Russell Bonner Bentley III (Russian: Рассел Бентли, Rassel Bentli; June 20, 1960 – April 8, 2024), also known as Texas (Russian: Техас, pronounced "Tekhas") and the Donbass Cowboy, was an American pro-Donetsk People's Republic/pro-Russia figure in the war in Donbas and Russian invasion of Ukraine. Bentley was initially a pro-Russian combatant in Donbas, later becoming a YouTuber until his channel was deleted in early 2022. In addition to this, he worked for the Russian state-owned Sputnik news agency as a war correspondent. Prior to his activities in Donbas, Bentley was a marijuana activist who had stood for election in the U.S. Senate, and a convicted drug trafficker who had spent five years in prison, as well as several years as a fugitive. Bentley became a naturalized Russian citizen in 2020. In April 2024, he was kidnapped and murdered by Russian soldiers in Russian-occupied Ukrainian city Donetsk.
