Pastor Ruth Matete has welcomed her acquittal over her husband’s death in an emotional post in which she revisited the events of the last four years and life with the case hanging over her head.

She became a suspect with police moving in to investigate the death and rule out any foul play.
She penned a lengthy posy accompanied by photos of how the story was reported even as she cooperated with investigators and fought the legal battles.
“It’s been four years. Life kind of moved on, but something was still pending. The following pictures are pictures that show my life in the different stages up until where I am today. ” Pastor Ruth wrote.
She recounted losing her husband just four months after wedding with accusations flying amid suspicion of foul play.
“I got married. My husband died 4 months after our wedding. I was accused of killing him. The news circulated like wildfire. Bloggers said the Same thing. All they needed to do was to change the topic of their story so they could own it.” She added.
