply impossible to do this spontaneously. This is a well-planned crime, and it is committed by more than one person.

In general, I doubt that these are citizens of Ukraine.

It seems to me local, but well prepared.
Definitely an organized criminal group worked.
