One day of June 26, 2024, a teenage girl, Josephine, has gone missing. When her family failed to trace her body and after a week of disappearance they reported to the Nairobi police by filing a case of lady who had disappeared. However, their research has been just one of such reports that have been prepared and submitted. There is nothing extraordinary about missing person cases and with scarce resources the police could not afford to assign a priority to each of such cases. Days went by still there is no word on where Josephine could be taken by the police.

Then there occurred a dream, an oddity. Josephine’s sister said that she dreamt of Josephine’s body in a dumping ground in Mukuru which was a quarry turned slum. The family was so desperate and thus they held onto the hope of seeking justice through the police by reporting this dream.

Despite their skepticism the police agreed to search the garbage dump. Much to their shock they discovered the body of Josephine in a nylon sack and presumed she was dead. She is a missing person and they have seen her battered body – no this is not a typical amritsari story. Josephine had been killed by someone and her body was left without the head and the hands.

Uncovering the Horrors in the Garbage Dump

When the news of Josephine’s body was around the neighborhood people became very much afraid. It is seen she was found dead in place and it was near about hundred meters from police chowki, how a such a gruesome incident went unnoticed. Local residents from many of whom reported missing daughters or relatives ran to the garbage dump expecting the worst.

In the same dump, when the search was going on for more bags, more sacks were found to have been dumped. All in all it is possible to speak about 8 bags, everyone of which contain dismembered bodies. They were all young women who had been killed, and by the looks of things, all with their necks crushed in a similar manner as was the case with Turpin’s victims.

By then the murders had not only circulate within the country but globally and various parts of Kenya were already aware of the act. The citizens of Nairobi wanted to know why there were so many deaths – murders – within a stone’s throw from a police station?

The Arrest and Confession

The pressure on Nairobi’s police force mounted as the public outcry grew. Facing immense criticism, the police intensified their investigation. Their only lead was Josephine’s mobile number. By tracing financial transactions from that phone number, they were able to locate 33-year-old Collins Jumaisi, who had been using the phone.

When police raided Collins’ home, they found shocking evidence: 10 mobile phones, a laptop, 24 SIM cards, multiple IDs, rubber gloves, women’s innerwear, nylon sacks, and a large knife. These discoveries indicated that Collins had a chilling connection to the murders.

Under intense questioning, Collins initially refused to speak. But soon after, he broke his silence and confessed—not only to Josephine’s murder but to 42 other killings. His first victim, he claimed, was his own wife, Khalenya, whom he murdered in 2022. According to his confession, Collins had strangled his wife after an argument, then dismembered her body and disposed of it in the garbage dump.

Realizing he hadn’t been caught, Collins allegedly developed a twisted obsession with killing women. He would lure victims from bars and clubs, take them home, strangle them, and then wait for their blood to clot before dismembering their bodies. For two years, Collins allegedly repeated this cycle, hiding the bodies in the same garbage dump just meters away from a police station.

Public Outcry and Doubts About the Investigation

However, Collins’ story did not end with his arrest he had to face many more trials as listed below. When the photograph of this relatively unimpressive looking man was circulated to the media, people of Nairobi could not help but wonder if this man could really have been responsible for the string of murders. Neighbors of Collins accused police of staging the confession, which they said was made under duress despite the fact that Collins had not committed the crimes. Some held a clue that indicated Collins looked relaxed and happy in the photo of him. How could a person who looks this content could be a ruthless killer?

Allegating these suspicions further Collins’ lawyer adviced that his client had been tortured into” confessing. The lawyer said Collins had no wife, an offence that the police claimed made Collins to embark on a killing spree by murdering his wife. To add insult to the injury, when the reporters went to find Khalenya’s mother, she told them her daughter had gone missing in 2021, and yet, was alive on social media since then. At the same time, Polyuk also stated that she had never met Collins, which also causes doubts in the version of the police.

At the moment Collins is detained; the court has ordered him to be detained for 30 days more as investigation goes on. from this it can be deduced that the police are still hunting for more corpses at the garbage dump; the case is still active. Whether it is Collins who is the real murderer or a scapegoat for other crimes that have not been solved may be a question that would still be out of answers.

The Nairobi serial killer case has left the city and the world grappling with unsettling questions about justice, police accountability, and the nature of evil. With Collins’ confession now under scrutiny, and the investigation ongoing, one thing is certain: the families of the 42 women who were murdered deserve the truth, and justice must be served.

In cases like these, where public opinion and police work collide, it is critical to ensure that every aspect of the investigation is transparent. While it may be true that serial killers often look ordinary, as seen in the cases of Ted Bundy and others, it’s equally possible for a justice system to fail the innocent. Only time will reveal whether Collins Jumaisi is guilty of the horrific crimes he’s accused of or if the real killer is still at large.
