Kenyan Man Confesses to Killing 42 Women Over the Past Two Years

According to CNN on Monday (July 15), citing Kenyan police, the man was arrested after several bodies were discovered in a quarry in Nairobi, the capital of the country.

The man's name is Collins Jumaisi, and he is 33 years old. In his initial statements, he admitted to his crime.

Mohamed Amin, Kenya's Director of Criminal Investigations, told reporters that Jumaisi was arrested outside a club where he had gone to watch the Euro 2024 final match.

He added, "The suspect confessed during interrogation to luring, killing, and disposing of 42 women's bodies at a dumping site. These murders occurred between 2022 and July 11, 2024."

Amin stated that according to Jumaisi's confessions, his first victim was his wife, whom he strangled and killed before dismembering her body and dumping it at the site.

Kenyan authorities say that several mobile phones, identification cards, sharp objects, plastic gloves, and dozens of bags were found at his house.

This comes after mass graves were discovered in a forest in the Kilifi region of Kenya last year.
