There have been some up dates on the untimely death of Samuel Wanjiru last sunday. It seems that in fact it was not an intentional suicide. Some reports say that Sammy jumped from the balcony to get away from his wife because he was found cheating with another woman. So it in fact may have been that Samuel was trying to run away from his wife from a domestic dispute and there was a terrible accident. These domestic problems did not start that day though. There was a story from earlier in the year that Samuel had been arrested for threatening his wife with an illegal firearm. It is still not 100% certain that Samuel's death was an accident, but rather a homicide committed by his wife. Chances are though that it was a terrible accident. May Samuel Wanjiru, the skilled, young marathoner of Kenya, rest in peace.
