Took me some time to understand and translate the tape, these are the recordings of Kelevra's therapist. I don't really care about them, but they are leading me to Kelevra through Moscow. Take a listen if you want:

"Dr. Karkof’s report #1, 1993, January 2nd:
For the first time in my 38 year career as a
psychotherapist, I am disturbed. My new patient worries me, hence the reason
for these personal recordings, to keep the progress I make in check, as well as
my own well-being. My latest patient, he seems so innocent and yet there is
something I can’t put my finger on. It seemed there was nothing left of the
boy.
Oleg may have brutally murdered his entire family, but
Smith’s grove was no place for a seven year-old boy. Dr. Komarov, the main
doctor in the whole grove, I proposed to him to move Oleg into a private room,
give him a play area…for therapeutic reasons. He refused to comply, stating
that this is a Sanitarium, not a summer camp for naughty little boys.
There were only a handful of other boys in the juvenile
ward, but they were teenagers, all were deeply disturbed, some had killed. For
a seven-year-old, even someone like Oleg Ponomarenko, it was an inhuman jungle.
Adrian, an idiot savant with an eating compulsion, whom the others called
‘donut’. Roger was a biblical expert…and a self-mutilator. And then there was
Tonny O’Malley, a violent psychopath.
Being locked away with these hopeless cases was going to
make my job so much harder.
It took a week. He remained as silent as the grave. But at
least he responded. I believed it was a breakthrough. I asked him to draw
whatever he liked.
The drawing was a depiction of him, standing over his
Father’s and Mother’s dead bodies. I was foolish, naïve. I was both disturbed and
delighted…this was the first indication Oleg acknowledged he knew what he’d
done. Perhaps I could prove he wasn’t insane. I asked him if he wanted to talk
about the picture, if there was something he wanted to tell me. But of course,
he didn’t speak.
That is it for this day, after today’s session, I feel like
something’s wrong, that something’s coming my way, I can’t explain it. Nervous
breakdown? Could be."
