Speaking from Luzira prison, Jolly Tumuhiirwe told Ugandaonline.net
“My dad in Kabale was very sick and my mom did not have any money. I asked my bosses for some money to send to my dad but they told me that I hadn’t made a month yet and my father was dying, so it kept on haunting me. That is the more reason I referred the anger to the baby but I’m sorry.
"But that madam (Arnella’s mom) is not easy. She used to say that I steal money from the clothes and Eric’s wallet, I eat the babies food…and yet I can’t eat the food, I’m not a baby, those were all lies, so, I was also not happy from my heart.”
“I feel guilty..ok when I was doing it I thought I was disciplining the baby because also the mother sometimes slaps her, I also saw from the mom. The torch I used was small and it’s not hard. I think, I will never do it again”Jolly’s experience of Prison
“It’s not good at all even my fellow prisoners don’t want to associate with me, they want to beat me up. In fact they were saying that I should join them in their rooms, nobody likes me and I’m feeling bad I will never do it again, I ask the world to forgive me and also tell the bosses who have maids to treat them well.”(Pic above: Jolly holds up the top she was wearing when she was beaten by Arnella's father - it has blood stains. I don't think a man should ever hit a woman, but I will make an exception in this case )

But we must all atone for our sins and every action has consequences. So we forgive you but.....
She was very very very wrong but I have seen constant emotional and verbal and even physical abuse meted out to domestic staff on a constant basis. Many people just don't regard their domestic staff as being human. They talk down to them and pick on them 48hrs in a day. In turn you expect them to love you and your children with all their hearts. Hmmmmnnnnnn....sounds like lala land to me. After all they are just as human and can only deal with so much.
She is a heartless person, no matter what one does to u, what gives you the right to maltreat a baby to an extent of beating her, flinging her on the floor like a piece of toy and then step on her....C'mon, that is an excuse, me sha, she go do her jail time and whatever else needed to be done oh...........she no serious
