The Ugandan Maid From Hell Gets 4 Years in Prison Asks for Forgiveness

Buganda Road Court has sentenced Jolly Tumuhirwe, a 22-year-old maid accused of torturing 18-months-old Arnella Kamanzi in Kampala to a four-year sentence at Luzira prison.

In her ruling, magistrate Lilian Bucyana said despite the fact that the maid pleaded guilty to save court’s time, the act of torturing a kid simply because she was being mistreated by its parents was not right and that “it was a bad decision to transfer one’s anger to an innocent child.”
The magistrate ordered Luzira prison to ensure Tumuhiirwe is rehabilitated so that “when she comes out of prison after serving the sentence, she will be a reformed person.”

While appearing before City Hall Grade one magistrate Moses Nabende, Tumuhiirwe recently admitted torturing Arnella before begging for mercy from parents of the baby.She further asked the angered nation: “It was an error on my part. I request the whole country to forgive me. This will not happen again.” The state prosecutor, Jolly Tushabe, requested court for more time to produce more witnesses and facts to expose Tumuhiirwe’s brutality. Police had also released more investigation findings indicating that the infamous Kampala brutal maid had a history of torturing babies. Speaking at a press conference at the police headquarters in Naguru last month, Police’s Director of Criminal Investigations Grace Akullo said Tumuhiiwre brutalized children of her former employees as well. The suspect was in November secretly filmed battering baby Arnella, a clip that went viral majorly on social media, sparking nationwide public anger.
The graphic footage, which is taken from a camera hidden in the corner of the living room, shows the woman thumping the little girl when she resists feeding and then throwing her to the floor, beating her with a torch, before stepping on her and kicking her. The father of the tortured kid, Erick Kamanzi, welcomed the sentence, saying “it will serve as an example to all maids who mistreat people’s children wherever they are to work.”He also thanked God that his kid is alive and welcomed the guilty plea that “proved to the world that the video was not edited.”

4 years is not enough. The court would have divided her age by 2, which incidentally happened to almost be the toddlers age and then slam her 12 years with hard labour. Oloshi
