Wambui was brutally murdered by her husband's mistress, Judy Wangui.
Last week, businessman Joseph Kori was released from police custody due to lack of evidence to charge him.
Wangui and another suspect, car hire businessman Micheal Mathenge, appeared before High Court judge Christine Meoli in Kiambu on Tuesday afternoon but the plea-taking was postponed.
Justice Meoli said she will be away from the court from tomorrow and the plea should be taken on Monday next week when it is her criminal cases day.
According to police investigations, Wangui hit Wambui on her head with a pressure cooker nine times. She died of brain concussion, the report concluded, with the skull having been crushed by between two and seven centimetres.
A potential State witness identified as Mathenge said that he went to Wangui’s residence at Fourways Junction at 00:07 on her invitation, almost six hours after Wangui and Wambui Kori arrived there and started arguing over the love triangle involving Joseph Kori.
Wambui was apparently bitter after she found her husband’s photos hanging on the wall in the house with furnishings identical to those in their family home at Safari Park Gardens Estate.
A detective privy to the investigations said Wambui reportedly demanded that Wangui surrenders the logbook of her car — a Mercedez Benz identical to hers — saying she had heard her husband bought her the car.
A fight ensued and a knife that the two wrestled over was among the items recovered at the thicket around the Tatu City area. Police have taken the knife together with other items for forensic examination.
It is then that Wangui, according to Mathenge, rushed to the kitchen and picked a pressure cooker which she hit the deceased with on the head before strangling her with her hands.
The two them proceeded to dump the body and the blood stained murder weapon and evidence.
Now, a poet identified as Albine Kirui has penned a moving poem from the perspective of Wambui's husband, Kori.
In it, he sounds contrite and sorry that his wife is dead because of his infidelity.
Here is part of the poem.
"I was released from police cell,
I went home to face the reality of total emptiness,
I had cried my heart out,
My eyes had shed so much tears until my tear glands could shed no more."
The poet then paints a bleak picture of how Kori's household may look like after the very brutal death of his wife.
"True I was enslaved by lust,
True I thought it was just a fling and nothing more,
I was trapped without knowing.
She planned to kill when she knew I was about to jump ship,
I'm still in shock,
My love is no more."
He concluded, "...I shed tears of love for the mother of my children,
The late Mary Wambui Kori."
