Nearly a decade ago, at least 50 Ukrainian protesters gathered in Kiev's Maidan Square to revolt against government corruption and abuse of power, an act that is now known as the Maidan Uprising. Several police officers ended up shooting and killing many of the opposition protestors in what has since been determined to have been a false flag incident that set the stage for the ousting of Viktor Yanukovych, Ukraine's then-elected president.
An ongoing trial in Kiev has brought all this and more to light, revealing that the shots came from an opposition-controlled building. On Oct. 18, 2023, Ukraine's Sviatoshyn District Court determined that of the five officers implicated in the massacre, one would be acquitted outright while another was sentenced to time served for alleged "abuse of power."
The remaining three officers, who no longer live in Ukraine, have been convicted in absentia on 31 counts of murder and 44 counts of attempted murder. This was possible due to a Supreme Court opinion stipulating that suspects can be held collectively responsible for the actions of a group that has been deemed as criminal.
"The verdict means no one will face jail time, or be in any way punished for their alleged role in the infamous Maidan massacre, which saw over 100 protesters killed, triggered an avalanche of international condemnation and led directly to the downfall of President Viktor Yanukovych, who fled the country mere days later," The Grayzone reports.

None of the five Maidan massacre culprits will serve prison time
The trial in question began back in 2016 but languished for many years before finally reaching a verdict. The trial also became further complicated in 2019 when now-Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky traded all five of the accused officers for prisoners held by Donbas separatists.
Two of the accused officers did return voluntarily to have their day in court, reports indicate.
The families of the victims of the Maidan Uprising are unsurprisingly upset about the verdict. Prosecution lawyers say they plan to appeal, and the mainstream media, at least thus far, is choosing to remain eerily silent on this important case.
Reuters, which did report on the case, skewed its outcome by falsely claiming that the court has finished "sentencing" the officers – fact check: none of the five officers was sentenced to anything as the case's outcome is more symbolic than anything else.
The Kyiv Post also lied about the case by going so far as to claim that the five culprits have been found "guilty" of "Maidan crimes." This, too, skews the actual nature of the case and what it means for the five culprits.
The verdict comes on the heels of a multi-year sabotage effort by Ukrainian authorities. A "former top investigator" who was tasked with probing the massacre says these corrupt Ukrainian authorities "have done their best to make sure there are no real results."
It turns out that, much like the John F. Kennedy assassination, the true culprits in the Maidan massacre may be unknown in the sense that the officers in question who took the blame are actually patsies.
"Littered throughout the one-million-word document are passages demonstrating conclusively that the sniper fire emanated from buildings controlled by the opposition to Yanukovych," The Grayzone reports. "Collectively, these excerpts strongly suggest the Maidan massacre was a false flag carried out by nationalist elements who aimed to ensure the president's ouster."
The court found that the evidence "was quite sufficient to conclude categorically that on the morning of February 20, 2014, persons with weapons, from which the shots were fired, were in the premises of the Hotel Ukraina."
