Chivhu Woman Who Killed Her Four Daughters Convicted

The woman from Chivhu, Chikomba District in Mashonaland East Province, who beheaded her four children in 2020 to spite her cheating husband, has been found guilty on four counts of murder by High Court judge Justice Munamato Mutevedzi, reported ZimLive.
Emelda Marizani, who was pregnant with her fifth child at the time the crime was committed, murdered all her four daughters to “hurt” her husband Lameck Brande.
In her defence, Marizani argued that she was mentally unstable when she committed the murders.
But Justice Mutevedzi ruled that there was evidence proving that she planned to kill her children long before the incident.
In her statement and oral evidence, Marizani said she wanted to leave Brande “with nothing they had accumulated together”. Ruled the judge:
The accused admits in her statement and oral evidence that she killed her children to spite her husband.
She wanted to leave him with nothing they had accumulated together.
It is very unfortunate she considered her children to be part of their acquisitions.
Marizani and Brande’s marriage was reportedly on the rocks and prosecutors proved the couple had been fighting all the time.
Brande was allegedly involved in an adulterous relationship with Chelsea Bepete.
Marizani confronted Bepete who told her that she was now pregnant from a relationship with Brande.
Bepete is also alleged to have told Marizani that she was no longer loved because she was failing to bear a son.
Earlier on the day of the murders, Marizani had fought with her husband over Bepete’s issue.
She then went home where she poisoned her daughters’ drink before she cut off their heads and set the house on fire.
Marizani then took funeral policy papers for her children and surrendered herself at the police station.
It was established that the up-to-date funeral policy was for her four children which did not include herself and her husband.
The husband was also not aware of the policy.
Marizani gave birth to her fifth child while in jail. Ruled Justice Mutevedzi:
If she indeed wanted to kill herself, she had all the opportunity but she did not put more effort on that as she did with her children.
She gave herself an opportunity to live. She said she looked for a wire to hang herself.
She could have used any other alternative or would have let herself be consumed in the inferno she had started.
She was clearly afraid of the fire. It is our view that she used her children as pawns to spite her husband. She killed them thinking she will then get even with her husband and girlfriend.
The way she explained everything is shocking and it becomes difficult to accept that she wasn’t aware of what she was up to.
We accept that shedding tears is not the only way to express emotional pain. Your actions typify a woman who is heartless.
One can kill her own child but when one goes to kill four, it shows that she was determined to do so.
From the totality, we conclude that the accused failed to prove she was mentally handicapped when she killed her children. The medical evidence was totally unreliable.
It is on that basis that we are convinced that the State has managed to prove its case beyond any reasonable doubt and the accused is found guilty and convicted in all four murder counts.

The judge is also mentally sick. That the woman killed all four is enough evidence that she is mentally unwell and that the judge does not see it shows he is also mentally unwell. We are a country of mentally sick people.
This same system accepted that Prisca Mupfumira is mentally unstable after she robbed NSSA pensioners of US$95 million. These people are living in abject poverty as a result of this theft. Only a system that is run by mentally sick people will not see the impact of Mupfumira's actions.
This same system is busy selling gold not in exchange of industrial machinery or radiotherapy machines or other medical equipment but in exchange of US$ paper money, this is madness on steroids. Other countries are stockpiling gold because of its value and we are selling it in exchange for paper money, only the mentally sick do that.

You are right there and you have corrected Mr Mapfumo's neither good or better idea. Truth must reach to all citizens of this country (Zimbabwe need some like R.G Mugabe for presidential Throne /operation) i believe that Chamisa and Mnangagwa are the feathers of a same bird, both good in speech/languastic but gut no effort in terms of fixing Zim's economy. Now i recall back to Mugabe's true fact/idea "There is no one who can rule this country better than me" his words are ever lasting he said it once and people laughed at him....look today how Zimbabwe is alike. E.d has repeated his moto " I'm a listenimg president" but he chooses not to listen to our cries "we need jobs, better living standards, better hospitals for our health, water, roads, better school for tomorrow neither of mentioned above items matter to him, why can't Mr Mnangagwa fulfill his dream but he also need your support and mine too. Christians believe in forgiveness since Zimbabwe is a nation which strongly believe in Christianity it means that Zimbabweans must forgive our president Mr Mnamgagwa for his mistakes if you all Zimbabweans believe in Christ and follow the bible as well as the ten commandment it will be better to recall it and fulfill God's dream (i.) Love one another (ii.) Don't hold a grudge against your neighbour (iii.) Respect your elders so that your days on earth will be longer. Zimbabwean Christians it's now time to forgive your elder as well your President Mr Emmerson Mnangagwa. Christians you always say Let the buygons be buygons i guess this is the right time to practise that moto "LET THE BUYGONS BE BUYGONS" E.D is also a son of God he diserves a second chance like "Nero AKA Nelson Chamisa" Nero dissapointed you all in 2K18 then why can't you all forgive them both "E.D & Nero" remember the commandment "Respect your elders so that your days on earth will be longer" if you think that i'm joking it will be better to remember the death cause of Sam Mtukudzi, Cal_Vin (that Luveve boy) Nero my Brother he is my little advice "If you want to conquer it will be better to keep your enemy closure to you" what i know for sure is that Zimbabweans will tell you b.u.l.l. S.H.I.R.T. soon after you loose on this year's harmonised election, 2028, 2033 may be even 2038's harmonised election mhhhhh with your behaviour i don't think you will live upto 2038. If you are a good kid it will help you to accept the delimination dialogue who knows maybe it will be your first time & last time to try running, sit on that presidential chair sit, rooming in a white statehouse chances like this one comes once in a while. If you refuse to take my advice you will remember my words in your death bed. You always say you are a Christian then why don't you join hands with E.D,Mwonzora in building a better Nation , in improving economy of Zimbabwean. In 2008 Richard Morgan Tswangirant & Robert Gabriel Mugabe worked together and revived the economy of Zimbabwe upto 2013. Nero if you are a Christian i think you might have forgetten the versey (commandment) which says don't hold a grudge against your neighnour & love one another. Zimbabweans since you all claiming to be Christians why don't you forgive mr. Mnangagwa and give him another chance (bless mr Mnangagwa with another 5 years rulling term) Remember you all celebrated the downfall of the late Mr R.G Mugabe. Anywhere i'm not a Christian but went to a Christian high school #i'm a non believe real heathen but i can forgive a person then what about you a son/daughter of God why don't you forgive and love another son of God Mr Honourable Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa. If you all cannot forgive him then it Zimbabwe is better off without a president. Zupco was brought back to roads by E.D At least he offer us all with electricity power which last up to 6-9 hours (8pm-4am) at least he is a trying president. Then what does Mero give the pple of Zimbabwe #nothing nothimg at all but busy mocking the President Nero's words "You can rig election but you can't rig the economy" lastly Chamisa is a loosing candidate i believe that he is not the right candidate to Challenge mr Emmerson Mnangagwa for presidential throne/reins. If you all believe that Chamisa is a super hero why did he fail to proove it to you all that Zanu Pf had rigged the election. Chamisa can rule this country soon after recruiting millions of Zimbabwean youth (for Ccc military)

Don't judge Chamisa because he hasn't been in the state house.
your comment is bigger than the article itself and nothing sensible you spoke about.

wat a lengthy comment. It's is to long to be sensible. My grandfather used to say a whole newspaper like this when he wanted to tell me that he worked for Smith. It is very **** to type 8000 characters for a two line story. Chamisa, Tsvangira, Mugabe, Jesus and God in one comment yet we are commenting this emotional chivhu story.
