It's not a matter about being crass, it's about following the correct process. If there are thieves in the SA police department, it needs to be reported. In addition, this is an expensive watch and it probably also needs to be reported stolen for insurance requirements.

It is the job of the police department to notify next of kin, so they failed again.

BIB, There is no evidence that the family took the watch so it is just as likely that the police stole it, which wouldn't surprise me considering the low salaries that are earned in SA. In terms of the family not being searched, if that is true, the fault lies with the police department and an...

1. It it entirely speculation that what was on the phone was related to the crime. It could just as well have been financial information or something personal and entirely unrelated. 2. The fault for this information being deleted falls fully on the SA police department for failing to secure...

Thank you for the link Interested Bystander. I did have a chance to read it and there are a couple of points worth making but I will stick to one main one. Nel is never going to give Oscar a break, that is obvious and this is important - The article says "A second source close to the National...

BIB, now that the SCA has ruled, you're throwing out that murderer label around a lot these days. I don't think I heard you ever say he was "convicted of the negligent killing of a human being called Reeva Steenkamp" when Masipa gave her competent ruling of CH. Let's give time and see what the...

This is not curious in the least. Earlier on this forum, there was someone that asked why the bat sounds weren't reproduced by the PT and the response was that you'd never get the same result because there are now new houses that have been built and the sound wouldn't travel the same way...

The Pistorius family is exercising their right of free speech and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. If they want to put out a story, it is within their right to do it. The Steenkamp family has also signed financial deals with select media outlets to tell their side as well...

BIB, pure speculation here. The police had every right to arrest anyone from the Pistorius family that they wanted to for obstruction of justice and yet they didn't. The fact that they didn't shows that they didn't feel there was a problem here.

BIB I guess this is a the circle of friends Oscar hung out with. Many would in your words, "lie for him." Even Reeva herself hid the text message from the police where Oscar admitted it was him that was responsible for the Tasha shooting. I don't have the exact quote in front of me but it was...

Common sense would dictate that God would have to perform a miracle if God was to directly help Reeva as she was unconscious. On the other hand, if God were to help Oscar, God would be helping Reeva through Oscar's hands. I don't see anything wrong with Oscar asking God for help, when people...

This week, he's a convicted murder. Last week, he was not a murderer but was convicted of the negligent killing of a person. Let's see what April brings before we put a final label on him.

Your comment was meant for Noisy Fan but since when does anyone who disagrees with you automatically become a Pistorian? Surely Noisy Fan is trying to have his own questions answered or ensuring that every avenue is explored to ensure that OP doesn't have to face mob justice. Even if he didn't...

BIB, that's not quite correct, he was delighted when he was found guilty of CH, not murder and at a party with Roux, he said "I don't give a ***** about the sentence. I'm not a murderer". If making the statement highlighted in bold above made him "classic sociopathic", what would not making the...

This would depend on just how frozen his shoulder was. If it wasn't that bad, then there would be no issue for him to raise both of his arms up, perhaps with a small degree of pain. Nel failed to explore this issue to its full extent so we'll never know.

He could very easily have been in shock. This commonly happens after a tragic accident. Just think of how people wondered about aimlessly after 911

It's silly to think that he should have to just give up on life and say that he'll plead guilty to whatever the police decides to charge him with. If only everyone did this, we wouldn't need judges then right, just have the police charge you, judge you and punish you on the spot. People have...

I'm more of the view that when April rolls around, we'll see OP doing the :happydance::happydance::happydance: telling Roux and his defence team, :loveyou:for all the work you have put in on this case. :yourock: No longer will I have to worry about being sent back to :jail: again unjustly as I...

BIB, it's easy for all of us from the comforts of our homes to say that he should have acted in such and such a manner and that this is what he should have done. However, to address this correctly, we need to put ourselves in Oscar's mind at that very moment and look at the situation through...

This is quite interesting. I see Pistorius' chances of succeeding at the CC getting better and better. One of the judges that sits on the CC is Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng. He was appointed by Zuma who as we all know is owned by Pistorius and his family. So we know there is influence here. Not...
