Is this the end of Joseph Kony鈥檚 LRA?

Uganda hasn鈥檛 forgotten the violence it suffered at the hands of the Lord鈥檚 Resistance Army. But as a commander is sentenced to prison, some have mixed feelings about the trial.

Has the LRA finally hit the end of the road?

The Lord鈥檚 Resistance Army was once a force to be reckoned with in northern Uganda.

But today their forces are depleted and their leader, Joseph Kony, is in hiding.

On Thursday, one of Kony's top commanders, Dominic Ongwen, will be sentenced by the International Criminal Court.

And yet, for some people back in Uganda, finding some sense of closure is still proving hard.

But why? And what happens now to whatever鈥檚 left of the LRA?
