A DEATH IN KENYA: ENEMY OF THE STATE -- "Even before his mysterious death, John Kaiser had created a furor in Kenya.

Or did his crusade for justice cost him his life." (PIONEER PRESS) This article examines the death of Father John Kaiser, an anti-corruption activist in Kenya who had accused top government officials of rape and genocide.
A DEATH IN KENYA: A MISSIONARY'S CONVERSION -- "Father, John Kaiser had seen plenty of misery and corruption in Kenya during his years of service there and he was often at odds with the government. But the horrors he witnessed as a refugee-camp chaplain in 1994 were to propel him toward the most dangerous fight of his life." (PIONEER PRESS) This article relays that after witnessing such horrible suffering in refugee camps, Father John Kaiser was compelled to become an activist.

A DEATH IN KENYA: PRIEST OUTFOXED REGIME, BUT VICTORY WAS SHORT-LIVED -- "When Kaiser went into hiding in November 1999 to avoid deportation, the search for the fugitive priest become front-page news across Kenya."

A DEATH IN KENYA: PRIEST WAS DISTRACTED, FEARFUL IN FINAL DAYS -- "His efforts to bring charges against a powerful Parliament member accused of raping underage girls seemed to be crumbing under government pressure. And his long crusade against the corrupt administration of President Daniel arap Moi had put him in danger." (PIONEER PRESS) This article reveals that the pressures that Father John Kaiser faced had begun to affect him profoundly.
A DEATH IN KENYA: EVIDENCE OF MURDER -- "While the erratic behavior of the Minnesota-born priest just before his death and his past treatment for depression suggest that Kaiser might have killed himself, the bulk of the evidence points toward a homicide."
