I would either be rotting in jail or be buried six feet under somewhere. If there is one thing my life in crime taught me is that there can only be two outcomes to crime — death or jail.

I was born 42 years ago at Gwa Kiongo in Milangine District, Nyandarua County. We were only two children, and I am the last born. My mother died when I was only two years old and this saw me miss out on the soft, tender qualities of a mother.
