Timothy Mwaniki: A Life Ended, A Broken System, A Truth Missing

Episode notes

A Kshs 20 dispute at a small hotel turns deadly. After a brief confrontation over unpaid meat, Timothy leaves Bam Bam Hotel only to be found later with a fatal stab wound to the chest. Police arrest Charles, the meat vendor, but no one ever sees the stabbing, forensic evidence is mishandled, and key witnesses refuse to testify. In court, the prosecution relies on weak circumstantial evidence that fails to meet the standard of proof. In December 2023, Charles is acquitted. This episode examines how investigative failures, missing forensic links, and reasonable doubt shaped a murder case—and leaves the unsettling question: if not Charles, then who killed Timothy?
