Matthew Musengezi, a prominent car dealer and socialite, has spent the last week in remand prison, a far cry from his luxurious lifestyle.
He’s on trial for culpable homicide, a charge he denies.
The once flashy Musengezi, known for his love of fast cars and expensive champagne, looked worn down in his khaki prison attire.
His life took a dramatic turn on August 9, 2021, when he was involved in a car accident that resulted in the de@th of a passenger in another vehicle. Prosecutors allege Musengezi was negligent and failed to stop or report the accident. He claims the other driver was at fault.
Musengezi’s fall from grace is a stark contrast to his glamorous past, where he flaunted his wealth on social media, showing off his expensive watches, cars, and travels to exotic destinations like Las Vegas, Dubai, and Hollywood.
