Kenyan Man Imprisoned for 20 Years in North Carolina for Raping a 79-Year-Old Patient

A 49-year-old Kenyan man in North Carolina has been sentenced to 20 years in prison after he was found guilty of first-degree forcible rape.

Joseph Ngigi Kariuki, who previously worked at a Smithfield Assisted Living Center, was convicted on Thursday by a Johnston County Jury and sentenced to prison.

Kariuki, who was arrested in December 2019, was accused of raping a 79-year-old patient at Brookdale Senior Living on Berkshire Road where he worked as a caretaker.

Officers from the Smithfield police department were called to the facility at around 3 am on December 19th, 2019 to investigate the assault. A supervisor at the facility detained Kariuki as soon as the allegation was made until police arrived.

The victim was suffering from Alzheimer’s disease when she was sexually assaulted but she passed away before the trial took place.

Superior Court Judge Clair Hill sentenced the defendant to serve a minimum of 20 years to a maximum of 29 years in state prison.

“The Johnston County District Attorney’s Office is pleased with the verdict and the sentence imposed. We hope that this helps restore some measure of dignity to this incredible lady whose life was full of such tremendous love. Our office also hopes the victim’s family members find a measure of justice in this outcome,” said Assistant District Attorney Caitlin Slavin.

“We are now confident that this predator will never again be able to harm a member of our community.”

Police charged Kariuki, a resident of Clayton, with second-degree forcible rape and was held in the Johnston County jail under a $100,000 bond.

There are too many KANYAUs in USA, why brother why?
I have said it before, use your bigger head...the small one will lead you in trouble.

Raila/Zetani Ngigi should publish a book describing why he preferred the 79 year old PENGENYE to many single Kenyan ladies living in Clayton.Pole sana bwana,Tamara yaua.

@ Morris Menye, your statement is abit flawed here...You make an assumption that he prefers 79 old women to single women living in Clayton.He obviously used his "small head" to figure out that there is less resistance from an old 79 year old woman with disability than from a young Kenyan able body lady... I will take it that you are being facetious...You suggestion would probably make some sense if the sex was consensual
Anyways, in my opinion,this fellow has amental problem,even though they did not take him to a mental hospital. Seriously,how many 79 year old women in a nursing home would sexually arouse an average man? The answer is found in why you seen porn full of young firm,and shapely "things".

BTC: Before the Berlin Conference of November 15, 1884 to February 26, 1885, no African man could even imagine or dream of raping a 79 year-old lady, old enough to his (Ndugu Kariuki's) grandmother.

ATC: After the conference, anything goes!

Oh no, I can't belive this? I knew this guy who have lived in Raleigh, NC for some years as a very strong Christian and a family man. His mum passed away recently.
I really doubt this, but who knows.
This is why, I rarely trust judicial system when it comes to people of color in the southern states.
May the good lord have mercy on him and his family.

@ SAMco18, if you knew him,that was then,and he probably changed.And did you really know him? Seemingly nice people do commit horrific crimes.
If he is innocent,the truth shall eventually come out. Hopefully soon cause delayed justice is denied justice.

There is a long history of killers that people made similar statements about. I'm sure you've heard them, "he was such a nice young man, he was polite and always kept to himself'. We seldom know what goes on in a person's head until it's to late.

Was he taking Viagra or similar drugs? 80 yrs old cucu in diapers is not attractive to turn on the man.

@ SAMco18:

Mwandishi (SAMco18) anasema ya kwamba, Ndugu Ngigi Kariuki, alikuwa "... a very strong christian and a family man."

Mtu yeyote akikuambia ya kwamba yeye ni mfuasi wa imani ya mwana wa Miriamu, simama halafu ukimbie mara moja ikiwa unaweza. Kwa nini? Wafuasi wa imani hii wanaamini ya kwamba, unaweza kufanya uhalifu katika maisha yako yote lakini, siku zako za kufa zikikaribia, mwombe msamaha mwana Mariamu naye atakusamehe halafu, utakwenda kuwa pamoja naye mbinguni baada ya kufa milele na milele.

Ndiyo sababu wafuasi wa imani hii wana uhalifu mwingi sana. Wanasali/wanaomba kila siku lakini uhalifu unazidi kuongezeka mahali popote walipo.

Foreign cultures are really destroying our people both at home and in foreign countries.
Our men never used to see the nakedness of our grandmothers. This was a taboo. We had mid- wives who used to help women give birth, not men.
The chores of men were separate and well defined in our souls. The chores of women were well defined in our souls. There was no open discussion or competition about those chores but each and everyone knew how to behave towards his family and towards his community. There was no competition among the sexes.
There is alot of suffering, corruption, kidnapping, prostitution, lack of respect towards one another,crimes and all manner of foes and evil in our societies. Jails are becoming a new institution for our people just like it became for our brothers and sisters who were carried to foreign lands as slaves. Blood crying from the grave calling for peace and cleansing of our land.
This cannot be allowed to go on.
Time is calling for us all who are following anything foreign blindly that is negatively affecting our society or not beneficial at all to take time off and reflect and leave such behind.
" An unalysed life is not worthy living".
Let us all recall who we are and act accordingly to save ourselves and posterity from our enemies both within and without.
We should all support any alternative in our communities to what we see today- As the west heads north, we must head south to fulfill our journey.
Any alternative to what we have today!!
" Ee mungu nguvu yetu"!!

@ Anonymous UI, one big take away from your summery is."there was no competition among the sexes". Yes, we were created to complement and cooperate with each other. When you upset that order,things to haywire.
If you have happened to read some of my posts,I have been lamenting on how women are committing scams,and terrible crimes that were in the past a "preserve for men",so to speak. Lines that used to keep us in line have been blurred. Change for the good is good,and pretty inevitable.Its the change for the worst that is killing us.

I do not believe this! I know this guy and this isn't true. How many black people are in prison for years only to be found not guilty of the crimes they were accused of after so many years? Especially the southern states... nope! Not true!

Lenis (not verified)     Tue, 07/06/2021 @ 11:58pm

Huu udaku mtaacha. This is an old story that isn't true. I know this man he can't do that. Do ya'll how many black men are rotting in jail for things they never did? After a very long time they are found innocent? Please stop this kaswende.

OHHHHH NO!! I know this guy very well and I've worked with him. I'M Double sure he cannot do this crazy act. We men foreigners working in this field of Healthcare we need to be very very careful coz host citizens wants to destroy us. So far I know more than 4 men foreigners has been accused of similar acts issues but after a thorough investigation they find out the accuser had bad intentions. Especially if a coworker Americans lady does not like African man things can turn sour. For real I bet that guy something went wrong with lady coworker to accuse him of that act. God will intervene and truth will come out one day. And you the acuser wherever you are hell is waiting 4 you. Joseph be strong in the lord as always. We praying for you. Gosh
