The break in the case came when the police questioned Casper's second wife, Olivia Oloo.
The cops questioned Olivia after the the Toyota Fielder vehicle said to have been used in the abduction and the eventual murder of Sharon and a Nation newspaper journalist was traced to her.
Olivia was set free after she convinced detectives that the vehicle was being used by her husband at the time of the murder.
This confession may have sealed the governor's fate.
The governor’s other assistant, Michael Oyamo, has been in custody since September 2 and has already been charged with Sharon’s murder.
On Monday, governor Okoth Obado - who is currently in custody in Gigiri Police station - will be taken to court over the murder of Sharon.
