#1 This headline didn't parse well. Turns out, the article is an interview with Viktor Bout's wife. I guess the Spiegel correspondent met her at Bout's prison and didn't have any better ideas for an article.

#2 Viktor Anatolyevich Bout had an interesting life

Clinton Adm. was after him in 1999- 2001 ( State Department official Witney Schneidman
and National Security Council (NSC) adviser Lee Wolosky )

Left more or less alone till 2007 (Bush adm.) and then arrested in March 2008.
