It is the Defence's turn to present their closing arguments. Let's hear what they say.

From the article Tortoise linked above: "Interjecting, Salie-Hlophe said Susan and Jason's mistress had been in phone contact around 07:00 that day. Van Niekerk said it may not have been Susan who sent those messages from her phone." If the Judge believes that Susan was still alive at 07:00...

The Judge intervened a lot. I got the feeling that she is leaning in the direction that Susan hanged herself, as she came to the realisation that her marriage was over. LVN stated that Susan was a fighter, loved her daughters, had many reasons to live etc. But with the evidence presented in the...

Kathleen Zellner is putting pressure on those persons of interest who seem to have something to hide, hoping that someone will crack and spill out the truth. I believe that is unlikely to happen. Whoever committed this crime has managed to keep the truth to themselves for so long. Kathleen needs...

I would like to add my thoughts here. I believe that the person who killed Teresa had a previous connection to her, and was probably stalking her. I cannot imagine that someone would commit such a horrible crime just because she bared a resemblance to women found on their computer. I have seen...

So, his former mistress is a witness for the state? Very interesting!

Thanks for the link Manny8171. Apparently the couple's daughters were aware that their father was cheating on their mother. He also wanted an "open marriage" but Gill tried to make their marriage work. Sounds a lot like Susan Rohde; a wife cannot accept her husband's "needs", so she has to get...

This one is taking too long...

What a sad ending... RIP Jeff.

As the time passes I think that Jason will walk away... Very dissapointed with the State and LVN. I expected so much more.

Yes, indeed Dr. Loftus, CPR was unsuccesful because Susan had been dead for quite some time. And if I remember correctly, it was Jason's colleague who tried to resuscitate her, Jason was doing nothing to help.

Susan wore a watch too. It is on a strap.

I have been thinking about the similarities between this case and the Oscar Pistorius case. What do both cases have in common? A female dead in a bathroom. Both couples went to bed after an argument. (although Pistorius denied this). Both women were silent and almost invisible for a period of...

I just realised that the trial has been postponed until 8 August!

Thank you Tortoise. It was inappropriate to post that photo of Susan, out of respect for her family and loved ones. I was so passionate to uncover Jason's lies that I did not think I was hurting those that loved her. I am truly sorry. Regarding the trial, I was not able to follow the...

I do not think JR will be acquitted, I have faith in the judge. She is serious and in controll. She does not accept BS. If the judge was named masipa, I would feel otherwise.

If Susan had the gown on when she hanged herself, then it must have been soiled with faeces/body fluids. The absence of such evidence indicates that she did not die wearing the gown.

Thanks for the reply JJ, I have no doubt that JR will appeal the sentence because he will be found guilty. (IMO) Things are not looking good for him, he looks really nervous today. Dr Perumal has conceded that manual strangulation cannot be ruled out, as opposed to his testimony in the beginning...

Is VDS going for a mistrial? He sure complains a lot! He accuses the state for „character assasination“ although he is the one that called the most biased witness so far, Dr Panieri-Peter?

Perumal refers to the body convulsing while dying, causing the line of the ligature to blur slightly while hanging. That's total nonsense imo. If the cord is sufficient to suffocate, it will pinch tight to the throat and there'll be a single very clear line. #Rohde Nick van der Leek @HiRezLife |...
