Career
=In 2006, after the murder of one of her colleagues, Anna Politkovskaya, Elena Milasina took it upon herself to take over her colleague's investigation into the corruption of Russia's government. In April of that year, Elena uncovered a huge controversy within the Russian Government. She discovered evidence that the Russian republic of Chechnya was detaining, torturing, and even killing homosexual men in an anti-homosexual purge in Chechnya, which later was dismissed by the Russian Government.

Context
After the Chechnya scandal, in the early morning on April 5, 2012, Elena was robbed and attacked in her own home in the suburb outside of Moscow by two unknown perpetrators. She was diagnosed with a concussion, extensive bruising, and a broken tooth. The authorities believed that this attack was motivated by hate. She and many other journalists were under attack. Some were attacked, robbed, and sometimes killed because of their coverage of sensitive topics like human right violations and the murder of her Novaya Gazeta colleague.

Impact
After the accusations of the Russian government detaining, torturing, and killing homosexual men, the Russian government denied those accusations and dismissed all rumors. But, that didn't stop action from happening in the UN. The united nations later that year called for Moscow to end all persecution happening in Russia. Elena was later relocated due to safety purposes.
