Crimes
Irtyshov began his crimes in December 1993. While he was walking through the territory of the Sosnovsky Park, he noticed two brothers, 11 and 12 years old respectively. Threatening them with a knife, the criminal took the children to a quiet, secluded place where he raped them, forcing them to drink something from a jar beforehand. As the boys later said, "the liquid had a strange taste and an unpleasant smell." Both victims received serious bodily injuries.[5]
The next attack occurred in the Kolpinsky District of St. Petersburg. While violently abusing a boy, Irtyshov squeezed his throat too much, causing him to die from suffocation. Igor himself later said that he didn't want to kill him, but simply did not calculate the strength, because he was drunk. After this, an active search was conducted to catch the serial rapist. Many criminals who were brought to criminal responsibility for such offenses were tried.
The next child Irtyshov raped was in May 1994. He dragged a 10-year-old boy into the attic of a house along the Riga Avenue and brutally raped him. After the act of violence, Irtyshov manually tore apart the boy's perineum, leaving him permanently disabled. It is noteworthy that all the attacks were committed during daytime, approximately between 12 and 18 hours, but the perpetrator managed to escape unnoticed. A month later he raped two more boys, 11 and 12 years old, on the banks of the Neva River.
A 15-year-old teenager almost became Irtyshov's seventh victim when he attacked the boy in an elevator. However, the boy managed to fight back and escaped. On the same day, Irtyshov, angry at his previous failure, committed his eighth and final crime. After brutally raping a 9-year-old boy, he proceeded to tear out 30 feet of the victim's intestines. Miraculously, the boy survived and was able to give a detailed description of the attacker. After that, he was treated in a hospital in the United States, with calls for financial help on television for the necessary operation, but despite the fact that the necessary amount of intestines were collected for the organ transplantation, the boy ultimately died. This crime, like the many others of Irtyshov, were committed inside the stairwells of the apartment houses where victims lived.[6]
Arrest and trial
On the streets and in the newspapers, the rapist's facial composite and his verbal description were distributed. Irtyshov was frightened: the composite was very similar to him, which forced him to fly to Murmansk. A month later, having decided that everything had quieted down, Igor returned to St. Petersburg, where on November 28, 1994, he was detained by law enforcement agencies, which by that time had amassed a vast amount of evidence against him.
Irtyshov was "given up" by one of his lovers. After the last rape, Irtyshov brought the boy's briefcase home and boasted about it to his roommate. He suspected something was amiss and turned to the police. Soon Irtyshov was captured, and later many victims identified him.[7]
For a long time, Irtyshov did not give any confessions.[8] However, later he began to talk about the crimes and participated in investigative experiments. At the interrogations he behaved inadequately, and pretended to be mentally defective.[9]
Psychiatric examinations of the killer took a long time. As a result, the experts identified a number of mental abnormalities, but in general, Irtyshov was declared sane. The case was then referred to the city court of St. Petersburg. Many forensic experts were inclined to believe that soon Irtyshov would begin to purposefully kill his victims, and in addition to rapes, there would be a chain of corpses.
Irtyshov noted that he liked the clinic where he was examined, and said that he would like to be recognized as insane and prescribed

As of 2000, he was detained in the special regime colony "Mordovian Zone" in the Sosnovka settlement in Mordovia.[11] In February 2021 he died of heart failure[12]
