110 people have been confirmed dead in a Kenyan forest, believed to have starved themselves after following the teachings of a cult called The Good News International Church. The church taught that the end of the world was coming and its followers should starve themselves before that time and then they would go to heaven. Children were to die first, then the unmarried, then mothers and the elderly, and then lastly the church’s leaders.  The leader Paul Mackenzie now faces charges of terrorism, murder, kidnapping and cruelty towards children.
