Kevin Carr's Gloves

You'd have a job finding a Kangaroo in Africa you thick bastard

 

Now I rarely stand up for Des but I think he was implying it is a kangaroo court.However this thinking in itself is out of date and also worthy of derision?

No idea why the trial needs a two day break.

The judge needs a shit but doesn't want to give Pistorious a short enough timescale to find out when he goes?

Pistorius having to sell his house to pay for legal costs apparently. Would have thought he was worth a bit more than that.

His lawyers are really dragging it out as well. :lol:

He'll make it all back ( and then some) with the book and film deals. ;)

Big stuff this morning. The judge finally comes to life and rounds on the defence three or four times in regard to lines of questioning. The judges interjections on wordage and the def use of affidavids against the witness throw the def off their stride significantly. Judge at last breaks cover and bears her teeth. Not good for the defence. Witness sticks to guns regarding screams and shots.

If the def can't discredit the screaming then he goes down. Oscar for the first time looks a bit shaken sitting there.

You're missing out the bits where the witness gives evidence that completely contradicts her original sworn affidavid and has to admit she's changed her version of events. It's a complete shambles this morning.

Would feel a bit uncomfortable sending a man down for murder on the basis of eye (ear?) witness testimony, it's so unreliable for many reasons and as much as it's been joked about a bit, I imagine if you had just accidentally shot your girlfriend then the scream/wail upon realising would be pretty high pitched and easily mistaken from a different house to be a woman's.

 

I'd guess the case depends on how solid the evidence about time between shots is more than anything else.

You're in love with him innit?

 

She changed her mind later about wether she saw him walking aroung or not. The other bone of contention is wether the bathroom light was on or not...She stuck to her guns on that...Normal people under pressure mis-remember things and that is taken into account. What's his defence? He didn't warn his girlfriend someone was in the house...Didin't turn the lights on and started blasting away (contrary to his gun license legal justification to use lethal force) through a closed door cause he heard a 'noise'. He might as well move to Hollywood if he gets off this...Top crime writer in the making. ;)

None of it adds up. In situations of perceived danger the first thing you check is if your partner is safe and aware of what's happenning.

  • Revealing text messages between the couple are read out in court by Captain Francois Moller, police mobile phone expert.

One from Steenkamp to Pistorius, sent on 19 January 2013, reads: "I am scared of you sometimes, how you snap at me and react to me"
