But here’s the most surprising part of the case: Korovin made people think Vedler was still alive for an entire year after he killed her (via the New York Post). Throughout 2021, Korovin continued to generate posts on Vedler’s social media pages so that her family, friends, and followers wouldn’t suspect anything, according to The U.S. Sun.

But the posts didn’t fool everybody. Kharkiv-based Ukrainian blogger Evgeniy Foster was friends with Vedler, and he became suspicious after seeing some of Korovin’s devised social media posts. Foster contacted people who knew Vedler, and one friend ended up filing a missing person report in Moscow, Russia. Other friends grew worried that Vedler was making social media posts, but she wasn’t calling them back (via The Daily Beast). Foster was especially distraught, because he suspected that Vedler might have been taken into custody by Russian police or otherwise harmed for being critical of Putin. He reportedly told his Instagram and blog followers about these suspicions in several different posts.
Per The U.S. Sun, the young model’s body was eventually discovered in the dark gray suitcase covered in duct tape in March 2022. And as the New York Post reports, Vedler’s death a year after her controversial posts isn’t part of a conspiracy or cover-up, but is instead a tragic instance of domestic homicide.
