The gunman who killed six people in a cross-state shooting spree on Feb. 10 before taking his own life had previously been in a relationship with one of the victims, according to police.
Russell Kot, 51, had moved from Illinois to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., in the fall of 2025, and until recently had been in a relationship with Larisa Blyudoy.
The two were also living together until they broke up at the end of 2025.
Then, on Tuesday, Feb. 10, Kot walked into Larisa’s residence and murdered her and her 18-year-old son Ben Azizov, according to the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office.

He then got in his car and drove more than 200 miles to what deputies refer to as the “Fallcrest residence” in Sarasota, arriving just before noon.
That residence is the home of Larisa’s mother, Florita Stolyar.
