Russian student Maria Butina was arrested in Washington in July 2018 on charges of working as a foreign agent in the United States without registration. A year and a half in prison, four months of solitary confinement and torture, more than 50 hours of interrogation in a concrete bunker, 1,200 pages of encrypted records of prison diaries that were taken to Russia after release. The media around the world wrote about this story, but no one was able to answer the question of who Maria Butina really is - a criminal or a victim?
