Financial problems might be the cause of these domestic wrangles culminating in death of one of the partners or both.

I just read some comments here and wonder. One of those dead is a security officer who has sworn to maintain the law and when he dies in the line of duty we still condemn him? Kwani nyinyi maubwa, yes, MAUBWA mnataka nini? Aaaaaaaaaaah, nimeshika nare, report me!!!

Domestic fights are usually tough to intervene in.
You separate a fighting couple then after some days you see them leave together leisurely and come back with one loaf of bread chatting warmly and laughing their heads off.
You are left feeling like a goat.
You decide to live your life and then one of them gets maimed or dies and your conscience will never give you peace knowing you should have done something.
