A Russian national living in South Florida is expected to plead guilty later this month to conspiring to submit fraudulent voter registrations, as well as four counts of submitting fraudulent voter registrations.
Dmitry Shushlebin, who resides in Miami Beach, has a guilty plea hearing set for Friday, July 25, at 10 a.m. at the federal courthouse in Tampa before Magistrate Judge Amanda Arnold Sansone.
Shushlebin and alleged fellow conspirator Sanjar Jamilov are accused of submitting 132 fraudulent voter registration applications to the Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections in February and March of 2023. The pair submitted applications in names other than their own, in envelopes with return address labels that were all identically formatted and that contained the same typographical errors.
Other signs of fraud included repeated birth dates and nearly sequential Social Security numbers. The two suspects are also accused of submitting change of address forms to the U.S. Postal Service to route mail to three locations allegedly under Shushlebin and Jamilov’s control.
The case has been investigated by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the FBI and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. The investigation began after a referral from the Florida Department of State’s Office of Election Crime and Security.
Both suspects were indicted on the charges in February.
Jamilov entered a guilty plea in his case in April. In the plea agreement, Jamilov states that Shushlebin hired him and others to submit more than 100 fraudulent voter registration applications to the Pinellas Supervisor of Elections.
Jamilov is an Uzbekistan citizen.
The fraudulent voter registration applications in question were denied by the Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections office at the time.
Shushlebin had previously entered a not guilty plea to all counts against him, but is now expected to change his plea to guilty. It’s not clear what penalties Shushlebin faces for his alleged crimes, but Jamilov faces up to five years in prison for his role.

Its best to sentence him to the full punishment for each of the 132 violations.
Let’s see now thats 0 carry the one, 6 carry the one, and 6.
So we will sentence Jamilov to 660 years in prison.
Who knows Vlad might want to do a prisioner exchange for Jamilov later on or quit killing the Ukrainains in exchange for Jamilov.
I’ll check with our current POTUS, Don & our next POTUS, Ron about locking Jamilov up in Alagator Alcatraz to have sport with the leftys by watching the leftys lose their minds even further.
