"Kenyan Cult Leader Pleads Not Guilty to 191 Child Murders"

Self-proclaimed pastor Paul Nthenge Mackenzie and 29 other defendants pleaded not guilty to the murder of 191 children in Kenya, with bodies found in mass graves in the Shakahola Forest. Mackenzie, who led the Good News International Ministry, preached about a coming doomsday and convinced followers that starvation would lead to salvation. The accused face charges including murder, manslaughter, terrorism, and torture, with investigators continuing to search for more mass graves. Surviving members have recounted Mackenzie's influence, including predicting the COVID-19 pandemic, and authorities are working to deprogram his followers.
