9:47 am
metal metal. copied with russian shockley. yes, i'm a sick man, but you know, don't hold it against the heading to the northern capital of saint petersburg in american lives there whom the f. b i has been hunting for 18 years. he's on interpose a red list. they tried to extradite him to the united states from different countries for types, you know, lives in russia. i've been following his story for a while. and i can finally, personally ask why the f b i as after him i'm in st. petersburg rush right now. my 1st time and it's probably the coldest day since i've arrived in russia, i am feeling it to my bones right now. the pills are due to a tough how you doing for more years old,
9:48 am
the role of the frozen as well where you it's a motor on so you can feel anything. oh no you came. i think you brought this weather with you man. yeah, i'm not good either. so i don't know to go back it. so tell me a little bit about yourself. like uh what, what made you decide to come to russia? i received this island and so far as i know, the next man, if there's no need to get it. and that's american us embassies and 4 countries that come after me is wild. and so we have a couple of theories, the one that most people come to me 1st like, oh, there's just a bunch of bureaucratic mistakes, but there's no way they rate it. our house in 2002 in cyprus, they have a huge file and my wife, they've interrogated me, they visited me in boulder in prison personally as the i came, they tried to make deals. and also for microsoft, i covered middle east and africa and i had several intelligence agency trying to recruit me to work for them. and when i kept saying no, they wanted to make an offer. i couldn't refuse and they have a history that to and is approvable,
9:49 am
know because when they try and recruiters not like they leave behind a business card and say, hey, you know, i'm from the intelligence agency, but very clearly there are 3 recruitment attempts. why is it that the f b i is looking for you on the website? they say that i legally retain my son, which is not because i had custody of my son anyways. he already lived in europe the and you can prove this. yeah. you all there in and they said they told a newspaper, the indictment. they said that i physically kidnapped him, but the problem was i was in the united states and neither was he the just 2 months prior. the same judge who set this whole thing up, put him on a plane using please return to me because he was visiting his mother for the summer in the us and she didn't wanna return him. and the judge said, nope, he started the police take away, put him on a plane and then he the same judge, basically the foundation for get up and that whole thing's been dismissed, but the feds weren't dismissed there in the and he's, he's your strongest witness in this case and he is,
9:50 am
he's 27 now. yeah. he's done news interviews on american television saying that he was never kidnapped. and as all a far as the because when the f b i does he sort of things. the only thing is ever fixed is massive. publicity by what the social media sometimes just any dance or your laughter is you'll be thinking yeah, i'm a 49 year old bad man, but social media works right? yeah, i have a to 150 to these by now, and that's how it works. i had to order 2 police officers to physically movies my mother and put me on a plane but my dad hollis and i'm not that's a this is actual insanity. chad sun now lives in the caribbean and he's still on the missing children's list. and chat is still on a wanted list. were you ever contracted by the government? no, never. do you think maybe and this is just me being curious. do you think that perhaps uh, something that you may have worked on for one of these companies might be
9:51 am
a reason for any of this. i, i never worked on anything that was secretive or anything sort of that i have built software that's been in the space station is used by the government, right? but it is communication software. when i moved to russia in early 2001, i married into a family and lived with a family who worked in a military aviation factory. and they didn't like suite the floors or anything and it's not like they could possibly get access to military technology. they were engineers, they had a good range. okay. so these were close family members and we did in the same household for many years. and they had basically, i guess what an american be called top secret type. and it became pretty evident that somebody in the american halogens agency had some kind of wet dream that thought i could somehow blackmail my family to give me information. okay. it was never gonna happen. we never discussed this stuff. my family would never give me information about that. i would never ask. russian may have and i don't have proof
9:52 am
of this, but maybe they offer me this island because i believe russian was far about more case my chase than i do. right. and maybe it was a thank you for you know, hey, you had the chance to turn on us and you didn't, i don't know. do you feel safe, ever returning to the united states of no, and do you feel safe here? oh, absolutely. it is extremely secure. right, americans ask me all the time if that covers a choice, be safe and americans to be more safe in the cities here than they are home. i say this a lot of people like back home i had a concealed weapons permit. i had to carry, hang on with me everywhere i went. and since i've been here, people asked me what about your gun rights now? what's the need for it? you don't need a gun. there is an american to say that that's really amazing or expected. but i have a friend from new york and he lives here and he says he got marked on adverse 3 times a year in new york. it's just, it's really crazy. and i still in the metro's here and people like where the people to. yeah. where is there a fee to do the videos all the time? and they always ask the same thing. like me chat is passed
9:53 am
a lot of strange questions on tick tock. recently he was asked if it's true that russia had run out of tomatoes. the american media often writes nonsense stories about russian and people believe them. so we decided to drive to the market and see for our center sports month. oh wow. look at this place. funny uh, on the fish a field. they feed the fisher and 5. yeah. yeah. i think i used to be on your own. yeah. yeah. yeah. i have come to spy on your phone to to get everybody and uh they have to meet us here or not. uh they said russian. okay, just a minute and let's take a look. i think there's truck. so tell me, does that look like that's a main audience? the tomato i like, yeah. tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes, all the way down to me is tomatoes, tomatoes, that all the way down to man estimate is demand is. yeah. so
