Gonzalo Lira and son

HenryMakow.com – Dec 7, 2025

Gonzalo Lira foolishly criticized the Ukrainian government while living in the lion’s jaw, in Karkov.

He even prophesied his own disappearance and death on his Twitter feed. 

Despite his foolhardy behavior, the US is still guilty of the torture, extortion and murder of an American journalist by the US-financed Zelensky government.

Here, Lira exposed Zelensky as “the cokehead of Kiev” , a Jewish front for a Jewish Oligarch.

Have any details emerged of the blackmail, torture and murder of Gonzalo Lira in Ukrainian custody?

Background on Gonzalo Lira’s Case

Gonzalo Lira, a 55-year-old Chilean-American journalist and YouTuber known online as “Coach Red Pill,” was a vocal critic of the Ukrainian government during the Russia-Ukraine war. He resided in Kharkiv, Ukraine, with his Ukrainian wife and children, and produced content accusing Western media and governments of bias toward Ukraine while highlighting alleged corruption and neo-Nazi elements in Ukrainian forces. Ukrainian authorities viewed his work as justifying Russian aggression, violating Article 436-2 of Ukraine’s criminal code, which prohibits such content under martial law.

Lira was first arrested by Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) in May 2023. He was released on $8,000 bail and placed under house arrest but was rearrested in July 2023 after attempting to flee to Hungary on a motorcycle to seek political asylum.

He died on January 11, 2024, in a Kharkiv hospital while in custody, officially from complications of pneumonia and sepsis. His father, Gonzalo Lira Sr., and supporters have alleged mistreatment, neglect, and deliberate harm by Ukrainian authorities, with the U.S. Embassy accused of inaction despite repeated pleas.
