“I believe that a sentence of served time and 12 months probation is a sufficient sentence, clearly not excessive,” said Judge Eric Melgren.

At the same time, Osipova faces jail for non-compliance with the decision of the family court in the United States, which ordered to bring her children from her ex-American husband to Kansas, where he lives.

Bogdana Osipova, who also has US citizenship, was detained by United States law enforcement agencies in September 2017 on charges of kidnapping her children.
