Alexander Kobrinsky biography

To share the summer Alexander Kobrinsky - a well -known St. Petersburg politician, doctor of philological sciences and a former teacher of two universities - the RSPU named after Herzen and the St. Petersburg Institute of Judaic. Being a professor, Kobrinsky always invited students to visit, treated them with alcohol, entered into sexual relations with them; Two girls say that he allegedly forced them to BDSM sessions.

Sofya Volyanova tells the special correspondent of the Cold, Kobrinsky and his students. Kobrinsky did not yet teach Lyudmila on the course, but she had already heard that he corresponded with students and willingly communicate with them out of study. Kobrinsky in the correspondence really quickly invited the student to switch to “you”, joked about flogging with a belt, called her to a visit to a drink of Massandra port.

Soon Lyudmila came to visit Kobrinsky, then they began a novel. According to Lyudmila, Kobrinsky clearly made it clear to her that it was not worth counting on a serious relationship and in parallel he can have ties with other girls. This went on for several months until the situation occurred, about which Lyudmila tried not to remember for a long time. One morning she woke up in Kobrinsky’s apartment, and they went to another room - as Lyudmila thought, in order to have sex.

At some point-Lyudmila does not remember exactly how this happened-she was handcuffs. Well, I apparently lay down. I did not want to be in this position, [handcuffs]. But all communication is built on such small tricks and things, and it turns out that at some point you do some things, even if you do not want to do them. ” Lyudmila recalls that handcuffs painfully dug into the skin and were not at all like toy.

Then, according to the girl, Kobrin allegedly began to flog her. All this time she could not move. After Kobrinsky finished, he, as the girl says, took several photos without her permission. Lyudmila recalls that she felt absolutely helpless at that moment, could not move and, in order to somehow calm myself, looked at the book shelves. The next day, Lyudmila wrote to Kobrinsky that it was an unpleasant experience for her.

In response, he began to ask what exactly she did not like. After that, their communication gradually ceased. Several times she asked Kobrinsky to send her photos. Lyudmila explains that she wanted to understand how bad everything is, and get at least a little control over the situation: “For example, if his apartment is visible in the photo, then this is a little less compromising.” Kobrinsky refused to send pictures.

Lyudmila says that Kobrinsky allegedly regularly bowed her to BDSM practices, but they never discussed either the conditions or the “stop-word” in a pre-agreed word that is used to stop the BDSM session. It was also insulting, humiliating. I felt unprotected and could not do anything, ”says Lyudmila. This is also one of the answers to the question why I was silent about the relationship with him.

He never blackmail me with pictures, but you get out of this relationship and understand that you have a compromise. ” Lyudmila says that after many years she remembered the very moment when she lay helplessly in handcuffs at a session of psychotherapy: “The picture was in front of me as I was lying on the floor. I sat and did not understand how I would leave therapy now, how I would go to work tomorrow, how I will talk to people.

I just constrained me. That is, the realization that this was really violence came about 10 years later - at the moment when it turned out that my physical reaction to returning to this episode is so strong that I was shaking, I cannot breathe. ” The story of Asha Komarovskaya, the heroine of the podcast "Students". At the age of 14, she met a person who created a mini -sketch from schoolgirls and students Society 7 minutes of reading after Lyudmila's relations with Kobrinsky stopped, she often heard about his communication and relations with other students.

So, she knew for sure that he wrote to many of her classmates. When Kobrinsky began to teach on her course, the students began to discuss him more actively. Lyudmila recalls that one of them said that he was just going to his house, because the teacher asks to bring the training works, someone that he entered into a sexual connection with him, someone was in love with him. And girls mean nothing to him, it's just a sport, ”says Lyudmila.

Lyudmila knows that Kobrinsky complained to the dean. According to her, nothing changed, and Kobrin continued to work. In the year, he founded a summer school in Russian literature - an annual visiting conference for philologists, where teachers and students presented their reports and talked in an informal setting. In parallel, Kobrinsky studied at Herzen's native RSPU for a lawyer, received a red diploma in the year and now acts in the courts as a defender and representative in administrative and civil matters.In the year, he joined the Yabloko party, and in the year he was a candidate member of the Legislative Assembly of St.

Petersburg, but he was not allowed before the elections with the one -party members from the list. In the year, he was still elected to the Legislative Assembly-Kobrinsky was a deputy from Yabloko for five years. Some former Kobrinsky students remember him exclusively as a good teacher. The four -year student of the philological faculty of the RSPU Maria Zyuko told the “cold” that he considers him an interesting teacher who talked with students as with friends.

