Investigators haven’t given a possible motive in the slaying. In a separate
case on May 19, police said Kinyua beat a man with a baseball bat on Morgan
State’s campus, fracturing his skull and making him lose sight in one eye.
Kinyua was free on $220,000 bail in that case. He is now being held without
bond on a murder charge.
Kinyua, an electrical engineering student, had good grades and had enough
credits to be a senior in the fall, according to university spokesman
Clinton Coleman. He could not comment on the May incident, but noted the
university has a zero-tolerance policy toward violence and a student in such
a situation would likely be suspended or expelled.
No students or faculty had approached the school with concerns about Kinyua,
Mr Coleman said.
In February, Kinyua posted a question on Facebook, asking fellow students at
historically black colleges and universities if they were “strong enough to
endure ritual HBCU mass human sacrifices around the country and still be
able to function as human beings?”
He referred to the tragic shootings at Virginia Tech and “other past
university killings around the country” and warned “ethnic cleansing is the
policy, strategy and tactics that will affect you, directly or indirectly in
the coming months.”
The Maryland attack came a few days after another alleged instance of
cannibalism in Miami where a man in Miami chewed away another man’s face
along a busy highway and wouldn’t stop until an officer shot him to death.
Witnesses say 31-year-old Rudy Eugene growled at the officer and continued
to chew. The victim, identified as 65-year-old Ronald Poppo, a homeless man
who lived under the causeway, was in critical condition and will be
permanently disfigured.
