Oscar Pistorius

legalsnizzel and all that

Yep. but he waffled on and on. Did he have to repeat everything that had happened during the hearing.

One other point, won't it prejudice the case when it comes tocourt, with so much detail being presented before the court case.

No. The stuff we have been reading, is no different to what would happen in a bail hearing over here. Difference is, we keep it schtum so a jury can be selected without prior knowledge of the case etc, in SA they have no jury just a judge

That was topical humour.
 
This is going to be fascinating, and seems will hang on the forensic evidence.

The angle of the bulletts through the door (legs on or off)?
The position of the ladders outside?
The position of the gun at which side of the bed (his or hers)?
Just how pitch black was th room, as he apparntly had the verandah doors open?
Why the thre bulletts that hit her were on her right side, when if she was having a wazz she would have been facing the other way?
Why was she fully dressed if she had just got out of bed after a sewssion and was supposd sat on the loo having a pee?
Why lock the door?
How would a burglar have got in with a rottweiler and a pit bull in the garden?
Why carry her downstairs?
Why phone a friend before phoning an ambulance?
and my favourite.If he was awake and went to the balcony how did he not know she had got up and gone for a pee? notice the sound of the bathroom door and the light going on in such a dark place.
WHy did he knee his way in to shoot the burglar, then go back to the bedroom, put his legs on and then go back with the cricket bat?
Why did he not lave th burglar in th bog and just call the police?
How did he know he hit the guy, if there was no scream or shout?
Did she not scream once when he shouted his warnings or the first shot hit her in the arm, or was the one out of the four that missed the first one.?
Just what did the neighbours hear?

Seems to me , the burglar played with the dogs, dragged the ladder over to the window, singing a beatles number, climbed in, put the light on, and then went and locked himself in the bog to have an 'Arry Redknapp!
Oscar, i think Deano has been writing your statements.
 
Oscar Pistorius wins his appeal over bail conditions, strange people South Africans.
 
I've travelled this old world of ours from Barnsley to Peru
I've had sunshine in the arctic and a swim in Tinbuktu
I've seen unicorns in Burma and a Yetti in Nepal
And I've danced with ten foot pygmies in a Montezuma hall
I've met the King of China and a working Yorkshire miner
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of arrogant bastards
Who hate black people

I once got served in Woolies aften less than four week's wait
I had lunch with Rowan Atkinson when he paid and wasn't late
I know a public swimming bath where they don't piss in the pool
I know a guy who got a job straight after leaving school
I've met a normal merman and a fairly modest German
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of talentless murderers
Who smell like baboons

I've had a close encounter of the twenty-second kind
That's when an alien spaceship disappears up your behind
I got directory enquiries after less than forty rings
I've even heard a decent song by Paul McCartney's Wings
I've seen a flying pig in a quite convincing wig
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of ignorant loudmouths
With no sense of humour - ha ha

I've met the Loch Ness monster and he looks like Fred Astaire
At the BBC in London he's the chief commissionaire
I know a place in Glasgow which is rife with daffodillies
I met a man in Katmandu who claimed to have two willies
I've had a nice pot noodle but I've never had a poodle
And I've never met a nice South African.

Because we've never met one either
 
I have just watched a bit of the trial, and so far the biggest argument is whether a witness should speak in English or Afrikaan...
 
The judge has just adjourned the trial because the TV cameras showed a witness who had asked not be shown on TV. I can't help thinking this is being turned into a TV soap opera. A young lady lost her life, and that should not be forgotten.
 
I reckon he hasn't got a leg to stand on.

WTF?
 
Prosecution to call 107 witnesses. This could be a very long trial.
 
Paddy Power are betting on the outcome of this trial. As the father of a daughter - actually as a normal human being - I think it would be difficult to sink any lower than that

Agreed. Hopefully people will not bet on such a thing. Surely it should not be allowed to bet on the outcome of trials.
