Had he killed somebody else with his car, he would’ve most likely gotten away with it. But now that killed himself, he won’t kill anybody.
Case Summary
Name: Viktor Sivkovych
Age: 25
Next of kin: MP Volodymyr Sivkovych (PRU), father, former KGB operative
Place of death: Kyiv, Ukraine
Time of death: Saturday, June 25, 11:15 p.m.
Vehicle: Lexus
Traffic violation: Speeding
Cause of death: Crashed his Lexus into a street light in, car exploded and burned
This latest fatality comes a mere six weeks after Hanna Herman, a fellow Party of Regions MP, lost her 17-year-old son in a similarly shocking accident.
A friend of the deceased says Viktor was neither an expert driver nor a drinker nor a reckless driver. The man doesn’t rule out the possibility that the accident may have been an assassination plot masterminded by enemies of MP Sivkovych, a former KGB operative.
MP Valeriy Bondyk (PRU) follows the same theory and believes that the car’s machinery may have been tampered with. Bondyk trusts the investigation to determine the cause of the accident and claims that due to built-in safeguards “Lexuses don’t burn.”
The deceased worked as a bailiff at the Ministry of Justice.

The Auld Lang Syne of Dressing Up for Winter Holidays
Under the atheist canon of the Soviet era, New Year was the holiday, with Christmas celebrated unofficially in rural areas only.
MP Hanna Herman, PRU: My first New Year costume was that of a comet.
MP Alla Alekasndrovska, KPU: I had sweets in my hands, my crown was the shape of a sweet too, and with great delight I was a sweet.
Unidentified Orange MP: You’re going to be surprised, but I was nonstandard...um...I was a Ukrainian.
Irena Kilchytska, Deputy Mayor of Kyiv: One of the brightest experiences I recall was being a Gypsy. I was in grade three. I neither wanted to be a snowflake nor a bunny.
MP Volodymyr Yavorivsky, BYuT: I neither was a bunny nor a runny, nor a wolf. Once we went there, we dressed up: I was Karl Marx I had some book tucked under my arm that had Capital written on it. They fixed me a beard.
MP Mykola Tomenko, BYuT: As to an ani…animal outfit, I never appeared in one, as a rule.
MP Volodymyr Sivkovych, PRU: Well, I definitely never was a bunny.
MP Oleh Zarubinsky, LyB: I was a rabbit, in terms of the Chinese calendar. I have a picture where I’m dressed in a costume, in the white costume of a rabbit.
Viktor Yanukovych, opposition leader: There were no fancy toys, no outfits for me to put on. We lived very poorly.
Viktor Yushchenko, President of Ukraine: I remember how my mother woke me up early in the morning after New Year when it was time to go caroling, so that I would tour my relatives door-to-door.
Watching this bittersweet video made me feel like sining Michael Jackson's "Childhood":
Have you seen my Childhood?
I'm searching for the world that I come from
'Cause I've been looking around
In the lost and found of my heart...
No one understands me
They view it as such strange eccentricities...
'Cause I keep kidding around
Like a child, but pardon me...
People say I'm not okay
'Cause I love such elementary things...
It's been my fate to compensate,
for the Childhood
I've never known...
Have you seen my Childhood?
I'm searching for that wonder in my youth
Like pirates in adventurous dreams,
Of conquest and kings on the throne...
Before you judge me, try hard to love me,
Look within your heart then ask,
Have you seen my Childhood?
People say I'm strange that way
'Cause I love such elementary things,
It's been my fate to compensate,
for the Childhood I've never known...
Have you seen my Childhood?
I'm searching for that wonder in my youth
Like fantastical stories to share
The dreams I would dare, watch me fly...
Before you judge me, try hard to love me.
The painful youth I've had
Have you seen my Childhood...
Happy New Year everyone! Thank you for reading, thank you for lurking, and thank you for commenting:)!
