He might just "blend in" with the battlefield foliage and disappear. He could walk over to the UK lines and surrender, change his name and beg for citizenship. I'd be curious to understand how they will ensure he will fight. OWill they put a chain on him so he won't defect in the middle of the night?
Devil's Avocado, but how do we know the story is legit.
I find it hard to believe that the Russian govt would use 'send him to the front line' as punishment. It's equivalent to saying "all the brave Russian soldiers fighting in the Ukraine conflict are worthless and will die anyway".
Can anyone corroborate the narrative that the Ezra account is stating?
Makes a lot more sense to simply execute the criminal.
A search on Yandex for "Russian pedophile 9-year old girl courtroom" yields nothing, except this:
I can understand that Western media might not have any info on this, but can anyone corroborate the actual story? I don't speak Russian. Does this clip show anything but a criminal being dragged out through a security unit by what looks like men in military uniform?

Why do frogs just take this as gospel truth? Have we NEVER heard of confirmation bias???

Here in UK the Russian RT News is supposed to be banned but I,er, asked my friend and there is nothing about this which would be a huge headline if it were real.
I think it brings in to doubt the veracity of the Shadow of Ezra account, which i admittedly do not have much experience, but people just taking as gospel because some guy on the internet wrote it and it really fits nice and snuggly into something you'd LIKE to be true.... no thanks.
Far too low a threshold for belief and discernment.
Never in my American life did I think I'd be envious of Russia and its justice system.
Now a little friendly fire mishap will solve the whole problem.

I highly doubt that Ukraine would just let a known pedophile walk over and become a normal citizen...

Tie him to the front of a tank
