[LiberalArkie]

Russian billionaire and coal baron Dmitry Bosov has died by suicide at his home in a Moscow suburb, authorities said Wednesday.

Relatives discovered Bosov’s body with gunshot wounds at his home in the luxury village of Usovo in Moscow’s elite suburb of Rublyovka, the country’s Investigative Committee said in a statement. A Glock pistol was found nearby.

Bosov didn’t leave a suicide note, the Kommersant business daily reported.

Bosov, 52, ranked 86th in Forbes’ list of the richest Russian billionaires with a $1.1 billion net worth. He was a principal shareholder and chairman of the board of Alltech Group, an investment firm that manages anthracite, coal and other energy and real estate companies.

when shooting yourself in the back.

13. I think he was going for that professional richochet shot, banking the bullet off a metal

ornament, to the doorknob before it hits him in the back.

Took several tries.

3. I like the way the Russian mob handles things. They don't fire the workers, they fire at the bosses.

15. Three shots in the back of the head

The worst case of suicide the police in the area had ever seen.

4. What???

No window to fall out of?

[JHB]

25. Not for billionaires.

Occasionally people survive the window falls.

5. He committed suicide ...

By shooting himself 3 times in the head.

[NCjack]

8. ... with a single-shot .22 rifle, no doubt. And, no fingerprints on the weapon.

[abqtommy]

11. Was he found with his hands tied behind his back? asking for a friend...

[NCjack]

18. Yes, and 24 years from now, the cause of death will be changed to murder. A man will

be released from prison and will implicate Pres. LBJ and con man Billie Sol Estes, both from Texas.

9. Wait, is this the same Alltech Group in Moscow Mitch's Kentucky?

He was a principal shareholder and chairman of the board of Alltech Group, an investment firm that manages anthracite, coal and other energy and real estate companies.

[LiberalArkie]

14. Appears to be different companies. One ag, one coal

[FM123]

24. Yes, you are right.

Same name, different company, hence my confusion. Found an article mentioning the death of it's owner:

“Pearse will be remembered for his many accomplishments as a scientist and innovator, as a businessman and philanthropist, and as husband and father. In each of these, he excelled,” said Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
