The State had last month called for the death sentence for Muthoni who orchestrated the murder of her husband who was the Kiiru School Principal. The two observed that the two offenders showed no remorse or regret throughout the trial that has lasted five years. Mwaniki told the court that the offenders planned the murder for months and executed it with precision and cruelty. Muthoni had been accused of orchestrating her husband's murder between November 6 and November 11, 2016. The prosecution had stated that Muthoni killed Mwangi because she suspected he was unfaithful, accusations which she vehemently denied.
