A 20 year-old man from the United States, Matthew Lane Durham, has been convicted of sexually abusing children at a children’s home in Kiambu County, Kenya, where he was volunteering. Durham was tried in a court in his home state of Oklahoma in the United States and was found guilty of seven counts of molesting children at the Upendo Children’s Home. Durham is one of several foreign volunteers in recent years who have been accused and convicted of sexual abuse of children living in institutions.
