The initial video went viral shortly thereafter and made headlines all over the world, as reported by Daily Mail. The backlash Kosenko received was also overwhelming to the point where he was forced to delete the content.
And while the Instagrammer has since made claims that the child was merely a dummy and that the video was edited to make sure his son was never in danger, the Russian police see it in a different light.

“The accused threw the child away from himself and upward, allowing him to fall from a height,” read a statement by the Russian authorities. “The criminal intent was not completed due to the child’s fall being softened by the snow cover.”
A warrant has been issued for his arrest by the Basmanny District Court of the city of Moscow, and his 206M rubles ($2,016,760 USD) worth of assets, distributed across 43 bank accounts, have been frozen. He has additionally been ordered to be extradited to Russia to face charges.
Footage shows him throwing a two-month-old baby into deep snow, but Kosenko claims it was nothing but a dummy

Kosenko is also set to be detained for two months the moment he lands on Russian soil, as the father is currently living abroad, seen to be splitting his time between both Los Angeles and Dubai.
His lawyers have made a case against the arrest, echoing what the “influencer” said in his defense — that the video was merely edited and the entire ruse was centered around a dummy doll.
