>The other question of course is - can this be considered Russian sponsored if they choose not to ever prosecute?
Here Russian police is lazy - if no one files a complaint, they won't do anything. Since he avoids targetting Russian organizations, law enforcement is probably completely unaware of him. Something can happen if American law enforcement contacts Russian law enforcement directly but it looks there's little cooperation there because of the mutual political animosity between USA & Russia (US/Russian embassies getting closed, ties being cut etc) I wonder what will happen if Interpol gets involved
