RULING
1. I have considered the application for sentence revision.
2. The applicant convict is serving 7 years imprisonment for Manslaughter. The case went to full trial after the convict denied the offence. There is clear evidence that she strangled her husband and hit him with a blunt object until he died; a painful death.
3. The convict is said to be remorseful and rehabilitated. However, a previous life of a person who was said to be sickly was lost by the hands of the ruthless convict. Seven (7) years imprisonment was lenient.
4. I am not satisfied that the applicant convict deserves sentence Revision owing to the seriousness of the offence.
5. The application is dismissed.
6. File closed.
Dated, signed and Delivered at Siaya, this 24

Day of July 2020.
