"Makes sense! They must just charge everyone that was in the house and they must prove their innocence individually."

@Penelope_Makala tweeted:

"At this rate, we don't know the truth. All we're asking for is for everyone that was in that house in 2014 must be summoned to court. They all know and saw who did it."

@prow_II shared:

"We all know it’s someone that was in the house that shot him. It isn’t rocket science."

@sebata69 mentioned:

"This is the case where someone who was in the house confesses to murder when they are about to die during their old age because they want to be at peace with ancestors."
