Cyril Ramaphosa, Julius Malema, and the rest have not finished decolonializing South Africa just yet. We know because Kelly Smith is behind bars:

A mom who sold her 6-year-old daughter so her skin and eyes could be cut out and used by a “traditional healer” had been sentenced to life in prison in South Africa.

Racquel “Kelly” Smith, her boyfriend Jacquen Appollis, and their friend Steveno van Rhyn were all handed life sentences more than a year after the mysterious disappearance of Joshlin Smith from outside her home near Cape Town.

It could be the apparently mixed race girl’s striking eyes that did her in.

[Smith] admitted to selling her daughter to a traditional healer, or sangoma, for 20,000 rand ($1,100), and said the girl was desired for her “eyes and skin,” a witness told the court.

Eyes and skin like Joshlin’s will be all the more uncommon in the future. But her fate is probably getting less rare:

South Africa has one of the highest crime rates in the world, with soaring rates of child kidnapping.

As moonbattery forces civilization to recede, all manner of horrors will emerge.
