I was widowed at 19: Meet wives of deceased hardcore criminals

Even though she knew her husband was a criminal, Sharon's love for her man was irresistible despite his dark side. Jonte, as she fondly remembers him, was charming, caring, and dependable - attributes that cemented the relationship.

Now widowed with two kids, Sharon lost her husband three years ago. Jonte, 21, succumbed to police bullets in Mathare slums. According to the 23-year-old, had the police spared Jonte, perhaps her husband could be alive and reformed. "They resorted to extra-judicial killing instead and now here I am widowed at a very young age," says Sharon.
