What you need to know about Killing Eve, TV series that inspired Kiambu murders

Whether events in Killing Eve are enough to inspire a relatively young man to murder five people will remain a mystery.

Netizens are still in shock following a recent confession by one university student Lawrence Warunge who admitted that he was inspired by a character in a British TV drama series to kill four of his family members and their farmhand in Kiambu last week. Killing Eve, the film in question, is a cat-and-mouse spy story between an MI6 investigator named Eve Polastri (played by Sandra Oh) and a glamorous assassin known as Villanelle (played by Jodie Comer). The storyline in the TV series centers a dark psychological drama about sociopathy, a feminist procedural, and a British workplace.

The series follows Eve Polastri, a British intelligence investigator tasked with capturing psychopathic assassin Villanelle. In the show, Eve’s considerable talents are being ignored due to the patriarchy, but not for long! When she figures out that the talented assassin taking down big players around Europe, is clearly a woman herself, she finds herself a new job with much larger responsibilities and way higher stakes.
