As someone who has lived experience of the impacts and atrocities of the war Milošević started and this scumbag was in charge of carrying out, I'm reading this obituary with much joy.

At least he died in prison. We have so many criminals in government right now who need the same. Corruption has become a global crisis.

People die all the time, especially in their 80s.

Oh wow I knew someone with this first name. It was kinda funny because it kinda made people uncomfortable to pronounce it right so people where always trying to figure out a way to say it without rat.
