When the likes of #Ruto are telling the world that Kenya is full of Waganga and wavuta bangi, this guy, Collins Omondi, is so patriotic to an extent he invites @IAmSteveHarvey to Nairobi. Nyanza will always be full of Patriots despite the historical discrimination @Disembe pic.twitter.com/7oY4nJTGbq

Vanessa Bryant Bashes First Responders for "Publicly Disseminating" Kobe's Body

Vanessa Bryant, through her lawyers said she was "absolutely devastated" by allegations that first responders to Kobe's crash site took graphic images. "Mrs. Bryant personally went to the Sheriff's office on January 26th and requested that the area be designated a no-fly zone and protected from photographers. This was of critical importance to her as she desired to protect the dignity of all the victims, and their families," read part of the statement, adding, "It is inexcusable and deplorable that some deputies from the Lost Hills Sheriff's substation, other surrounding substations and LAFD would allegedly breach their duty". Bryant is also demanding for those responsible to be publicly identified and "face the harshest possible discipline". Vanessa lost her husband (Kobe Bryant) and daughter, Gianna Bryant on January 26 in a helicopter crash alongside 7 others.

So you mean to tell me that nobody is questioning why Vanessa Bryant didn't let Kobe Bryant's speak and have them sit far away from her and how she's suing everyone sooooo fast . Money hungry and sneaky . I don't trust her at all. But people see tears and fall for her

The fact that Vanessa Bryant personslly visited the police department the day her husband and daughter died to request that the crash area should be no fly zone and free from photographs is beyond strong.
