Kenyan Cult Pastor Paul Mackenzie in Court as Judge Delivers Verdict

A Kenyan judge has begun delivering a verdict in the mass murder case involving doomsday preacher Paul Mackenzie. Mackenzie and 29 of his followers are charged with the murder of 191 people, all but one of them children. His cult is alleged to have forced children to starve to death so that they could "meet Jesus." Mackenzie and the 29 co-defendants have all pleaded not guilty to murder, repeatedly insisting that nobody was forced to die. The case has drawn international attention as one of the deadliest cult-related tragedies in recent memory. The verdict proceedings mark a pivotal moment for the victims' families and for Kenya's justice system as it weighs accountability for the deaths.
