Sarcasm is used against OPs version repeatedly on this forum. I didn't realise it was offensive?

This guy is clearly a criminal mastermind. Able to act distraught and at the same time deliberately stage the crime scene just minutes after murdering his gf. Then shortly after create a bail statement with a plausible defence that is (at least broadly) consistent with the evidence in the house...

I can't speak for others, but the reasons I do not post anymore are that everytime someone challenged the conventional (on this forum at least) way of thinking, we were labelled "pistorians" who were seduced by OP's fame and were, putting it bluntly, stupid and naive. We were told that no...

Very interesting - I read that silence differently - as in, he was thinking to himself - 'why didn't she say anything' - and overcome by the moment. Something that interests me - and I'd be interested to hear from others - is where OP was actually standing when he shot. I'd always assumed that...

But OP has been crying throughout the trial. He was crying and vomiting when the post mortum photos were shown. I don't understand why those tears were "fake" but these tears are genuine...?

Do you think he did a google search for possible defences after he shot her. Would explain the delay between the shots and calling for help...?

No I didn't. I thought he was guilty of murder.

I suppose we'll now see if all those conspiracy theories about escape to mosambique etc come true...

Does anyone have an ideas about the sudden adjournment, following a v brief bit after lunch (and after seeing Nel and Roux in chambers). All v. odd.

Let's just clear something up here. During a trial a judge will hear inconsistent evidence. The Defence case and the Prosecution case are inconsistent with each other. Heck, even the prosecution evidence, and defence evidence is internally inconsistent. The Judge had to pick one version to...

Completely agree - stood out as a clear error of law

I'm curious - are you saying that someone has actually bribed Masipa. Or just that she was intimidated by OP's money. What do you mean "money talks"?

Look - no point arguing about this. The threads are there to see. You only need to read them to see that people on this forum were not complaining about Masipa's competence en masse like they are now. I am prepared to enter into sensible debate - but it is clear from your posts that you have...

What makes you think I didn't read those threads at the time. They are there for everyone to see. They are not made up with post after post of people questioning her competence. Maybe one or two posts - but your counter-factual account of what happened is bizarre to say the least.

No. People said she was being sympathetic in order to appeal-proof her verdict. No one said she was being sympathetic because she lacked competence. Anyway, one can be a sympathetic yet competent judge. I knew this would happen - people questioning Masipa's competence just because they didn't...

People see what they want to see. No doubt if OP had been found guilty you would have still questioned her competence. :laughing:

Maybe because we will go straight onto sentencing tomorrow - in chambers, Masipa warned Roux that CH would be likely so OP/counsel could prepare for sentencing tomorrow? Just a guess

Not as many as are now. Basically the last month on this forum has been people labelling "pistorians" as being weak minded people seduced by OP's celebrity and gleefully anticipating Maspita cutting him down to size. That hasn't happened and so she is no being labelled as weak herself.

Yes, she wasn't getting it - because the prosecution case was so hopeless. Nel made a big mistake focussing his case on OP intending to kill Reeva. He could have got evenualis had it been accepted that OP knew it was an intruder, but still intended to kill. I think this got lost in the...

Sorry, what? No-one questioned this judge during the trial. People here were gleeful thinking of how this tough, fair judge would come down hard on OP. Now she hasn't suddenly she has been bought, or is biased? Please...