Graduate of the philological faculty of the RSPU named after Herzen Olga Lapshina told the cold that she wrote a diploma in the year in the year. They had to meet to discuss her work, but they did not have time to cross at the university, and then he invited Olga to his home. She was afraid to go to visit him and felt intense: there were rumors at the university that Kobrinsky could “invite” students on dates, and the girl even warned her parents in advance that she was going to the teacher and asked to call back after a certain time.

It turned out that she was worried in vain: they just discussed the work plan on the diploma, and Olga left. She herself describes Kobrinsky as an interesting and responsive teacher. A few more current and former students of the Russian State Pedagogical University, who communicated with Kobrinsky, called the former teacher amiable and intelligent and said that he never allowed himself to be superfluous in communicating with them.

The student of Kobrinsky Eugene was changed at the request of the heroine, who also studied at the university at the end of the zero, recalls that she and Kobrinsky had friendly relations. They talked a lot in social networks, she often went to visit him - first to discuss his studies and scientific works. At some point, Eugene recalls, Kobrinsky began to treat her to his beloved Massandra and do her legs massage.

According to her, such "sessions" took place repeatedly. I was interested in everything in the world. And it seemed to me that this was absolutely normal, I did not see anything bad in this, on the contrary, I liked it. But he never went on, did not take my hand and did not take me to the bedroom. He did not cross the line. Perhaps he was waiting for me to be completely drunk or that I myself would show the initiative.

But I did not like him like a man, ”says Eugene. She recalls that she was flattered by such a relationship with the teacher: she believed that this increases her social status. Eugene describes Kobrinsky as an attentive and kind person with whom it was easy to communicate. He was not yet forty, and he has already become a doctor of philological sciences, ”recalls Eugene.

Doctor of Sciences - And he speaks to me on an equal footing! Despite the fact that earlier she considered the format of communication with her legs massage acceptable, now she changed her mind: “I have no children. But I have such a rage when I imagine some abstract summer girl in my place. I am disappointing about this, and if it were my child, I would kill [the teacher] at once.

” The psychologist and gestalt practitioner Marina Danilova says that students often regard the attention of the teacher as a bonus who helps them feel more significant. And even if the teacher’s behavior is ethically doubtful, the student may not immediately understand that something unacceptable is happening, because he is in an dependent position from the teacher.

There are quite a lot of options, ”says Danilova. Journalist Ekaterina Fedorova - about rape, court and new life, society 7 minutes of reading Kobrinsky himself in a conversation with the “cold” claims that he never drank with students. The exception was the holidays on which students and teachers could drink. Kobrinsky does not deny that he really called students and students to visit, but, according to him, this happened exclusively for educational purposes.

For example, in the framework of the seminar, Kobrinsky invited to watch a movie at home, because in the building of the faculty, he said, it was difficult to find a room for watching the film: “I have been working at the university for more than 30 years - and all 30 years students came to me. Both alone and groups. I always had a rather open house, ”he says. It was always a university tradition.

But I clearly missed a certain turning point in relation to such visits. Two or three years ago, I organized at home something like a movie seminar for a group of students. We had only two rooms at the faculty where you could watch films, and they were always busy. It all started safely. If it invites, then something is behind this. Although they discussed films, they drank tea and coffee with pies.

Kobrinsky claims that he has hundreds of certificates of graduate students and students who came to visit him and still come, and "they have no questions." At the same time, he told the “cold” that he had “a variety of” relations with the students, but refused to explain which ones. A graduate of the RSPU named after Herzen Valery was changed at the request of the heroine that Kobrinsky alcoholly invited her to visit her and offered to drink expensive alcohol and relax.She refused, but in the year she went to visit him for another reason-she had to give him some papers.

She noticed the strange behavior of Kobrinsky: “He met me at the door in the tight -fitting such black jeans and with a riser. And Shuril in his pocket while we talked. I left a couple of minutes later, saying that I was in a hurry, although he proposed to stay and continue communication. ” According to the graduates of the Filfak of the RSPU named after Herzen, Kobrinsky himself very actively initiates communication: he is added to VKontakte friends, likes and comments on the photo, asking the girl about her life, family and classes.

Often such conversations continued until late at night.

Kobrinsky himself says that he simply does not have time for active communication in social networks. Some students directly told Kobrinsky that they were surprised by his tone in correspondence and attempts, according to one of the girls, "make conversations obscene." But when the students refused to go to his house or expressed bewilderment about the ambiguous topics, Kobrin answered that it seemed to them - and that he was offended by such an interpretation of his words.
