ONE YEAR AFTER RASPUTIN'S DEATH
First anniversary of the murder of the mystic who led the country to ruin
The man was just peasant born in 1869 (Pokróvskoye) who hardly knew how to write. However in 1897 he made a pilgrimage to the Verjoturie monastery where he learned a little theology.
He had a great personality, a deep charisma, a very penetrating gaze and a grat power of oratory.
So despite his rough appearance and unscrupulous sex, he was even able to reach the Royal Family.
This happened due to hemophilia suffered by Zarévith Alekséi Niloláyevich Románov, heir to the Russian Throne. Tsarina Alejandra and Tsar Nicholas II sought help in Rasputin since Alekséi was their only made chils. From 1907 Rasputin became the savoir of the Royal Family, because he was able to calm the disease. But not because he knew, but because he was able to calm the family, which in turn calmed the child.
However, his reputation fell due to countless relationships he had with aristocratic women. And even members of the Church broke into him, they even tried to cut his penis.
Because of his bad influence on the Royal House, discontent among aristocrats was increasing.
So that day they decided to murder him. The plan was to lure Rasputin to Yusupov's palace.
He went there, despite having received a warning of dager.
Once there, Yusúpov made him wait for the grand duchess, while she was supposedly serving other guests, in a basement room where he was served wine and some cyanide-poisoned cakes.
When Yusúpov saw that the poison didn't take effect he decided to shoot him with a Browning pistol. after this, the body was taken to be thrown over the Bolshoi Petrovsky Bridge into the Neva River, where, according to the autopsy, he died of drowning.
His death was good for the majority of aristocrats, including the other members of the Royal Family who after it distanced themselves from the Tsars. and it was bad for some peasants who felt that Rasputin was also a martyr.
