Q: Washington (CNN) Nine high-profile Russians, including several high-profile diplomats, have died over the nine months since the US presidential election on November 8. Among the recent deaths were six Russian diplomats. Some of the deaths appeared natural and governments have ruled out foul play. In some cases, though, questions remain. That's either because the facts have changed over time, details are hard to come by, or the deaths are still under investigation. Self-proclaimed online sleuths and conspiracy theorists have filled the information void with speculation that the deaths were somehow related to Russia's interference in the 2016 presidential election. No evidence has surfaced to make such a connection.Nine Russians -- all in key positions -- have wound up dead in recent monthsAt least one appears to be an assassination
