☆ Did Police in Kenya Catch a Serial Killer or Coerce a Confession?

A 26-year-old hair braider named Josephine Owino disappeared one morning last month in the sprawling shantytown of Mukuru Kwa Njenga in Kenya’s capital, Nairobi, after going out suddenly to see someone who had just phoned. Ms. Owino’s younger sister, Peris Keya, was desperate to find her, and went to three police stations pleading for help. But nothing happened until Ms. Keya said she had a startling dream one night: Her sister appeared, led her up a hill and begged her to search in a pool of water. The dump was searched only because Ms. Keya, 24, beseeched some local men to help, paying them for the grisly task. On Monday, the Kenyan police announced that they had arrested a suspected serial killer, who they said had confessed to killing 42 women, including his own wife, in the past two years, and throwing them into the dump.

CNN —A suspected serial killer has confessed to murdering 42 women over the past two years, police in Kenya have said, in a shocking case that has sparked calls for increased measures to combat gender-based violence in the country. Authorities said Collins Jumaisi Khalusha, 33, “lured, killed, and disposed of 42 female bodies,” of which only nine have been recovered. Gerald Anderson/Anadolu/Getty Images“We are dealing with a serial killer, a psychopathic serial killer who has no respect for life,” Amin said Monday. A group of female leaders called for enhanced protections for Kenyan women on Monday after increasing cases of femicide. “It is so sad that someone who killed 42 people was still roaming out there.
