Investigations into the mysterious death of Jennifer Michelle, an 8-year-old Grade 2 pupil who died under mysterious circumstances at a time when she was supposed to be in school, entered the second day on Tuesday with investigators able to obtain CCTV footage at Mama Lucy Hospital where she was found dead.

Some of the occupants pretended to be seeking to fill formal admission forms before vanishing 14 minutes later.

A doctor’s report seen by Citizen TV indicated the minor was already dead. We have since established that the vehicle that was used to drop the minor is registered under a name Ezekiel Gathuku Macharia.

For the better part of the day Tuesday — the family of the deceased 8-year-old Jennifer Michelle camped at the Mama Lucy Hospital patiently waiting for the autopsy report to ascertain what led to her death on the 19th of this month.

But after hours of waiting and a briefing by a team of pathologists led by Johansen Oduor, the report they received was disappointing. The Government Pathologist saying the findings were inconclusive.

“They could not conclude their findings today and so they have collected some more samples and they say they have taken them to the government laboratory for further analysis,” said Ayub Owino, the father to the deceased girl.
