A former American city council member who is wanted in the United States on child pornography charges appears to have fled to Russia and joined the Russian military, according to footage shared by regional authorities in the northern Khanty-Mansi autonomous district.

Wilmer Puello-Mota, former city councilor of Holyoke, Massachusetts, reportedly left the United States on Jan. 7 in violation of court orders while being tried in Rhode Island for possession of child pornography.

The Massachusetts-based newspaper The Republican reported last month that people who know Puello-Mota had recognized his voice in a short video showing the capture of the Ukrainian town of Avdiivka in February.

    What he said was “let’s see how long he lasts”. You’re the one inferring the fast death.

    I didn’t move any goalposts. In fact I thought I made it clear that Russia wouldn’t let their little paedo trophy die.

    Of course I’m not immune to propaganda. Neither are you as you’ve made abundantly clear.

      “Let’s see how long he lasts" implies that he won’t last long.

      If you can’t understand this, then you need to improve your reading comprehension.

      I think you can understand it, you just don’t want to admit he’s wrong so you’re moving goalposts like I said from the very beginning.

      Neither are you as you’ve made abundantly clear.

      Correct, I thought Ukraine actually had a chance of winning at first.

        Based on the voting response of your comments, it might be your reading comprehension that could use some work. “Let’s see how long he lasts” doesn’t imply anything but an undefined timeframe. Just because you inferred something from that doesn’t make you right.

        Yeah maybe you’re right about what was implied by them, but you keep conveniently ignoring the fact that I said Russia will keep him alive while parotting “shoulder to shoulder” propaganda and making out like I think I’m immune.

        I thought Ukraine actually had a chance at winning at first.

        Oh. Hello again. Didn’t like being called out in your last account so decided to create a new one. Lol.

            Lol. Nothing on them keeping the American paedo trophy alive.

            See you when you come back with your next account to repeat that Ukraine has no chance and that you used to think they did.

            o/
