The Soviets slated the execution of the men at all three camps to occur simultaneously, though the differing methods used ensured that the killings took place over a slightly different timeframe at each facility. In all cases, the NKVD took the men elsewhere to kill them,

Many decades later, in 1990, the then 89-year-old Vladimir Tokaryev provided a videotaped interview describing the execution of the Poles from Ostashkov, some 6,500 men in all. One man actually pulled the trigger on most of the prisoners, Vasily Blokhin, a square-faced man with a belligerent look who, with this one “project,” became the executioner with the most deaths to his name in history and likely became the world’s deadliest serial killer in one fell swoop. Approximately 30 other men, probably including Tokaryev despite his repeated denials, also had a hand in the killings.
