(Updated) Denis Ten Murdered: was stabbed in the thigh

There may be lots of reasons. Envy, any perceived lack of respect (I am saying perceived because sometimes people who get offended are offended because they wanted to be offended rather than because someone gave them actual reason), it can be something as small as Denis not giving someone right of way while driving, or someone decided that Denis looked at them ‘the wrong way’... None of those reasons you or me may consider significant, but then again neither you nor me go around murdering people. Some people are just scum and would murder an old person for a bag with five pounds. Denis very likely had much more than that...

I can see a good lawyer making that argument if facts presented itself to make it look like Ten was after them and was so much stronger than them that they panicked and used a knife to stop him from pummeling them. Of course, I think most people would roll their eyes at that argument (unless the lawyer is super persuasive) because they robbed Denis and they outnumbered him and they still didn't need to use deadly force.

Wasn't Denis something like 120 pounds???? Slight build, unarmed, outnumbered. That defense atty has his work cut out for him.

There was an earlier discussion in this topic why some one may want another person dead. Some nutty person may not like "how one looks at his wife"...

Oxana Ten's theory, which she voiced openly, is "i believe there are people out there who were jealous of Denis' success". She arranged for a lot of detective work, kept watch on murderer's families, researched, searched, contacted people, etc.

She found out that murderer's family suddenly came into noticeable amount of money, bought a new car, and other costly (by local standards) objects . The new car was seen in the drive way. The neighbors informed that the family suddenly has money. Then the info about the murderer receiving $ 5000 USD and support while in jail from a man who has connections to the owner of the restaurant. Then all the issues with destroyed sim-cards and telephone records erased, etc. There are more details about "the pregnant girlfriend's role", the 2 police officers who were sitting in the car half a block from Denis' automobile during mirror theft, and supposedly were able to see the whole incident from their angle, yet did nothing..etc.

Mrs. Ten thinks there is more to the situation, given the "parallel activities" involving money and support to murderers, etc.
 
If any one wants to see news feeds with trial and other videos, here are some.

This one (into the middle) has a computer 3D simulation of the incident/fight, based on testimony.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8pZHL__PYU

In this video @ 2:10, Mother names Denis' friend (Ruslan Kharyilaev) as the one (of several) who knew in advance the location of their lunch. The two boys were friends since school, but not in contact for the next 10 years. Recently they renewed contact, and lunch was one of their get togethers. On the video (at 2:10) the friend speaks, and there is a short film of him and Denis at the restaurant. He was questioned, and said he knows nothing of the situation, and was himself informed of the issue.

(personally, if i was involved in a set up like this, i would not take a video of the "victim" and post it on line... :lol:)
 
Sure it's nice to see the Kazakh flag flying. It would surely make Denis happy. But it's truly Tursy's own effort. She needs to improve in some areas though. I think she was overscored on PCS, but the judges do love the rotations. And lucky for Tursy to go back to Eteri and find her mojo. The scrambling around in the fp among the ladies was also helpful for Tursy's overall placement. She was third in sp, 4th in fp but 2nd overall because of poor showings by Sakamoto, et al.

Anyway, it's good to see the D-10 exhibit at Worlds, and all the tributes. Denis is unforgettable and irreplaceable.
 
Have you heard Dimash Kudaibergen from Kazakhstan?

His voice is really amazing!!!

to say the truth... it seems to me he still thinks about playing with his voice, not about creating a harmonious (balanced) song, maybe he still learns to cope with such a voice (sorry, that I say such a thing)
I really hope he will make it sound like a song! (not like some pieces of songs)

Yes, because Denis Ten used his vocal version of "SOS d'un terrien en detresse" as his final :( free skate: http://www.isuresults.com/bios/isufs00008858.htm

From Dimash's IG last July 19-21, 2018:

I actually caught Dimash's appearance on CBS' The Worlds Best reality talent competition show a few months ago and thought of Denis. Dimash made it to the Champions Rounds (top 12) but withdrew from the Solo Music category.

Denis Ten exhibition attracted 35,000 visitors in Japan (March 30, 2019): https://astanatimes.com/2019/03/denis-ten-exhibition-attracted-35000-visitors-in-japan/
Excerpts:
The exhibition presented Ten’s own photos and those taken during his performances, and his friends prepared a video installation shown on several screens. A book was also available for guests to express words of support to his family and friends. The International Skating Union and the Kazakh Embassy in Japan supported the foundation in preparing the exhibit.
“The initiative came from the Japanese fan community, who, after exhibitions in Almaty and Astana, asked the Denis Ten Foundation to come to Japan. They greeted us very warmly. Many visitors came [including those who] came specifically [to the exhibition] from other cities of Japan. People cried, smiled and approached us and Oksana Alekseevna (Ten’s mother). They thanked us for holding this photo exhibition,” said Denis Ten Foundation Executive Director and the skater’s friend Gauhar Omar, reported informburo.kz.

Ten was not only an athlete, but a person with a rich personality who expressed kindness to others, a trait which the foundation wanted to highlight, said Omar.
“Initially, our concept was to show the multifaceted personality of Denis, not only as an athlete. Everyone knows him as a champion, but also, he is a friend. For example, videos from the personal archive show him as a human, a friend and a creative person. Here, people can see photos of Denis and photographs made by him. The warmth that Denis gave people is now returning. The fact that he is remembered is heart-warming. It seems to me that this is what drives the foundation and all of us – that people remember and want all his projects to continue,” she said to 24.kz.

Oh, sorry! I don't know how can it be. Of course, I had seen Denis skating to "SOS d'un terrien en detresse" (and remembered that), but somehow I didn't remember the voice. Yesterday it seemed to me I heard this voice for the first time. Sorry.

The following is not directly linked to Denis Ten, but it may affect indirectly his mother's (Oxana Ten) attempt to further the investigation on her claim that Denis' murder was a conspiracy.

Another Kazakhstanian Olympic Champion's (Dmitry Balandin) automobile was burgled (for mirrors) not far from where Ten's car was. The thief was caught, and now the police is also tracing high-activity for car buglers in the area.

Happy 26 birthday Denis Ten 🌺
I will skate to Caruso this season, the same music that you skated to in the 2015 season.
You inspired me with that program and I hope to inspire others with it also.
You are not forgotten.
Thank you🖤

People say, that there will be a show in Ten's memory on July 20.
(in the comments to Yagudin's post about the monument)
Actually, they ask whether Yagudin is going to skate there. He says he wasn't invited. He says he was invited to Ten's show in November, but "nothing definite was said" to him.

I'd really love to know whether he's going to continue or not because he should be a headliner of "The Nutcracker" in Prague 7 Dec 2019 (at 2 pm and 6 pm)!

Sorry, I really want to tell about a great song...
(I think the words are great even in a bad translation)


For that guy

I'll get up before the dawn today
/.../
Something odd is going on in my memory:
I remember everything what happened to someone else.
/.../
I didn't even know that guy who promised:
"I'll be back, mama."

The steppe grass smells of bitterness,
The winds are so young...
We wake up hearing the thunder at midnight:
Maybe it's a storm, maybe it's an echo of the recent war.

The spring is going to be long,
The tilled soil is waiting for selected grain,
And I live on this kind Earth -
For myself and for that guy.

I stoop my shoulders because of such a burden,
But I can't live another way,
If his voice is still calling for me,
If his song is still sounding in my ears.


"For yourself and for that guy" is not just a popular quote... I guess such songs are more important than our anthem. This song is not only great poetry, it is like a key to possible happiness.

If you'd like to hear it, I think Kobzon sings it even better than Magomaev. I like, that Kobzon doesn't hurry:
