      That’s the background for the story: Russia sent their convicts to war in trade of a “get out of jail”-card.

      The guy was in jail for killing his wife. He took the deal and was sent to war. He got shot, got sent home as a free man, and immediately started killing people again.

      It’s not a single case. It’s likely that convicts are taking the deal, not just to get out of jail, but also so they can go back and get revenge over those that put them in jail in the first place.
