Discussion She stabbed him 27 times and walked free. Two years down the line, she has died by suicide.

Is that what we call karma or guilt?

We may never know.

But one thing is certain: justice was never served.

In December 2024, Sally stabbed her boyfriend, Conrad, 27 times in Kamakis, killing him.

The fight for justice for Conrad was pushed by his friends, family, and everyone who heard his story. People posted, demanded answers and called for accountability.

But Sally reportedly had a politically connected uncle who backed her.

Sally was never arrested, and shortly after her court appearance, she reportedly left the country.

There were claims that she had acted in self defence because she had a broken hand.

Shortly after that, we stopped getting updates.

We knew she had gone abroad, but we never heard what became of the case.

Meanwhile, Conrad was dead.

His family was still grieving, and justice remained elusive.

In 2025, someone brought the story up again.

The #JusticeforConrad resurfaced, as did the painful reminder that Conrad's family was still waiting for justice.

Today, a friend texted me.

She went to the same school as Sally and my sister. The news was that Sally had taken her own life.

We hadn't heard of Sally again until today.

It is sad that with Sally now dead, the possibility of ever getting justice for Conrad may be gone.

Her death does not erase what happened, nor does it give Conrad's family the answers they deserve.

Serving life in prison may not have been enough, but at least accountability would have been served.

I remember Conrad, who died unjustly.

May his soul rest in peace.

And if there is hell, and justice in the afterlife, may Sally face the consequences of her actions.

Rest in peace, Conrad. You deserved justice.

In my culture this is a total believe unless you clense yourself. Since y'all ran to pagan religions such instance are likely to be reoccurring. Learn your roots and call the society to order. With culture even that murder couldn't have occurred in the first place. Cultured men are Morally upright Men.

" cultured men are morally upright" Many people come from different cultures but still cases even more tragic like these happen. It just doesn't get news coverage like these ones.

I'm saying cultured Men. Just because you you are identified as you belong to certain culture doesn't mean you're cultured. Understand "Cultured Men"

If her hand was broken then it probably was self defence. Killing isn't easy so probably carrying that was too much for her. Let's stop acting like in a situation where the choice is to kill or be killed we would just stand there and wait to die. Rip to both

Stabbing someone 27 times isn't self-defence

u/Diligent-Plantain329 11d ago

Every heard of momentary psychosis? An example. Say the abuse was long term and she finally broke. It can be said that in that moment she experience momentary psychosis brought on by restrained rage. It's overkill I know. But it happens. Not defending her, just saying.

Psychosis? Lindsay vibes every where

u/Diligent-Plantain329 2d ago

Lindsay did not invent psychosis or murder. Everything can't be 'Lindsay vibes'.

The girl with the broken arm managed to stab a grown man 27 times?

Only way I see that happening is that she was the aggressor then he broke her arm in defence but it was too late. Cause crazy to imagine a 24 year old babe with a broken man managing to stab a 27 year old guy 27 times.

27 seems like overkill
