Simon Ciuri | Nation Media GroupLawrence Warunge, the main suspect in the murder of his four family members and a farm hand, has been charged with five counts of murder at the Kiambu law court. In January, the court ruled that Warunge was unfit to stand trial after a psychiatric report was presented at the Kiambu Law Court. When he was arrested, Warunge told homicide detectives that he was inspired by the tv series ‘Killing Eve’ to murder his father, mother, 12-year-old brother, cousin and a farm hand at their Kiambu family home. His girlfriend Sarah Muthoni, who was also a suspect, was released in January under Section 87 (a), and turned into a state witness in the case.
