The two women, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina, recently appeared on the Colbert Report, and made fun of Putin, even going as far as to say he can arrest them again, as if taunting him.

Now they're supposedly committed robbery?

Something stinks here. What possible reason would they have to be committing robberies in Sochi? Oh Putin...

EDIT: Here's the Colbert Report interview, it's really shoddy quality but it's impossible to find it in Youtube.

    Would think that he would have at least waited another week or so until the Olympics are over and the world's eyes aren't directly on Russia to pull this.

    Why would he? He didn't give a shit before.

    Honestly I don't know why they stayed in country. This is a bit like sticking your hand back into a fire and being surprised you got burned again.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    I really don't think they were surprised to be honest. They are activists trying to make a statement. Martyrs?
