Rasputin was a man who took care of tsarevich alexei, who was a hemophiliac. Scholars think he hypnotized the young prince to alleviate his suffering when he had a bruise (the internal bleeding wouldn't stop, and the wound would become swollen and quite painful).

While only the tsaritsa respected him, Rasputin was not the direct cause of the deaths of the Romanovs. He was under their patronage, it would not have behooved him to have them killed. rather, they were murdered by the bolsheviks, in the "house of special purpose". They were shot by 11 executioners, and because they had all of their precious jewels sewn into the lining of their clothing, some of the bullets bounced off of them. This is why some rumors arose of the family being protected by god.

Did Rasputin kill the Russian Romanov family?

No, far from it. Rasputin wanted to keep the Romanovs alive because he was benefiting from being a favorite of Empress Alexandra. In December 1916, Rasputin was murdered by certain members of the Russian aristocracy who disliked the fact that he had become a powerful person just because he had Alexandra's favor. In July 1918, the Romanovs were murdered by members of the secret police, the Cheka, and Red Army soldiers on orders from Vladimir Lenin.
