Bizarre Circumstances Around Deaths of Russian Businessmen

Brian Taylor, professor of political science in the Maxwell School, was interviewed for the Vox article “Russian businessmen keep dying. No one knows why.” The article talks about a number of Russian businessmen who have died by accident or by suicide, some who were also allies of President Putin. Taylor states, “The number of [deaths] seems higher than random chance would suggest, but that doesn’t mean that it’s all part of the same story.”
