Update-No physical injuries found in University don's deceased wife.

[system]

The pathologist said she died of pulmonary edema or fluid in the lungs, although there were no physical injuries. What probably happened…he choked her in the neck and she was gasping heavily for air. In the process one can create large negative intrapulmonary capillary pressures against a closed glottis (airway) that can trigger fluid to leave the vascular system into the interstitium…my 2 cents.
Mhsrip.

From what I know mtu akichokiwa shingo lazma kukuwe na physical signs hata ka ni kidogo aje and the pathologist said there was no sign of physical injury

True, true could be, she had been earlier seen by dr stellah bosire wa avenue healthcare group na anasema
, she wasn’t symptomatic at all prior to this event given the postmortem findings… we all are stuck at pulmonary edema findings…

Obstetrics 101, The four ts of post partum haemorrage,

Tone: uterine atony, distended bladder.
Trauma: lacerations of the uterus, cervix, or vagina.
Tissue: retained placenta or clots.
Thrombin: pre-existing or acquired coagulopathy.

The lady was 6 weeks postpartum, that can partly explain the blood clot. Silent thrombo embolism, clots to the lungs and to the heart.

   Thrombo embolism and disseminated intervascular coagulopathy ( hii ni activation ya clotting factors inside your blood stream)are silent killers in post cs cases and diffucult to detect. My take, the don is innocent but feminazi wanalia sana.

Sure blood clot is possible, but in the left atrium? Most of those complications you listed like DIC, retained placenta, uterine atony don’t occur 6 weeks later. The blood clot seen by the pathologist is inconsequential to the cause of death unless he/she visualized a clot directly in the pulmonary artery. Also how ‘convenient’ that she suddenly dies immediately after a quarrel with the husband? The husband is guilty as sin. We know people like him, black widowers, who excel in killing their wives (hint hint, not surprised!)

Haha the intro was class to the villagers, ( they are appreciating the knowledge imparted thus far). Anyways, my thinking point was apart from the pulmonary edema, asymptomatic or silent pulmonary embolism seen in patients with deep vein thrombosis.

The report says "The autopsy on the body of Rebecca Gombe Mwachongo showed she had pulmonary oedema.

Pathologists said her lungs had fluid and there were no physical injuries on her body.
Also, she had a blood clot in the left atrium and traces of blood in the carotid artery.
"Traces of blood in the carotid artery " inaweza sumbua the don , but the lady had 0 physical injuries, not even a bruise!

It will be a toll order for the authorities to prove beyond reasonable doubt, the don did indeed murder his wife, in the four elements of a crime, mens rea ( intent or guilty mind), actus reus( conduct), concurrence and causation. Little can be proven here, yes his conduct is questionable but there is no causation.He was not to benefit in anyway from this crime and so no evidence of intent too.

Did you see how happy he appeared whilst narrating what happened? Huyu ni serial killer. No even pretending to be shocked or sad. Alafu arranging for post mortem and even burial in few hrs without informing her family,who does that? We ngojea utasikia ameua mwingine tena. He looks like a psycho.

@pumbu

Hehe, from the Dons explantion. 'Dr Ogola said during the play, his wife suddenly exclaimed and fell back on the edge of the bed.
“I thought this was a joke because we had been playing" … Hii ni classical definition of a heart attack.

Medicaly, a blood clot in the heart causes a heart attack. The heart is a less common location for a blood clot, but it can still happen. Thats what the pathologist’s have found in the body.

 The clot most probably formed elsewhere, as per the  factors in my earlier post, but after the playing and increased physicsl activity , it dislodged and got stuck in the atruim causing the heart attack.Pathological evidence this far says so. Lastly we ll all wait for the toxicology report, she may have been intoxicated or something....ama walikuwa wanakunywa jug daniels..

I have a simple question, how does a lady who just had a CS have the strength to play leave alone move in quickly?

Not in a dark complexion person, which the victim was. Black people hide bruises very well. She could have been pillow suffocated too. Further separate evaluations by criminal pathologists should be done to unravel the cause of death. I find it so fishy that the husband is rushing to bury her, perhaps to conceal evidence? If he was a genuine spouse heartbroken by the death of his wife, shouldn’t he want to know what killed her?!

Her parents have retained their own pathologist, so the husband should wait as long as it takes, to ensure no stones are left unturned. What’s the rush for anyway? Her body isn’t even cold yet he’s too willing to bury her, wow. Does that sound like someone who loved his wife? Is that how a young, grieving husband acts? His body language is soo wrong, I got the chills just listening to him. Perhaps I’ve watched too many CSI episodes to just “know” he’s guilty of murder. The only hurrying should be getting that electric chair all fired up for this monster. Now a newborn child will never know its mother…soo sad!

If the court rules he is not guilty, that will be the end of it. Let her parents seek a second opinion from another pathologist.

Even Mutula’s family took the samples to Germany for a second opinion but went mum afterwards

by the way how can pillow suffocation be detected?

Death by suffocation will have the following signs on the body, the bloodshot eyes ( google bloodshot eyes pictures and see) body will have high levels of carbon dioxide in the blood, and the pathologists’ also look for bruising around the nose and mouth ( from the struggle once pillow is placed over the face by the suffocator)and may even collect trace evidence such as hairs and fibres from around the nose and mouth of the deceased.
