Dear Jennifer,

Faith and I went to pay our last respects to Edith at Star Mortuary here in town. She will be interred at her family's place in Nyakach at the weekend. I walked beside Faith to help keep her emotions steady, but she kept breaking down most of the time and the people we travelled with to the morgue would not even help me pacify her. In fact, I overheard one woman in the group saying to another, "This is bad. For her to have killed her fellow workmate is unforgivable before God." I knew she was referring to Faith, and I wondered where such bitter sentiments stemmed from. I wanted to turn to the woman and ask what else she knew about the murder, but decided to hold myself down. It was not my onus to ignite a probe.
